Beta64 - Rayman Origins
Вставка

- Before Rayman Origins, I didn't exactly play a whole lot of Rayman games. In fact, I really only played them over at my friend's house once and a while when we hung out. Fast forward years later, though, in 2011 when Rayman Origins was released. Those beautiful graphics and amazing gameplay couldn't keep anyone away! But even though this game is indeed incredible, did you know it was going to be even better? After all, it was going to have a very deep plot that spanned back to the original Rayman.
I hope you enjoy learning all about it!

Just wanted to point out that the Magician's name, "Ales Mansay," is pig-latin (the language the characters in Rayman Origins speak) for "Sales Man."
Pigs Latin is the whole language in the game, right?
*sales man*
@@Dommbuscus so that’s the language they speak
Akesnay oilyay ales mansay lol

GOD I know this video is like six years old, but the fact that you mentioned the unused nymph being known as Wendy Weather is insane to me! I suggested that name way back on a deviantART fan group, I honestly didn't expect it to stick
I liked the original plot better. With his actual origin.
same.
+Mudkip971 Liked the idea, but not what they did to Rayman himself.
Him acting like a complete lunatic.
+Mudkip971
I prefer the new one.
But what I really prefer is the new graphics, they're much more colorful and alive than the first trailer
+Mudkip971 same i liked the plot too
+FierceRagnar Agreed. In this storyline, I like to believe he went insane during the whole rabbid thing
"Helena Handbasket"
I've never played this game but good lord, I love that name
Callie Melton o
There are also Nymphs named Edith Up, Anetta Fish, and Holly Luya. I wish I could be that creative with names.
Yessss

Wait, wait, wait, wait...
They showed THE ENDING OF THE GAME in an E3 Demo? What the hell?
Yea, they did the same thing with Legends for some dumb reason.
I believe this part wasn't supposed to be the final level but the whole storyline of the game got removed for some odd reason.
It's not about the destination, it's about the journey. Have fun playing the game, challenging yourself and your friends instead of being concerned about the story. They wanted this to be inherently fun, and not forced fun. Even if this comment is as old as my cat, just had to put that out there.
@@M3KAI5ER44 gameplay isn't the only important thing.
If you play the game and you don't know what happens next, it creates suspense and emotions, making it better (at least for me) but if someone saw that clip before buying the game, they would be most likely very disappointed, because what's the point of doing something if you already know what will happen?
Same thing happened with Doom Eternal, where they released a trailer that showed part of the final boss’s intro cutscene at the end.
Fans were *not* happy about that.
Why is that chest there?
Wow, the original intended story is actually pretty cool, it's a shame it was cut.
Probably had to cut it due to the fucking fans in the day. Shame, really.
Undetermined Thing At least Ray-Fans aren't that whiny, unlike *coughs* Sonic Fans.
@Mateus Miranda Pereira rayman is dead actually,they didn't care that much of their mascot anymore
@Junpei you know what I think Rayman had a good run and died off (if you don't count the mobile games or Rayman legends challenges but meh) without horrible games and by horrible I mean dead rising 4 levels of horrible. But it was my first ever videogame on the PS1 so I will always have a good memory.
He came back in Sparks of Hope.
A man....wait no a vegtable....,aha a thingamajig
it said that when I read this comment
It's a completly unusable thingamabob.
Ur profile fits with the comment
True dat
Dark Rayman is my inner demon becoming something I love
It always confused me as to why they removed the original story. It was way better than the final story.
Plokster what story 😂 it was a bunch of random bs i was so confused in the end
Plokster it sort a has a story
Saving it for Rayman 4? (PLEASE UBISOFT)
the story was so hidden in the final game, that you had to meticulusly search for it.
Plokster THERE IS NOE STORY
A brilliant game which not many people seem to talk about, Rayman Legends is even better.
I would've never heard of this game if not for Nintendo Power, an amazing magazine that has since ceased production :( Thanks to the cover feature for this game, I got this masterpiece for Christmas and Legends two years later.
@@masona.5631 switch xd
Serpico's Beard legends is not better
@@mikemeyer5973 I like them both a lot but i prefer legends.
Mike Meyer why do you have to say their opinion is wrong? Can’t we all have mutual opinions instead of legends isn’t better... that’s saying that his opinion is invalid... like, legends is better, in my opinion, because there are much more solid, friendly controls and more inventive bosses.
I don't really know how many times I've watched this video, but it's great. This video deserves the attention of all Rayman fans because it is informative and explains many facts that some people may not want to search for
I'll be honest: Rayman Origins is a decent game in my book, but if the original story and most other cut content were in the final game, I would've liked the game even more.
Game play wise it was good
Decent is an understatement
Rayman Origins and Legends are my two favorite art styles in gaming I also love the fluid animation
I was a bit let down when the trailer hinted to a backstory, but we got nothing of that in the final game. The gameplay and music is perfect, but it would be great to have some story as well. Even just adding them as readable files in the game would've been enough. But thanks for sharing this info, knew nothing about it, despite being really hyped up when this game was announced.
It's weird because the game IS good but it still feels like a hollow shell of what it could've been.
A man.
-A man.- _No wait, that's not it._

-A vegetable.- _No, that's not it either._
_I know!_
A thingamajig.
Awesome stuff! I've always wanted to hear someone talk about the origins that never were.
Hi cartoongamer8000
arguably one of the greatest platformers ever. of all time.
its that great, yes. graphics and oh man what level design!! after my heart
Really is such a shame they cut all of that story. I remember being really stoked to see Mr. Dark return.
But despite that, anyone still reading this, if you haven't played Rayman Origins, DO IT! It's an absolute delight to play regardless.
Wow, I knew none of this. Awesome video!
+NachozRuleCP Thanks so much! I'm glad you learned something new about the game. :)
+Beta64 Awesone sauce, I love your videos. But a little heads up, Ubisoft's pronounced like You-bee-soft.
Gabriel Adrian Really? I never pronounced it that way. You learn something new every day, I guess. Thanks!
***** No problem. BTW since I got you attention, can you do a beta 64 on the Jak and Daxter series?
Me too
Mr. Dark's origin was originaly gonna be reviled.
There was also gonna be a tetris cameo as well. I remember seeing that in the original trailer :p
It's a shame all this got cut. I was pretty damn excited seeing that shadow of what I also assumed to be Mr.Dark in the background. I was disappointed getting up to the last guy and just seeing it was a regular Teensie that looked like him. Usually things get cut due to time restraints, but it looked all laid out and ready to go from here. My guess is that they felt the plot might have been a bit too dense for younger children, who I'd like to think would be the target audience of this game besides long time Rayman fans. Now don't get me wrong, Origins is a FANTASTIC game, but it could have been even better if they'd just stuck with what they had. Kind of like what happened to Rayman 4/Raving Rabbids...only that pissed me off so much more as a kid when I found out it was completely different than what Nintendo Power showed...
that intro tho
😂
1:31 when he said "LittleBigPlanet", a swarm of memories came rushing into my brain. Man, I miss the simpler days.
Same
I have all the games of lbp
Wow. My favorite game have gotten so much story cuted. It's still amazing and I would never forget about it.
This makes me sad to see such a cool concept go. I love both new Rayman games, but I do wish a story was more prevalent.
Why does everyone still keep blaming the Rabbids for "ruining the Rayman series?" You got what you wanted- The Rabbids no longer appear in the Rayman series and have been separated into their own series (Rayman Adventures doesn't count because those were just cameos), and Rayman returns with new games that are selling much better than the Rabbids series (as of 2014, the Rayman series sold $25 million units, while the Rabbids sold $14 million), and the newer Rabbid games didn't sell as well as the older ones.
Wait the rabbids are still here
к¡zz - Brawl Stars well ok then
@Kizz_ i hope a rayman raving rabbids sequel comes out in 2021 called rayman raving rabbids 4 where rayman kills all the evil rabbids that gone to crazy all the time
Finally someone who realizes this! Just let us Rabbids fans be happy! (I am a fan of both franchises but I think that Rabbids are overhated just for being related to the Rayman brand rather than from being kind of annoying).
It's like how people said skylanders ruined spyro, but after the 3 game they stopped including spyro ( well they did have a mini, but that doesn't really count) and he was an npc in imaginators
Great video! I remember watching those first trailers A LOT before the real game came out. Still kinda wish the game turned out the way it was portrayed originally, but i think the end product was great too!
I've noticed many people forgot about Rayman 2 and its villian, Razorbeard and the robot pirates.
Would be a good oportunity to bring him back, although they used to scare me as a kid so I doubt kids today would cope with it. Being most scary games are toned down from the 90's, if remade or still ongoing.
The Robo-Pirates did a swell job at being an encroaching force bringing ruin to Rayman's world. When the game starts out we are immediately greeted by dark skies in which floats a mechanical pirate ship. We are told then shown it's full of enslaved denizens of Rayman's world under the command of. Even with his short stature the characters and world are strongly affected by his commands. Rayman's world is largely under control and near the end of the game the slaves the pirates taken by pirates has grown massively. As much as Rayman may bother Razorbeard his army still marches and does a lot of damage. When Rayman gets too close, Razorbeard
finds the best machine to kill the boy with and faces him.
Compare all of that with, The Magician/Ales Mansay. What little of a plan he does have is repeatedly being countered without him having much of an impact on the world and has to create a new plan. In Origins The Magician just had a group of lackeys and some machines. Then when Rayman reaches him he runs off. No last stand Razorbeard's Grolgoth. In Legends he never faces Rayman himself and still doesn't present himself as a threat to the world.
My cousin only knows about Rayman Origins and legends until I got the Dreamcast and show them Rayman 2 him only being 14 and his sister 8 said they weren't ready for the darkness of rayman 2
Yall have nice images but way too many words
They can't be brought back because in the ending polokus erased all of them
Man, I was looking for that script for ages a year or two back, but this was really neat! Finally, I understand the plot even more.
I remember reading about the original idea for the game's plot in Game Informer, back before the game came out; it made me really excited for it (along with the fact that it was going to be a platformer)! The game still turned out great, but I was always disappointed that they scrapped most of the "Origins" from "Rayman Origins".
it's dissapointing that we lost such a ravelling story from origins! imo, if they had been able to keep the script and story intact the way it was, Rayman could have finally turned back not only to his original platformer roots, but it could have re-sparked the love of the stories that followed Rayman in both rayman 2 and rayman 3. how i wish they could have kept the story more intact. as it is, rayman origins is just a rebirth of the platformer, and a recreation of a once awesome character into a wacky, goofy, lazy hero.... kindof a bummer.
Yea, Michael killed his creation
+Matthias Rivadeneira That's a stretch if I ever saw one. Origins is one of the best games in the whole series (it's better than the first 2 games easily)
Evan/Odd Its gameplay is fine, just it feels a bit off from even the 3rd game (and for some reason people hate it, I would like to play it if I didnt have a way to get it on PC)
Matthias Rivadeneira It's free on Uplay right now.
Evan/Odd 3?
let me just say i look forward to any beta 64 episode no matter how long it takes, so take it easy we love your content remember quality over quantity and i hope you keep up your amazing work
+ammar mahmud You're the best! Thank you. :)
+Beta64 thanks
can you do the beta of the gba port of monster inc please
I'm really glad you did a video on this, I thought I was the only one who noticed all of those weird changes during development.
You pronounced "Lums" correctly! It really is pronounced (Luh-ms)! The characters themselves pronounce it that way in the previous Rayman games!
+Mike Anthony They recently said it's looms, like illumination.
+Tomek Chmiel Rayman 3 says otherwise.
Michel Ancel says otherwise.
+Tomek Chmiel Every Rayman game that Lums have been in up till Rayman Origins have been pronounced as "Luh-ms", I personally don't see why they changed that to "Looms" honestly.
Because they're French, haha
They really captured the spirit of the first Rayman game with this one. I was laughing all the way through it.
So... Mr Dark = Darth Vader, Magician = Kylo Ren?
Good job finding a bunch old parts of games this is very interesting hopefully will do Rayman Legends or other games i don’t even know about so keep up the good work
Montpellier is pronounced something along the lines of "Mon-Pelly-Ay". Brilliant video though, Rayman Origins is one of my favourite games ever, and it was nice to see a Beta64 on it. Very unexpected :D
Man revisiting this video is just wild man, I would watch this on repeat for hours, mainly because as a kid this was my first game I got on our 360 and I was..interesting in the weird limbless being on my screen..to say the least.
great!
No
i almost forgot about this channel its been so long and you were the first youtuber i ever subed to
18:35 I love how the nymphs are all busty and thicc. :D
Oh man. A rayman origin story would have been awesome!
His Impression of Strong bad sounds like when Joel was sarcastic on the Bootlegs

What do you mean used to? I still go everywhere.
I NEED TO GO TO KOKOMO.
+MystPlayesGames He worships the devil.
this game was my childhood
That's why is his childhood
Are Rayman fans called Rayfans?
Or Fanmans?
Lol that's what I called my old RAYMAN Instagram account 😂
Nitro Indigo Rayfam.
no we are called furys
Yes.
It’s been another 8 years time to wake up again rayman lol
"They follow orders. Nothing bad can come of that, right?"
Bruh.
Man, I still love that intro. Keep up the awesome videos!
Beta 64 will you do the beta of rayman legends
...Have you even seen Legends? It's an entirely new game dude. And a fantastic one at that, one of, it not the best 2D Platformer ever made.
@zareh1234 studios how much iq do you have then?
@zareh1234 studios
Your IQ can't be high if you're confusing a sequel with a port.
@zareh1234 studios bruh moment
@zareh1234 studios it ain't no port, it just has the origin levels wich are locked, it has other worlds you have to unlock (except teensies in trouble)
You can see the King Lum awake in the final version when he's in a bubble.
I want to play this game even more!
Looking at the title now makes me think of a collection of the first 3 Rayman games, akin to Sonic Origins.
It would be really cool if you talked about the beta of Crash Twinsanity...
When you think about it, it’s still in beta...
I played the beta at Ubisoft Monptellier long time ago, I remember when you died you turned into a ghost. My dad is Frédéric Condolo btw. He told they got inspired of Kirby Epic Yarn as well. He programmed entirely the app and the algorythm to make 2D models come to life in 3D.
4:11 Oh, those crazy French and their sexual humor!
4:46 Your impressions of the Homestar Runner characters are spot on
4:09 Rayman. you sly devil
The game manual actually does explain Rayman creation. (Im writing this from memory) He originally was going to have limbs, but zombie chickens (enemies from previous games) stole some of the lums required for his creation, so the nimphs were not able to give him limbs.
So much waisted potential this game COULD of had. Don't get me wrong, this game was cleverly crafted in some of the most finest in platforming mechanics of it's genre, but it could have been soooooooooooooooo much more. It probably doesn't help that Ubisoft is kind of digging a convuluted grave with some of their choices in recent years.
What Ubisoft needs to do (and what Michael Anvel (creator of Rayman)) need to do is make a third game and implimemt all these features, so much could be added, and so much can be improved, like how about adding a different character besides ANOTHER Teensie, like why not Li the Fairy, she's awesome
The intro, no matter how many times I see it, I always see something new
Well, it's been about 21 years since Rayman was born... How about do a Beta64 Episode on the original Rayman (The Jaguar, PS1, PC, etc..)
Aww I'm really sad we didn't get the origin story I'd love that
Holy shit, I never noticed that Mic at the beginning.
I had no idea so much was cut, I think it would've had the deepest story in a 2D platformer if they kept all that. Not that what they had was super deep but it would've been deep story in terms of a platformer standard.
I like how he mispronounced "Lums" throughout the entire video, and the one time he pronounces correctly, he apologizes lol
according to the manual "loom" is actually how lum is pronounced, as in "illumination"
That's how they're pronounced. It's a French game.
@@cupriferouscatalyst3708 i'm french and he's mispronouncing hard, but it's okay.
love the home star runner bit at 4:50
We need a new open world 3D Rayman game.
It's gonna have ubisoft towers. I just know it!
Lugbzurg you realize Watch Dogs 2 doesn't have towers right? And Far Cry 5 the series that invented the Ubisoft towers also doesn't have them.
This is one of those times I wish the game was what it could have been, rather than what it is.
Wait, what... Did they actually put the final level of the game in the E3 demo ? And also the final boss in the first trailer ?...
MegaNormali 96 *no 9ommm
2 years later and it still kills me to know that Rayman Origins was going to be WAY better. And all we got was an amazing game.
13:43 King Lums are wide awake when appearing in a bubble.
Big Momma is in the final game, just as the very final boss as a reward for beating the marathon-like chest stages. You can also fight her in Rayman Legends, but without the Land of The Livid Dead stage surrounding her lava bath.
i think that lum king that isnt sleeping at 13:48 is used in the game . i think i saw him in one of those bubbles with lums inside of them
13:48 That unused graphic of the King Lum actually IS used, just not for regular King Lum pickups dotted around levels. It’s used when a King Lum pickup is seen in a bubble.
keep up the great work :)
I'd love to see a Rayman 3 backstory of the game creation!
This game is beautiful! T.T
I have been waiting so long
I keep calling them Lums with a short "u", even after hearing the correct pronunciation.
Wow GREAT video, thank you for uploading!!
10:29 you forgot that the flying bombs after exploding split in to 8 fireballs but in final it splits only 5 fireballs
Btw very nice vid
Details, details.
I just got rayman origins like a few days before you made this video of it in March 26 of 2016 I got it at gamestop and i heard of rayman origins in December 19 of 2013 after discover the rayman series for the first time staring with rayman legends in October 5 of 2013.
Nostalgic... Wait I have the game here :V
Best Rayman game for me! Rayman Origins is without a doubt my favorite game of all time.
"Ubisoft Mont-Peel-Yer" is the most wrongful pronounciation ive heard yet
At least he didn't pronounce the "t".
Roruman True! Can at least give him that lol
Mocksie I asked myself where Monpeilyir was... and i'm french 😐
The worst is Nitro rad saying it Mont-Peel-iea
Oh man! I just noticed Billy Hatcher in the intro! I love that game!
So... rayman's species is thingamajig?
pretty much
Never was a fan of Rayman, untill Origins!! Now I can't stop playing Origins, Jungle Run, Fiesta, Adventures and Legends :p
So essentially instead of expanding on the Rayman Universe, they simply rebooted him again and presented it in a way like this is the first time we've seen this character. Delightful :/
+Christopher Hubac Sadly
It's not like the Rayman games were completely consistent with their worlds, lore, and tone anyway.
They seemed to redo Rayman every game.
+Christopher Hubac Rayman has really only been quasi-rebooted about twice (Rayman 2, Origins). Rayman 2, 3, and Raving Rabbids are similiar enough to fit in the same world. Rayman 1 and Origins are the odd ones out and one can be chalked up as first installment weirdness while Origins was intentionally designed to be closer to early Rayman.
Very informative, thank you!
Ubisoft suck today. When 3d became the new popular graphics what did Ubisoft do?
They didn't make Rayman 2 to cash in, no they made an entirely different new game with a whole new story and character randomly to get comfortable with it before pushing their big mascot into a 3d game. Where is that care today?! They don't test risks or make new games at all
What a darn shame, now I realize we were so close to another dark Rayman game, but no these big companies just love holding your hand and making these experiences as easily digestible and friendly and most importantly as EASY as possible, what a shame..
Do a beta on the first spyro game!
Holy Crap! Rayman would have had an awesome plot and game play! If only this had happened it might have had an awesome effect on other games and we could have gotten so much more from other games.
the original story was better
why the fuck did they change it
Because uh there Ubisoft
but atlest the games good and fun
Time Constraints, or so I've heard.
What a coincidence I was listening to music from this game the other day
5:28 Waluigi took a tad to many mushrooms.
4:48 a homestar runner reference? you just earned yourself a subscriber
So if they changed the whole story for this game, they could do the same for Paper Mario: Color Splash??
+Kaui M. www.change.org/p/nintendo-rework-paper-mario-color-splash-into-a-traditional-paper-mario-game
Dick Gumshoe Yes, yes yes yes.
Kaui M. If I remember correctly, there's another petition pretty similar to this one too, so with at lest 2 petitions, they'll probably finally listen to us!
+Dick Gumshoe no
www.change.org/p/nintendo-cancel-paper-mario-color-splash
This explains so much. I thought this game didn't have a story.
