    I just realized something: in the game intro, Mr. Dark is portrayed looking through binoculars. in the level select, everything is viewed through what seems to be a pair of binoculars... Dark has been watching you the whole time.

      Dark Souls has a much steeper learning curve if it's your first time trying one. Also neither come close to being the hardest games out there.

      @@187Wretched it took me like 10 days to beat every single souls like game by Fromsoftware (individually) and i'm not even close from beating Rayman 1. I mean... Dark Souls or Bloodborne or Sekiro are hard but quite fair games... Rayman 1 is just sadistic... Popping enemies randomly, multiple attacks in extremely narrow areas that forces you to be milimetrically precise to dodge them, very weird and fast platform movement patterns...cruel live system that obliges you to ration your death count or beggining the whole sick levels from the start... Rayman is actually one of the hardest games out there, and even though Soul like games are popular because of difficulty there's no even point of comparison, Rayman can be labeled as unfair and machiavellian.

      @@hidude1130 well, how about giving Rayman Redemption a shot? It's a remake/reimagining of the original, made by one person, during 3 years. It has new levels, more content, new worlds, and a better learning curve, as in "Now you won't lose half of your lives on Allegro Presto!". The game has better level design overall, and it's a lot more fair.

  • @selbi182
    @selbi182 8 лет назад +70

    This game simultaneously colored and ruined my childhood. Like you, Moskito ruined everything. Until I became older, beat that guy, and was able to advance all the way to the apparent end. Also because there's a code to give you 10 continues that you could use every time you're at the continue screen. And I got there *so many times*.
    It was only then that I realized you need EVERY SINGLE CAGE. No continues in the world could help me with that, as some of them are literally impossible to get without exploits, cause there are some problems in the PS1 version.
    I have not yet beat this game legit to this day. Got a level code for the final stage, and it's freaking sweet. Such a shame that it's blocked off by such a cheap game design decision.

    • @LunarRoot
      @LunarRoot 7 лет назад +13

      Getting all the cages is quite the challenge, I agree, but I have played this game on the PS1 and, as far as I'm aware, it's totally possible to legitimately beat it without resorting to any kind of exploits. Unless there are differences between copies for the same platform... But the one I had was just fine.
      Yes, getting to know that I needed to break all the cages was quite disappointing at first to me too. But looking back at the overall experience that I had with this game, it was a good exercise in perseverance. Also, personally, I think that freeing all the Electoons gives an unusually heroic touch to this game, and the final encounter with Mr. Dark became way more epic after struggling with the rest of the stages for about 3 years.

      I completed the PS1 game without cheats.

    I definitely know what you mean. I also have the PS1 version of Rayman 1 and it took me several years to finally get to the end. I don't find it very hard anymore after playing it a few hundred times or so, but it's still not exactly easy.

    Cleared it with cheats and eventually without cheats as 3 year old in 1996.

    Man me and my sister loved this game when we were in elementary school but it was so hard. We would get stuck on so many levels. I don't remember whatever happened to the game but I probably scratched it like I did with all my games

    0:22 Wrong. That's a Rayman 2 port.

    Now I know why when I booted this up on my DSI, I never got to use the hairlecopter ability in the start of the game.

      Most people tend to be nostalgic over the game release, not the release of a review.

    Having played the game, for my whole life, on the PC, I can wholeheartedly agree. Just by seeing the title, I agree. I didn't even need to play it on the playstation to know it was hard. You can not beat this without cheats. Fortunately that's probably what made me so apt to playing 2D platformers.

    What's the music from 8:20-8:50? I know it's in a video game, maybe Mario? I can't seem to remember!

    Does anyone know the background music that plays at 8:20. Been trying to find it for awhile now.

    Rayman 1 is fucking hard as nails. The video title isn't much of an exaggeration. Such a shame that a game with such beautiful visuals and music is so dickish in its level design.

    Fun Fact: Looking up wikipedia shows that there basically isnt a connection and there is about as much info on the characters as you get from playing the games themselves, AKA Not much.

  • @FrameRater

    Rayman DS is actually a port of Rayman 2, not the original. Also the game was designed for the Jaguar, also meaning it was the first iteration of it. I'm sure I'm just restating what hundreds have probably commented here, but still.

  • @HansPeter-iv9ck
    @HansPeter-iv9ck 5 лет назад +6

    So you have finished Darksouls huh ? Puh get on my level noob ! I finished the original Rayman without cheats.
    "Oh if that "i finished it" part were true.....it isnt." The game finished my controllers but thats about it. :x

  • @toymage4144

    I beat this game as a kid. I remember it being hard but I don't remember it being this hard. It might be because this was one of 3 games I owned and played it religiously, a lot of time just for the soundtrack.

  • @NoNo-vv4vo

    I like the smaller creator skit format, it doesn't drag for too long or dominate the review (Which is a problem the nostalgia critic ran into, in part because he has paid actors on retainer that kind of obligates him to use them but still). If you want another go at the game Rayman Redemption is free to download on windows.
