Emile Morel, Rayman Legends Lead Game Designer has revealed that you’ll control Murphy the frog, rather than Rayman, for a good portion of the single player mode in Rayman Legends. Morel explained that you’ll control Murphy for roughly half of the game, and then you’ll take control of Rayman for the rest of the game.
“Not the whole game is like this – you have specific levels for Murphy and the GamePad and more classic levels when you are playing as Rayman from beginning to the end. Half of the game, maybe not half but a good portion of the game, you’ll have to play as Murphy.”
Reblogged this on drndark.
Fuck off cunt
OOOOkkkkk!!!!
ummmm, what? that’s a very odd choice… I wanted Rayman Legends, not Murphy Legends…. That would be like if I bought a Zelda game and played as Tingle for half the game…. ACTUALLY, I WOULD TOTALLY PLAY THAT GAME!
Multiplayer mode you can ALWAYS control Rayman . 1 player you have to play both .
like it said u got a portion of the game playing him to help Rayman. probaly could be the same if it was on other consoles.
if you play 2 player , you can use Rayman on every single level , whilst someone else uses gamepad to use murphy . Or one player can use murphy on the gamepad and 4 people can use Rayman and co with pro controlers .
This is totally off topic, but TINGLE! :D
I still want a Zelda where you play as Zelda (no, not CDi, god no). Or where Zelda is the villian .___.
It’s like a mario game where you play as browser…..
Oh my god I just had the awesomest tower defense game idea.
Really? You think of a Mario game where you can play as Bowser and tower defence comes into your mind first? Its would be a pretty idea, for a couple of levels, but i still want a Mario 2 like game, where we can play as Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Bowser. Not Toad, hes dumb.
Don’t dis Toad.
Toad is a faggot.
Wow, that doesn’t sound too good.
That’s sweet !! just over half the level you use rayman , the other half you use murphy!!
There is only 1 way to play this game though . 2 player plus *calls in the cavalvry*
If you will be forced to play as murphy nearly half the that really sucks.
nearly half the game
Huh…thats weird…i was gona play this game co-op anyway, but still. Im guessing it’s sort of like how Origins had those wasp levels ect to change the gameplay, so in some levels or other halfs of levels you’ll play as Murphy, which is honestly not that bad in my opinion, keeps the gameplay fresh, and a whoke different play style.
*wasp, derp. It was a mosquito
SEVENTH
you’re not seventh until I remove my penis from your butt.
Don’t give me the satisfaction of a reply.
Also, this doesnt mean you play as Murphy more than Rayman, he says its not half, but a good portion, which suggests 40% of the game as Murphy.
I speculate a maximum of a 20% with Murphy. Why? because the french guy at the interview doesn’t speak english fluidly, he clearly just said the first words that came to his mind, and he probably traslated “there will be parts with rayman and parts with murphy” into “the game will be half Rayman half Murphy”. He even corrected himself because obviously he didn’t want to mean that. Obviously the levels with Murphy would be lineal and more focused on “protecting the victim”, like the level with the flying shield.
Well this kills my excitement for the game a bit. I’d rather they just kept Murphy as a multiplayer thing, he shouldn’t be a main part of the singleplayer…
Eh, I guess it has something to do with the story.
There is no story in Rayman
… How dare you?
Well maybe if you play with the pro or classic controller you can play as rayman the entire game.
Or a better idea: someone can go to ubisoft and slap Rayman legends designer and put some sense into him.
Murphy’s wart covered face.
Well, Rayman Legends is off my list.
I feel like this is being misquoted… It sounds more to me like he’s saying in single player you’ll have to control Murphy AND Rayman, where some levels will involve them both but others will be more of a standard platformer, and in this way you control them both about half the time each.
That would make more sense, and be hella more fun.
That’s just what I was thinking though you could only use the Wii U GamePad to play that way though.
Well no actually you could just as easily use a Pro controller or a Wiimote and sit the GamePad on your lap if you really didn’t want to play on just the GamePad.
Exactly! this is all a misunderstanding, even the title of this stupid article makes it look like you’re never able to play as Rayman. The game will lower it’s sales for this dumb article…
And I don’t understand why you wouldn’t be able to play with murphy and rayman at the same time and also why couldn’t the game control murphy.
The game controlling Murphy wouldn’t work right, you’d need to specify what you wanted it to do and when, there are to many options for Murphy for it to be smoothly controlled by the game.
I maintain the opinion this artcile is misleading and in fact you’ll play as both Rayman and Murphy in single player, using the GamePad, as you would in multiplayer, just controlling them both rather than one separately.
If you think about it, if they didn’t do that, they’d have to have a set of levels for multiplayer and another set for single player, which would cut down on length and quality.
Sounds interesting. Its making you use the gamepad in different ways. It will keep things fresh. Cant wait for this game.
Sure is MGS2 in here.
They’ve corrected this; due to the designer’s small slack in english skills it was misunderstood. The majorIty of the game you’ll be rayman, not murphy
I thought he was a multiplayer character. for multiplayer it’s interesting to have a touch control and other player controling rayman, but for single player it doesn’t sound that good. let’s wait to find more about the game.
……Lame. -_-
wow … that sucks

I’ve been thinking: If Wii U will be fairly similar to the DS, I think they should make a sequel to Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks!
thats bullshit
Oh my God, this is horrible news. I don’t even…
This kinda makes me not want to buy it. <.<
eh, I’ll be playing the game co-op the entire time anyway so it doesn’t bother me. I wonder if this is only for the WiiU version though, since Murphy seems to heavily incorporate the WiiU controller…
I think it’s a WiiU exclusive dude…which sucks in this case, I’d rather play a version of game without the Murphy stuff. Unless it’s changed a lot since I played the emo of it at the expo it’s really not that good.
Ugh. Tried playing as Murphy at an event. Bloody horrible. This news has just ruined my most desirable launch game for me.
