Did anyone else skip Rayman 1 as a Kid? (feddit.org)

Now i must say to my Defence that i grew up with Rayman 3 on the PS2 and never even had heard of Rayman 1 at all as a Kid until my Father brought in his Cousins Pirate CDs and DVDs as he had a Chipped PS2 overhere :P

and while i do love Rayman especially 2 and 3 (tho mostly Rayman Revolution because i prefer the Voice Acting instead of the Gibberish personally :P) i HATE Rayman 1 like i just never found it played Good and it was just argh >.>

And its not like the Music Level makes it frustrating its just the whole Speed of the Game feels more like a Slog to Playthrough -.-

Itd assume anyone else probably enjoyed Rayman 1 more especially via the PC Fan Game of Rayman 1 that basically fixes all the Flaws apparently? >.>
I really should try it out someday :P
Its just for 2D Raymans i prefer Origins and Legends anyday over whatever Rayman 1 rtried to be >.>

I technically skipped it because I encountered Rayman 2 before Rayman 1.

The first installment feels harder considering it uses a limited-lives system (alongside saved games), while the sequel seemed to give unlimited retries (even if you have to restart the level). And with the modern Rayman games, the first game feels like wouldn't be as interesting or approachable.
