Who exactly is kidnapped in Rayman? What's her name? All I remember is the main character having nightmares and those nightmares turning into monsters.

In Origins there are these 5 or 6 nymphs you have to save (one in each world) that you have to save to unlock the second half of the game. They're all female.

I'm aware of this. But the difference is that the focus/main story is not on how those women need saving but on the nightmares coming to life (if I rememebr correctly). The girls who give you powers are a subplot.

Fair enough, I know exactly what you mean about it being light on exposition - it took me a few minutes to remember what actually happens in the game :)

As you say its such a minor element in barely counts (though I understand why women in particular might find the use of this trope irritating)
