I'd be fine with a DLC (at this point I'm not picky about how OWI releases their games so long as we get some new ones at some point) though I still think it'd be really interesting to get a full-fledged story with a Slig POV. Like I said before, so far Sligs have just been generic, stupid, mass-produced mooks, so it'd be fun to see one that doesn't "fit in" like he should.
As good as the gameplay mechanics of the Oddworld games were (well except for MO, anyway) what drew me in personally was the overarching lore and stories. My experience with SW is a good example of that--I'm normally not a big fan of FPSs, but SW was unique enough to not feel like a generic shoot-em-up, and the underlying plot made me want to keep going to find out what would happen next. Stranger, gruff jerkass that he was, was still a pretty sympathetic character once you learn what he's gone through and I got pretty invested in his plight. After finishing all the Oddworld games, I still have tons of questions about the world and it's denizens, and I'd like to see them answered one day.
Anyway that's my opinion.
