What a noble thing for you to do. :p

Aside from plot points such as rescuing Sam and the trial of Molluck, the time constraints really meant the exclusion of the great gameplay that was envisioned. Originally MO was planned to splice the genres of action/adventure, animal nurturing and role-playing. An entire world would have been created with massive regions instead of relatively small levels, and very open-ended gameplay. A whole load of emphasis would be made on the status of native and industrial creatures, which would really have injected life into the possession system. Elements of this were seen through Abe's and Munch's ability to command Mudokons and Fuzzles, but imagine possession a Slig, then performing Slig duties until his pay check arrives, buying a status upgrade, then commanding a group of lower-status Sligs to do your bidding. A whole load of emphasis would also be placed on the health of the environment. Native Mudokons would regrow trees, while slaves would cut them down. The industrial races would own addictive consumer goods weaponry so they can turn natives into slaves. It would have been magnificent. I've not heard of any game on the same scale as the planned MO.

*fondness and memories*

There's a reason for that...

If anyone really wants to know what MO would have been, you should check out Paul O'Connor's designer diaries at The Oddworld Archives http://www.oddworlduniverse.com/toa/.

xavier, in those 2 pictures, in the back round is that giant mudokon statue thing sam?

Can someone please post a pick of roid?

We can't post a picture of Roid because the only known image of him/it was in the Art of Oddworld book and forum rules preclude posting images from the book (for both ethical and legal reasons).

no i saw one on goolge and it was not drawn(maybe it was from the artbook)ill look it up and tell you the search and page number then you can tell us if is from the artbook or not so someone can post it.

Even if someone else scanned the art book, we can't then post the image on the forums. The only difference would be to make us party to a crime rather than the actual criminal.

if you want me to ill get a picyure and tell you how to get to it, so you can see if its from the book or not.

go find it, then we'll see if it's from the book. ;)

Sam is the big fat thing in the middle of the picture.

WHAT i looked all over and i found squat. last time i looked there was a picture of roid.ill look harder but i probabley wont find anything
