I read that Abe's story wasn't supposed to be part of the Quintology.

If that's so, they got such a good headstart in the Abe games that
they decided to add him to MO. Because I read that MO was to
be the first game of the Oddworld Quintology.

Nate 07-03-2006 05:35 AM

Nope. Wrong, wrong and WRONG!

Abe is mentioned as the first hero of the quintology right from the start of AO. I quote from the game book:

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee is the first in a five part game series from Oddworld Inhabitants called "The Oddworld Quintology."

Lord Vulcher 07-03-2006 05:38 AM

The thing is, there have only been 2 games in the Quintology so far, AO and MO. Abe has only been in one as the main character. MO's main character was, of course, Munch. However, I think the next few games will probably centre around Abe as he still has some Mudokons to save.

Spirrow 07-03-2006 06:57 AM

Yet they say MO was originally supposed to be the first game of the Quintology.

AO was, and always was, the first game of the Quintology. All the Quintology games are going to have the term "Oddysee" in them (I think).

Spirrow 07-03-2006 07:17 AM

Let's just wait and see what other peoples opinion are before
we get all to confident we're correct.

Lord Vulcher 07-03-2006 07:33 AM

But it certaintly looks lime all of them are going to be an Oddysee.

Spirrow 07-03-2006 08:14 AM

Oh yes, I'm sure the first adventure of a new series in the Quintology
would be call an "oddysee". But I think they created the Abe games
because MO wasn't going as fast as OWI expected. So, yeah, maybe
your right about Abe's story be part of the actual Quintology unlike
SW.

LOL
Yeah, nice reply, Holy Joe. That'll keep people staring at
your post for quite a while longer than usual.

P.S. Wow, people get so sarcastic here.

Lord Vulcher 07-03-2006 08:34 AM

I think I proved my point with that post. Unless you would like another squirrel Spirrow?

used:) 07-03-2006 09:55 AM

I am getting sick of seeing that squirrel.

Spirrow 07-03-2006 11:25 AM

(shivers)
Stupid squirrel

No you didn't prove a thing to me, Lord Vulcher. I believe what I
want to and there is nothing you can do about that.

Xavier 07-03-2006 12:03 PM

AO has always been planned to be the first game, I never saw something that was saying something else

and I hate that squirrel, don't ever post picturest like that to make a "point"

magic9mushroom 07-04-2006 02:53 PM

Yeah, but then a lot of things were edited and cut out of MO such as Sam the Mudokon Queen.

Yes...MO the concept and MO the game are entirely different

Mudoko_Jedi 07-04-2006 11:30 PM

AO and MO are the only ones that count as the quintology series, AE is an extra for AO and SW is just a game that is oddworld but has nothing to do with the quintology (stupid EA)

Xavier 07-05-2006 01:32 AM

why do you say stupid EA? I totally agree EA is stupid.
But it was Lorne's decision to do SW when he still had a contract with Microsoft.

madder128 07-07-2006 07:43 AM

If more people bought strangers wrath oddworld Inhabitants would still be here (making games) and we'd probably all be looking forward to Oddworld Fangus.

I blame EA games more than anyone for the fall of Oddworld games.

Xavier 07-07-2006 09:54 AM

EA killed Oddworld, that's how I see it...

Spirrow 07-07-2006 09:58 AM

Now everyone's going to think EA got the new run of the
future Oddworld games.

Lord Vulcher 07-10-2006 11:45 PM

EA is quite good, but I don't think it mixes with Oddowrld.
PS: Sorry Xavier.

Bullet Magnet 07-18-2006 12:53 PM

Actually, the first idea for an Oddysee title was Squeek, but as Lorne's first and possibly favourite project he would have decided to wait untill the technology could fully realise it or he could make it into a film. Hence Abe and Munch's earlier adventures.

So maybe the film will be of Squeek...

Nate 07-19-2006 05:05 AM

We've discussed this before and the general conclusion is that, whilst Squeek was the first Hero that Lorne told Sherry about, Abe was always meant to be the first to have his story told.

Mudoko_Jedi 07-20-2006 02:07 AM

I want to see concept on squeek really bad!!!

Spirrow 07-20-2006 02:43 AM

A lot of people want to know what he will look like in the game
or movies. But I think it's going to be another new species on
Oddworld just like munch was in MO, that is affected by the industrials
and will probably need Abe's help or something.

Mega-mud! 07-20-2006 02:43 AM

please GOD dont let squeek be in the movie abe should be in it he IS THE HERO!!!

Nate 07-20-2006 07:00 AM

Of course Squeek won't be in the movie. Abe's Oddysee is about Abe.

You'll have to wait for Squeek's movie to see Squeek.

Mudoko_Jedi 07-20-2006 11:02 PM

I want a squeek game not movie and Instead of movies more games.

Xavier 07-20-2006 11:09 PM

face it, they are doing movies now... ;)

Mudoko_Jedi 07-21-2006 04:26 PM

I know but I hate it sooo much.
