Maggy doesnt walk on her hands but she doesnt walk kintos carry her around

Zerox 09-10-2006 12:12 AM

She's the queen, that's different.
I wouldn't think they can walk any other way. They would probably be able to run...that is, if they didn't wear clothes that almost completely restrict any form of movement.

Do the have beaks?
In the left corner there is a beaked kinto.
Edit:Here is the link to the picture on TOGG.

I think it is rather a stretched out lip. Elums have those and they don't have beaks.

I have a question. Do we know anything about Wolvarks' history, other than that they are much like Sligs, love war weapons, and that they work for Sekto? Or maybe the reason why we don't know too much about Wolvarks, is due to the fact that soon after SW, they went to work on the movie, and refused any possible interviews on the characters. Yet, it could be that in SW, the characters after Stranger's secret discovery, have much to do with the furthur spoilers after that moment, making possible interviews, big time spoilers.

Bullet Magnet 09-20-2006 05:25 AM

We do know that Wolvarks enjoy, or at least wearily attend, barbeques. We also know that (like Filthy Hands Floyd) the have a fetish for fuzzle pies, even when it gives them horrific digestion issues. They like to push around the Grubbs, and are really dumb because they get payed with paper.

Oh, and they often use the words "purdy", "retreat" and "AAAOOORRGH!"

Microsoft originally signed OWI up to make four Xbox exclusive games, MO being the first. Then midway through the production of SW, Microsoft dropped OWI - which means that the deal is over and no longer applies. This freed them to a) attempt to put out a PS2 port of SW and b) decide not to make games at all any more.

Cullen Heath 09-20-2006 09:30 PM

Why would they just drop Oddworld Inhabitants like that?

Nate 09-20-2006 11:10 PM

Because they were cutting down on the number of projects they had going and dropped anything that was original, edgy or offbeat. Note that Psychonauts (BEST GAME EVER!) was dropped at the same time.

Xavier 09-21-2006 01:31 AM

yep those asses wanted to focus on hardcore gamers :(

Nate 09-21-2006 05:32 AM

Funny the definition of 'Harcore Gamers'. I'd classify that as someone who's played Shadow of the Colossus, Katamari and Psychonauts, not someone who enjoys the latest FPS or football clone.

Xavier 09-21-2006 08:53 AM

Heh, that would be the experimental player... someone who isn't afraid of something new

Nate 09-21-2006 03:04 PM

Eh, clearly my opinions have been tainted by only reading games sites that care about quality games.

Xavier 09-21-2006 11:49 PM

heh ;)
I played, finished and loved SotC, and I can't wait to have some money to buy Psychonauts

I guess thank you Oddworld for making me aware of the quality games :p

Wil 09-22-2006 12:49 AM

Cullen, for contact try ‘symbio_uk@hotmail.com’.

Cullen Heath 09-22-2006 02:50 PM

Thank you, Max. I'll try it, but where did you get it?

Wil 09-22-2006 04:07 PM

Some specialised search engineering.

Bonedust 09-23-2006 05:59 PM

Do you guyes know anything about Nod?

Wil 09-24-2006 02:57 AM

Only its name.

Nate 09-24-2006 03:10 AM

And that it probably is apocryphal...

Bonedust 09-24-2006 08:39 AM

Are the meech munchies salami rolls?

Zerox 09-24-2006 09:09 AM

Yes, I believe they are. Scrab Cakes are biscuit things, maybe like cookies or something. Elum Chubs are like sausages and Paramite Pies are...well, if I have to tell you that, you're so stupid you don't deserve to know.

Cullen Heath 09-24-2006 09:47 PM

Sorry to change any discussion you may have going on but...

Xavier, please tell me that you have this somewhere...!

Xavier 09-24-2006 10:07 PM

of cource I do... :D

It will come on TOL, when the big update arises :p

Cullen Heath 09-24-2006 10:22 PM

Ohh, my savior, Xav!



PS: Please check your PM's...

ANGRY ELEPHANT 09-25-2006 03:16 AM

Why did the vykkers choose Munch to fetch the critters instead of a slog?Or a snoozer?Munch is the last gabbit,and can't defend himself without Zap!cola.He'd probably get eaten by a scrab or paramite or something else.

Bullet Magnet 09-25-2006 04:52 AM

Good question. I suppose Humphrey had never... "interfered" with a gabbit before. He just knew he'd never get another opportunity.

Slaveless 09-25-2006 01:05 PM

Well, I am not sure, but in the orginal plot, that could have been explained. Supposily, Munch was to have steriod treatment, to make him extermily bulky. Imagine Munch the size of the intended size Gloktigis. That might also lead to the conclusion that being so hulkish, Munch would be able to fight off characters endangering his life. It could also be intended that his mind would be reduced to mind control when he was the Roids, making himself a better version of Snoozers. It could've been also been possible that Humphrey would buy the last can of Gabiar, and force Munch to mate, so more Gabbits could be produced. When there were more Gabbits, Humphrey could then put the last Gabbits in capitivity, and make their fates the same as Munch's. Fetch, security, mate, and surgery. That could have possibily made the whole plot so much more complex, but thanks to Microsoft, that never happened.

Assuming that that was indeed ‘the’ original plot.

Alternatively, giving Munch the job of seeking out Fuzzles made the only real excuse to equip his headport with sonar for locating Fuzzle traps.
