I think...
 
I think what makes ME a fan is:
-I love all the creatures
-I have beaten AE 3 times i think, maybe 4, now I am going on 5th
-I had AO when I didn't know english (probably 4 years old)
-I am trying very hard to save all mudokons in AE
-I am on these forums (and i think you wouldn't come at ODDWORLD forums if you aren't a fan)
-I have at least 50 pictures of Oddworld
-I'd like to be a Slig or a Glukkon

I don't think that the amount of stuff you have or the amount of time you devote to oddworld makes any difference in how big of a fan a person is. I've known people who may have played a bit of an oddworld game in passing and never given it another though who will say "oh man, i LOVE oddworld" and i don't doubt that they really do. But, since we are measuring dicks here, i guess i'll throw down some stuff.

- Three oddworld tattoos
- Abe Statue
- Leatherbound Art Book
- Official Fan of the Month 3 years ago
- Stranger's Wrath autographed by Lorne
- 2 Mukoden emotions shirts
- Tons of the patches, stickers, pins, trading cards, and such
- Every Movie poster and a bunch of other promotional posters
- Purchased every game on release date (including AO)
- Made VHS tapes of all the cutscenes of AO and AE to play on loop at work to promote the release of Munch
- Freaked out many women with my obvious obsessive compulsive disorder
- Actively spend time each day to see what you guys all have to say and to feel relief that other people love oddworld to the extent that i do.

I'm sorry, but I think that's going too far... I'd rather have women cool with me. And a lot of that stuff there is very hard to believe.

All I have to say is: What makes me an Oddworld fan is my love for Oddworld... I don't think you need to prove your Oddworld-fanisicm by clearing games 110% and writing entire books about it, you just need to LOVE Oddworld... And THAT makes me an Oddworld fan...

It's more of a joke than anything. But it is difficult to give a quick answer to people who ask "what do those tattoos mean?". It usually ends with the person giving me a perplexed look and me shrugging my shoulders.

Plus, the statue of "the little green guy" in my room with all the posters baring the same character, are equally as difficult to explain to anybody who may have come to my apartment.

And what's hard to believe about any of that stuff?

I guess i'm an oddworld fanatic.. I love my AO and Ae games more than anything else in the world. I play AO daily and draw many sketches of OW creatures, but sadly I don't have a scanner because I would do anything to show you guys!! Oddworld is my life, it has quite literally changed my life in how i look at it... never judge people because they are odd, because odd is good! I am planning to get 4 oddworld tattoos when i'm old enough, the scrabanian, paramonian, mudokon healing symbol and the OWI logo :) oddworld forum rocks you guys!

Ramonsk8 03-28-2007 09:14 PM

I didn't have a scanner at first, so I had to take photo's of my drawings with my digital camera, and then upload it to the PC... That way you can show us, but it isn't very helpful if you want to edit the drawing in Photoshop or something...

1. I love Oddworld games
2. I really love them
3. They're just the best
4. I'm playing OW games since 1999
5. AE was my favourite game for psx
6. AE IS my favourite pc game
7. And it is still better than half life/stalker/other "good" new games...

Hm....this is a very simle question. Abe's Odysee is the answer.That game makes me an oddworld fan because is one of the best game every time. Such originality, movies and music for a comic but cool game all in a place. What can you ask for more?

P.S: Abe's Exodus get a special place after the first. Is a very good game that adds a little flavour to Abe and mudokons :D

10. I used to pretend I was Abe in Oddworld in the Summer.

Lol, I used to do that around the house. Pissed my sister off :D

And obviously I post here, show a dedicated interest, have the Art book etc. etc.

This kinda doesn't explain why you're a fan... You're just saying you're a fan because AO is the best game. What the? :fuzconf:

Zerox, do you have a sis that hates Oddworld too? :D
