One thing I know :
It's certainly not around our solar system! :

Ah good to see you online Alector! :fuzsmile:
I too, believe that Oddworld resides in our hearts (figure of speech). It's why it means so much to the people that understand it, and so little to the people who don't. Alcar... |
Hi Alcar! *hugs*
I agree with you. Sometimes, the Oddworld seems to be so realistic. It's like our world. The only difference is these creatures open a new world to us. This is so fascinating of the Oddworld, don't you think so? |

It doesn't matter where oddworld is or what dimension/time era/plane of gravity/part of the time space continum it is in....what matters it that it entertains everyone and everything!

whats bad abut opaing an old topic
|
Nothing but don't spam if you do. I have to agree Oddworld is where you wish it to be. After all its part of the incredable power of the imagination. So its where ever you wish it to be. But I wounder if there is an actual world somewhere in the Universe that is similar to Oddworld in ways? Perhaps!:D

And to talk in response to the topic, Oddworld might be that universe we see in our minds, that our minds create. A reminder of our world, the problems the great things all just somewhere we wish we could be. -Al the Vykker |
This is just taking fanaticism to a new and disturbing level. :rolleyes: Yes, Oddworld is a videogame, and it doesnt exist in reality, moreso in the hearts, minds and imaginations of the creators and fans. We can imagine and take it to different levels, but believing something fictional exists is, mind the harshness, ludicrous. I understand we all have vivid imaginations, but this is going too far.
Ok, just let me get to a good distance before throwing pies... |

This thread is still on I mean I was Mnch man Abe back when I saw this post!

Im saying thats what some people may think of it. That doesnt mean they are right or you are right either. Everyone has their own opinion. I should have stated on my response that it could be what someone thought of it, sheesh. This is an Oddworld Forum, is it not. You have to respect people if they are just giving an idea. You dont have to like it, just have atleast respect. Its just what an idea is about is it not?

you go al :fuzwink:

Yeh, Al, I understand that people have opinions, but I think that a line has to be drawn somewhere between an opinion, and just plain weird...

Though the same can be said similar about Santa Claus. St. Nick was a real man. You dont have to believe in Santa Claus, what you can believe in is that he is at heart the spirit of Christmas, and can always be viewed in that sense. Regardless if you believe anymore or still do, you may not have to believe in him, but you can believe in him as a figure that is the embodiment of Christmas itself. -Al the Vykker |
its the same with the easter bunny!
|
I bet there are many saints named Nick...
I have to agree with BigBro. Creating a fantasy realm in our minds based off a video game for looking at the world (or something like that) is quite wrong. |
With the Santa Claus thing, its true that he was a real man. But, in regards to that, Oddworld wasnt, and isnt real. Ill say again that its good to have a vivid imagination, but believing in something that is fictional, and is duely noted, is a bit weird. Take the Tooth Fairy, for example. Most of us know she isnt real, right? So when we hear someone say that they strongly believe that she exists in reality, it does sound a little strange, doesnt it? Im not saying that they cant believe in her, just that its unusual to be opinionated about something that is, frankly, intangible. Same circumstances for Oddworld.

I was just trying to create some sort of a comparrison on what some people think and what others do thats all. But in a way yes oddworld is not real, from what we know of. But actually your imagination in the case of Lorne Lanning can create totally wondorful things. They are in the sense real with their games, but not in our dimension or world. A hard topic to start to explain. So Ill just try and end on that note.

Another good point that Oddworld could be real, but in our imaginations, as Ive been saying. But I dont really want to start something up right now, its Christmas Eve. :fuzsmile: So merry Xmas to ya's all, and have a good day, ya hear?!
