There's a time and a place for everything and it's called "College". I mean; "Off-Topic".

Familiarise yourself with the concept.

My only real complaint with Stranger's Wrath is that they humanized it. I hated the Clankerz. I didn't like the human like mechanations. Chippunks and Stunkz are awesome, but I always notice their similarity to Earth's animals, and it annoys me to no end.

Other than that, great game.

hey what is most anoying thing about stranger the thing that anoys me is the grrrr grrrr noise stranger makes when he jumps

I know like that other sound: hoo ahh!

Dipstikk 04-06-2005 01:02 PM

The thing that annoyed me the most was the fact that the Clakkerz could pick up things with their wing feathers. I mean, seriously, can a bird bend its feathers in real life? I thought it was an Oddworld design tradition to make the creatrures surreal, yet functionally sound. What about wing fingers, like in Archaeopteryx? That would work, it would look cool, and they could still keep the look of a bird.

And since they could pick things up and use their feathers like hands, where are the joints? Every functioning limb has got to have a bending system of some kind.

AUGH. The Clakkerz were cool as characters, though. But technically, their "hands" can't work.

That what lorne wants, he wants clakkerz to be funny and anoying. I think they did a good job makeing the clakkerz anoying judging from your post. But I personaly agree if you there Dipstikk.

This would look absolutely lovely in a post in Oddworld Help.

I think that when Stranger goes "Hooahh" it sounds like an outlaw's voice. The first few times he did it I got worried someone was sneaking up behind me.

i'm not saying he's a steef but maybe he uses the catch phase hooah! to intimadate people.

Hunk of Steef 04-06-2005 06:11 PM

What do you mean by, " Im not saying hes a steef"?

Nate 04-06-2005 06:51 PM

And I'm not saying he's not a Steef. But the one soundbite does sound very outlawish.

Most likely to prevent this from being sent to the spoilers section.

Hunk of Steef 04-06-2005 07:02 PM

Yes, I thought it sounded like an outlaw too. I always knew it was just Stranger, though. Good observation.
EDIT: Thanks Dipstikk, I should have noticed.

Paco_the_Taco 04-06-2005 09:28 PM

SPOILERS?






The way you guys are talking might give people who haven't finished the game a few too many hints.

Abe16 04-06-2005 09:42 PM

Maybe this should be moved into the spoilers?
I hated the sound Styranger made when he jumped too!

Wil 04-07-2005 04:20 AM

I agree. This thread is made to discuss details of the game, so for that I'll send it to the Spoilers Forum.

big bro slig #1 04-15-2005 04:53 PM

but this is the spoilers forum

stingbee 04-18-2005 07:51 AM

this is strange I first put it in off topic then it got moved to genral now it's moved here are the mods going to make up their minds

duveaux 04-18-2005 09:29 AM

First off all, it wasn't off topic, but general oddworld.
So GOD is the right place.
Then there were beginning to appear spoilers so it had to be moved to the spoiler forum.

Dark Elite_H2 06-13-2005 03:31 PM

The repetitive voices of out-laws, clakkerz, and Grubbs. 'Dat really get's to me....they could've atleast put in different voices instead of one measley voice, heightened or lowered to make it different. I CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE, YA KNOW!

misty 06-29-2005 05:01 PM

one of the only things that anoyed me about stranger was that he didnt swim very fast. That bugged me alot. Other than that the only real thing that bugged me was the fact that sometimes ammo was hard to get... you would see the signs of ammo but no ammo... it was one of those "what..." things to me. I really liked the game though.

Oddkid 09-21-2005 05:48 PM

Lets see. If anything did get on my nerves.....It had to be the Grubbs...
Its just their voices, they were the first things in the game that I COULDN'T understand. I can understand the game clearly enough up until Stranger is more formally introduced to the Grubbs. Not to mention the way they sounded annoyed me.

Give me a Clakker over a Grub anyday.

And of course Stranger's shortness as a steef annoyed me as well. I was so used to him being tall that it just looked wrong when he became short.

sligslog 09-29-2005 09:15 AM

Yeah I found that anoying too.
