LOL!!! OMG that is so laughable!

Psychonaut 11-10-2006 01:40 PM

I wold like to live in industrial city,like Setco Springs...I love it...

Matriar 11-10-2006 01:44 PM

Woah, really not my kind of taste that industrial stuff... but who cares. :)

I guess would find a little, peaceful home in the nature-orientated places in the western mudos. I love forests. :)

Psychonaut 11-10-2006 02:20 PM

I am a real industrialist,:) And i love forests too

Arxryl 11-10-2006 04:12 PM

Yeah. I'd only live in the industrial areas for a little while to get some music/clothes/ and maybe a backpack. Then I'd go out and travel the world.

_GrubHunter_ 11-11-2006 11:38 PM

Of course I will choose Wolvark Docs! I love this place, and i'm industrialist :)

Alcar 11-12-2006 12:24 AM

In order of preference:
  1. Paramonia
  2. Native Village
  3. Necrum

For the obvious reasons, that I prefer scenic and peaceful places if I were to have to spend my life as a Mudokon (Humans don't exist on Oddworld!).

Witness the power of the Empire!

I'd like to be the commander of Galactic Empire's oddworld invasion force, the sith lord and have an Executor-class dreadnaught and several common destroyers under my command. I'll ally myself with mudokons and give them weapons to sabotage glukkon's facilities for the bame of the Empire. Also I'll bomb Slig Barracs to the ground from orbit. Legions of Imperial troopers and AT-AT's will deploy from giant Acclamator troop transports and terminate glukkon forces. Also Wykkers labs should be destroyed through orbital bombardment. As for natives, Empire will support them and won't harm nature because planets with breathable air are rare and should be cared about.

Arxryl 11-16-2006 11:38 AM

But then the GLukkons would soon build a rebellion force and take out your ship and then things would be funky for a while.



And also, where exactly would you live?

Admiral Pelaeon 11-16-2006 11:50 AM

I would definitely live in Paramonia... but with some AK-47 assault rifle. It's beautiful place with favourable climate but a bit dangerous.

It's off-topic, but what do you think about Galactic Empire's
(Star Wars) invasion in Oddworld. I think Empire would't oppress mudokons and ruin nature because it's not wise to spoil a planet with breathable atmosphere. It will fight glukkons to gain control over the planet. And a taskforce will be composed of Executor-class star dreadnaught, 5 Imperator-class star destroyers, 5 Acclamator trans-galactic troop transports.

No sh*t! Firstly glukkons would be unable to battle Imperial fleet, they are not a space-going race! Secondly If the things would be out of control Empire would execute order "Base-Delta-Zero" and turn Oddworld surface into lifeless desert through total orbital bombardment.

Arxryl 11-16-2006 01:39 PM

Alright...For one, please don't double post. Edit your original one.
Secondly I just said that out of respect for the story line of the original Star wars trilogy, unless you already forgot it. I wasn't actually saying that the Gukkons would start a rebellion. if anything they'd try to work out trade with the Galactic empire to secure their wealth.
Thirdly, I thought you said that they wouldn't harm oddworld because it has a breathable atmosphere and is lush with wildlife.

I don't want to get into a fight, I was just explaining why I said what I said.

Zebulon 11-27-2006 07:28 AM

dude...paramonia.

Da Big-Cheese 12-04-2006 11:55 AM

In Slig Barracks in my own tent or bunker, or Monsaic Temples in a hovel somewhere.

snuzi 12-04-2006 01:11 PM

I'd like to live in Vykker's Labs. I'd love to hang out with some Interns there :p

glokstar 12-07-2006 01:27 PM

i would organize a secret squad of small stingy creatures on the top of Vykkers Labs, breed them and on a command id tell my creatures to sting the Vykkers ship untill the air comes out which holds it up. than, when its falling and im falling with it, id say:

"Oh, sh*t! I forgot about this part!" :p

joking aside i would probably live in Paramonia like most of us (we could already establish a city there u know:p)

someone brought up the great question i was thinking of: what creature would i be? i would be a not-so-evil Vykker if there is such. not because im so found of Vykkers but because i believe they are the most equipped creatures. with all those hands, fast feet, and brain the size of a planet i think i would manage to live in Paramonia and defend myself. but than there is the fact that Vykkers have poor sensory system... oh well. all OW creatures have their obvious weakness.

Aside (sorry for off topic): ever wondered why its not Vykkers on the top of the hyerarchy ladder but glukkons?

Nate 12-07-2006 02:03 PM

Glukkons are not above Vykkers. As suppliers of consumer products, they're both at approximately the same level . That said, the Oddworld political landscape is a rather complicated heirarchy.

I like your stinging idea but for one thing: Vykkers labs is not a hot air (or helium) balloon - it's a good old flying saucer propelled by unknown physics. But if you can get wasps with pneumatic stings, that could still work.

glokstar 12-07-2006 03:21 PM

i actually suspected that. it was a joke :) but i mean imagine the picture of abe or munch just sitting around up there waiting to get enough stinging creatures and telling them to start stinging... i dunno i find it halarious.

as for the glukkon vs vykker discussion, even though glukkons are my favorit characters i still find it rather strange that vykkers are not high above them in rank... i dunno may be im just a pain in the back parts, whatever.

god! sorry, i drove this thread off topic completely. back to the original question: Where would you live?

Err, yeah it is. Maybe not in the conventional, Earthly sense, but it’s suspended in the air by gas, just like pods, blimps and dropships are.

glokstar 12-07-2006 04:35 PM

honestly, i dont think it is really the point weather it is airship or sacer. :p

Arxryl 12-07-2006 04:40 PM

No but some things should be cleared up for anyone who may read these posts later.

Hmm.... after thinking for a while, I'd probably want to move somewhere like the Mongo river or a Mudokon settlement.

glokstar 12-07-2006 04:43 PM

well true. but i dont think anybody knows it really :) unless one of the debaters had asked Alf himself i dont even know what to believe any more

What are you basing that on? And if it is lighter-than-air, what was with the glowing center of the bottom that looked a lot like some sort of advanced propulsion?

Spirrow 12-08-2006 06:01 AM

Didn't someone mention anything about gravity-defying rocks and
stones on Oddworld? Still even that would have to have gas pockets
or a type of chemical that allows it to defy gravity.

Taytay 12-08-2006 10:05 AM

Fun question.
After a decent thought process, I'd go for a little FREE native city that travelers would travel through alot. That way I could make a decent buisness, also causing michief would be rather easy...something im sure we are all fond of doing.
Haha.
Paramonia being cold doesnt sound bad at all either.

Ninjaxe 12-20-2006 02:31 AM

I would like to live with the Big Raisin or the slig or glukkon queen. With the big rasin...I would meditate (sleep ;) ) all day cause he sleeps why shouldnt I. I doubt he would notice.

With the slig/glukkon queen would be cool. Glukkon queen is surrounding with fire and the lever thingy pulling her about and watching her popping out baby glukkon kids. I wouldn't stop laughing at 'ploping!' sound. I wondering if they are still as ugly as they are born. Imagine baby glukkon with littler arms and legs. ha! ha! Same with silg queen.

aaj111 12-20-2006 11:31 AM

I like the Log Cabin in Paramonia idea. :)

Industrial: let's see, RF is a bit dangerous and smelly, the Mines is a bit dusty, Feeco is full of train smoke (look at the Southern Cross debacle), The slig Barracks is unsafe as I could be mistaken for a target, Bonewerkz has too many hungry Dobermanns on steroids, Brewery doesn't exist anymore. Any place that hasn't been covered in a game is at risk of terrorist attack, so I have to say Vykkers Labs(a different franchise of course).

Native: Paramonia, for the same reasonsas erveryone else, although it might be getting a bit dangerous around the Temple with recolonization and all.

About the Vykkers Labs decision, I would make use of their technology to volunteer for an upgrade to a photosynthetic superintelligent organism that can do all the same stuuf as a TX terminator, and then I would fill up oddworld with asexual offspring in an outburst of reproductive ecstasy.

Crazy bastard, aren't I.

What about:flub fuels, the new bewery [that has srabs surondingit it] maggog motors and why not in vykkers labs? :fuzconf:


For me personly i would probly live around flubfules on the river and probly have a buissness there too although i wouldn't want to be a gluckon cus they'r arms are used as legs which mean they can't drink coffe, can sligs own buisnesses?

Oddys 01-03-2007 12:57 PM

Monsaic

That's my place!
