I would love to see Lorne Lanning offer us Munch's Exoddus. I imagine, if he did, it would "make up" for what happened with Munch's Oddysee. I expect we would get the transformation aspect of Munch that Lorne had planned (read about it in the Artbook if you haven't already) as well as further exploration of Ma'Spa, Sam, and other things that were left out of Munch and speculative for the planned but canceled Munch's Exoddus.
As far as questions like "What does Munch have to do now?" I wouldn't be surprised if there's a lot more to his story in Lorne's mind that we aren't the slightest aware of. I don't see any valid argument for Lorne not doing ME as of yet because, quite frankly... Why not jump back into Oddworld by doing what he wanted to do in the first place (in respect to Munch's story) and by throwing Abe and Munch around in a more successful bonus game in order to attract more players for the following Squeek's Oddysee? What would I like to see in Munch's Exoddus? I would like to see Lorne complete Munch's story in a way that he sees most fit. |
I think that Munch's story later on in the Quintology will likely follow on his significance as the last Gabbit and the fact that he's infected with Gorman Disenza.
|
Is that more like syphilis or leprosy? Pick one.
|
It’s more like diabetes—a disease of the rich.
|
... with an itch.
|
I think ME will be based on getting a can opener from a factory, getting to Ma'Spa,and saving Sam... or something completely different.
|
Munch's exoddus will probably never exist.
And oddworld TOTALLY screwed when changing the play console abilities (I mean when changing from PC and PS to X-box) I hardly even know what's the story from Exoddus. |

i think that munch's exoddus will be fantabulous and even better than maria 64 on the nintendo 64.
|
Hmmm.... A 3D game, release on PC, PS2, PS3 (hardly) and PSP. Well, I don't know.
Oh and crustysusan, it's Mario 64 not Maria lool. |
where im from it is maria siosante-qaute so i apoligive for mistakes
|
:
But oddworld should make it at least for pc too... |
Make it next gen only. So PC, 360 and PS3. Perhaps the Wii.
|
Wii would be nice, yeah.
Why did oddworld stop making games? |
Amazingly enough AlienMagi...
To try and make films! Jesus Christ, even I knew that! |

Why there wouldn't be a ME? MO doesn't have to be the end of the Munch's story, because it isn't all about raising the Gabbit eggs. Glukkons are still out there, so they could try and make Vykkers MicroLabs (just like the Gluk from MO who attempted (and failed miserably) to make a SoulStorm MicroBrewery) and make traps for the last Gabbits; let's say, one of those last Gabbits get trapped, so Munch is pissed off and decides to rescue him and destroy Vykkers MicroLabs... just sayin'. Also, there might be fuzzle traps left to rescue, or am I wrong?
|
Munch really is the last gabbit. So I doubt we will see a game where he has to save other gabbits.
Munch's Exoddus is still a story that can be told, but not in a close future I'm afraid. |
What about Munch's mom, who was supposed to be in MO? Anyway there are more than one Vykker Lab, so we might get to go to the one connected to FeeCo Depot in ME.
|
It was Abe's mom who was supposed to be in MO...
|
Yes, but I read one of Max the Mug's old posts in which he said Munch's mom was also supposed to be there. Here: http://www.oddworldforums.net/showpo...16&postcount=3

That post is five years old. It’s really cute that you trust me so much that any two words I said an age ago can be taken as gospel truth by you, but I am not normally a primary source of information. There is only one mention of Munch’s mother; in its entirety it reads:
What? You want to hear about Munch? Sure. Munch may think he’s the last of his kind, but really …. This is in the context of a designer diary that has just devoted several paragraphs to describing Lady Margaret and half a sentence to tease us about Sam. Notice that this fragment doesn’t even explicitly reference Munch’s mother. Be aware also that it’s written by Paul O’Connor, who made it quite clear that he would be disseminating misinformation. Note that it doesn’t say |
Doesn't say what?!
|
I have always dreamt that Munch's Exoddus was the game about the repopulation of Gabbits on Oddworld.
Please Max, continue with your theory. |
I seem to have left in a segment of an earlier draft; that’s my full story, folks.
|
:
Let's not start any theories about a wild population of Gabbits living on an lost plateau... |
didnt they say that their next game would take years with schedulaing and the fact with citizen seige
|
We're just merely speculating.
On the other hand, there is supposed to be a real continuation of MO, since SW isn't really part of the Quintology (same goes with Fangus). Whether it will be with Munch or not... that's a totally different story. Oh wait... I forgot about Squeek's Oddysee. But still there could be something else in between or after SO. |
