Since Munch is essentially a giant frog, Lorne was trying to give his voice that croaky-ness. I find the voice kind of annoying, but to his credit, it's a very unique voice that I doubt anyone could imitate without a case of laryngitis.

I always thought it was a combination of a cane toad and Truman Capote. And then I realized they were essentially the same thing.

You think Munch's voice is annoying? Well I disagree, that's your opinion and you are of course entitled to it. BUT just you wait till you get right towards the end of the game, at the beginning of one of the last levels you'll save 2 Mudokens and you'll enter a short FMV. One of them has an insanely annoying voice!

See if you can guess which one

oh yeah i know what you mean. those two mudokons why enter vykkers labs in the cutscene, i dont think thats annoying.

I played MO for the first time around last year. Enjoyed it for the most part. Did seem a bit rushed. And of course I didn't like Munch's voice as well as Abe's, but that's probably do to game order, if anything. I could be wrong though.

GlukkonGluk 07-18-2010 12:21 PM

Munch isn't exactly a talkative guy anyway, though. His hopping and jumping sound effects were far worse. No, the most distressing noise in the entire Oddworld series, for me, is the sound of a happy Fuzzle. You know? "Mee mee mee mee" SHUT UP!

I actually liked Munch's voice, I thought it sounded funny.

Rayrockslots 07-19-2010 10:46 AM

I hated that they changed the sound of Abe's fart! Munch's burp isn't as good but he makes up for it with the face he pulls during it in gamespeak

Anyways, Abe's story was meant to be larger in scale, in regard to his mother, but development troubles meant they had to remove her from the game.

like they removed everything that would make the game worth playing.
and it was annoying how they changed his fart! and he didnt even laugh after it! the only thing i liked about munch's burp is the quotes abe says after it like: dude, whats up with that? and: thats just wrong (that ones the best).

I actually liked Munch's voice. The game itself was mediocre, but I liked the Munch character and his voice.

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! 07-22-2010 03:32 PM

i liked his voice, i didnt like the game, i didnt like him, hmmm, i only didnt like him because he used abe, HE USED HIM, AWW! spam, spam, spam, spam. (plus right at the end all abe gets is; "you done good" cock.)

Jordan 07-22-2010 03:52 PM

In what way did he use Abe? If you mean when he asked Abe to help him get the last can of Gabbiar, that's not exactly using, it's asking a favour from a friend.

Sekto Springs 07-22-2010 04:12 PM

Neither of them wanted to help the each other, but the Raisin told them their destinies are one. In the end, alot of what they accomplished could have only been done with each other's help.

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! 07-23-2010 01:23 AM

yes but what did they accomplish? ok, the survival of the gabbits but, he still used him, i mean, after that he just fucked him off, and in what way was he asking a friend? theyed only just met? anyway nevermind.

Wil 07-23-2010 01:33 AM

Abe fucked Munch off? What does that mean? Should we be getting aroused or starting an intervention?

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! 07-23-2010 01:39 AM

no i mean, Abe did all that for him, and he doesnt get a thanks.

Wil 07-23-2010 01:41 AM

:

Thank you, Abe.


ODDWORLDisTHEbest! 07-23-2010 01:46 AM

oh, maybe he does, ermmmmmm, yeah but watch how he says it and then says, you did good, he acts like he's better than abe and knows more at this stuff. anyway just forget it.

Wil 07-23-2010 01:53 AM

I don't think it's that. I don't think he's saying "You done good" to mean "I approve of your methods and success rate", I think he means "You have done a thing for my benefit."

Sekto Springs 07-23-2010 02:11 AM

"I approve of your methods and success rate"
I'd love to hear Munch say this.

Yet again an example of Abe fanboyism.

why in AE and AO scrabs are so terrortorial and in MO they run in packs together?

My understanding (feel free to correct me) is that scrabs are only territorial in the scrabanian wastelands due to lack of food, in the wilderness region, theres plenty of food so theres no reason to compete,

also, you dont like Munch because of the tone of voice he uses when he thanks Abe? You must have a very short Christmas card list...

Ninjaxe 07-25-2010 04:31 AM

Oh speaking of Munch's voice, is Munch's sex male or female? I have always classed Munch's as male.

GlukkonGluk 07-25-2010 04:51 AM

Male, I assume. We don't encounter many female Oddworldians- in fact, the only ones I can think of are Irwin the Vyker, Sam and Lady Margaret...

Nate 07-25-2010 06:47 AM

Whilst Mudokons, Glukkons and Sligs are Eusocial species with a Queen and large worker caste, Gabbit society has both females and males on an equal level. That said, given that OWI have always used the male pronoun, we can probably assume Munch is a male.

Josh 07-25-2010 06:55 AM

If not, the species is doomed.

Well, it isn't a very good game. So, I guess, don't play it.

To be fair; its a decent game, but it certainly doesn't match up to the other games in the series...

Wil 07-25-2010 09:48 AM

Depends on whether you like collecting green blobs, rounding up sheep, and going "BOING" every time you step, jump and fall.

Does anyone else think Munch's voice sounds like Droopy the Dog?

Only if Droopy something seriously wrong with his throat.

No need to round up the sheep- simply pick up the meditating Mukokons, chuck them in front of the Tomahawker thingy, and change them. Now they will follow you. As you can see, I have played this game many many times ;). Going boing, though...that IS annoying.

Jordan 07-25-2010 02:44 PM

I thought it was so awesome when I could get control of the wheelchair, it was like a gift from the gods.

Holy Sock 07-25-2010 05:47 PM

It's been 21 days and we're still talking about Munch's voice? Damn.
