even though its impossible:
1. He wouldn't dissappear, he would have never have existed beyond the point where abd is chucked in the meat grinder,(I watch a lot of Doctor Who)
2. It wouldn't happen anyway because it didn't.

3. Like AvengingGibbons said, it wont be abe from the future because its just downright stupid, why would BigFace kill his past self? No, this isn't Misfits.

There has also been a lot of discussion about how the paw/handprint on the moon came to be, but I wont go into that now .

Stitching people's lips shut.

Oh.. I thought Abe's mum did that.. Sam? So he wouldnt disturb the farm animals by crying? I can't remember..

Ive heard that too, but if it is, how come all the mudokon signs in ao and ae have stitched lips?

The accepted canon is that the hand on the moon appeared long ago, and was ultimately what caused the antagonism between the Mudokons and Glukkons.

Lorne's original idea was that a meteor shower forming the print occurred right before Abe escaped RuptureFarms, but he decided it was far too "deus ex machina" and worked it into their backstory.

That seems right, but what about munchs moon?

We mostly pretend it's not there...

well im a science type of a guy :P XD

I do that with the entire game

Hey, he said something genuinely funny!

Let's get him a present.

Thank you, i'm glad to know you guys share my views about MO

I think the ending depends on which quarma you complete it with. But I'm hoping the perfect ending will cannon.

Actually, the Dark Quarma ending is canon. Everything after Abe's Oddysee is just Raisin dreaming. Including the existence of Raisin.

Are you sure you're currently not the one inside of your dream? I mean, if you exist...

...wait, who am I talking to... Wil? Who's Wil?

Anyway, back to the topic yes, of course the perfect endings are canon, theres no debate there.

No. All of the bad endings are canon. Abe dies three times over the course of the series.

Wil said AOs bad ending was canon. Who are you to argue with him? He works at JAW.

EDIT: Dammit, MM.

So abe only saved about 50 muds? Even though he said he saved 99 in ae, and all the muds in ae are suddenly cheering for himeven when he killed 50, and it carrieson from the ao good ending? So much evidence, have you considered that Wil may have been joking? Or are you messing with me?

nods oddysee fall 2015

Well so it goes for nods oddysee.

Its strange to think that without GT's name change from SoulStorm to Abes Oddysee, we would never have the main Oddysee title.

There's so much wrong with that, a perfect example of why I can't stand the Oddworld Wiki. Why won't anyone be my damn web dev. :(

I started the Oddworld Wiki together with a friend (GameFreak) :p I just checked and I still have admin status after all this time.

Funnily enough, I also founded the Diablo Wiki, and still have admin status there too.

But I haven't edited either of them in years =P

Should I make you an admin at the Oddworld Wiki (and the same question applies to Nate and Xavier)?

I think he'd prefer it if every page on the wiki linked directly to the equivalent page on TOL. But he'd be too polite to say so.

Well it can always come handy to have access to it. So yes please :)

Ok :)

Is this you?

Who is responsible for this little nugget of information?

I think it is talking about the start of Abe's Exoddus, when the Big Face says thanks to Abe and then pats him in the back, and he falls. He didn't die then though, so I've just corrected it, thanks for pointing it out.

ah well, no Wiki's are perfect

I am not sure, I tried to send myself a new password and I haven't received any mail yet.

Ok, let me know when you know what your username on wikia is.

Didn't Abe die from smashing his head after falling off a cliff in the middle of the night and landed on the ground in broad daylight in a completely different environment even though he only fell for a few seconds and then some Big Face appeared and announced his deadness to him?

The bad endings most certainly are 100% canon. Abe died all of those times and then some. And by some I mean every single in game death you had while playing through the games for the first time.

I don't think he landed in daylight. It was more like some kind of ethereal spotlight put in for the sake of theatricality. Or you could rationalize that it was "the light", and Big Face intercepted his journey to the afterlife to tell him his true purpose and revive him.

Spoiler: Big Face is really the Pyro.

Hudda hudda.

Bigface is clearly a fanboy.

I think it was metaphorical, in that he wasn't really dead, "just" dying and near death, when the Big Face came and healed him.

God dammit guys, stop ruining my fun.

I'm pretty sure it was metaphorical, but it still doesn't explain why moments after landing in the middle of the night it was suddenly day time again. The trek back to Rupture Farms made more sense because I can see it taking more than a day to complete the Scrabanian + Paramonia challenges and returning at night because it would be easier to infiltrate in the dark, but the damn moon was high in the sky and there was no sunrise to be seen from the first go through the Stockyards.

I was going to pick at how he was just miraculously brought back to life, but this is Oddworld. If you can possess pretty much anything that moves just by "channeling" your energy through chanting, burst into a flock of birds when you die, and exclusive to MO you can revive pretty much everyone an infinite amount of times, I can see a random shaman just approaching him after he smashes his head and bringing him back to life.

My point still stands. Those bad endings were entirely canon things that happened. Yep. Time fuckery may or may not have been involved. I'm perfectly cool with accepting they were all alternate timelines based on what decisions Abe made.

Abe could have been lying there for a few hours until Big Face found him in the morning or something. It could have just taken a few seconds in the cutscene.

Hmmm as I remember when abe fell from that top he said that he smashed his head until some big face appeared and said he was dead.

It's pretty clearly a mystical circle of light and not normal daylight, given the way that Bigface is not visible beyond the circle of light but appears as he walks through the perimeter. If it was normal daylight, he'd be visible from any distance.
