I haven't been here for long so sorry if this question was already asked,
in abe's exodus abe had to use a train to get from feeco depo to slig barraks and boneworks, if he had to take a train to these places then how'd he get back? and for that matter how'd he end up at that door at the beginning of feeco? |
Maybe he used wells. Or maybe he did use a train, but there was no cutscene for it. I have wondered this too.
|
I've recently been questioning the logistics of the wells.
How do they even begin to work? |
magic gravity?
|
I've also been querying this. I have come to the conclusion, that at the bottom is an air piston-type thing, that pushes abe up in the other direction. Taking him to wherever he needs to be.
On the other hand though, in paramonia and scrabania, he comes out feet first. |
I always assumed it was some kind of tube system connected to a giant underground air-pumping tree. Though one would assume that the air seal between Abe and the well walls would be less than tight.
|
It definitely works on air-pressure, but how does he travel such vast distances in them?
|
More air pressure.
|
I'm convinced.
|
I'm still waiting for my answer about the trains in feeco...
|
In AO wells never appeared in Rupture Farms which gives me the impression they were made by mudokons. If so, why do they appear in industrial facilities in AE (and MO)?
|
Maybe RF jist had no need for wells.

I still want to know the answer to feecos magical doors. |

|
I guess...
I don't know why but the trains were my favourite parts. |
I can understand that, there was some brilliant scenery in some of those cutscenes.
|
what happens if you kill 150 and save 150 in Exoddus... I presume you are still presented with the good ending?
|
Maybe thats not possible? As theres certain ones you have to save. No, thats stupid. I don't know the answer. I think you'd get the good ending. Try it!
|
There's an Exoddus save file editor somewhere that would let you test every value of Rescues against every value of Casualties if you had that kind of patience.
|
I have another question
how come the boardroom in the intro is in zulag one (because that's where you start) but when you reach the end in zulag 4 the boardroom's there as well? unless they were built right next to each other which is a dumb design choice :P |
Abe ran quite far in the intro movie, and fell a significant distance. They're close, but not that close.
Also, Abe wouldn't have taken the most direct route from Zulag 1 to the boardroom. He needed to travel through all the Zulags to free the other Mudokons. |
Here's a question: why are the blind Muds in Exoddus white? Did they ever really give reason for this other than making it so you can tell them apart from the regular green Muds?
|
I don't know if this is canon or not, but I always assumed it was because they had been trapped underground in the mines for so long.
|
Mudokons are chameleonic to some degree. I figured the white palor was due to the trauma of having their eyes sewn shut, like how one's hair turns white in situations of extreme fear and distress. Or perhaps without the ability to see and react to their environment, their chromatophores go "dead" so to speak. Both of these phenomena have been documented in actual chameleonic creatures, so either way.
|
They're albinos. They can't see very well anyway, so the Glukkons put them to work in the mines.
|
They lose their skin pigmentation by spending so much time underground, in the dark. You can see the same effect in Sewer Slegs.
|
So basically the opposite of a tan?
|
Yeah, basically.
|
You get the same effect outdoors in England.
|
Believe me, I know.
|
I don't believe you.
|
What does Sic'em mean? The phrase seen on the Slog Kennels in Oddysee
|
Something along the lines of get them or kill them I think, its also heard on that movie 'Stand By Me' and the Family Guy spoof, but those are the only times I've heard it. I think its just 'fuck 'em up!' basically.

Ahh, so perhaps it's a sign of enlightenment or something? Thanks Maximus!
+rep |
I think it's the Mudokon symbol for their messiah (i.e. Abe). You have the eye in the "Bring us to the birds" message.
|
It makes sense, I thought perhaps the eye was synonymous with being enlightened with the power of chanting/shrykull. Both ideas are not dissimilar however.
