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.
|
|
None from oddysee, unless it's a Mudokon squinting really hard.
|
It's a Mudokon after you turn off the laughing gas. Dropping air pressure and all that.
|
That's obviously the front-view of the Shrykull, it just looks like an eye. It's hard to give a beak perspective in that style.
|
It done got no uvula.
|
Plus it's missing a pair of arms, even if you justify the legs with perspective and/or style.
|
I mean that it was a mud with a floating Shrykull head, not that I really think that.

Does anyone know why the fuzzles in SW look different than the other games?
And does Stranger simply not have horns, or did he have them removed? If he had them simply sanded off, they would just grow back... |
:
The Fuzzles in Munch were captively bred for specific features that made them good for testing. That's why they look different. :

...hehehe, reminds me of that time you all convinced me stranger was a girl. Excellent trolling. |
