good observation. it's true. some giants mudokons? cool idea
anyway good vacation TheKhanzumer |
I dont think the entier evolution of odd world is backwards other wise the big animalls would slowly evolve into single cell organisms. Not verry likely.
Some things would seem the wrong way around but thats becous we live on earth. we are used to the idear birds came from reptiles. For oddworldians this idear would seem bizzar and the wrong way around. Oddworld evolution is different and the bacwards thing is onely a point of view. Evolution has created entierly diffent groups of animalls on oddworld then on earth. Things that cant be compared to things on earth, like fuzzles, they cant be placed in any kind of animall group we know. This is probably the case for all the creatures on oddworld. So the birds we talk about could turn out not to be birds at closer inspection, they could be cold blooded, Have feathers that are more scales then feathers, etc. And in sutch a case the logical step could be to evolve into "reptiles". Besides the mudokens look reptilian but they probably are wharm blooded thus he isn't a reptile in our sence of the word. |
most of your reply makes sense, but what i was trying to point out is that the evolutionary highway that Oddworld has taken is some what or is very different to earth. This does not mean that cromozone creatures will turn back to single celled organizms it is plainly saying that the pattern is different. I may be wrong but the birds you are addressing are clarified to be birds (i think) and i do not believe Mudokons to be cold blooded. Trust me i study Paleontology. The dinosaurs werent cold blooded at all because they had the ability to control there own body temperture. So just because you are a reptile it does not necessarelly mean you are cold blooded.:fuzblink:

I dot think mudokens are cold blooded either, I think the probaly are warm blooded considdering their active lifestyle.
What I am trying to point out is that bacwards is a relative term, gett of the beaten track, don't think in earth terms think in oddworld terms (what ever those may be). |
Well you see i dont know how else to put it. but if you think as OWI did, i would still say there concept of Oddworld at one point must have been to make it completely opposite of earth.
