So Stranger is a good guy, Sekto's demon is a bad guy, and Clakkerz are just idiots.

THERE ARE NO FUCKING BAD GUYS

Okay?

Grieva 03-15-2010 12:56 PM

How do mudokons smell?

enchilado 03-15-2010 01:03 PM

Awful!

STM 03-15-2010 01:48 PM

HAHAHAHA oh dear a tear to my eye, with their noses =)

Grieva 03-15-2010 02:58 PM

hahaha you're so funny!

The question should have been "Where is a mudokons nose?" but that wouldn't have been as good a set up for ench.

Anyway, looked it up (as I should have to start with) and it seems it's in their forehead, naturally.

Just like with birds; nostrils at the top of the beak.

Okay?

Huh?

Grieva 03-15-2010 09:12 PM

It's the seeming lack of nostrils that got me

Huh?

ench was paraphrasing you to reply Lord Stanley

Lord Stanley 03-16-2010 01:26 PM

If Sekto's demon wasn't a bad guy, what would be the point of the game? It's a story! Even if Oddworld isn't like Earth, you still have senses of right vs. wrong! How else do you play games?

Wil 03-16-2010 04:04 PM

Obviously Stranger is the protagonist and Sekto is the antagonist. The point is, Sekto has rent to pay, a lifestyle to maintain, social ranks to rise through. He's not some evil genius born with The Malevolent Gene out to destroy civilization with no real motive. He's a financially successful product of society.

There is no good or evil: only power and those too weak to seek it.

See?

The game 'Oddworld:Stranger's Wrath' was left wide open for a sequel. why don't they make one?

Phylum 03-17-2010 01:06 AM

They aren't working on new games at the moment. They won't pursue games for a while...

Gwan-Thwei 03-18-2010 02:41 PM

but it was so popular! And they've made sequels for every other game, and since Abe is pretty much finished for the moment, then why not make this?

Another separate question....Why didn't they ever make that one 'slig storm'? and that other one about the guy who had rabies?

Look before posting in this thread. There's a link to a(n?) FaQ in the first post.

No it wasn't.

No they haven't.

Because SW didn't sell well at all.

Slig Storm was meant to be released with a box set of both AO and AE together. The box set never happened, so Slig Storm never happened.

Yes nate, kind words.

I wonder what the tradegy was? Perhaps the industrialists win?

MeechMunchie 03-19-2010 09:33 AM

Abe probably inadvertently dooms everyone.

Wil 03-19-2010 10:08 AM

The moons align and cause an eclipse that blows up Oddworld. All that environmentalism for nothing. It's tragic.

STM 03-19-2010 10:27 AM

heh awkward moment for abe

Oddworld Questions & Answers VIII has been born. Any new questions should be asked there. As usual, this thread will remain unlocked so you can still answer any unresolved questions from this thread.

Momentus spam!

The implication was that it would be a tragedy for everyone, not just for the Natives.
