Abe shut the power down before he was captured. He’s already contained in his cell when the Shrink gets to him. It must not have been on the same grid as the factory machinery.

D'oh!
Well, when he had shut down the power in FMV, he said he shut most of it down, but not all. I assumed that after Abe escaped and Rupture Farms was permenately shut down, the Shrink no longer had any power to work off of. |
I kind of figured that, while the Shrink is a real and canon character, that scene is not. What with the Shrink telling Abe what to do despite the fact that he has already done it all, and the recordings of grisly deaths that obviously never took place.
|
Maybe, being a shrink, he's cracking into abe's mind, and making him think that he's doing it or something.
Anyways, do we know where this scene is set? Since the shrink was rellocated to Vyker's labs, but then again, there are alot of shrinks. |
Shrinks aren’t relocated. It’s cheaper just to scrap them and build new ones.
|
Oh ok.
But isn't there reference to a speacific one, that is suicidal and hates it's job, I thought that was the one taking care of Abe, or was it Sam's personal shrink? |
That’s Sam’s Shrink [and that’s a very hard sentence to speak out loud]. Of the two of them, Sam is the suicidal one, and the Shrink has to keep her alive and laying Mudokon eggs, but it hates her. It also knows it’s only a matter of time before Sam manages to overdose, at which point its own existence will become pointless. This Shrink plots to escape Vykkers Labs, but being because its physical connection to the ship is the only way it can receive power and control its motion, it hasn’t come up with a good plan yet.
|
I wonder if the Shrink wanting freedom would ever be a game element in MO.
|
Is it possible the Shrink could sort of get its own little storyline in the upcoming Oddworld game about Abe?
|
Upcoming game about Abe? You mean film, right? Possibly, but if it’s going to at all I’d wager it’ll be in Munch’s film.
|
Film about Abe? I thought they were making citizen Ceige, but if they are making an Abe movie, I think they should leave the games, and just create an entirely new story surrounding Abe. People don't need to know his backstory, It can be a mystery to thouse who just watch, and those who care will probably find out on wikipedia or something.

Regarding this early Munch screen at the end of Abe’s Exoddus… I just watched it. Whoa, I’ve never seen that or known about it. Even old Muds like me can learn new things. :D
|
A question about Abe's exoddus - the movie: has it been watched in San Luis Obispo's cinemas or where has it been watched?

If Squeek's Oddysee would have come after Munch's Oddysee would Abe and Munch be with him? Or just Squeek and Abe?
|
Abe, Munch, and Squeek would work together and all be fully playable.
|
Abe seems to be gathering up some sort of a posse composed of the weirdest species he can find. When will Alf be playable? That's what I wanna know.
|

|
I don't think BM is actually asking that question. I think he's just saying that he wishes he could play as Alf.
|
Not in any of the other quintoligy games, I hope...
I was wanted a new speacies, but as a side character mission, like when Abe and crew are locked up or battling Sam or something (Yes I'm joking, we all know Sam isn't actually evil...), and then Alf decides to leave his rehab and save them or something. Little sidemissions like that would be great, not mini games though, I think those would fail, maybe the last game for the quintoligy, where everything OWI can put into it, they do. Or maybe as a side game, like SW, hmm, could be tied into the old albino slig idea, I always liked Alf, the slig too. |
Wouldn't playing Alf be like playing Abe but without the chanting abilities and even more clumsiness?
Doesn't sound too interesting to me... |
I know after AE, besides MO, were supposed to be two series of games: Fareitales and Habitales series. Hand of Odd was a Habitales game. I think, if that game would had success, OWI would had continued that series. And then Fareitales series. But what do we know about those mysterious series?
|
Hand of Odd was never released sadly...
Anyway Fearitales are supposed to be about the truly dark, spiritual and ghostly side of Oddworld |
The fight of native species agains industrial species that destroys and pollutes the world and that kills creatures? And the game without any arms, where you must do everything alone without any help? Is it right?

Except it only seems to appear on the PC version.
|
Oh :( Well, Microsoft seem to be advertising for their future competitor. Sort of.
Anyway, I was going to ask, why did Lady Margerette need to have a Gabbit's lungs? |
Becuase of her obsene smoking habbits shared with most Glucks, the reason she wants new ones was either beyond repair, or due to the attitude, instead of fixing it, we'll just get a new one"
