I never thought of that being outside, just a large space filled with smog and an eerie orange hue because of the smog and how deep the place actually is.

Why Oddworld is called Oddworld ?

Because it's odd, perhaps? You don't have to be a fucking brain sergeon to figure that one out.

I want to kill myself -.-

So do I. You see, I've really- Oh wait, were you being sarcastic? Anyway, my question is Why is the smoke orange?

Aesthetic purpose, every other answer would be a lie

Actually I think it's because of sprout gas...

I don't think those areas were intended to be viewed as outside.

It could be possible, though - perhaps the orange lighting comes from a mix of the air above being so thick with smoke it blocks out the sky, and a strong unnatural light coming from deep below Abe's current level.

Even if that's not case, it sounds cool and might be a good idea to explore for NnT.

Because Offworld sounded a bit off...

Oh nice

Sprout gas is green. Duh

We don't know

Thank you, Nepsotic, for explaining the fucking joke.

We have the power

I was afraid he wouldn't know

If everyone knows about the threads people reference then there will be no elitism amongst the older members. Don't cramp our style, Nep.

That's enough, y'all.

I can't remember the last time I asked a question in this thread, but here goes. Is the following claim true, or just one of Wil's 'jokes'?

It was printed in the art book.

This is interesting. If the muds don't know any better and think they have a decent life, why oh why would they choose to follow Abe and jump trough his bird portal? Even more so after the events at Rupture Farms and the Magog propaganda about Abe being a terrorist. If the muds really think they are doing a good job you'd think they would actually try to stop him from getting to his goals.

Read some North Korean defectors stories.

Or 1984.

How about a quick summary?

Who wouldn't trust a first class floor-waxer?

Aside from Mullock's trial and Abe meeting Sam, what was cut from Munch's Oddysee?

I believe there was supposed to be more interaction with nature of some sort. They would visit Mudokon villages and there was supposed to much more interaction in and around factories. Look up Munch's Oddysee Beta footage on YouTube to get an idea.

Storywise there was brief talk of Munch being able to transform into some sort of huge monster and I recall something about visiting the ruins of Rupture Farms.

Another thing that was cut from the game was Molluck being put on trial by Queen Maggie for not taking good enough care of RuptureFarms and Soulstorm Brewery. There were different character classes such as overweight, underweight, and injured. There were a few scrapped creatures, such as MudFlubs, Sea Rexes, Meetles, Mugs, Chroniclers, and Skeeters.

Aren't Meetles the large transport ships Lulu uses to get to Vykers Labs?

No. Meetles are massive beetles.

The clue's in the name. Industrially brutalise them and you get a Mug, the origin of Wil's former username.
