Running speed = rolling speed.

That is all.

I think they intentionally changed that to make certain puzzles a little harder. But boy, did it fuck with the old fans :lol:

Completely ruined the game, it's barely noticeable so you don't realise it until halfway into the game in the Paramonian Temple where the puzzle seems impossible until you realise they messed it up and you have to start rolling at the last second. Not to mention it's not stated at any point. Absolutely pointless "addition".

I always rolled at the last second in the original anyway. Not least because responding to a horde of ravenous monsters with a ludicrously extended rolly-polly is really dumb.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't a full running speed in the original anyway. The scrabs would catch me sooner when I'm rolling than when I'm running.

I want a short bonus campaign based around Sligstorm. Playing as a slig escaping from the Barracks. That would be really neat.

Definitely was the same speed in the original, rolled my way through the entire last level of the mudomo vaults back in the day.

Fucking Sonic players.

- Better game performance
- Better voice acting: the transition between the Stockyards and Monsaic Lines in NnT is, for example, quite horrible and emotionless; it felt as if someone were reading the lines without caring much for actually voice-acting them.

Game performance? Which version did you play? Cause the PS4 and PC versions play flawlessly.

The PC one, it plays fine at the beginning, but gradually becomes slower and slower. Maybe a memory leak?

You do realize that Lorne Lanning voiced Abe in every game, right?

He’s talking about the voice acting performance, not the voice itself. The same voice actor can do good and bad readings.

Havoc 05-15-2015 02:56 AM

Gotta agree on the voice acting. Sometimes the lines feel a bit rushed and squeezed in, though this might be in part due to the editing and in part due to the narrative nature of the text. In Exoddus it's actual characters talking on the screen most of the time, so there can be more emotion there hopefully.

Either get rid of the silly loading captions or improve them. It's like a child used a thesaurus to write them, or like I wrote them 'cause I suck at English language. Most of them just sound forced and silly. Try to make the loading times quicker.

Going on what JAW have said, 2 titles will be shown at E3 or an earlier event.

How would you guys feel if a new title/protag set in the oddworld universe is shown?

Manco 05-16-2015 10:59 AM

If they announced a brand new Oddworld game it would probably mean the Exoddus remake would take a pretty big hit in publicity and sales. I expect a side-game or small project, not a major new sequel.

Nate 05-16-2015 11:11 AM

Given JAW has talked about several non-Oddworld projects recently, I wouldn't get your hopes up for whatever they're going to announce.
