Interesstings things
 
I was thinking of like posting interesting things like the gametalk in MO
(cos sadly there isnt any gametalk list for the enemy's) or any special observation lol

here is what i have noticed:
in the good ending intro,there you see lulu relaxed and his slig is sitting and reading the newspaper,i have noticed that the slig could blink.
I mean,if you look at the other intros with sligs,i couldnt see they could blink theyre eyes,could they?

and that the sligs from AO and AE has yellowgreenish sligs,a dn in Mo theyre more green and has orange red eyes with a yellow dot in theyre eye,first i tought it was somekind of misscolor on the game character,but i saw in the intro the valet slig (aka newspaperslig)has it as well o_O

Character development, my friend.

Glukkons went from babbling morons to Italian-mobster-accented, distinguished indaviduals.

Mudokons went from all being lip-stitched to having individuality.

Abe went from a high-voiced, lispy skinny guy with no teeth to a lower-and-more-nasely-voiced, dentally-intact character.

Fuzzles went from clean haired to messy, unkempt and even more volitile.

Characters develop for the better or worse over time. :)

Exactly right.

Hunk of Steef 04-12-2005 05:35 PM

Yes, I think I'm liking the character development so far.

SligLover_girly 04-12-2005 11:03 PM

ah yes i know that ^__^'

but i mean,is there no list over what htey actuly say,when unpossesed or when you control em?

in my case,here is what i think they say:

not under control:
Glukkons: mom gonna be so proud of a (or her) glukkon,everybody loves me,
i need a wallet as size as (im not sure something about wallet)
Enough about you, Lets talk about me,
How did I get so perfect,i'm on top of the world and i am beutifull. (note that glukkon have the same talk if possesed or not)

Sligs:
going up,do you get it,ha ha
laugh
he chump

Modukons:
(its really hard to hear em what they say but i know sometimes they talk about something with abe)

vykkers: oh you have poo poo
here hold this hi hi
wanna hear about your'e sister
(i am not sure what they say more,but they say that when controled or not)

possesed:

sligs:hey ugly,hey (im not sure of the rest)
poo brain,thats what i guess they say

big bro slig: you wazzit,you walk slower then your'e moma walking,
loser,and they also say a word with a laugh ending

other that has been better observant of the gametalk is welcome to post here ^_^'

lol but thats the gametalk and also the interessting thin i have observed lol

mudling 04-13-2005 12:37 AM

i think abe can control what people say when they are possesed, he says random things and what he hears from them to blend in, and not be noticed.
p.s. gluckons are genderless, but you call them he's, just like how you call wild animals hes (unless you know it is a she) and sometimes, objects shes.

SligLover_girly 04-13-2005 03:41 AM

hmm i guess i have think on that pretty much meself,but i guess for the sligs and vykkers,i guess he want to insult em for fun lol

oh,thats a very interessting thing,i didnt know that Glukkons was...but when the first intro with abe (in AO),didnt abe say "he" to molluck?

The Marching Mudokon 04-13-2005 03:56 AM

Abe does refer to Molluck as 'he' but I think it's the easiest thing to call Molluck because he doesn't sound like a female and it wouldn't fit in to the sentence if he called him a-sexual. There is no shortened word to use for an a-sexual creature (I think), like a male is a he... and well you know the rest.

mudling 04-13-2005 03:59 AM

maggie is the glockon queen, making the gluckons genderless drones, they are a super speacies. you can refer to them as its, but it sounds closer to earth by refering them as a he. they have the same case as mudokons and sligs, whos queens are sam and scuilla. we do not know much about this, but it was originally going to be put into munchs oddysee.

Dipstikk 04-13-2005 04:02 AM

Worker-class Glukkons are sterile males. No reproductive parts, just the persona of a male. The same is true for Mudokons and Sligs.

They are all born to a queen of their species/group.

The queen Mudokon, "Sam," is majorly a giant womb with a tiny body and a grandmothery smile.

The raunchy, sick looking Glukkon queen, "Lady Margaret," is almost termite-like, unable to move by themselves, and have Kinto Slaves to carry them around.
(Kintos are mainly small-bodied, large-armed creatures that transport her immense body around.)

The Slig queen is named "Skillya" (Possibly named after the character from The Odyssey bu Homer). We know nothing about what she looks like, only that she exists and that she's MEAN. She ships her sons off into the workforce as quickly as they are big enough to hold a gun.

Edit:
Dammit Mudling! How the hell are you so quick? :D

The Marching Mudokon 04-13-2005 04:04 AM

Yeah that's pretty much all the information their is on the queens except for more trivial facts like: Skillya is practically responsible for the slig race turning into sadists, Sam is depressed so she has too have the Shrink around her all the time and etc. If you want too know more I suggest asking Max or anyone else that has that much wealth of Oddworld information.

big bro slig #1 04-13-2005 05:48 AM

Correction on the big bro slig:

U wussy!

Does it smell in here or did your mamma walk in?

SligLover_girly 04-13-2005 06:22 AM

yes, i think i know what you mean ^_^'

i think its sad that there isnt much info on the queens (i only have seen small pics on the glukk n mudokon queens ^_^'

i really is curious how the slig queen look like O_o

The thing i think is weird is that the pic i saw on the glukkon queen,she didnt look at all like a glukkon wich puzzle me a lot OoO

oh and thanx for the correction ;P
I said that i wasnt exact on my guess what they say,so its ok to correct me lol

Nate 04-13-2005 02:52 PM

There is no complete gamespeak list for MO because there is (as you've pointed out) so much more of a range compared to AO and AE. Just like Abe no longer just says "Work!", he says "Can you help me out guys" or "A little elbow grease" etc.

:

Abe went from a high-voiced, lispy skinny guy with no teeth to a lower-and-more-nasely-voiced, dentally-intact character.

When did Abe ever have teeth?

tentacle_orgy 04-13-2005 03:03 PM

:

In Munch's Oddysee...The same with all of the Mudokons...Not a single Mud had teeth in AO oir AE, but they miraculously grew them in Munch's Oddysee.....

Nate 04-13-2005 03:35 PM

I don't remember seeing any teeth. Can you contribute some visual evidence?

'cos muds are supposed to be descended from birds so their dentistry should be as common as... hen's teeth.

mudling 04-13-2005 03:39 PM

art book p216, look realy closly and you can see teeth. i will find more examples shortly.
*edit* p199, p12

tentacle_orgy 04-13-2005 04:16 PM

Can you contribute some evidence?...
....That's what I thought...This one's for you, n_d_w....


Oh, and, dipstikk, don't even bother saying anything, as I know you're going to do...You don't have the right to "put me in my place"...

Dipstikk 04-13-2005 04:26 PM

You know what? I've heard that Muds were decended from birds too.
Here's how you tell.
The Native Mudokons have feathers on their head, as do SHaman, and the two warrior types.

Guess you should look at the evidence before blaring your horn?

Yeah, that is kind of wierd. Though, dinosaurs like sinornithoides had teeth, a beak and feathers. Mudokons could be a slight refrence to dinosaurs.

Well, guess what? I just did.

mudling 04-13-2005 04:32 PM

i'm sorry if i cuased this fight.
by the way, i have no real proof but you can sorta see teeth in the AO and AE pics of abe, it just wasn't very clear.
and tenticle orgy, muds have 3 fingers, not 5.

mudling 04-13-2005 06:36 PM

ok, sorr.... fine, get it over and done with. (picks up popcorn)
getting on topic, mukokons have a link with birds, becuase they can turn into them and make them appear. they ca also turn the birds into portals, and when you die, you turn into lots of little birdies. for some reason munch can also turn them into portals, which is a little bit dissapointing. i do not know if the are the MO birds, the birds for scrabania, a different kind or all of them.

Dipstikk 04-13-2005 06:43 PM

I think the birds that the Mudokons have a connections with are more symbolic in a way. Like, carrying Abe's spirit on the wings of birds or some corny stuff like that.

Hunk of Steef 04-13-2005 07:18 PM

Thats what I thought too, Dipstikk. In Mo there are no birds when you die.

Dipstikk 04-13-2005 07:22 PM

Hey, yeah! That's right! What the hell? That was my favorite theme and they just...just skip out on it like it's a cheap whore and you've found a chick with bigger cans than her and you're tired of that whore like I did!

Bah, I forgot about the lack of birdage in Munch. Maybe a slip, maybe?

Hunk of Steef 04-13-2005 07:24 PM

So many whores, such a short life. I wish I were made of birds.........

Dipstikk 04-13-2005 07:30 PM

Hahaha, okay. I'm sorry. We should get back on topic. :D

Well, you can. I'm due for bed.

Paco_the_Taco 04-13-2005 07:43 PM

There were birds in MO everytime you took a hit.

mudling 04-13-2005 07:45 PM

they were your life meter. and the industralists and chant supressors.

SligLover_girly 04-14-2005 12:05 AM

wow didnt notice you guy'es replyed a lot Lol
well i did read trough,i guess for the teeht sake (no fighting pleae again) i only want to say,that you can see the teeht part on a clip that oddworld site has,there abe flyes up and gets hit.

oh and for the gamespeak,why cant you guys just post your'e own gamespeak list? :)

if no other have done it on this forum of course ^_^'

oh and by the way,anything special somebody has noticed?

for me,i am still confussed why this valet slig can blink his eyes but not the other slig,any that know this answer? o_O

big bro slig #1 04-14-2005 06:43 AM

http://www.oddworld.com/downloads/mu...qtmovies.shtml

I think this could be what he was talking about. (Go to abe well)

AND maybe the blinking slig was born with some kind of "special ability"
