Yeah, I guess.

Um...they are.

If you're talking about a sudden, mass revolution...it's a bit more complicated then that. Some are drunk of SoulStorm Brew. Some just don't care, or are hopeless. Plus, the industrialists do have technology on their side.

A revolution may be possible one day...but not yet.

Abe16 05-09-2005 08:29 PM

Yeah, since some of the muds care about their freedom, they might fight back, or just stand back.

sligco 05-10-2005 05:26 AM

i mean he thinks they should all just fight all of them at 1ce

T-nex 05-10-2005 06:06 AM

Yea they should...

This topic has no point... :rolleyes:

sligco 05-10-2005 06:12 AM

ya and neither do u this o shoot it was supposed 2 b a poll

T-nex 05-10-2005 07:50 AM

Then go edit your post. U can still make a poll, unless i remember wrong.
Btw, at least i make more sense than u...

Dipstikk 05-10-2005 08:06 AM

Stop. Until you both type like normal people, neither of you are better than the other.

(Hints: "u" should be "you," "o" should be "oh," "2" is never a good replacement for "to" or "too," "b" should be replaced with "be" and both of your "i"'s should be capitolized.)

And don't give me that "Oh, but typing like that is much faster" bullshit. If you can take the time to log onto the internet, you can sure as hell take time to type a real sentence.

On topic:
Yeah, I think the natives are headed toward a revolution against the industrialists. It's only a matter of time before the industrialists do something that crosses a line that shouldn't be crossed, and causes the natives to snap.

T-nex 05-10-2005 08:33 AM

lol...

Anyways, here's a question..
But first, a lil' quotation:

"If you're talking about a sudden, mass revolution...it's a bit more complicated then that. Some are drunk of SoulStorm Brew. Some just don't care, or are hopeless. Plus, the industrialists do have technology on their side."

So, the question is: How in Odd's name are you gonna get all the natives together?

off-topic: I use chat-speak to a minimun, which I think is acceptable. It's my style of posting, don't diss it.

Munch's oddysee was the first step to the revolution... and you can notice that in that game Mudokons are beginning to fight back.

OddAlchemist 05-10-2005 01:11 PM

Im sure if all the Mudokons grouped together the industrialists would have an easier time wipeing them out with a bomb or an ambush of sligs.

sligco 05-10-2005 01:44 PM

ya i think they wouldbrobably have 2 attack the skillya first than there would be a minumum of sligs then they can start taking down the sligs slowly but that would take a while than also interns and vykers would have 2 be destroyed
offtopic:i dont usualy try 2 chatspeak it just comes out and wen im in a hurry i do plus chatspeak is my style of posting as well

As a Mod I'm asking you to avoid chatspeak here

A bomb, yes. An ambush of sligs would get wrecked trying to jump an army of Mudokens. Plus, seeing as how they're all native, the essentially have an infinite army.

*chuckle*

Indeed. Boom.

Anyway, not all muds realise that they are being taken advantage of. Abe thought he had a good job, remember? He wouldn't have thought that if he believed he was being taken advantage of. Abe was the first, hopefully, of many. The news of Abe is still spreading through the industrial mud community. MO was the first time (to my knowledge) that enslaved muds were aware of Abe.

(Just added the underline before someone told me about the warm welcome he recieved for the native/freed muds and someone else had to point out that I said enslaved. See that? That's foresight :p )

Ewww, I hope OWI never advocate armed revolution. Surely they're the people to preach a peaceful solution (even if Star Trek's already done it). Peaceful and subtle revolution really is the way to go, and it would be completely in tune with Mudokon ideology. Using nature to simply disable Industrial operations would be an ace alternative.

I hated the fact that Mudokons were so violent and trigger-happy in MO. An eternal stain on their character!

Xavier 05-15-2005 07:34 AM

quite true, violence doesn't fit mudokons...
but the revolution in MO was more like an untought reaction to their oppression, I think that once many mudokons are in liberty they will adopt a more calm and peacefull attitude

Nate 05-15-2005 05:53 PM

Let's not forget that the destiny of the Quintologists is to bring balance to the force*, I mean Oddworld. It's not to overthrow the industrialists completely.

*Bows down before Dipstikk.*

Anyway, we've been learning about the US black slave revolts in the south in history this year. None succeeded. The, "best," one just left a load of people dead. Leaders can be snagged or snitched on. People can be intimidated. The slave masters can just order everyone to be blown to smithereens. All this is applicable to Oddworldian society.

On top of that, we know that A) Muds are a peace-loving society, and B) Not all industrial muds are in chains and, that said, not all probably mind the violent consumer culture they co-exist with.

Xavier 05-16-2005 04:51 AM

the problem is that some muds even like their job...
The way I see things is that muds need to break free and hide back in their lost cities, and from there start a peacefull revolution.

but breaking free can't allways be done peacefully.
