Lorne interviewed by 4Player Podcast
 
A written interview by 4PP. In it Lorne talks about where much of his inspiration for Oddworld came from, Stranger's Wrath, game design, CG, chickens and more...
He also confirms that they're still working on exciting things. Not that we didn't know already, but it is refreshing to hear!

Not much in there which we didn't already know. Though Lorne's story about his childhood and his grandfather was inspiring and interesting to read. I really wished he could tell us a little bit more about current projects, though.

And I love the Bush comment :lol:.

I laughed at the story about the inspiration for the Clakkers.

Is this interview in podcast or audio form? I want to listen to it when at the gym... or do I have to read it? D:

It's not audio, oddly enough, so don't let the name fool you. I really wish he'd go on another podcast though. For the past few years he's been featured everywhere, now there's almost no trace of him at all :(

This was an excellent interview! Thanks for sharing.

It's amazing they still can't tell us what they are working on right now, I guess we still have to wait.

They do have a podcast (not with Lorne himself), talking for about 1 hour and 45 minutes about Strangers Wrath. Kinda cool they brought that back to the attention. Spoilers warning though!!!
In the end they discuss this entire written interview.

That was a very interesting read from a game developer point of view. Thanks for the link.
