Playstation.blog interview with Lorne
 
Hello all,

I found a nice interview by Playstation.blog with Mr. Lorne Lanning.


http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/...-abes-oddysee/


I must say, I think this sums up why many of us love Oddworld: "So we targeted the anti-hero as our main character. Abe wasn’t the muscle-bound superhero that you wanted to be – he was the rather pathetic chump that you actually are."


Take care,
SOF

I'm glad that Lorne admitted the checkpoint system was a mess. I'll sleep well tonight knowing that was due to a time constraint.

That was a great read, Nice find. :)

:

Lorne Lanning’s beautiful side-scrolling fantasy adventure is one of the richest, most singular game worlds ever created and its hero, Abe, one of gaming’s most eccentric protagonists.

That's a perfect review. :3
