New 'n' Tasty unknown easter eggs (part 2)
 
Part 1: http://www.oddworldforums.net/showthread.php?t=22057

:

Speaking of Easter eggs and guest appearances, I'm just going to flat out say after hours of starring at my monitor for that "other" oddworld character that is briefly shown in the background in NnT, that I've given up cuz it didn't show up. It's not the albino slig at Alfs bar in Alfs escape, that was confirmed I think. But I'm summoning Wil to just tell us cuz I'm over it now. Unless one of you lot has found that Easter egg?

So, who are the "2 new sort-of-characters"? Is there really something to be found?

V_O_T 03-17-2016 06:23 PM

Gilray said at some point in an interview or article that the Easter egg is in game but is generated randomly. Even he doesn't know when it'll pop up. But I screen recorded certain parts of the game where sligs patrol in the background and their areas for hours and hours and when played back nothing came up..

Has anyone gone through the files yet?

Vlam 03-20-2016 07:24 AM

Wil confirmed it was a hoax.

Holy Sock 03-20-2016 08:08 AM

No he didn't, vlam. He said he didn't know the answer. It's Matt Glanville you want.

Vlam 03-20-2016 08:12 AM

Holy Sock, Wil said it in a diplomatic way.

kjjcarpenter 03-20-2016 09:21 AM

Perhaps they didn't make the final version of the game and no-one at JAW realised.

Honestly, it smells like a hoax. Super secret kind-of characters who generate randomly somewhere in the background? Seems like mediocre PR to keep the game relevant.

Wil 03-20-2016 10:15 AM

Like three posts and already I can't say anything without it being extrapolated to fuck.

Vlam 03-20-2016 10:27 AM

Wil, who are the "2 new sort-of-characters"? The masses want to know.

Wil 03-20-2016 10:37 AM

I've already told you I don't know. Would you like me to find out?

Vlam 03-20-2016 10:39 AM

Could you ask Glanville (with your authority)? I thought you were the one behind the idea of easter eggs (like Stranger HD).

Wil 03-20-2016 12:46 PM

Don't worry, I found out what they are.

It's Vlam. That's what he does.

Kjjcarpenter said the same thing. Furthermore, the members of OWI have found nothing so far.

That would be swell. If there are any that we missed that is.

Wait, do you guys mean the Steef in the FFZ??

V_O_T 03-20-2016 10:48 PM

There's a steef in the FFZ???????

Pics?

Yes, it may be a hoax (if I'm allowed to say).

That one rock that looks like a slog's head...he's standing up against it smoking, I mean I know he's semi silhouetted but it's still pretty obvious it's Steef. I'll try upload a pic at the weekend if you want.

Vlam 03-22-2016 02:17 PM

FFZ?

Holy Sock 03-22-2016 02:31 PM

Free Fire Zone.

And can you tell us?

Wil 03-24-2016 06:53 AM

Gee, I guess I could do that. Or, I could give you a clue! They are a variation of something you already know. I've spotted one of them in Paramonia, I'm going to check out Scrabania next.

FennecFyre 03-24-2016 07:37 AM

Wil, you're a bigger tease than the Soulstorm ARG.

Varrok 03-24-2016 07:39 AM

Wil is good at giving hints, but not at taking them

Wil 03-24-2016 08:08 AM

I've tried ROT13 but I still don't get it.

Is it Gas Bladders.

Gas Bladders was my most memorable character from Abe's Oddysee, I too am glad they thought of the long time fans and included the Gas Bladder character

Varrok 03-24-2016 10:49 AM

Are gas bladders considered mechanical?

JayDee 03-24-2016 03:29 PM

Considering it's a variant of something then perhaps we should be looking out for Liquid Bladders? Or Solid Bladders.

Wil 03-24-2016 04:52 PM

It's not a bladder of any phase.
