Mudokon Voices
 
Why do most mudokons speak in a muffled voice? I want to know why. Their voices sound like they stuff food into their mouth, have a disability or after they go to a dentist and their faces are numb. I speak in a muffled voice when my face is numb. But why do the mudokons talk in a muffled voice?

Because of all the pies

If by muffled you mean quiet, then i'd assume it's because they've been trying to avoid beatings their entire life, and you don't want to be caught chatting with others when you're a slave.

If you mean they just sound weird... uhhh... mouth shape/structure?

Could be the stitches in their mouths...

I always thought Abe was the only one with that?

You know, I am shocked I said that, shocked I tell you! :fuzblink:

It is true, it is only Abe.

Maybe drinking so much Soulstorm Brew gives them muffled voices, like a drunkard slurring his speech, as they do get addicted to the stuff.

There is no Soulstorm Brew in Abe's Oddysee.

STM 06-01-2016 09:55 PM

Yeh but Nep, there's Soulstorm brew outside of Abe's Oddysee.

JayDee 06-01-2016 11:53 PM

There was Soulstorm Brew in New N' Tasty get with the new canon, Nep.

Nepsotic 06-02-2016 05:04 AM

I don't count NnT as canon.

It's almost like saying: "I don't believe in microbes".

No. By muffled, I mean the depth of their voices. It sounds so soft and liquidy that you can't hear it increased. Only Abe has a half muffled voice.

Not sure I understand the point of this thread.

Because Lorne voiced them that way
?

Varrok 06-03-2016 07:36 AM

He means, from the lore perspective

given that AE starts immediately where AO left off, soul storm brewery and mining company were most likely already around though, right?

That's what I thought, but I've been told otherwise.

There is no lore perspective, there is only the Lorne perspective.

I just realised! That muffled voice they have...

IT IS A LATERAL LISP THE MUDOKONS HAVE WHICH CAUSES THEM TO TALK IN MUFFLED VOICES!!!!!

Paul 06-25-2016 09:44 AM

Maybe it was just low sample rate in psx sounds
