Simulation
 
Hey guys what if Lorne Lanning Made a Oddworld game just like the SIMS that would rule! being Munch, Abe, Molluk, having slogs and sloggies as pets cool huh I'll make a RPG about that!:fuzsmile: :fuzwink:

Xavier 06-19-2003 06:41 AM

uh... well why not but I prefer the kind of games he is making now

I heard some people wanted an Mario Party-like Oddworld Game, with mini games and stuff, but that doesn't seem to be OWI style.

Xavier 06-19-2003 08:21 AM

no, but some peeps talked about, that doesn't mean that OWI will make it

paramiteabe 06-19-2003 12:08 PM

I doubt they will do that. Oddworld is good the way it is now. Its action adventure and a puzzle game all combined in one huge package. That seems to fit Oddworld the best. Granted your idea would be intresting but OWI will not do that. Pretty much Oddworld is great the way it is now dealing with its action adventure and puzzle style gaming and not to mention very intended film makeing. Thats what I see Oddworld being and most importantly not changeing that style. Comeon Oddworld like the Sims? It sounds different but OWI is pushing their games to the limits of what they can possibly do. A game like the Sims would be sort of going backwards in their style of gaming. OWI does pretty much invent their own signature gaming style. Thats what makes Oddworld original.:D

Couldn't have put it better myself. There's your answer Abe16.

If there going to make a different style game, the only thing that would really work is an RPG. I actually hope OWI add more of an RPG feel to the games, It would be possible to add so much more depth. Besides, The Sims has been drawn out so long, it's no longer fun. Oddworld is about originality.

i dont think this topics worth closing...it's your idea/opinion and thats what yer supposed to post on this forum, but a SIM game wouldnt be oddworldish enough for oddworld fans, SIM fans maybe, but not for guys like us, though oddworld would probly draw more fans (mainly all SIM lovers) and make more money, it would be dirty money that would kinda shame oddworld's name.
i donno.....

oddguy 06-19-2003 11:55 PM

I think Oddworld is meant too stay odd, not turn into everything else, like a sim game or mini game. Oddworld is unique and I hope it stays that way! Odd till dee end!

Cloverfield 06-21-2003 03:05 PM

Please NO! The Sims is a lame excuse for a game and I don't understand why it is so popular. Oddworld doesn't need to sell out in that direction, and I doubt that they would anyway. It's not Oddworldish at all and is very un-original if they were to do that.

So NO!

Abe Babe...

GrigtheSlig 07-01-2003 10:16 AM

Itotally agree with you abebabe,
i've only played SIMS once and I about died of boredom!

Xavier 07-01-2003 04:16 PM

pesronally I can't understnad what if fun about the fun either...
but it is apparently a bestseller :fuzconf:

GrigtheSlig 07-01-2003 05:32 PM

It's probably a bunch of fat people with no live who buy sims, so they can get a new one! I like oddworld just the Way it is!

Xavier 07-01-2003 05:41 PM

not realy, I have a good friend and she love this game, but she actually have friends and a life

so I can't understand why she likes it

GrigtheSlig 07-01-2003 06:12 PM

OK, Im just not into it. But i'm sure that at least 2/3 of the SIMS buyers have no life!
