Yours is probably a fairer criticism than mine Dipstikk, maybe it doesn't have to be a zero-sum game between story and humour. But like you say, more focus on character developement and the wider...

I agree that nothing really captured the same atmosphere after AO, due to the more comical tone. Some of the natives' spirituality and the industrialists' sinister appearance were lost when every...

I always thought a few Paramites in the stockyards would be cool, nice work.

As an infrequent member here, I just want to stay how glad I am that this community exists. I think that OWF has had a significant positive impact on the future of Oddworld in various ways and I...

I thought some of Abe's speech wasn't that great either though, like it wasn't spoken clearly or the audio quality wasn't good or something, I don't know. On the other hand I like the varied...

Yeah I'd assume the voices are place holder like the chanting and exploding effects, I hope so anyway.

Nice to see Lorne in public again, and that game footage is glorious. I have absolute faith that Oddworld is in the right hands now. Despite the complete rework, the aesthetic is spot on.

Beautiful.

Although it's super-impressive for pre-alpha, I think it's fair to offer our thoughts now since it's easier to take them on board at this stage (if they're worth taking on board at all)...

Does Max or anyone else know what some of these graphics options are? I'm not sure how to set them to get better performance:

This is fantastic, I didn't expect to see anything as substantial this soon! The original game still looked pretty perfect to me even today, but seeing it side by side with the new image it finally...

Well, it might be bringing up an entirely different debate, but treating digital media as a service instead of a product seems to have worked for things like Steam and Netflix. I'm not saying those...

The problem is that illegal downloading isn't just a few bad apples actively seeking to screw over hard working people, it's more like an inevitable result caused by the accepted definition of...

I agree that it's silly to argue that piracy is morally right just to justify doing it, but I don't feel terrible about doing it either. I see lots of people say that they pirate stuff to see what...

Slig Barracks was one of the best parts of either game in level design and atmosphere, I must say. Getting past an actual army of Sligs, infiltrating a Glukkon's office and possessing him really...

It's nice to imagine what the ideal game would be like, but are we seriously discussing changing huge swaths of gameplay just to remove red rings and make Shrykull's appearance more impressive near...

Writing like that could probably be interpreted as a myriad of different regional accents from anywhere that speaks English... but I had no problem reading it as an over the top New York(?) accent.

Any embarrassment I feel about liking something is purely based on the people around me. The things I like are relatively mainstream, but it's a minefield trying to predict what other people like,...

Oh, another thing was that I didn't know you could take cover from background Sligs. the part where you first enter the Scrab temple was just a mad scramble to try to avoid getting shot. I also...

Speaking of missing the obvious solution, I completed everything up to the end of Scrabania without even knowing you could do a running jump to grab a ledge. I thought you had to stand still and jump...

When I was young on my first playthrough on that area, I didn't press the factory shut down since it told me not to. I was worried I would die or something, and have to do the nightmare slog section...

I don't think there would be many civilian passengers in the Feeco Depot, I thought that it was just the centre of a network of industrial workplaces that are out in the wild/native area of Mudos,...

I had to come here to check whether this was a bandwagon in-joke type thing or a full on pony coup d'etat of the website.

It's unfair to judge a show that I've never seen before, bronies on the...

I liked how the game only gave you tutorials on a need to know basis, a lot of the early puzzles were based around limited knowledge of the game, like not knowing how to possess etc. It also tied in...

I think I remember that Lorne once said that he preferred screen-by-screen since it was more cinematic - like using multiple cameras in a film - and that side-scrolling was more like a cartoon. He...

How about just shortening the overly long ones? It is fun to shoot them, but after ten or twenty slogs in a row it gets annoying and there's no additional challenge by having more, except one of...

That reminds me, does anyone else hate when they possess a slig and it gets shot instantly by another slig? It was cool and realistic at first but after that it's tedious having to possess twice. I'm...

Is there any problem implementing multiple control layouts? Even just "normal" and "classic" modes swapping jump and crouch would probably be enough to please most people.
