Here are my thoughts:
The current chapters in the Quintoligy have hinted signs of a western-based society. Abe's Exoddus is the best example. The train systems, the bone mines (remminescent of gold mines), and the shirrif-style dress of General Drippik all have lead me to believe that Oddworld would be based on the Old West.
The Clakkerz: Why not? When I saw the X Factor during the summer, I broke out laughing. Oddworld has never failed us on the element of comedy, and Clakkerz probably serve that element. So why all the hubub, bub? It's not like they're playable characters or anything. And besides, what did you expect, ostriches? Chickens fit the role perfectly. Barnfolk=Barnfowl.
And I think OW4 will do fine. Remmember the hype from Munch?
It'll be the same. You'll all love it.
Now shaddap an' gimme a dollar for my friggin' speach.
