What i think the next oddworld should be like
I love stranger's wrath. tons better than munch. no one get offended, i appreciate munch for what it was. but like everyone else, cannot escape being affected by the hype. but i digress...
i would love to see oddworld take the next quintology game back to 2d. i know this is a joke but what i really want is the same feel and vibe of abe's oddysee.
when it started, you just get this chilling feel. this understanding of organic structure, that ur surrounded by life. The intro screen was just the best with the organic sounds and life forms making calls. What im trying to say is that the orginal abe game left the best impression of life...and death. The fact that it portrayed life in its strengths and weakness was stunning. yes, one bullet will most likely kill you. This just added to the atmosphere. It made it so suspensful and even scary, because you feel for the character and begin to relate to him. almost as if he dies, you die. This was just superbly done.
Oddworld needs to bring back game speak. It was just so revolutionary. The level of the gamespeak in abes exoddus was stunning. (what happend in MO! NO Hierarchy, what gives? i digress...). i would love to see this done in the same fashion in the next quint game.
While Stranger is much closer than MO to bringing back the original oddworld ambience, i have sadly noticed that oddworld is taking more of a cartoony approach with dark undertones rather than dark satire of the original two with comedic undertones. Please guys, make us feel the life and death of the orginal oddworld games again!
