I really thought that Oddworld coulda been huge. I know I said it before, but Mudos is a fantastic concept. It could have been the next Cthulhu Mythos or Star Wars, or Lord of the Rings. Okay, maybe not THAT big, but big none the less. Inspirational and influential to entire genres. It could have been friggin' huge. Its a shame because the whole thing appears to have gone tits up.
I believe at the very least Lorne owes us books explaining Oddworld further. The Oddworld He wanted, I wanted, and every fan of Oddworld wanted. After all the b.s., after all of the hype, after all of the projects that failed to be big and just failed to be. His fans were loyal to him for pretty much a decade, I've followed Oddworld for over half my life. This is the least he owes us and his fans.
