Surely AO must both include RuptureFarms and his spiritual quests in natice lands? It wouldn't do it justice to rush that.
Yes, Nate, everyone realises that it won't be exact replicas, and the games are conversions of the stories. But how much could they have changed to the plot set by the FMVs? Surely they can't do AE and cut out any of the characters (such as the Glukkons), and that would suggest visits to their respective areas.
Obviously there will be a great deal more character interaction.
Ultimately, the games were released before the films. Fans are familiar with the backbone of the story, and with characters that they love. I don't want to know what bitching could occur if they were changed too much. Though that would be unneccessary, given how much we have longed for and campaigned for more Oddworld, in any form.
Then again, no one expect the plot of MO to be anything like that of the game. OWI's beloved story was raped for the development, and it will be a warm day in penguin hell when it is not restored for his big-screen debut.
