Xav’s right,
Citizen Siege will give Oddworld Inhabitants the power and leverage in Hollywood they need to produce an Oddworld feature film
and retain 100% creative control. They’re not going to force Oddworld onto the screen if it’s been ravaged by anyone who
thinks they know what it should be.
Citizen Siege is very gritty and very powerful, and because it’s set on Earth it’s going to hit closer to home than Oddworld could. We all love Oddworld’s reflection of our world, but once people turn off the games they can easily distance themselves from the characters. You can’t see Mudokons being oppressed all around you, but you see people giving away their civil liberties, and that’s what
Citizen Siege is showcasing.
That said, OddBlog has a
press release about the new partnership between OWI and Vanguard. Enjoy!
