one thing i particularly like about OI art is that somehow everything on oddworld seems to fall apart but does not and so many things are out of order... what i mean is for instance Bonewerkz. in most places the bricks of the walls are visible, there are great piles of bones everywhere. or SligBarracks i think i dont need to explain that :P
the other thing is the hierarchy system in oddworld. physiologically all the characters fit in their place. glukkons are tall and seem mighty (from a distance :P) vykkers are also tall + their many hands make them able to do things other characters cant therefore are higher in rank, sligs are short bent backs the only thing that gives tham power is a weapon, mudokons and gabbits are kind hearted but clumsy and dont have money therefore ithey dont meet the artificial oddworld ideals
what i want to put accross with this way too long explanation is that the characters are well built and detailed. thats what i enjoy
