Four Fingers. It's so much more... natural. My favourite feature about muds were the little pinky-ish finger. And same goes for the ones on their feet. What's wrong with the 4th finger? we have pinkies on our feet, they're not used at all. And how are mudokons meant to use their hand properly? You need a certain amount of tendons muscles and support (aka fingers) to be able to hold things properly. Try putting your fingers into the "star trek salute" and picking something up. Not realistic enough, if you ask me. It's just not physically possible enough for me to agree with this 3finger change. Oddworld is all about making twisted, bizarre creatures and turning them into believable characters.
How do you do stuff with 3 fingers? Think about it.
