Stranger is another aspect of Oddworld that was not meant to be in relation to the previous games. The only similar things were Vykkers and Fuzzles. But for the most part it showed a completly new part of Oddworld. I think Lorne's decision of going with this idea was very interesting and dareing. However I feel that Stranger in a way was more of an expierment so to speak, to see how everybody would react to a completely different side of Oddworld we diden't know about. I think the response was mixed.
Since Munch was a flop this had to be made in order to say to us that there is more to Oddworld than Abe and Mudokins and Munch. And yes, this was granted, (a radical move), however I think in its own light it worked.
To me its a bunch of mixed feelings about the game. But I will not dwell over it, I look forward to the future of Oddworld indeed.
