I know I'm talking to a believer, but whatever (ironically, on OWF some are making fun of religion). Spyro Enter the Dragonfly, Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 : these games don't pretend to be something else than platformers !

Just like MO, they were games made as console launch titles. Just like MO, they were developed with a lot more content in mind. Just like MO, they had to be cut back in scope significantly to meet their deadline. And just like MO, this meant they didn’t get all the content they originally intended in to the final shipped game, and they wound up as disappointing games. MO never “pretended to be” something.

"Pre-alpha videos" ? Well, you should watch these videos again, they are faithful to MO. You don't see Abe stealing moolahs from other mudokons (you know, the "cut content").

When I watch those videos I see stealth mechanics that never made it in, character and environment interactions that never made it in

"the Art of Oddworld Inhabitants book" : don't you see a difference between a picture and a video game content ?

There’s no difference between production artwork and planned content.

"You’re wrong, please stop with your inane crusade against Lorne Lanning" : it's not a crusade against him, he is just selling dreams (who are in his head).

Discussing game ideas that haven’t been developed yet isn’t “selling dreams”.
