Slightly unrelated to the current topic, but I find it amusing how a thread dedicated to discussing inactivity has caused a surge of activity and a somewhat interesting discussion. Arguments aside, I think this is a good thing. We need some healthy discussion about the state of things and I'm hoping this will make some sort of difference. Or y'know it could be buried in the dust and forgotten about in the next month...

It's kinda typical though, it's sorta similar (at least imo) to the way mentioning how awkward a situation is in small talk can alleviate the awkwardness.
On other topics of oddworld, the modding section would probably be a little more active once there's more work done on the open source alive engine; it got pretty stale having to work within the limitations of the old AO/AE engines because stuff just didn't work (electric fences prime example).
That, and I personally got bored of AO/AE because the levels feel like such a drag after having to play through them over and over to test stuff (the level select cheat never seems to work on mine).
