I've created this topic as I know that a lot of the older forum users no longer find any interest in Oddworld anymore. Namely they blame it all on Munch's Oddysee, and how it has let down Oddworld's stance on a lot of our worlds many problems. (2)I'd like all these people to post here what you don't exactly like or what you find wrong about Oddworld (or Munch's Oddysee) and I would be more than happy to reply with a suitable answer to those things you find wrong with it, and hopefully other Oddworld liking members will also reply with answers too.

On another note, I do not wish to have this topic turn into a topic where people will have there opinions slaughted. This topic simply is to try and justify the reasons you have against Oddworld, and to make sure a true response is given.(4)

1: Yeah, it sucked, didn't it?
2: Actually, I haven't really heard any one blame their losing interest on MO. I didn't like MO that much, but it wasn't the reason I lost interest. I still think AO is a great game, but I don't really care about it much any more. I just don't feel like playing/searching for information any more. People lose interest/grow out of things... You've got to understand, that happens...
3. Sounds like you're trying to change people's minds about MO. I doubt you're going to do that to any one, especially since you don't even own it... But some of my problems include: Stupid humor and childish gags in place of the darker social comment in the first game. I mean, come on just listen to what the sligs scream... The 3D. So many are probably thinking right now "Boy, that guy is one tasteless mamajama! 3D is goooood! And so are sentences like 'Hey, buttmunch'! Damn him! Damn him!" Or something along the lines. But I just didn't think that OW works in 3D... Yeah, 2D is old and they wanted something new... It HAD to be, it was an xbox game... But it just didn't have the Oddworld feel. It was too easy, also. The environments weren't as cool as in AO... The plot wasn't as good... Many things.
4. Stupid Alcar, and his crappy old opinions...
