Extinction
I know everyone would love to see the meeches "return from the dead". I dont. I think it would be better if the rumors of meeches were false and that they really were exctinct. I feel the story has more power when the people cant always get everything they want. Im pretty darn sure Lanning isnt going to wipe out the gabbits (though i think it would be the maxim of a storyline) so i would like to suggest the meeches stay "dead". one of the MOST MOVING scence from abes oddessy for me was the word exticntion sprawled across a poster of a meech... for only a brief pause. It captured the "we dont care" aspect of the glukkons. If the fans really really need to see meeches then have them show them in their former glory such as was done with the scrabs and paramites in AO. whatever the case, DONT just say "oh wait here are hundreds of these things we never found". There are tons of other speices on oddworld that the fans can fiend over (take the sea rex's popularity despite its sigular picture). Dont give in to the extremely happy ending and dont make it a huge downer, just give it some punch. food for thought.
