Oddworld My Article on Stranger/OW Studio Visit

As you guys know, I can't really say too much about Stranger and what I have played/seen, but Oddworld Inhabitants have allowed me to write a preview of it and my visit there. The preview is really just my thoughts and feelings on the game and what I think of it ... so you won't find any new information or anything.

But enjoy anyways.

The picture is just the one they have on oddworld.com under the latest AIA section ... I don't have a larger version or any of my own photos. Actually, I didn't even know they took it of me at the time.

Oh mann I am jealous of you Kristen its driveing me crazy! The other day I was playing Abe's Oddysee and observeing the stunning graghics in the background, and then I thought about Stranger and all I got to say is this is going to blow me away. I can't wait until I emerse myself into the eye candy that Stranger has as described by you. I tell ya as a free lance artist myself everyday now I am getting more and more inspired by OWI for the incredible work they do. Im so inspired that my own work is now beginning to blossem into something promiseing. I can't wait till 2005!

That's it...next OWI visit, I'm tagging along! I am a reporter for OWW after all!

Seriously...the game sounds great, and I can't imagine what cool features they'll add onto the game by early 2005 release! And, may I comment on your writing. Very professional. A+++!

I don't want to get into that, I'd browse the Forum FAQs before asking.

It's not that she doesn't want to share, it's just that she can't. She's bound to a contract and can't relay any inside information on the game. If she was allowed, she'd spill her guts.

Acually she dose, but she can't. I remember when Shapp saw the intro, but could'nt hear what they were saying.
I'm not straving for a very little info, just time! the years run so quick, yet the events are slow.

Me'h....

Thanks everyone for the comments!

And yeah, as Sligslinger says, I just can't say anything. OW had that on their website somewhere I think too [about the contract]. I would love to say things, and sometimes it's really hard for me. That's why I don't venture into the spoiler forum, because I don't want to be faced with something I can answer.

That was very cool indeed. I envy you and I am jealous. :P

So how exactly were you picked to go to OWI? Or why did they trust you that you wouldn't tell anyone about the game?

Thanks.

Thats a bit cruel if they decide to start numbering us. I suggest a Gladiator-style battle to the death to decide once and for all who is number one.
