Who actually LIKES sligs?

Hehe..I think I must be one twisted person to think that sligs are cute in some misunderstood weird way. I was watching some Abe's Oddysee movies (thanks to a cheat I might add) and In the one titled 'Mullok Watches' the little slig besides him copies the Abe on the screen, and chants. It looks so cute, and a was driven to see whether I was the only one that liked 'em...Please vote....^________________^

I dunno, I thunk the're cute in a helpless sort of way. They fall prey to other sligs, big bro sligs, slogs, paramites, scrabs, armoured sligs, interns, armoured vykkers, armoured interns, armoured big bro sligs...








Actualy, I think the're just helpless.

I love Sligs! They just have this cool attitude! And I really like their voices. They just wouldn't be as cool without the voice. I just couldn't imagine it different.

I tolerate them. I don't especially enjoy them, since they try to shoot you, and they're dumb, greedy and pretty nasty. But that dosen't mean I don't find them appealing. I mean, Sligs may like bein' paid and shootin' stuff till it's dead, but ya gotta like the voice. I mean, it's so easy to immitate!

I scuppose their okay.

I think they're beautifully designed, but I don't think I have any affection towards a videogame character...

I think he meant, "I love them too, when they are fresh from the hunt and are slightly pounded - like Scrab food." Just a guess.

I take the same stance as Mac - great characters, add a lot to Oddworld's overall character, but nothing to get too worked up about.

I absolutely adore those sligs. When I get older I will make an AIS (acronym: Artificial Intelligence Slig)...

Zach, I hope you haven't put more than one image in your signature. That's against the Forum rules. Quick change them before anyone notices!

Okay, I failed to write this, but Bigbro Sligs just plain creep me out. I mean, it ain't natural for a Slig to be that...cut.

I think I've mentioned this before, but we know that Vykkers gave slig mega steroids so they could become Big Bro Sligs. And we know that Big Bro Sligs get so big, they can't get outta their pants! I couldn't live like that I tell you! How could you go potty?!

I don't even like BBS, there to big, and they don't run fast while they're possessed by you, but when your running away from them they're really fast, and not to mention loud!

I like the way they're designed, they look great especially for what they are and therefore have a kewl image.

I guess you could describe them as 'cute' in the sense that they're small and the one-line abuses they give out are quite humorous, like "you stiiink brotha!" I was surprised that they'd also reply "p*** offf!" in the game if you say it to another slig!

Flying Sligs pull levers with their facial tentacles, but their prehensility can only be speculated.

Sligs are my middle name! Wait, no, they're my last name... ahh forget it.

Really though, I don't see how someone could hate a slig... sure they like shooting things up but let's not get stereotypical
