It has some real-life animal characteristics, but come to think of it, Munch was the only one who didn't

Munch had elements of a catfish, a rabbit, a frog and a dolphin all rolled into one. It's the most compound creature OWI have ever come up with, but that doesn't in any way make him contrived. He was, in my personal own opinion, one of the last great character designs. MO may have brought us Vykkers and Interns, but we were also lumped with Fuzzles and Meeps. OSW had Stranger, and while he had a good design, it was nothing to celebrate.
I woke up this morning and spotted a Glukkon on a poster. I thought, “What the hell is that?” That's the honest truth. I look at a Clakker or a Grubb and I think, “Oh look, a fat chicken,” or, “Woah, didn't we all draw creatures like that when we were six?” Now we get, as Dipstikk puts it so aptly, an anthro cougar, and the problem with that, tentacle_orgy, is that Oddworld is already populated with fantastic, original, alien designs that use new shapes, new body structures and amazing attention to realism to produce a menagerie of practically believable, very understandable creatures that remain distinctly Oddworld. Fangus is a lion-Hulk. His flock are demonic sheep.

Farzad is by far the BEST FRIGGIN ARTIST OWI has ever had. So don't make fun of him, cuz he kicks ass.

Firstly, no one was making fun our of him. Secondly, Steven Olds designed Mudokons, Glukkons, Scrabs and Paramites. Your opinion is your own, but anyone not bowing before Mr Olds deserves … I dunno: a pinch, maybe.
Apart from that, Dipstikk is quite right - everyone can stop getting rat-arsed at each other right now, or I'll go ape-shit.
