Munch's Voice...

Holy Sock · #1 07-05-2010, 06:24 AM

I haven't played MO before (looking forward to the Oddbox) but I watched 1 or 2 videos recently. Is it me or is Munch's voice a little annoying? Does it work when you play the game?

I just don't think I'll enjoy a game where the central character pisses me off every time he speaks...

Well, it isn't a very good game. So, I guess, don't play it.

I didn't think that you could get much worse. I was wrong.

Public executions? Classy.

Since Munch is essentially a giant frog, Lorne was trying to give his voice that croaky-ness. I find the voice kind of annoying, but to his credit, it's a very unique voice that I doubt anyone could imitate without a case of laryngitis.

I didn't have a problem with Munch or his voice. I just wanted the game to be good.

They fixed that in Stranger's Wrath, though.

Munch's voice annoys me a lot less than the Crappin' Elum, who thinks it is funny to post pictures of the execution of my Great-uncle (through marriage) Lenny.

***Nate*** · #9 07-05-2010, 09:44 PM

I found Munch's voice far less annoying than the sound of his footsteps.

Sekto Springs · #10 07-05-2010, 10:45 PM

Seconded.

Crashpunk · #11 07-06-2010, 01:29 AM

I liked Munch's voice. i found it pretty clever how they put croaks in it to imply that he is a frog-like inhabitant

That makes sense. I just think he should make the voice more likable like Abe's.

i like munch's voice, i just don't like him, or the game, it seems even though abe's in the game (and one of the main characters) the whole game seems to revolve around munch, and i wish they had'nt taken out lots of unique things from the previous 2 games, like shrykull, healing rings and stuff. why in AE and AO scrabs are so terrortorial and in MO they run in packs together?

WOW. I have no idea what to say to that...

It is called MUNCH'S Oddysee for a reason...

Lord Stanley · #16 07-06-2010, 08:20 AM

I thought Munch's voice wasn't as good as Abe's, but it fits his character, personality, and figure, and it was a balance to the squeaky and fast-talking Vykkers.

I THANK GAME HAZ 2 MUCH MUNCH. BAT IT CALED MUNCHS ODDYSEE. WAT DO?

Well then why complain about it focusing on Munch too much, as opposed to Abe?

...Shall we rename it Abe & Munchs Oddysee just for you?

That's a complaint. And even if he's a main character, it's not his story, it's Munch's. If it was called "Abe's Oddysee" I'd unserstand this complaint.

Anyways, Abe's story was meant to be larger in scale, in regard to his mother, but development troubles meant they had to remove her from the game.

Well said.

IS OWITB trying to troll us or what?

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! · #26 07-08-2010, 03:15 PM

oh my god, why is everyone being so nasty, i was just making a point, you dont have to get all, retarded about it.

Stupid-Limey · #27 07-08-2010, 03:22 PM

OWiTB, i have one thing to ask you....

Why so serious?

Youngsy · #28 07-08-2010, 04:06 PM

I too was pissed off that Munch got all of the spotlight. Yes, I am aware it is Munch's Oddysee but, to me, is appeared that Abe was pushed to the side. I don't really like anything about the new games. I still prefer the good ol' 2D Oddworld adventures to pretty much anything.

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! · #29 07-08-2010, 04:24 PM

thank you! thays exactly my point!

Mr. Bungle · #30 07-08-2010, 04:27 PM

I thought Munch's Oddysee was a decent game, if a bit rushed, especially in terms of story line. Although, I wouldn't put off playing it just 'cause Munch's voice is a bit irritating...:P
