Maybe Rupture Farms wasn't the biggest plant on Oddworld, but that doesn't matter- what matters is what the Mudokons believe, which is that it WAS the biggest, and Abe destroyed it. Therefore, they are willing to follow him as their Messiah. I think, for your average lazy Mudokon, that kind of thinking is the only way to get them psyched up for revolution. In my humble opinion, anyway

That goes for any Mudokon who believes 1029 was the biggest RuptureFarms. Move towards the more cultured urban areas, or just further from these particular sticks where there might be equally or more impressive RFs, and the Mudokons might not be quite so impressed.

Hell, if Rumor Kontrol is doing its job properly, news of a Mudokon uprising shouldn't have spread beyond the region AO–MO takes place. That kind of bad publicity can ruin a company's image.

It most probably isn't the biggest plant on Oddworld or even Mudos, the Mudokons in there have no clue, how could they know?

And I think Abe won't live to see the happy end.

Oh and Sekto Springs, some part of me still believes we will see the rest of the story.
thats a lot of information to get in 10 seconds.

OT: Max, change your avatar back! Whyyyy, oh the horror

OnT: I think that 1029 is probably the biggest simply because there is no reason for Lorne Lanning ot be lieing when he made the factory.

OT: There is to be no off-topic.

OnT: Except that it wasn't Lorne that said it, it was Abe; just because you can't think of a reason, doesn't mean there isn't one; and even if you're right, Lorne may have changed his mind subsequently.

But oddworld is lorne lannings mind and therefore every change and alternative aspect purges the oddworld reality creating a number of schisms and alternative parallels.

Oddworld isn't sci-fi. It doesn't need time travel or alternative dimensions or parallel universes or schisming realities to explain differing or changing continuities.

Oddworld isn't high fantasy. It doesn't need wizards or demons or gods or invisible monsters to explain differing or changing continuities.

A shaman did it.

I'll have you know that I was talking about oddworld being related to Lorne Lanning's mind and every time a new thought occurred to him, oddworld would be re-edited if you will to that new dimension creating a number of parallels. Biatch.

Oddworld isn't just a result of Lorne Lanning's efforts, it's the result of a sizable amount of people's efforts. And also, Lorne Lanning has projects other than Oddworld.

Nearly, the scouter fixed it, but it started FIRIN DA LAZAHS!

To stay on topic rupturefarms wise, do we think that Molluck visited other Rupturefarms?
