I'd like to think Sekto has at least one or two bodies in reserve.
That leads me to wonder if an Oktigi's business associates know that he's just a head on a stolen body. I'd imagine fellow industrialists would, and that perhaps each Oktigi has a personal doctor handy in case of issues.
Perhaps there's a market specifically for Oktigi where slaves are bred to be host bodies. That would be interesting.

They probably would have been inside the dam though.

Sekto Springs · #93 05-13-2010, 11:15 PM

Well, maybe he would store them at another base of operations. Someone as crafty as Sekto wouldn't put all his eggs in one basket.

***Nate*** · #94 05-13-2010, 11:41 PM

I dunno. I see hubris as contributing to Sekto's downfall. He probably would have thought that his control over the river was so complete that no-one could challenge him.

Sekto Springs · #95 05-14-2010, 12:43 AM

Good point.
So I guess we'll never know where he's going to go next.

STM · #96 05-14-2010, 10:28 AM

No, perhaps he believed that his forces were impenetrable, colonizing last legs and the mongo valley could have assured him of no trouble.

You mean what Nate just said?

STM · #98 05-14-2010, 01:02 PM

Mmm err yes exactly. But I said it first, pfffattt hahaha.

Ok to not be spammer I propose this: There is a clan of oktigi that breed okiti and bodies as well, steef was chosen because steef look imposing and scary. And fuzzy

***Wil*** · #99 05-14-2010, 03:52 PM

And they're well hung.

Maybe he was squirting ink into the water as he went, so all the Grubbs and their fish would get poisoned.

Bullet Magnet · #**101** 05-15-2010, 03:47 PM

Maybe he pissed in every fiftieth bottle of spring water he sold.

if anyone knows anything about this let me know please

There are a lot of sound files, including Clakkerspeak, that suggest that the player would have had the chance to play around with the different Live Ammo types near the start of the game at some kind of Live Ammo Carnival. It was dropped in favour of a more subtle, gradual way of introducing the critters. For one thing, it would raise the question of why Clakkers are using/promoting Live Ammo.

STM · #**107** 05-18-2010, 08:53 AM

well they are the only people who sell it!

***Wil*** · #**108** 05-18-2010, 03:24 PM

The sell the creatures; they don't specifically sell it as ammo. Another idea that didn't make the final cut was that they were sold at Clakker pet shops. Which explains why they're sold at all.

That makes alot of sense. Why was it cut?

Lord Stanley · #**110** 05-18-2010, 06:59 PM

Because The Lorne Lanning Himself and some of The Production Crew Themselves decided it wasn't necessary.

***Wil*** · #**111** 05-19-2010, 02:30 AM

Probably so they didn't have to build special pet shops.

enchilado · #**112** 05-19-2010, 03:07 AM

They decided Clakkerz were more likely to eat the ammo than keep it as pets.

Lord Stanley · #**113** 05-20-2010, 10:15 AM

How can Grubbs be so ignorant and yet have huge catapults and complicated maps - and guess 3 minutes and 30 seconds early that a certain section of the dam is going to fall?

Bullet Magnet · #**114** 05-20-2010, 10:48 AM

They remind me of some Australian aborigines. How do you know they're ignorant?

enchilado · #**115** 05-20-2010, 05:15 PM

As they are now, or as they were two hundred years ago?

STM · #**116** 05-21-2010, 12:43 PM

The grubbs aren't ignorant, they merely don't have the power to contest with sekto before unification.

Bullet Magnet · #**117** 05-21-2010, 02:01 PM

:

Both are good comparisons for different reasons.

DarKo · #**118** 06-03-2010, 07:56 AM

Hey all, I registered a couple years ago after just playing through the good old 2D games again. I heard back then some rumours (or confirmations) about Oddworld movie(s)... so what's up with that, will they ever come?

Cheers!

***Wil*** · #**119** 06-03-2010, 08:23 AM

Oddworld always intended to make Oddworld movies, and they still plan to. Some day. Hopefully we'll see them in the future, but it's not what they're working on now.

DarKo · #**120** 06-03-2010, 09:20 AM

Alright, so what's their current hotspot project?
