Stranger--IGN Video Interview

[MojoMan220]

According to the description, it is an open Q&A. Sadly it is Insider only...

IGN.com

[Oddish]

Nice find MojoMan22O. I'm already member in IGN, So try'l to log in. Too see anything intresting.

£dit: Oh, you gotta pay to be an insider.

[Wil]

Already reported on OddBlog. I tried shopping around for a username and password, but it seems people are unusually unwilling to share nowadays.

Having said that, OWF probably do not endorse using other people's passwords, so ignore me.

[Xavier]

yeah it's annoying
but I don't want to pay for that...
wasn't there a member who was kind enough to upload some screens and gave them for free?
I wish he could do it again

[Oddish]

Good idea Xav. Mabey we should offer him the ultimate OW pics, Hight qualty, rare.

[Nate]

there's such a thing as the ULTIMATE OWI pics? That means you've been holding back on us until now...

[Xavier]

I don't quite get what Oddish said...
but sure there are some pics the lot of you never saw

[Oddish]

I mean the member never saw the pichures. But how can we find that member. We could try the boards on IGN, make a thread. That way we will see if there is any members.

[MojoMan220]

Why do we need pics? Its just a Q&A... there is really no reason to track somebody down to capture pics of Lorne speaking to an audience. The IGN description does not mention a demonstration of the game.

[Xavier]

in fact we only need a transcript...
I wonder where we could find someone like that
*looks around

[Oddish]

Everything is offers now days. Let's call him!

[Xavier]

yeah but who?
do you know a guy like that?

the one who did that previously isn't around anymore...

[Oddish]

I think i'm start by making a Thread on IGN

*goe's of makeing a thread*

[Wil]

I wouldn't recommend asking for help in, of all places, the IGN Forums. The whole idea of Insider is that IGN make Moolah from it - hence, they're not gonna be all that pleased when people start asking for their exclusive content for free.

It probably goes against IGN's rules to let anyone have access to your account, too. But I suppose it couldn't be wrong to share what you've paid for...

[Xavier]

hmmm cheeky... but hey if it works,
wakes up the whole problem "can I do what I want with what I bought?"

[Oddish]

Well it's too late, i've already post a thread. Hehehe. XD

*Waits*

[Esus]

can you linkify us?

[Oddish]

you mean give a link, sure.

Here

[Wil]

Ah! I'd forgotten all about these IGN Oddworld Forums.

*posts like crazy*

[Oddish]

Lol Max. You'll blow there minds, oddworld minds that is.

[Wil]

And as if by Majic, a responce was given. http://boards.ign.com/Oddworld/b6079/64432074/?1

For those not willing to click links, I'd say the most notable points are:
- Oddworld: Stranger will attempt to "blur the line" between movie and game.
- The "western" setting and feel is more of an initial setup; there will be other varied locations and the ending will be a surprise.
- Whereas some games use things like "normal mapping" to make little details look good in small areas, Stranger will focus more on vast environments and scale.

Everything has already been said pretty explicitly. Credit to syrusnakku for being generous enough to donate these points (I copy/pasted from him, tragically).

[Oddish]

Great! And thanks for Xav for the idea, and Max posting it. So Blur tranistions, hey i thought up that too! I think they like my idea. hee hee
Love the maping idea, and a suprise ending, that sound interesting.

I think you also forgot about this one:
-There are eight primary kinds of live ammo

I don't remeber how many Live ammo there are, can't be botherd to see.

:chippunk:

[Xavier]

wohooo nice job!
anyway it's allready reported on OddBlog

[Oddish]

I wounder if i'm going to get banned by IGN. Ah well, it was worth it
