The Religimous Stranger

Will Stranger have his own spiritual expert/dictionary like Abe and Munch had? I know by now that some might consider the idea hackneyed, since every game has had its own. But would OWI do it again? I know that it's pure speculation, but I'm wondering. (This topic has probably been done already, but too bad.)

....

Stranger seems a bit closer to the industrial types of Oddworld. He probably doesn't share their values necessarily, but I doubt he's the kind of guy that would sleep in a hut and wear a loincloth either. Unless of course part of the story is about how he discovers his spiritual connections.

I doubt it for some reason... I believe steefs to be a religious sort of creature who are closely in tune with nature but where good clothes, but I dunno.

I don't think Stranger will have a spiritual guide, per se (I'm assuming you're talking about characters like the Big Face, Raisin, Weirdos and Shaman). Maybe his boat somehow guides him, unlike traditional Earth boats, where the opposite would make more sense. But I just need to say, Shell Man, your avatar is incredible.

I must agree with Max...on the avatar that is. As for any spiritual connections with Stranger. Im guessing that Strangers spiritual guid would be him self/inner self, his conceince(sp?) or whatever you wanna call it; and as for his boat well I think that'll have a big role aswell but along the lines of his past.

I don't really think he will. I like that idea about the boat, though. That's pretty clever. I suppose he might be like The Man With No Name and naturally be the Good, as opposed to the Bad or the Ugly.

yeah, he seems just a bit too independent to put up with someone telling him what he's supposed to do
