Aww... Oxameter makes me sad ='(

Ramms · 06-30-2009, 05:26 PM

So i havent completed the game, but i passed the part at the desert where you find again Oxameter, but hes dead.

That part its really sad for me.
Anyone feeling the same?

PoSSeSSeDCoW · 06-30-2009, 05:39 PM

I don't think he's dead, I think he's just pushing the tree until it falls over so he can continue on.

ACE could put him in a cutscene somewhere on the next game featuring him pushing the tree until it falls, and so he goes on his straight line into a happy ending

i never got the feeling he was dead....not sure why you did, he's just unable to move on

However, i was expecting to have to make the tree move, or something, i was kinda disappointed when it proved not to be that way and you just left him there

Sorry guys... he died.

He's stiff as a log, completely silent and all brown... (it's not that the animator was lazy).

I think those three things pretty much say he's dead. What else could we have done to make it clearer? We couldn't make his head fall off, could we?

Really? I assumed he was just upset because he couldn't move on... or something. Maybe sleeping?

I was kinda disappointed. I thought the idea of the Oxameter guy was cool, and how he could keep appearing here and there as he progresses. But for him to just die the second time you see him? Whats the point in that? Seems a bit anti-climactic. First thing I think of is Chekhov's gun. Why have him there if he has no purpose?

He's not dead carlos!
He's just.. sleeping.
Gathering force to push that tiny tree

well that was a poor choice in my opinion, as to it being obvious that he died, not really, he hit something he couldn't overcome, ofcourse he's stiff and not moving, by his character it clearly states he will try and go forward no matter what so if he can't then ofcourse he's just going to sit there

I still think you should have made some sort of thing where you knocked the tree down for him and he continued on...

PoSSeSSeDCoW · 06-30-2009, 08:33 PM

I thought of him more as a force of nature, like a river, than as a "person," slowly wearing down whatever obstacles were in his way, eroding them until he could pass.

By the way, I probably would have laughed if his head fell off. >_>

Ramms · 06-30-2009, 08:54 PM

Yea, I knew he was dead, look at the colors of it, like old metal.
Its very sad for me atleast haha, I dont know why.

Btw the game its very unique, it has really trapped me into it, in a good way. Its an awesome game.

Thanks for this game, ACE Team <333.

Please put something into ZC2 that lets you bring Oxameter back to life.

I want to see an epic battle between zombie oxameter and annoyed golem.

mtma14 · 06-30-2009, 10:24 PM

I liked Oxameter... Too bad... Why do the good ones die first??!!!

Also, is that a vase on his head or is it his actual head? I'm asking this because nothing on Zenozoik is what i expected, a strange world, so I have no doubt it could be his head...
