Post subject:  Dog Heads vs. Odonghe

What I love about Pathologic is how the creators combined both reality and fantasy in a steppe environment. Yes, I'm talking about the non-human creatures.

This might sound really stupid, but the first time I saw the Dog Heads (1st day, Powder house quest), I freaking lost it! I was like SWEETJESUSWHATKINDOFMONSTERISTHAT?!?!

On the other hand, whenever I see the Odonghe (steppe Worms), I'm melting of the sheer sugary cuteness they are! I swear if there was Pathologic merchandise, I'd buy a dozen Odonghe plushies for me and my friends to sleep with at night!

Anyone else had a similar experience?

Before I got on the team, I saw Pathologic on Russian GDC - and holy damned shit - I felt exactly the same as you did, when I saw the dogheads. :) The Odonghe actually also scare the shit out of me: I was running after one and suddenly it turns around and attacks! OMG, I'll never forget those eyes. ;)

OMG, the almighty The LxR responded to my thread! Also, if you didn't notice in the original post, I was subtly hinting at creating a merchandise line.... pretty please, I want an Odonghe plushie and maybe a tank top :P

Oh yeah, another cool character is the Rat Prophet. :) Just plain freaking cool and a bit creepy. :)

I know Odong plushies would sell like crazy - They might even be more desirable than the Cthulhu plushies :lol:

Anyway, I'm the same as you guys: The first time I saw the dogheads, I completely freaked out. It was such a shock - The perfect horror - Something familiar mixed with something completely odd and wrong. I remember going up the stairs in that house... walking towards the bedroom... then this *thing* walks right out in front of me!

I love the way that the strange creatures are just *there* in Pathologic - no-one questions their presence. As with so many other things in the steppe town, they're just part of everyday life.

I also think the character designs are so damn cool. The Odong, the Tragedian and *especially* the Executor are just iconic. I would love one of those bird masks for Halloween :)
