History Heartwarming / Oddworld

* Munch thanking Abe for helping him get the Gabiar. It gets this because WordOfGod reveals that while the Mudokons respect Abe, they never actually thanked him for saving them (besides the Big Face). You can see it on Abe's face, he's pretty taken aback by it.
* As Abe and Munch watch Vykker's lab go down in flames, they give each other a sweet fist bump for a job well done. Usually it's Abe who does all the work by himself, but with Munch's help, it proves to be even more sweeter.

* At the beginning of Soulstorm, the rescued Mudokons from Rupture Farms share a toast to Abe in gratitude and have written Abe The Savior and Freedom Forever. Whether or not they directly thanked him, considering they didn't in the original continuity, it's clear they hold him high regard.

* Usually in bad endings, ''everyone'' denounces Abe as a no-good schmuck and happily lets him die or turns him in themselves. ''Soulstorm'' has Alf actually try to reassure Abe that he did his best. It's oddly sweet considering it's otherwise the most depressing DownerEnding.

* A meta example is the namesake of Alf -- in 1998, Alfred Gamble had been grieving the death of his wife, and had bought a gun, planning to commit suicide. For some strange reason he instead used the last of his money to by a Playstation and several games, including Abe's Oddysee. Apparently Alfred was so taken by the game that it inspired him to keep on living, and he even wrote a six page letter to Oddworld Inhabitants. When CEO Sherry Mc Kenna read the letter out loud, it resulted in many of Oddworld Inhabitants' staff 'crying hysterically'. Alfred would remain a loyal Oddworld fan and remained in regular contact with the creators, up until his death in 2006 at the age 79.

* In Soulstorm, Abe isn't alone in his journey, he has Alf and Toby, who are integral to his journey by running their train. Even learning of the dangers they will face, they still trust in Abe to walk towards it themselves. In previous titles, Abe is usually all by himself or doing all the heavy lifting, here he has actual support and friends to help along the way.
