I've got a question that may be food for thought for the "chanting from the start of the game" debate:
Who here played through the game the first time, and thought that Abe having the ability to chant and possess Sligs from the very start didn't make sense? It'd make more sense from a storyline perspective, sure, but as a gameplay standpoint, that would mean changing a part of what was good about the first half of the game. It's as Glitch asks - Who would this change be made for? And as Wil says - Why hasn't anyone brought this up until now?
I suppose it'd make you (as Abe) feel a bit more vulnerable during the first half of the game, which could make some interesting gameplay situations, but it would still mean changing a lot and re-thinking many of the puzzles which would make Abe HD stray incredibly far from the original game.
