AE is the best Oddworld because the line, "Screw you Aslik, you ain't runnin' nothin'," made me laugh when I was about 6 years old.

Profound.

I thought they were both pretty good tbh, Ao and Ae. I've always said the slam-door bit with the spastic mudokons was fucking dumb, as was t-KILL-EM-KILL-EM-KILL-EM-KILL-EM.

Some of those puzzles were a nightmare and probably could have been thought out better. I still get stuck on the "KILL-EM" segments and end up abusing the Quik-save function because I accidentally end up asking the slig to shoot too many times. It's not difficult, just an incessant exercise as you learn when exactly to stop instructing him.
I look forward to not having to do that in the remake. I'd rather have Abe possess the Glukkon, and rather than forcing the player to complete incessant puzzles, have it more like MO. A simple officer, but with a few things to investigate if the player so chooses, such as a computer, a newspaper, additional news segments, etc. Put the Gluks in a position they would ACTUALLY be in, rather than surrounded by a dozen fucking drills and killer slogs, while providing the player with an opportunity to learn more about the state of the world.
Better yet, give the player an option to render Bonewerks destitute by having Director Phleg deposit the factory's funds into a brand new crowdfunding campaign for Lil' Lucky. That'd be kind of cool.
(Maybe.)
