  1. The sterner expression was mostly a telltale era thing. Sam with his mouth closed existed in a lot of Steve drawings around that time. But usually he’s more like
  2. Same! Season 3 has been a significantly more rude game to remaster, technically. It did things with the Telltale Tool that are basically unsupported in modern versions that use a more modern rendering pipeline. We have conscripted three ex-Telltale engine/graphics programmers to help bend the modern engine to our will, but it has taken a lot of annoying and uncertain experimentation.
  3. Does the writers cut of Return to Monkey Island have a scene where Eowyn makes Aragorn a gross-tasting soup? If so, I wouldn’t play it.

  5. Anything that depends on animation timing needs to have the voices early, not late. Depending on a games specific needs and production pipeline, voice can happen in many points in production. Odds are good they did all 3 chapters of this a long while back though. My guess is content for an MMO like this needs a lot of testing before release.
  6. Not sure if this is a deep-cut joke or not, but in case it’s not: Hercules is an old 1-bit graphics standard that some of the older games supported, for a black and white mode.
  7. Is that approximately how Return places it too? I always read it as being behind the church like that.
  8. I’m friends with the guy who made the Winamp skin museum and Webamp (Jordan Elderedge) and can put you two in contact if that’d be useful.

  10. Suggestion: we create a separate spoiler thread for those playing the game.
  11. If you look closely, Sam and Max are inside the max robot fighting the sam kaiju.
  12. Steve posted this piece late last year
  13. Monkey Island Heardle #285 🔊🟩⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️ #MonkeyIslandHeardle wish I could go back and play the previous 284 of these!

  15. Which one did you join? I don’t see you in there
  16. I see both Return and the Sea of Thieves things as two opportunities that came up, where someone was willing to say yes. Those two points existing out in space don’t mean a line has been formed that we can extrapolate an trajectory out from, let alone a slippery slope. Whether you are excited about the Legend event or wary of it or resent it or anything else, it’s still a one-off thing clearly made by people excited to get to do this work. Maybe one day this will all be craven and horrible but that’s not the vibe I get at all right now.
  17. For whatever it’s worth, Escape and Tales both had 3D characters and used the same basic effect as Sea of Thieves for Stan’s coat.
  18. Given it’s a crossover event expansion for an unrelated MMO, I hope it’s more love letter, vibes, etc, and not trying to do a lot new with the series. (Hope it’s more “what if” than trying to stake a claim in continuity.) It’s fun reading interviews and tweets from the team, who are all clearly excited.
  19. Weird name for a new Psychonauts game but in Tim we trust.
  20. I will take the bait laid out in this thread and say that “actually when you think about it many classic lucasarts games don’t have good stories,” is a deranged take. I won’t reply to any replies to this post.
