Wow, I'd never seen those before. I read a little bit and they're incredibly detailed!

LeChuck! Harr! This name shouting is jolly good fun 😜

After that, Glottis Kart!

Nope...

Perfect release date. Of course, I would love to have it sooner, but hey, we've still got Monkey Island Mondays until then (I hope!). I got a prepaid post office MasterCard months ago specifically to buy this when the time came. Got it as soon as it became available! That little clip of Elaine is interesting, it really is looking like she might be playable, though of course they could've just cut Guybrush out of the clip (Wally was by himself in the Gameplay trailer). It looks like she might be on top of the cliff on Monkey Island where we shot the catapult, just the framing is different. I'm really excited to playing a new Monkey Island game without having to worry about system specs too, back when Tales came out I couldn't afford a proper gaming PC and was stuck with an old laptop playing it on quality level 1 on a low resolution. Now I can enjoy Return on my 4K TV on Max settings, yeah baby!

I'm really hoping for a Curse remaster soon, or a nice remastered set of all 5 games for Switch (and PC of course). The latter might be too much to ask...but I can hope.

I'm a little nervous about the trailer tbh, excited for a release date, but worried that we'll see too much. I feel like at this point, most of us could do without another trailer and just play the game already 😜

If they say it's the last one, I fully expect the game to be out super soon. Now what's everyone's guess for what we see? I'm guessing either Voodoo Lady, Elaine, Murray, or something with the UI.

I wish I could watch it live but it'll be 4am in Australia 😅

It was a complete shot in the dark this time. 👕 I beat #Mojole #151 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 5/6 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤💛🖤🖤 🖤💚🖤🖤🖤 💚💚💚💚💚 https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/

I mean, it wouldn't be totally unheard of, Psychonauts 2 came out the day before Gamescom last year. I think I'd prefer to get a date first though so I can plan my series playthrough. Is it abnormal for a game's release date to be announced a week before it drops? Is that enough time? I'd say engagement is pretty high atm with all the Monkey Island Mondays and people are just begging for it to drop, so I can't imagine much point in waiting another month if the game's done. Of course, they could still be ironing everything out, we don't really know. This is a long 4 days

This may be a long shot, but is it possible that the "World Premiere" next week is just the game dropping and the trailer we get is in fact a launch trailer to tell people "go buy it right now, it's out"? Also, will there even be a Monkey Island Monday next week? Premiere, to me at least, suggests a release, unless they simply mean "premiere of this specific trailer", which to me feels like being strung along tbh. Either way, whether it's just a straight up drop of the game or a date, I'm at least 80% sure we'll know when it's out by then.

El Pollo Diablo is in this screenshot...it's Guybrush 😜

Haha I remember this video! Good times. Also, great idea to change it to night, it really added to the opening of Chapter 1. It's interesting that most people's favourite locations in the series are the ones that take place at night. Probably something to do with that air of mystery that comes from darkness. I think the best daytime area in the series was probably Plunder, it just feels like a nice time being there.

Ghost chickens that lay ghost eggs, apparently.

Ok, I've seen enough (until the trailer next week because I have no self control ) Please Gibbous (A Cthulhu Adventure) the game already!

I quite like Silverwolfpet's version: Stan's New Store. if you know, you know

I just paused the clip before Wally sees Guybrush and it looks like his arms are bleeding! Maybe he suffered burns after the fortress explosion.

It might not mean anything, but I'm intrigued by the idea of Wally running "the best map shop in the caribbean and beyond". Could we end up going to whatever "beyond" the caribbean is? Is that where Brr Muda is located?

There should probably be a poll option for the best version of them all: Ultimate Talkie Edition

I'd imagine she isn't even there, probably off somewhere else and we bump into her on another island. So many questions, I'm absolutely dying for this game to come out!

It's like coming home...so good! Just inject this game into my veins already! More credence given to this being mostly post-Tales given Wally says he spent YEARS in therapy, abandoned feels like a reference to being left on the rollercoaster in Curse, too. The animations on Guybrush are so good, and of course Dom is absolutely killing it with his performance: I'm so glad Neil Ross is back too. Nice to see that it's still 10 o'clock in the town. I'm curious to see what exactly triggers Guybrush to go properly looking for the Secret in this game. Voodoo Lady's going out of business is interesting, my girlfriend said "of course she is, she doesn't have a good business model" 😂

Ok..that's funny and would be pure Ron Gilbert. Release a videogame on the day you were supposed to get things done, damn youuuu 😜

This verb coin discussion does make me curious about the context-sensitive nature of the UI. You could do all sorts of off the wall things that way, "argue with chef" "tickle Wally" 😜
