The Grog machine is a time machine, calling it now.

Thought you could sneak that Devil's Playhouse reference past us, did ya?

I reckon if we do get to hear LeChuck for the next Monkey Island Monday, it'll be one of those "Meawhile..." cutaways after Guybrush has made some progress on a puzzle.

I really hope it's LeChuck, but there are lots of characters we haven't heard yet. It could be Elaine, Herman, Wally, Stan, I think if it isn't LeChuck then it'll probably be the Lookout. But yeah...I'm excited and nervous about who they've cast, but I trust that Ron and Khris Brown found someone good. It's just hard to picture anyone else but Earl Boen, and when I try my brain just goes to Adam Harrington, which was servicable but not ideal.

I hope Return sells like hotcakes so we get everything on Switch....EVERYTHING.

Put it inside the stump, then the stump inside Monkey1 takes you to Monkey 2

I voted for Bob and Largo because I couldn't choose. Also, my little theory until it's completely debunked is that crate carrying ghost is Largo because he wears green pants...yep.

My guess is Part 1 is dedicated to Melee for a bit of indulgence in nostalgia and Part 2 onwards is new stuff until we reach Monkey Island. I'd like to think that the teases we're getting have purposely focused on early parts of the game so as not to spoil a good chunk of it. We haven't even seen the carnival or been given even the tiniest hint of how we get from there to pirate world again.

I kinda hope Melee Island is limited to the town/docks and the rest of the game is more heavily focused on Brr Muda/Terror Island and any other locations we may not know about. All I hope for is we get something new added to the world that is just as extensive and worthy of exploration as the places we're already familiar with. I hope for example that Brr Muda isn't limited to the courthouse and the building opposite that we saw last week.

I call absolute bullshit on this "word" Eep ook ack! I failed at #Mojole #134. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/

I can't believe I didn't clock that they were the original pirate leaders! Someone take me to Knuttin Atoll so I can claim a dunce cap It makes sense to see them again, given that there's a new trio taking over, it'd be weird to be left wondering where the OG went. The facial expression on Guybrush as he burps is fantastic, clearly they put a lot of effort into putting in plenty of custom animations. Others have cited the swordfighting book...I wonder if we have to collect a bunch of them for some reason, perhaps to learn whatever the new swordfighting mechanic is? I also like the idea of it being an in-game hintbook and various locations throughout the game have one for when you get stuck.

Judging by the last three...in about 4 hours.

But also...completely on brand for both Ron AND Devolver

Yeah I think that pretty much aligns with where I'm at, you don't want to stop having fun with the game if you're that stuck, I think at that point looking up hints is fair game. I just have to resist the temptation to look things up the second I get stuck. One good thing about playing immediately upon release is that there's less out there because everyone's playing it at the same time.

I'm curious...how old school is everyone planning to go with using the hintsystem, looking up hints online, etc? Personally, I want to try and figure out as much of the game myself as possible, because I always vowed with each new MI to do that as I very quickly used walkthroughs for the first 4 games (heresy, I know). I'm not against using whatever the hint system is so long as it isn't blatantly giving the solution away (I don't think I have to worry about that though, Ron's better than that) or posting in the inevitable hints forum...there's gonna be a hints forum right? And a spoiler talk one seperate from that? I'd hate to accidentally find out the Secret while I'm looking for hints.

You raise an excellent point. My one concern about review copies going around is the increase of potential spoilers leaking out, like someone less well-versed in the series accidentally giving away what the Secret is because they undervalue its importance, or just someone carelessly laying out the plot beats or the solution to a puzzle they found difficult. Clearly I haven't read a lot of adventure game reviews

I'm still wondering what Ron's stance is on the press getting advanced copies, seeing as how it was a dot point in his 2013 blog that they wouldn't but he's changed his mind about a lot of things and also there's publisher requirements and all that. Will we be seeing reviews pop up before release? I mean, the Mojo review is ultimately the only one I really care about (as well as what I personally think when I play it), but still, I'm curious.
