  1. I've been wondering this ever since it was announced. Let's hope so!
  2. It always clicks when I realise it can't possibly be a word 👕 I beat #Mojole #129 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 6/6 🖤🖤💚🖤🖤 🖤🖤💚🖤🖤 🖤🖤💚🖤🖤 🖤🖤💚🖤🖤 💛🖤💚🖤🖤 💚💚💚💚💚 https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/
  3. I watched the German version just to see how well my high school German education stuck with me and....it definitely didn't I think I got "Hallo mein name ist Guybrush Threepwood" and Largo saying Tschuss...that was about it. One day I'd like to relearn it, I had a lot of fun with it until I had to drop the subject to make room for electives
  4. Not bad, not bad. 👕 I beat #Mojole #128 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 4/6 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤🖤💚🖤 🖤🖤💛💚💚 💚💚💚💚💚 https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/
  5. I don't think it's a coincedence that next Monkey Island Monday is the 1st of August. Release date please!
  6. Is that even a word? 👕 I beat #Mojole #127 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 5/6 🖤🖤🖤🖤💚 🖤🖤🖤🖤💛 💛🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤🖤💛🖤 💚💚💚💚💚 https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/
  7. This game keeps looking better and better! That zoom into the coutroom was great, and the music transition was seemless! Great stuff. They've done a pretty good job of avoiding plot and puzzle spoiler so far, but I hope we don't get too many of these teases before release cause I don't want to see all the locations before I get to play it.
  8. I think the best idea would be to show the person you're introducing the series to a screenshot of both original and SE and let them decide. FWIW I got my girlfriend to play the Ultimate Talkies but a lot of that had to do with her laptop not being up to playing the SEs at a reliable speed.
  9. I'm fine with counting the website chat with Stan as a demo, as it technically features gameplay in the form of dialog options
  10. If they keep up the trend of 10 second clips, it'll be just enough time to show Guybrush looking at one item in his inventory 😜
  11. Not a new generation, but I did get my girlfriend to play them, and she occasionally will say "let's play Monkey Island" out of the blue so I'll count that as a success. I think she wants to get Return for her Switch when it comes out. I got the shock of my life when she was able to immediately solve the underwater puzzle without a moment's hesitation (note she'd never heard of the games before, so she had no prior knowledge of how to solve puzzles, she just did it).
  12. Well, I guess they better do it now. Chop chop, Ron
  13. One thing that does intrigue me is...if the game starts in the carnival, why does the Part 1 title card evoke Melee Island? Will we get to solve any puzzles in the carnival as a prologue or will it be a quick cutscene before we're back to the pirate world? I mean, they could've edited the title card to say Part 1 when it's actually Part 2, but that's a stretch.
  14. That's definitely an interesting idea, though I've never truly been on board with the whole world of Monkey Island being imaginary in any context. Also, if we take what Ron said about how "we're not saying anything in those games didn't happen" at face value, then I feel like this theory invalidates that...but maybe it could still work? Like Guybrush has been in control for 3 games and LeChuck wants to erase it all and go back to when he had his brother right where he wanted him, and that was the carnvial. So it happened...right until it didn't. Idk, I think that'd be a tough reckoning with a lot of people (myself included), but it depends entirely on how it's done.
  15. Does this have anything to do with that theory about Guybrush and Chuckie going home from the carnival to read a pirate book and arguing about how the story goes?
  16. I love the glow peeking out. Seriously, this game's use of lighting in general has just blown me away so far. I've tweeted about this briefly, but I imagine that the game will freely ignore the giant robot blowing it up in Escape. I will be very surprised if they try to explain it. Just one of those "canon can get in the way of a good story" moments that Dave Grossman alluded to, I think.
  17. Yup...that fits. 👕 I beat #Mojole #120 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 4/6 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 🖤🖤🖤🖤💛 🖤💚💚💚🖤 💚💚💚💚💚 https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/
  18. They absolutely nailed it. Everything about this scene just feels perfect, it illicits just the right mood and I already can't wait to explore Melee Island again. What a tease though! Such a short clip and already I'm dying for next week to get the next little tidbit. There is something playing on my mind though and I wonder if anyone else is feeling this at all. I'm a little concerned that too much of the game will take place in locations we've seen before. Hopefully Melee is just a small portion of the game (mainly Part 1) and there's more to Brr Muda and Terror Island than we've gotten a glimpse of, maybe even another island aswell? It's also a little worrying that we've seen so many returning characters. Maybe this is all just by design for marketing purposes to really focus on pulling our nostalgic heartstrings to not spoil the new stuff, I hope that's the case. I'll admit I was a little disappointed to see that both the Voodoo Lady and Otis are in the exact same location we first met them in the original game. I just hope this isn't The Force Awakens of Monkey Island and really is its own unique story that adds to the world.
  19. AGAIN?! Seriously, you deserve to have credit on all this stuff. Assholes indeed. People really need to do more thorough research before just slapping things on their stuff.
  20. Does that count? 👕 I beat #Mojole #118 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 3/6 💛🖤💛🖤🖤 💛💚🖤💚💚 💚💚💚💚💚 https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/
  21. The curse of living in Australia means that for me it's Monkey Island Tuesdays...doesn't exactly roll off the tongue in the same way 😜
  22. Again...continuity 👕 I beat #Mojole #116 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 5/6 🖤🖤💚🖤🖤 🖤🖤💚💛🖤 🖤💛💚🖤🖤 💚💚💚💚🖤 💚💚💚💚💚 https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/
  23. I wonder if one of the things we see in future Monday tweets is that series recap that Dave Grossman mentioned in that German translated interview. Would be cool to see how they're gonna get new players up to speed on the story, considering most people would expect a pirate story instead of being thrown into a carnival playing a kid with his parents and older brother.
  24. I did not expect continuity between answers. 👕 I beat #Mojole #115 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 4/6 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 💛🖤🖤🖤🖤 💚🖤💛💛🖤 💚💚💚💚💚 https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/
