  1. In the interview Ron says, if I understood it right, originally it wasn't Stan but another character, and that proprietor character was actually the antagonist, who eventually morphed into the current antagonist, LeChuck.
  2. Any of you guys have an idea what the undiscovered ending variant might be that Ron is talking about? Do you think there's truly something we've not yet collectively found in this game?

  4. Looking forward to Chris Pratt's take on your iconic role πŸ˜…
  5. Eep ook ack! I failed at #Mojole #201. πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€ πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€ πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€ πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€ πŸ’›πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€ πŸ’šπŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’šπŸ’š https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/
  6. A thing I'm not sure anyone mentioned, but I felt resonate with me through Elaine: Naturally I identified with Guybrush ("We are Guybrush", as per the brilliant writeup from earlier), and quickly figured out that this is an older Guybrush, a more grown up Guybrush. This Guybrush dealt with the loss of his youth, with obsessions from the past, just like I craved a new adventure in the vein of the good old ones. I nodded along the way and thought, yeah, Ron gets it. And then we get a glimspe of what our wife is doing with her time. Elaine isn't chasing some dreams. She's living in the moment and fights a deadly desease that she's not personally impacted by, simply for the greater good, not for politics but because it's right. And as if it hadn't already been clear from the start that no Secret could ever live up to our imaginations, it really stung that I realized that I was a grown man after all these years but I wasn't Elaine, only Guybrush. However, the game also says it's ok to be Guybrush. He brings a smile on people's faces. Elaine loves him, tolerates and even encourages his quest. And he's a great, loved dad. Having a daughter of my own now, I want to try to be a bit more Elaine, but I don't want to discard my inner Guybrush.

  8. Is Ron even real? His name suspiciously appears on a sign in the end of the game. Guybrush could have made him up!

  11. I think the puzzle would have become cooler if you'd had to put an unspiced fish on top of the bucket.
  12. Lovely! Tried it earlier, to a score of measly 21 😒
  13. I did the same thing but found it out faster, but not sure if I wasn't lucky. For me the one where I needed a hint was the Bite of a Thousand Needles, but it's arguably not the hardest puzzle. I'll say that the whole "breaking out Stan" puzzle chain might be one of the hardest definitely. It involves the photo in multiple ways and a bit of out of the box thinking (how to get Stan to WANT to be broken out in the first place, and how to "prove" that I'm his accountant).
  14. Ah right, he does say that. Legal contracts are still the darkest magic in the Monkeyverse 😬
  15. Regarding Wally... in Monkey 2 he was that good that he told us he memorized the entire Big Whoop treaure map, so it's ok that we don't have it anymore. In Return, he obviously got supernaturally good at maps, yet he couldn't memorize a map to across the street? πŸ€”πŸ€”

  17. Which Monkey Island game has the least/most aggregated island area in Square Guybrushs? may be spoilers outside the return spoilers forum?
  18. Do you mean actual tides or are we talking about the concept of tides being known within the Monkey Island universe? Perhaps there is a book on Phatt mentioning them πŸ€”
  19. I loved the foreshadowing of the cliff with the rubber tree, then when Lila and the others left the plateau, I was sure Guybrush would bounce right back up from the rubber tree. I was laughing when he landed on the stump of that tree instead πŸ˜‚

  21. Talking about the kids, I really like this friendly Chuckie. He seems likea friend who can get you in trouble, but he's got your back too.
  22. I really have to spin up Tales again, it's the only one I've never replayed, and I feel like after getting so many of your perspectives on it, that would be worth it
  23. I believe she mentions everything, even without a cutscene. If you ruin someone's life without Elaine to hear it, what is the color of that crime? 😁
