brief Posted November 24, 2000 Share Posted November 24, 2000 IIRC, the roller coaster tracks were rerouted, so Guybrush will never reach anything dangerous while on the roller coaster. If you keep Guybrush on the roller coaster, it might get really annoying, so that you wish you were dead, though. ------------------ "Show me a man who's gentle and kind, and I'll show you a loser." -Meet the Parents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haggis McMutton Posted November 25, 2000 Share Posted November 25, 2000 I'm a bit vague on this, but I'm sure Guybrush dies in the acid pit in MI2 if he's left long enough. I seem to remember it happening, then cut to the scene where he's hanging in the Big Whoop crater with Elaine saying something like "Well, if that happened, how come you're here now?" (remember the game is a flashback at this stage). Guybrush replies "Ok, here's what really happened." and allows the player another shot at getting him and Wally out of there. I've only seen it happen once in numerous games, therefore I'm a bit vague on the matter. ------------------ A pirate I was meant to be, Trim the sails and roam the sea!

Guest C Shutt Posted November 26, 2000 Share Posted November 26, 2000 Yeah, that's pretty much how it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brief Posted November 27, 2000 Share Posted November 27, 2000 One of the interesting aspects of Monkey Island games. In a way, it makes the game too easy. But then again, it's not nearly as frustrating.. "I didn't think you could die in LucasArts games..." A friend of mine just started playing Final Fantasy IX, and accidently killed the princess when he was supposed to be rescuing her... and he hadn't saved the game beforehand... ------------------ "Show me a man who's gentle and kind, and I'll show you a loser." -Meet the Parents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmy the monkey Posted November 28, 2000 Share Posted November 28, 2000 If i remember correctly you can die in secret of monkey island if you stay in the water too long when sherrif shinetop dumps you in the drink for stealing the idol. If you dont pick up the idol in 10 minutes (cause thats as long as guybrush can hold his breath ) you turn green and have such verbs available as bloop, and float. Pretty funny ------------------ Hey, it's timmy the monkey....how did he get here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufio Posted December 2, 2000 Share Posted December 2, 2000 u can die in lec's very own FIRST adventure game, maniac mansion ------------------ (¸.·'``'·.¸¸.·'`'·.¸¸.,.,.¸.·'´`'·.¸¸.·'´`'·.¸) «´¨`·.¸¸.*NewFoundGloryBoy* .¸¸.·´¨`» (`'·.¸¸.·'´`'·.¸.·''´`'`'`'·.¸¸.·'´´`'·.¸¸.·'´´) I have a theory about ants. I figure that if I step on every ant I see, then eventually by natural selection the ants will evolve to avoid me. It may take a few million years, but I'm patient. I have a similar theory about voting against the presidential candidates who equally annoy me, but they evolve even more slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxiwoo Posted December 2, 2000 Share Posted December 2, 2000 Its easy to die in Sierra games, and there's a good ripoff in SOMI. When you are on the look out mountain on Monkey Island, keep walking to the right. Hehehehe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimMonkey Posted December 5, 2000 Share Posted December 5, 2000 You can "sort of" die in Escape from Monkey Island. *spoiler* In the Swap where you meet yourself... shoot the other Guybrush with the gun.. he dies Later when it's your turn... the other Guybrush will shoot you... and you die But then the time paradox thing happens and you're back to the start... It was soo funny the first time I did it... I never thought he will actually shoot the other Guybrush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slim1587246272 Posted December 6, 2000 Share Posted December 6, 2000 I just have to note how spooky this is... I had just finished posting a note about the swamp trick SlimMonkey just mentioned, and then I came over here. Wait a sec: Slim posts note about swamp trick, 30 seconds later finds post about swamp trick by another SLIM, SlimMonkey! Spoooky! I feel like I'm trapped in a temporal anomoly!

brief Posted December 8, 2000 Share Posted December 8, 2000 Sadly, you can't die that way in EMI. When it gets closer to ten minutes (around the 9th minute), Guybrush will say that he's almost out of air. Then, when the tenth minute is up, he says he better go up to the shore, and proceeds to walk there by himself. I guess the only thing we can do is to shoot ourselves... ------------------ Energizer Bunny arrested, charged with battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman Toothroot Posted December 24, 2000 Share Posted December 24, 2000 Well... you can die in at least 3 adventure-games from lucasarts: Maniac Mansion, Indiana Jones and the last cruzade, and in Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis. Besides those I don't think you can die in any other.... except from that part in MI2 where you're trapped with Wally in Lechuck's dungeon, that's true..... ------------------ this pig-shaped bush frightens and confuses me!

Rufio Posted December 30, 2000 Share Posted December 30, 2000 u can die in zac mcracken and the alien mind benders (have i already mentioned this), and u can sorta die in full throttle, and in the dig. ------------------ Just because u can hear my music blasting across the house, doesn't mean that you can just walk in without knocking and expect me to have clothes on.
