Vainamoinen Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 (edited) It looks like he has Leia hair buns. So I'll call him Lester. Â He's probably the protagonist. Â Â Edited June 13, 2022 by Vainamoinen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing too specific but he says it's Ron's best work and the storytelling is one of a kind! He even said that the storytelling is so special that it's gonna be a topic for studies on the topic for years to come!  He also said he's gonna be back playing it again soon because the VO is being implemented and he's still a beta tester.  'Cressup' on twitch!  Here's the link to the interview with a timestamp when she asks about Return:  https://www.twitch.tv/cressup/v/1501961031?sr=a&t=5079s 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gender of them is hard to read, I always thought they're a woman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I have to imagine that this has something to do with how they get from the carnival to telling a (somewhat) regular pirate story for most of the rest of the game. Â He also says that the game has stuff to say about the nature of interactive storytelling. To me this is all pointing towards the game having a really interesting kind of conceptual wrapper/device/structure that is really related to whatever's going on in the carnival. Â He also says, in relation to a question about the Secret: "I was working with Ron when he was working on the very first game, and I know what he had in mind for the secret then, and it has a very significant bearing on what you see in this latest game." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rum Rogers Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 I watched it live yesterday and had goosebumps when Noah mentioned the first minutes are going to be discussed for years to come and will probably be subject of a Master's thesis for those studying storytelling. It's fantastic to hear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now what's a guy gotta do to get a drink trailer around here? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrik Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Yeah it’s a pretty superficial joke. 😅  The game takes you through all sorts of sci-fi and supernatural craziness, but fundamentally you are a courier, as opposed to a soldier or plumber. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I figured it out. That ghost is trying to deliver the ReMI trailer. No wonder it takes so long. 🙄 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Udvarnoky Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 It's intriguing how organically that fellow fits into the EMI background. I'm willing to kick in a few bucks for a remaster with Rex Crowley character designs. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fantastic to hear.  I hope this topic isn't drowned out by delivery ghost memes. 😅  Of course Noah will exaggerate a bit and who would blame him, but I'm confident that he wouldn't draw this much attention to the beginning part if it was just a bad segue from LeChuck's Revenge to Return to Monkey Island. We actually have a rather clear idea what those first ten minutes are about: We're starting off at the Carnival of the Damned, Ron always wanted to, and we're resolving a situation that's been left unresolved for over 30 years. But they can't just render a solution, they also immediately have to hook us onto a new story arc. The first and the latter are difficult, but both at the same time especially so.  I'm so excited to see what they have cooked up! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
