Creators and fans live a game in very different ways. I have I have a someone unique perspective on this having seen it from both sides in real life, but The Simpsons parodied this relationship perfectly... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read it as just a continuation of Guybrush not getting any recognition for his dubious exploits. (eg. "I heard LeChuck drank so much root beer he exploded.")

Thrik Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Maybe not an obsessive fanboy but I definitely got that collector geek sort of vibe from him, which fits the character. 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally someone builds a museum to Guybrush’s many exploits, but of course he gets credit for none of them (to the point that a character from a whole different pirate franchise gets credit for one of his feats). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowLevel Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 The total lack of attribution reminded me of Woodtick's characters, who attribute Largo's defeat to everything possible except Guybrush's actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought this was somewhat derivative if planet threepwood in escape tbh. I kept waiting for a joke or reference to it but it never happened. I guess it’s sort of funny that guybrush has twice visited a museum devoted to himself and no one there recognised or believed him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cinnamon Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Does anyone know if it is possible to leave Cogg Island after you've visited it, or is Guybrush supposed to drown? I couldn't find an exit spot and the blowfish did not extend his air supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, exactly: Fink: "He must have finally got that nasty letter I wrote." Bart: "You sure can write a mean letter, Fink." 4 hours ago, cinnamon said: Does anyone know if it is possible to leave Cogg Island after you've visited it, or is Guybrush supposed to drown?

It's a one way ticket... but the autosave will take you back to where you were before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
