karmo Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Spoiler So, if MI3a would have been about Guybrush following LeChuck to hell, are there any signs of in in LeChuck's Revenge? It is interesting that things get weird first time when Guybrush hits his head and sees his parents skeleton dancing. It might foreshadowing of Guybrush falling after telling her story to Elaine and things getting even weirder. By that i don't mean Guybrush hits his head second time but possibility that in game universe unconsciousness might mean soul leaving body for short time and death soul leaving body for good. That would mean that Guybrush might have fell into coma after falling from create height under Dinky Island and sewers might be transitory please between life and death. (Not hell itself since LeChuck as undead wouldn't be in hell yet and he still struggles to send Guybrush to dimension of infinite pain meaning Guybrush isn't in that dimension yet.) Oh, and you get name Stan by moving one letter a from Satan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPeel2001 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 (edited) Personally I think a more direct continuation could have been like: Big Whoop smashing open let whatever crazy magic inside it seep out It's the presence of Big Whoop that interferes with LeChuck's spell to transport Guybrush into another dimension The longer Guybrush and LeChuck stay near the ruins of the chest, the more the Big Whoop magic permeates and the weirder things get (brother, parents, fairground, etc.) Elaine appears in the Big Whoop dimension and helps him remember that he's not a kid The two of them try to escape back to reality but Guybrush is tricked by LeChuck Instead of transporting himself and Elaine out of Big Whoop... he transports LeChuck and himself to where LeChuck wanted to send Guybrush originally... Hell! In Hell LeChuck is lauded for his behaviour on Earth and immediately given a position of power... Unfortunately for Guybrush, all LeChuck wants to do is torture Guybrush for eternity Fortunately for Guybrush there's some sort of technicality with his life and he's not immediately condemned Stan is also there in Hell... having died after Guybrush nailed him in his coffin Stan doesn't care, though -- he's unflappable, he's always looking for another scam to run in order to get some power in Hell Guybrush needs to escape Hell, but when he tries to leave he discovers he can't because he doesn't have a spiritual essence (after LeChuck destroyed it in MI2) The lack of spiritual essence is why they don't know what to do with him in Hell... a bit of good luck Much of the game is spent with Guybrush trying to get his spiritual essence back At some point he meets his own spiritual essence in Hell... But he has to be careful... once he has his essence back he back be tortured for eternity, but without it he can't escape Guybrush finds himself incredibly annoying and unpredictable to deal with (like other characters found Guybrush on earth) Eventually Guybrush does escape and finds himself back on Dinky... Elaine is waiting outside... they reunite. The power of Big Whoop is mostly gone... but there's still odd moments here and there Back in Hell LeChuck is blamed for Guybrush's escape Stan has spent the game scamming everyone in Hell and is locked up next to LeChuck... forcing LeChuck to spend eternity listening to him The end Edited October 24, 2022 by ThunderPeel2001 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoncolor8 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I like this a lot, I had to think of Marius' 'I wonder what happens in...': ' I'm Guybrush Threepwood and I am dead, wait, am I singing? Laaaaaa!' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
