Calapuno Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 Does anyone else think that MI2 is darker than MI1? And I mean that in a good way, cause it gives both games a totally different fell, thus more fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drk Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 Sure is! -The plot itself is more dramatic & twisted -Vital role of voodoo rituals and generally : supernatural -Guybrush is kind of more ruthless fellow , than he used to be in the first part : treats Elaine instrumentaly , Stan+coffin , gravedigging stuff and more... -sinister ending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 also the whole screaming bone...chair...thing... that's kinda sinister in it's own way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yufster Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 Definately. I loved the plot of MI2. It was so deep and there are so many ways at looking at the ending. MI1 felt a tiny but shallow in comparision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnxiousApe Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 I think MI2 is darker. LeChuck's bone things on the wall... him chasing you round the tunnels near the end. In MI1 it was more lighthearted when you kill LeChuck at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabez Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 Yeah, and I think that making it darker is a great thing. I hope Monkey Island 5 is dark like Monkey Island 2 is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 I just hope MI5 is everything MI2 was...you know...good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Governor Phatt Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 the screaming chair was definitely darker than anything that had been in SoMI. Also the wally chained up thing was pretty dark, and when hes saying about being interrogated and the like. result: dark = good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udvarnoky Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 Yeah, it's darker. Ron said so in an interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Hawk Posted June 1, 2003 Share Posted June 1, 2003 It also contains grim humour, like how Le Chuck's leg falls off and the dog steals it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reaper Girl Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 As we say in the underworld, darker is better. MI2 was good because it wasn't afraid to have voodoo and zombies in your pretty face. And the last part was definatly much better then the last bits of MI1. AND YOU GET TO NAIL STAN!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Jones Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 I wouldnt say darker.. but deeper, more intense, grown up like (yes guybrush is now some way older).. and you cannot really compare MI1 and MI2 .. and both games are very, very funny. from insultswordfights to getting arrested by the cannibals, from largo voodoodoll to spitcontest and Elaines party with Guybrush the dog..

Gabez Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 Well, SOMI's pretty dark too of course. With the whole death of Guybrush under water, and the sinister woods, and the ghosts. Sure it's funny but the subject matter is still quite "dark". Mi2 just builds on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locke325 Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 Just asking but whats the screaming chair you guys are talking about? I got MI2 whiout sound and probably dint notice it. Oh yeah, Mi2 darker all the way. Kinda weird how it compares with Mi1 and 4 (havent played 3 yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destructomatic Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Yeah I'm with you locke, ive played the game a lot of times and dont remember a screaming chair.......so please some jar my memory. I'm sure I'd remember it if someone told me where it is..... I also agree that MI2 is a lot darker and twised. I don't really consider MI4 a Monkey Island game it is so pathetic. But MI3 was my fav.....although the 1st and 2nd followed a different plot.......which I've heard is a huge debate in itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryback Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 LECHUCK: I will then take your bones... still alive and in great pain... and make them into a chair. I will call it my screaming chair. Every morning I will sit in it and listen to you scream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
