Thread: Tales of Monkey Island

Some dodgy dramatics (again): LeFlay makes her sacrifice for Guybrush by giving up her sliver of "reputation". The fact that it's a sacrifice for Guybrush (apparently spurred on by the guilt of her previous actions) is actually what opens up the portal... Except then she's surprised when she can't go through it herself -- meaning she fully expected to be able escape from death herself . So her actions were not...

Quote: Kroms : Read this , Erkki. You have to remember what the ring symbolizes . Hrmmm... It's an interesting read but I think it gives far too much credit to Elaine. Good episode, great series. Congrats to Jake and co! Is it strange that the biggest laugh I had from this episode was right at the end, when Elaine corrects Guybrush's pronunciation of 'La Esponja Grande'.

Yeah, I bet you guys could have gotten away with double the release time, but I don't know if that somehow leaves less money to me made. I was very surprised at the rate they were coming out!

Heh, the development schedule for TMI sounds mental. You should double that next time. ;

Yeah, this is great. Although I'll have to wait, I really cannot.

Some kind of fast travel system would have been nice. It's the only time a telltale game has pissed me off with backtracking. ) A result of running out of time, sorry to say. Would have let you take out the Crossroads map anywhere, instead of...

Man, after finishing Tales, I decided it was time for a Sam and Max replay, so I started back at the beginning of Season One. They're still good, but with 19 (holy shit. I just counted that for the first time...) episodes released since the end of Bright Side of the Moon, the difference in quality from their latest game to Culture Shock is huge. I beat all Telltale games in one sitting, pretty much on principle. I'm finding it much...

HEY KIDS, YOU'VE BEEN DRAFTED: Go here and vote for original things . Post a few lines of support. Don't let the thread just die. A little grassroots nudging may help tip scales in favor of a risk or two.

Yeah. On the risk of sounding like the ignorant cunt that I am, I think that Telltale's production schedule needs a shake-up. Tales was great, but a lot of its flaws wouldn't fly in a second season.
