Return to Monkey Island * 1
    #27780495 - 05/16/22 03:51 PM (1 year, 8 months ago)

A pirate I was meant to be! Trim the sails and roam the sea!

Anybody following the mixed reactions to Ron Gilbert reviving Monkey Island?

Personally, I would have loved to have seen the action-verb board and pixel art make a comeback. I can appreciate the effort that went into making the pixel images work, and I think the old-style was a winning formula.
When I played the special editions of MI1 and MI2, I preferred the pixel art over the "updated" art too...

Awesome, looking forward to it.

I've got all the MI games off steam except for the 3d version one.

I too preferred the pixel art over the updated mode but more because of that large stupid multiple use mouse pointer (update gfx mode).

Why couldn't they have just kept everything the same, but with just better graphics is beyond (the seven seas to) me.

Hopefully they don't repeat the same mistake.

For sure, old graphics and action board the best
