I'm sure this isn't going to be a popular opinion but I'm starting to get the feeling that Telltale shouldn't make another Monkey Island game. After the disappointing experiences that were Back to the Future and Jurassic Park just doesn't seem like they are same company they once were.

Even the Walking Dead, while an improvement on the former two games still isn't up to par. It still suffers from the shallow gameplay, limited environments, and laughably few selectable objects that are present in all the recent Telltale adventures. I mean what if Telltale made another Monkey Island game and it was as unambitious and simple as Back to the Future, babying the player through every linear and limited passage? That would almost be worse than if they did nothing at all. I'd love nothing more than to see a new Monkey Island game but at this point maybe it would be best if it was handled by someone else, like the dream team over at Double Fine or even internally developed at LucasArts by the guys who did the Monkey Island Special Editions. I'd hate to get all excited by a new season of Tales only to encounter same the restrictive, shallow gameplay Telltale seems so fond of these days.
