IF MI6 is being announced (TMI2), WHAT DO YOU WANT?

[DeLuca]

1. A NEW Title (Not Tales of Monkey Island Season 2). I personally like Return to Monkey Island.

2. At least one location from SMI-CMI

3. At least one returning character from SMI-CMI

4. Winslow

5. LeChuck (I feel like this one might be a long shot, his death seemed pretty final, especially with the Morgan ghost pirate hunter crap that I wasn't too happy with).

6. A DIFFERENT Morgan (Nicki Rapp can still do the voice, but I'd like her fangirl to be completely gone and have a new, tough, resolved to KILL pirates Morgan).

7. British Navy would be cool

8. New graphics. New look for GB, keep his facial proportions the same but make it smoother. In a year or two the Telltale tool is gunna need a major revamp. Esp in 2011 it's hard to release games without fabric physics and still be considered competitive. I know this is an expense, but its an investment that would definitely pay off.

What do YOU want to see?

[doodo!]

Not POTC ^....

[jeeno0142]

I want Lemonhead. <3

[Purple Tentacle]

1. Memorable locations from past games, perfectly recreated in glorious 3D! While I enjoyed exploring Melee Island again in Escape from Monkey Island, I personally felt disappointed that so much of the island had been altered to a near unrecognisable state.

2. The return of Largo Lagrande/Wally/Men of Low Moral Fibre/The Cannibals

3. No highly random plot lines about voodoo sponges or ultimate insults. What I enjoyed (plot wise) about the first three games were the semi-serious pirate stories told in a comical fashion.

Kidnappings, voodoo dolls and cursed rings all have that piratey flair I'm looking for! A voodoo sponge, not so much.

4. Stick with the character development and drama, as demonstrated in Tales of Monkey Island. There were some truly gripping and emotional moments in there! MORE!!!

5. Winslow and Morgan

6. Fully orchestrated music and varied character models.

Awesome

[Silverwolfpet]

1. Return of the full cast (including the TMI actors such as Nicki)

2. I actually loved the Desinger for a Day contest, and the "name book titles in voodoo lady's bookshelf"...those were brilliant and I'd love to put the little gray cells to work again.

3. Stan and Murray - they never get old.

4. Maybe a new outfit for Guybrush. Green anyone? He never had green. Maybe dark green with some yellow artifacts, I dunno.

5. This is number five, although I would easily place it as number one... I would really like if Majus, Suro, Mihai and Martin would have enough time to gather once more so we can work together on IWWH in TMI2. Just working with Herr Majus on the scripts was a blast, I never laughed so hard in my entire life. Yeah, that would be awesome.

[Falanca]

-I don't want Morgan to change, and have two different lovable sides of her like in the original intents.
-End of the series. Yes I want that. A grand conclusion of the story, what could be more epic?
-Going back to Monkey Island, AND this being NOT forced.

Going off both of these, I have to say that I'd love to see Pat Pinney back to voice Stan. I mean, I wouldn't say a thing if he hadn't voiced Stan in years, but he's voiced him in both special editions. Surely he has no qualms about voicing the character now...
Don't get me wrong, Hammon did a good job with the voice, but it just wasn't fitting for the character in my opinion.

Also, maybe cool it with the short and chubby pirate model, okay Telltale? The tall pirates weren't as bothersome to me for whatever reason, but that short model was just grating by the end.
That said... bring Winslow back for cryin' out loud!

Was going to post something like that.

Actually, I kind of want to see Guybrush looking a little different myself. I know I said so in another thread a long time ago, but the reason I want him to look even slightly different is because he's never looked the same in any of his games and I don't think that chain should be broken.

[Hayden]

- The coin interface.
- 2-month gaps between episodes
- Morgan (as an ally)
- An unrealistic amount of lower decks on the Screaming Narwhal
- LeChuck excluded completely
- Some actual Elaine badassery

[Jen Kollic]

- I'd like Morgan to return, but I agree with Falanca, I like her having different sides to her personality, having her just be completely badass would be kinda boring IMO. But I would like her to have gotten over her infatuation with Guybrush, she can still be fangirly without actually being in love with him. The worst case scenario for me would be for her to basically be a female LeChuck, only obsessed with Guybrush instead of Elaine. Ugh.
- I would also like some Elaine badassery. Give the woman more guns dammit!
- WINSLOW. If Winslow returns, I'd also like Anemone to return as well, just so that Guybrush can continue to be disturbed by their relationship.
- Seeing inside the Screaming Narwhal, or whatever ship is being used.
- The Voodoo Lady NOT being the main villain, I'd rather she remains a grey character. Far-reaching Machiavellian plans don't necessarily have to be evil. I do not object to her APPEARING to be the main villain, just as long as it doesn't turn out that she actually is the villain.
- Stan and Murray. I like them both!
- Having a game without LeChuck would be interesting, but if he does come back, I'd really hope that Earl Boen is available to do the voice-acting.

[Ribs]

Meh, if it is a new MI then it'll be New Villain for 3-4 episodes who accidentally revives LeChuck, that way they can have Earl only record once so they don't have to put up with an interim guy like in the first Series.

Also, Stan's voice actor for TOMI was better then the Special Editions/COMI in my opinion, so yeah. Although SWP is the closest to what I picture Stan sounding like from IWWH.

Also, a new name. X of Monkey Island, but not Tales 2, because it'd be silly if it went SOMI, MI2:LCR, COMI, EFMI, TOMI, TOMI2

They did it for Final Fantasy X and X-2 ._.

[DAISHI]

I don't think a new title is important. If it's ToMI 2, then so be it.

I definitely want them to give LeChuck a rest.

I don't think fabric physics is really a necessity in games like these, but in general Telltale has been getting better with their graphics game after game, so I expect the graphics to continue improving.

A "resolved to kill" Morgan and the British Navy just sound like we're veering closer and closer to the Pirates of the Caribbean.

I do like Winslow and I wouldn't mind some characters from previous games returning, especially an expanded on Captain Dread. I don't think new locations are a necessity but I guess it would be interesting to see Booty Island. Love the Mardi Gras stuff.

I'd kind of like to play as Elaine for a bit in a new game.

Orchestral music. Let's not compress this for Wii Ware this time.

[Falanca]

-Yeah, Jared as a COMPOSER this time, not only the sound check guy :<

[DeLuca]

You guys realize a lot of POTC drew on MI right? As in the first two... as in the ones we champion as the best?

[Ignatius]

1. OF COURSE not TMI2. Why all of a sudden an iconic game franchise should get stuck with the last game? So, like always, a new name, and new adventures with new characters.

2. New character models. The clothes at least.

3.The classics in: (Elaine, LeChuck, Voodo Lady, Stan. Murray is optional but i would like it too)

4.Little reference to Tales...it's too soon. It should feel like a new Monkey game, not Tales 2. And that means no Winslow or Morgan. Not in this at least, maybe in a Monkey 7.

5.Maybe give some answers and stop adding more mysterious unknown plans that are never revelead.

6.A Guybrush more like in MI2. He is on his own adventure. He is not worring about Elaine all the time, he is not fixing something he did wrong or saving the world, he is just on his own piratey adventure. More piratey stuff. You can't save the caribbean all the time.

7.Less use of Voodoo in a Deus Ex way. At some point it start to look cheap.

That's enough bitching i guess.

[DeLuca]

^^ yes yes yes yes yes ^^

Not every MI fan does that...probably the majority does though.

[GuruGuru214]

Throwing in my thoughts on Stan, I'd be happy if they brought him back with either VA, just as long as they don't use Pat Fraley again. He was just plain awful.

Only because those were (at the time) the only Final Fantasy games with a connected story and recurring characters. It's why we ended up seeing a couple of games called "Final Fantasy XII: Subtitle" and spin-offs with the name Final Fantasy VII on them.

If the Monkey Island games were all thematically similar isolated pirate stories and we were talking about a new game that would buck the trend and tie to one of the previous stories, then I'd accept the X-2/Tales 2 argument. But they're not, we're not, and I don't.
