Telltale Games

Agent_Orange · 07/08/2009, 11:44 pm

Hi! :-)
Just want to say that I am impressed by the new Monkey Island - Chapter 1. It really had the "good old" feel and mood that the older MI games had/have. Veery pleasing to sit down and play a new MI game. Have been wanting that for a looong time. :-D

I am wondering about when the release of the next chapter in the Tales of MI series is due. Anyone know a date or month?

Greetings from a die hard Monkey Island fan,

Definitely August, since the releases are monthly. But I know nothing about a precise date. : P

Rather Dashing · 07/08/2009, 11:46 pm

Judging from previous Telltale releases, approximately a month from now. Some of their seasons have taken a two-month break between episodes 1 and 2 rather than the 1 month break between all others, but if I remember correctly they generally told you when that was happening.

So my guess is approximately one month from now, potentially two.

Frogacuda · 07/08/2009, 11:50 pm

They said they don't expect a two month break this time, so it should be one. "Should" being the operative word, since there's no firm date yet.

Duate · 07/08/2009, 11:51 pm

my guess is august 7th

Agent_Orange · 07/09/2009, 12:06 am

Thnx ! :-)
That's not too long to wait.

Played through Chapter 1 yet? If so, satisfied?
I had hoped it didn't end as soon as it did, but they made the break
at a good point... :-D
Agree?

I had seriously expected it to end a lot sooner

Although I am sad that I played through it in one day (three sittings, about 4 hours all in all).
Next episode, I'm definitely going to turn hints off (turned them on for two puzzles) and NOT going to look into the hints forum (got a hint there that went something like "why don't you try to make him [van Winslow] turn the rope the other way?", which immediately led me to the solution).

nep4ron · 07/09/2009, 12:16 am

Same here, absolutely amazing first chapter, I think.
Thanks Telltale.
Hope the next chapter will be released in the early days of August.

Agent_Orange · 07/09/2009, 12:16 am

About same as me then... approx. 4 hours of playing time.

But... 4 times 5 is 20, so if you wait until christmas and play the
chapters then, when they all are released, you get longer playing time.

same here. i never got stuck and had to look something up, but left the hints on which always led me to the solution. ep 2 i'm gunna play no hint and no lookups. maybe it'll last longer.

... which is, without doubt, the longest Monkey Island to date. Okay, it's a matter of how well you're picking up the puzzles, I remember not being able to finish Monkey Island 2 for literally TWO YEARS because me (and a friend of mine as well) just couldn't find the light switch when you crash down into the tunnels on Dinky Island.

Hello,

I managed to play through it it roughly 4 hours. No hints used, lots of fun

Only the wait for the next Chapter is going to be torture. But at least I have the special Edition of MI1 to look forward to

The Riddle that took most of my time was boarding the ship (because of the way I play adventures).

Very good first chapter

oureh · 07/09/2009, 01:01 am

I was not impressed by the first chapter very easy not like CMI or EMI not at all challenging

Impossible3144 · 07/09/2009, 01:14 am

The people complaining about this supposedly being easy seem to have forgotten that this is only the first fifth of the game...

Agent_Orange · 07/11/2009, 06:43 pm

Total of 20 hours approx. playtime. :-D
Nice!

According to Wikipedia, August 9th, but I trust Wikipedia about as far as I can throw it... and since it is made of non-physical material, that is not very far.
