Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) | comment |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge is the second game in the Monkey Island series, released in 1991. It takes place some time after the first. Guybrush is starting to have trouble getting other pirates to listen to his stories about the last game, so he decides to actually do something piratey that he can make a new story out of. His quest this time is to find the four pieces to a treasure map leading to a fabulous treasure known only as "Big Whoop". As the title of the game indicates, however, Guybrush's old foe LeChuck returns from the dead once more (this time as a zombie), and tries to get his revenge on Guybrush.This marks the end of the old-school, Ron Gilbert Monkey Islands, as he left LucasArts the year after the release, with co-writer and designer Dave Grossman following in 1994, and the following installments in the series were, until Tales of Monkey Island came along, made without input from Gilbert or any of the other original writers. This game is given the twist-ending Gilbert wanted to put in the original game, an ending which divides the fanbase like nothing else in the entire canon.Finally followed up by Ron Gilbert's Return to Monkey Island in September 2022, which serves primarily as a sequel to LeChuck’s Revenge while maintaining some continuity with the three games made in the interim.A "Special Edition" Updated Re-release/remake was released in the summer of 2010, with redrawn artwork, voice acting from the cast of The Curse of Monkey Island, and creator commentary from Tim Schafer, Ron Gilbert and David Grossman. | |

Darker and Edgier: Much of the innocent goofiness of the first game is toned down. Guybrush is a hunted Heroic Comedic Sociopath that hurts other characters and LeChuck is a murderous creepy villain. The dramatic and gory elements are toned up, especially during the final encounter. | |

But only to other pirates. Almost all the really rotten things Guybrush can do are done in Woodtick (or to Stan), which is explicitly noted to be "a place where a pirate can be a pirate". And the ones he rips off who aren't scurvy as hell are the ones he can make amends with (you can spring Kate from prison and give Wally a new monocle). | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall: Par for the course. Under the sea, Guybrush can remark: "This monkey head is too heavy to carry to the surface. Considering this game has no drop verb, I'm doomed." Over the giant door with an absurd number of locks in LeChuck's fortress: "There is no way, not even in an adventure game, that I'd be able to get all those locks open." | |

Adaptation Deviation | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_23a1e2a9 | comment |
For those who played this game on the Commodore Amiga, there was also some Adaptation Deviation regarding the ending; specifically the cut back to Elaine by the large hole leaves out her second line questioning whether LeChuck had cast a SPELL on Guybrush. It's unknown whether this was a bug or whether the potential Sequel Hook was left out deliberately because LucasArts' developing Amiga versions was no longer going to be cost-effective unless Commodore drastically revamped the platform. This leaves the Amiga version with possibly the darkest interpretation of all as it leaves Guybrush in an alternate reality with LeChuck and no-one suspects what's happened to him. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: Some inventory items appear to be from the wrong century, such as the dollar bills and bonds in the pile of riches, and the cocktail glass, hubcap, manilla envelope, matchbook, laundry claim ticket, and library card, the Rock and Roll collector's plate, and the E Ticket. The bell in Governor Phatt's room looks like a modern alarm. The Phatt City Library references soda fountains (1774-1832), the term "Kangaroo court" (1841), cartoons (1843), zippers (1851-1893), the IRS (1862-1953), Social Darwinism (1870s), Jell-O (1881), the Dewey Decimal System (1876), record albums (19th century), the study of viruses (19th century), "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck" ("The Woodchuck Song," 1902), Surrealism (1920's), Nylon (1927-1939), rock music (1940's-1950's), collectible toy trucks (1960's), ZIP Codes (1963), video games (1947-1972), and software piracy (1970's). Then there's "Grammy Awards of the Renaissance," an "Elvis Lives" prediction of music in the future, an ambiguous entertainment industry and adult entertainment industry, and more modern genres of fiction and non-fiction like how-to books, self help books, and romance novels. The pirate themed books tend to reinforce the age of piracy as the current time period rather than it all being set in modern day. The wanted poster mentions FDA limits for rodent parts. Guybrush can suggest Macintosh Grey as the answer to Herman Toothrot's question. Guybrush can find a phone in the jungle to call the LucasArts hint line and ask about video games. The endgame introduces a modern looking underground building with modern doors, tunnels, signs, lighting, pipes, and an elevator, a helium tank that can be used for quoting pop songs and theme songs from television shows and movies, the return of the Grog machine, and teddy bears, modern shipping boxes, traffic cones, a modern-looking first aid room with surgical gloves and a hypodermic syringe, an amusement park with a rollercoaster, Chuckie's contemporary clothing, and Guybrush mentioning Nintendoâ„¢ games and the Junior Ultra Soldier Commando Assault Vehicleâ„¢ Guybrush and Chuckie played with, though it's not clear how much of this is really part of the game's setting. | |

Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_260926c3 | comment |
Failure Is the Only Option: Largo bumps into Guybrush and robs him left and right in the very first controllable scene when you try to leave the screen. Take a shot of grog and raise your hand if, in your first play, feeling smart/frustrated, you did reload/restart to go in the other direction, just to be mugged anyway. The animation changes a bit accordingly, but that's it. | |

Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: A few examples of Lucasarts referencing their parent company Lucasfilm's body of work: The way Guybrush replaces a book for another over the bed of Governor Phatt is exactly the same way Indiana Jones replaces a sandbox for an idol in Raiders of the Lost Ark. "Indy's Whip" is also available for sale in the local store. The Reveal plays out just like The Empire Strikes Back, but with more opportunities to misquote the conversation due to the Dialogue Tree. When LeChuck is critically injured, and asks Guybrush to take off his mask. | |

A Winner Is You: Using the "win the game" cheat (Ctrl+Alt+W) gives you one of a flat "You win! You scored 800/800 points" screen instead of the real ending. Roll credits. Governor Marley still appears in The Stinger, but instead of loudly pondering over whether Guybrush has been cursed by LeChuck, she simply wonders what she's doing standing next to this big hole. | |

Artifact Title: Monkey Island is nowhere to be found in this game, something that wouldn't happen again until Tales. The next game does reveal that the carnival at the end was part of Monkey Island, but considering that was made without Ron Gilbert's direction, it likely wasn't his intention to imply that. | |

The Bad Guy Wins: The infamous ending sees LeChuck seemingly trapping Guybrush as a child in an amusement park. For some fans, this was the "true" ending of the series until Ron Gilbert revisited it with Return to Monkey Island. | |

Gender Flip: In the 1991 original, when Guybrush calls the LucasArts Help Desk (then LucasFilm Games Help Desk) on Dinky Island, the phone operator on the other end of the phone appears near him... and it appears to be a woman named Chester! In the redrawn Special Edition, however, Chester the phone operator is now a man. Interestingly, both characters can be found in the Special Edition version, with female Chester appearing in Classic mode and male Chester appearing in the high-definition mode, and both characters even have unique voice actors. | |

We also don't find out what happened to Wally for the rest of the game.

Unintentionally Unwinnable | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b | comment |
Unintentionally Unwinnable: Early versions allowed Guybrush to get the 6000 pieces of eight needed to hire Kate Capsize one at a time by polishing the peg leg of one of the Men of Low Moral Fiber.note It would stop giving money once you reach a certain amount, but you could delay that by buying things from the antique dealer, which could later be sold back at full price. Doing this bypassed learning the trick to winning the spitting contest, which was later needed to escape from a death trap. The special edition fixes this by capping the number of pieces of eight Guybrush could earn this way far, far lower. | |

When we actually cut to him reciting his story after the opening credits, however, it turns out not only was he not even requested to tell it, the people he is telling it to actually are outright sick of hearing it. | |

Copy Protection | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_4156b553 | comment |
Copy Protection: The "Mix'n Mojo" code wheel◊. The game would start off by "rolling" two random ingredients (one on the outer wheel and one on the inner), and it would then ask for a specific recipe. When you rotated the wheel so that the two ingredients aligned, you would then have to locate the recipe, and two 2-digit numbers (in the form ##/##) would be revealed, showing how much of the two ingredients you needed. Putting in the correct amount would allow you to proceed. The Monkey Island Madness Compilation Rerelease skips this entirely (it's still present in the game though, putting it in Dummied Out territory) due to it being on a CD and no longer including the code wheel; however, this also means the difficulty options went down along with it, since the same screen used for the copy protection was also used to select the difficulty. ScummVM compensates for this by still running the copy protection but accepting any value as correct, even on the CD release. | |

Ambiguous Ending: Did Guybrush fall into the chasm and experience an illusion brought about by LeChuck, was LeChuck telling the truth, is everything Guybrush sees in the tunnels a dream after being knocked unconscious from falling, is Elaine right about LeChuck placing a spell on Guybrush, is all of reality being called into question after what was seen in the tunnel, was it all false information, why was all that stuff there if it was or wasn't real, are Guybrush's parents alive or dead, is Guybrush imagining his adventures as a child, is the story set in the age of piracy or is it really a modern day pirate themed theme park, are there multiple levels of reality where Guybrush is both a child with his parents and a pirate where his parents are dead, is Guybrush really dead and experiencing the whole thing as a dying dream, what is reality really, etc. Decades later Return to Monkey Island would resolve this - The kids are Guybrush's children, and they were role playing a story their father told them. | |

The building that looks extremely similar to the antique store is pretty much a dead giveaway. The Cave Behind the Falls on Phatt Island is reused for the ending sequence of the game, though this is justified since they were running out of disk space, and they originally had intended to use a much more factory-like room. Concept art of it still exists. Stan's animation is recycled from the first game, as pointed out in the audio commentary of the Special Edition. | |

Ear Trumpet: There's one old man on Booty Island whose job is to fire a cannon when the mail boat comes in. Probably because of being deafened by proximity to that loud cannon, he needs an ear trumpet to hear what Guybrush is saying. The launderer has been given one in the Special Edition, not that it helps him understand anything Guybrush says. | |

Not So Remote: Dinky Island is next to Monkey Island on the map. The Dinky Island tunnel connects directly to Mêlée Island, but now the island is within walking distance instead of requiring travel by ship, suggesting the area is presented in a reduced scale or forced perspective like Disneyland, with the areas closer together than they appear. The items in the tunnel like the broken grog machine and shipping containers suggest the areas are regularly maintained by employees like an amusement park. The Dinky Island jungles appear to be modernized, and may not be so remote and isolated if they are just another area of the theme park. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Ordinarily a completely redundant trope, considering this is Monkey Island. There are however, two infamous puzzles that thwarted players utterly in the day, and still leave newcomers totally stumped wondering how are you to progress. Not because, they're difficult, but because they are insultingly easy. To the point where the games designer is no doubt mocking your intelligence: The gambling "puzzle", is where gamers often overthink its complexity, thinking there's a simple mathematical formula to determine what numbers the various hand gestures correspond to. It's not. The correct answer is always the amount of fingers he shows in his example. The fortress "puzzle" once again tricks you, as you helplessly assume each line of the skeleton song is the clue. It's not. You have to follow each verse for each statue, thus leaving a lot of repeating text on your song as an unwanted distraction. | |

Nested Story Reveal: Zigzagged. Teased at the end of the game, with LeChuck claiming he's actually Guybrush's 'weird brother Chuckie', and the two of them walking out into a theme park version of Booty Island as children, suggesting the whole thing was just the product of a child's overactive imagination... until Chuckie's eyes flash red as the two walk off with their parents. The Stinger with Elaine has her wondering what's taking Guybrush so long and hoping LeChuck didn't "cast some sort of SPELL on him." The sequel explicitly shows the Carnival of the Damned as a real place, with Guybrush Lost at Sea aboard a detached bumper car and returning to the Carnival (shown to be on Monkey Island) at the end of the game. | |

Recursive Canon: Hal Barwood's critical review of the game can be found in the Phatt City Library. Guybrush says "This isn't Monkey Island 1" when trying to open the spy glass. Guybrush can call the LucasArts help line and ask for help with leaving the jungle in Monkey II. Guybrush can ask about why adventure games cost so much, when is Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe going to ship, and who came up with that dumb stump joke. Chester says they've received too many calls about the stump joke and asks that Guybrush no longer ask about it. | |

Animation Bump | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_7ea2a915 | comment |
Animation Bump: Most of the (original) game is rather crudely animated, using mostly Limited Animation, but LeChuck stands out: His speech and walking animations have more detail and complicated movement patterns than other characters, and during the final confrontation has things such as anticipation and overlapping action. According to the Special Edition commentary, it actually made animating him a giant pain because his asymmetrical movement meant that they couldn't just flip his sprite when he is standing in the other direction. In the Special Edition, Guybrush, LeChuck, and for whatever reason, Rum Rogers Jr. are 3D models designed to look like sprites, allowing them a much wider range of movement and actions compared to the simplistic sprites of everyone else. | |

Left Hanging: After Guybrush's rope snaps and he falls down the pit, Elaine, still hanging onto a rope, is left wondering if Guybrush is being tricked by one of LeChuck's spells. | |

Gainax Ending | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_82accf22 | comment |
Gainax Ending: After Guybrush falls down the hole in Dinky Island, he finds himself in some concrete tunnels. LeChuck is there with a Voodoo Doll and he tortures Guybrush with it after revealing that he is Guybrush's brother. Big Whoop only contains a ticket with the letter "E" on it. In the tunnels Guybrush finds an elevator that leads to Mêlée Island, carnival equipment, and a hospital room with two skeletons that he immediately identifies as his parents. Later he builds a Voodoo Doll and nearly kills LeChuck with it, then he takes off LeChuck's mask and reveals that LeChuck is his long lost brother Chuckie. Then the scene cuts to both of them as kids at an amusement park where Guybrush's parents chastise him for wandering off, and then they go to a ride. But at the last second Chuckie makes an Aside Glance and lightning arches from his eyes. Finally during The Stinger Elaine wonders if Guybrush has fallen into another trap. And that's why there is a Broken Base (for this game). Many discussions with Epileptic Trees and Wild Mass Guessing have ensued. Nobody knows for sure what the ending originally was all about, and the next game simply goes with the "it was all just a spell cast by LeChuck" interpretation. For those who played this game on the Commodore Amiga, there was also some Adaptation Deviation regarding the ending; specifically the cut back to Elaine by the large hole leaves out her second line questioning whether LeChuck had cast a SPELL on Guybrush. It's unknown whether this was a bug or whether the potential Sequel Hook was left out deliberately because LucasArts' developing Amiga versions was no longer going to be cost-effective unless Commodore drastically revamped the platform. This leaves the Amiga version with possibly the darkest interpretation of all as it leaves Guybrush in an alternate reality with LeChuck and no-one suspects what's happened to him. The Ron Gilbert led Return to Monkey Island addresses this ending by depicting the kids as Guybrush's children in the future playing out a story their dad told them. This sets up that game's framing device, Guybrush telling his younger son about another time he hunted for the Secret of Monkey Island. It ends in a similarly ambiguous way, with Guybrush summing up the theme of both games by basically saying it doesn't really matter what actually happened as long as it makes a good story. Bonus points to Return for having a puzzle involving Guybrush learning how to tell exaggerated stories from a group of fishermen to explain why he keeps doing it. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: The fate of Largo LaGrande after the Fortress explosion is also bizarrely unknown, even 3 games after his last appearance. Intriguingly, the Special Edition has re-opened this question somewhat. In the original version, the fortress was utterly obliterated by the blast, making it seem as if Largo had been blown to smithereens. The Special Edition version on the other hand just has one of the fortress's side walls collapsing, increasing the chances of Largo surviving. So far, the only place where Largo's fate has been so much as discussed was an April Fool's Day gag with the World of Monkey Island website, where "leaked" audio files from a new Monkey Island game included dialogue for Largo. And of course the ultimate example: "What was the secret of Monkey Islandâ„¢?" We also don't find out what happened to Wally for the rest of the game. A scene that didn't make it into the final game would have shown him dropping his monocle into shark-infested water, then falling in trying to retrieve it, but it was cut because the developers themselves finally took pity on him. | |

Playground Song: Guybrush can entreat one of the two friendly pirates on Scabb Island to sing a song. After a couple semi-bawdy numbers about Elaine, he resorts to this song. You can choose to interject with a random number and he'll jump to it; and if you're patient enough to let him get down to one, the other pirate will say a different number and he'll start there again, meaning he'll keep singing numbers indefinitely if you let him. In the special version, a great amount of numbers are voiced until the pirate enters a "da-da-da-da-da" loop. | |

Take That!: A book in the Phatt City library is called "The Majesty of the Sierras". If you examine it, Guybrush remarks, "The Sierras? Majestic? I think not." On a milder note, the A Winner Is You screen when you use the cheat code to "win" the game awards you the full 800/800 completely arbitrary points you'd get in Sierra adventure games of the era — side-by-side with the deliberately unsatisfying "You win!" message. | |

Lost in Translation | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_b7920c43 | comment |
Lost in Translation: Perhaps a worst case scenario — the waterfall puzzle is a pun on "monkey wrench." Since this is a term only ever used in America though, the foreign English-speaking countries were scratching their heads trying to solve a puzzle that had an arbitrary solution as it stood. It got even worse when it was translated, with the translators struggling to find a way for this puzzle to make sense. Needless to say, Ron Gilbert made sure not to use another puzzle with a wordplay solution again. note The Spanish version of the game went around this by adding a book to the Phatt library titled "101 uses for monkeys", which explains that monkeys can be used as "English wrenches", the Spanish equivalent of "monkey wrenches" | |

Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_b8ccfb2 | comment |
Weakness Turns Her On: The way to get Elaine to forgive you (until you manage to put your foot in your mouth again, that is) is to grovel as pathetically as possible. Her response when you finally wear her down implies this trope. | |

Shout-Out | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The two pirates Guybrush talks to at the beginning of the game are named Bart and Fink. One of the costumes in the costume shop is Max, changed to a purple tentacle in the special edition. In the Special Edition, one of the portraits in Governor Phatt's mansion has been updated to show Manny from Grim Fandango. While attempting to win Elaine back, Guybrush has the option to say "Please baby please baby baby baby please," a reference to Spike Lee's film She's Gotta Have It. Walt the Dog is a reference to Walt Disney and the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. The Phatt City Library catalog references A Fistful of Dollars, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Elvis Presley, The Little Engine That Could, Great Expectations, How to Travel the World on $50 a Day, How to Win Friends and Influence People, I am Joe's Body by J.D. Ratcliff, I Married a Monster from Outer Space, Indiana Jones, Lady Godiva, "The Joy of Sex", Time-Life Magazine, Walt Disney, and The Wizard of Oz. Guybrush tests out his Helium Speech by quoting "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees, "That's the Way I Like It" by KC and the Sunshine Band, "The Lollipop Guild" from The Wizard of Oz, "I'm a Little Bit Country" by Donny & Marie Osmond, and "Love Is All Around" from The Mary Tyler Moore Show. When LeChuck says he brought Guybrush a little surprise, one of the responses is "I don't suppose it's a Nintendoâ„¢ game." The fake addresses Guybrush can give to the librarian on Phatt Island when filling out his library card include 221B Baker Street and 1060 West Addison. After Guybrush uses the voodoo doll to dismember LeChuck partially, the zombie pirate begs him to take his mask off, so Guybrush will see "the true face of his brother", much like Darth Vader asking Luke to take his helmet | |

Developer's Foresight | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: One of the first dialogue options with Stan is him asking you how much money you have to spend on a coffin. You reply with however much gold you have at the moment (a very small amount), to which he replies (paraphrasing): "Consider cremation." You cannot access this dialogue choice to try again, it is one-time only. However, if you're carrying the large amount of gold you're supposed to use to charter the boat from Kate, and you've yet to have this dialogue with Stan, you can do it and he instead says something about how unfortunate for Guybrush that the cheapest model is just a few hundred gold more... If Guybrush attempts to take the coat hanging in Elaine's room while he's still wearing his party dress, he'll comment that he's "already wearing enough women's clothing." Once he's changed back into his normal clothing, trying to take the coat again will make him claim "I'm warm enough in the one I have on." He can't dognap Guybrush the Dog while he's wearing the dress either. Another great example avoids making the game Unintentionally Unwinnable. It's entirely possible to avoid visiting Stan until you have the hammer and nails in your inventory. Normally, Stan gives Guybrush the clean, white hankie the first time Guybrush attempts to leave his shop. If, however, you attempt to nail the coffin shut while Stan is sitting in it during your first visit, Stan automatically pops the lid open before you can do so and hands you the hankie. Quite handy, considering the hankie is necessary for solving the game's last puzzle. You can go on mixing drinks pointlessly, but there's a limit on how much money can you waste so the game does not get unwinnable. Once you buy enough drinks you become a regular and don't get charged in Scabb Island bar. Guybrush becomes bluer and bluer if you feel like testing his 10-minute breath-holding capability claims. Around the time mark, he gives up and returns to the surface. The Stinger still plays halfway through the credits if you use the cheat code, but along with the A Winner Is You fakeout ending, instead of Elaine's normal line hoping LeChuck "didn't put some kind of SPELL on [Guybrush]", she wonders aloud what she's doing next to this big hole. | |

Instant People: Just Add Water!: There is a voodoo powder, Ash-2-Life that can (temporarily) bring a person back from the dead after his body has been reduced to ashes. It specifically only works on ashes. | |

Limited Animation | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_e034faef | comment |
Most of the (original) game is rather crudely animated, using mostly Limited Animation, but LeChuck stands out: His speech and walking animations have more detail and complicated movement patterns than other characters, and during the final confrontation has things such as anticipation and overlapping action. According to the Special Edition commentary, it actually made animating him a giant pain because his asymmetrical movement meant that they couldn't just flip his sprite when he is standing in the other direction. | |

To the Pain: LeChuck is very, very proud of his Goldbergian acid pit deathtrap, to the point where he is compelled to explain every single step of it to Guybrush and Wally...including the final phase: Guybrush can also ask "Why Didn't You Just Shoot Me?" His answer? "Because we had an extra disk." | |

Shake Someone, Objects Fall: In the opening moments of gameplay, the moment you walk left or right, over the bridge or out of town, Largo appears, backs you onto the bridge, then picks Guybrush up over his head and shakes him, cleaning out your entire inventory of your starting wealth and leaving you with, at most, a shovel. | |

Younger Than They Look | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_e9db9908 | comment |
Younger Than They Look: Assuming what little we know about the series' sense of time is canon note This game is explicitly stated to take place two years after the events of the first game, and in Tales of Monkey Island, Elaine claims that Curse Of Monkey Island takes place three years after that. In Curse, Guybrush reveals himself to be twenty when he shows Dingy Dog his I.D, so simple subtraction will reveal his ages in the two previous games. Due to the unclear canonical status of anything revealed post-Revenge, however, all of these numbers should be taken with a grain of salt., Guybrush is only nineteen years old in this game. Compare his design to how he looks in later games, where he's actually older, and you'll find yourself raising eyebrows. | |

Oddball in the Series | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_f068cba | comment |
Oddball in the Series: It still follows the Monkey Island formula closely enough, but the much more open-ended structure, along with LeChuck acting like a murderous psychopath rather than an evil goofball, the complete lack of any insult combat game, Elaine having a hostile relationship with Guybrush (at least from her side) rather than being madly in love with him, and the gameplay forcing Guybrush to be needlessly cruel or jerkish to advance the plot, combine to give this a somewhat different feel to most of the other games in the series. Some of the latter games would take some inspiration from this one, however, particularly Return, where Ron Gilbert finally came back as lead developer. | |

You Bastard! | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_f642b1f9 | comment |
You Bastard!: Wally's dialogue after you steal his monocle is really depressing, and you will have a hard time to not feel like an utterly bad and mean person about leaving him in his blinded state, especially when he talks about how he will "die blind, hungry and alone," followed by "I have never hurt anyone." At least you eventually have to replace it. This also happens when you get the cook fired from the bar, when you cut loose the hotel owner's lizard, when you saw off the pirate's pegleg, when you frame Kate Capsize, and when you steal the barkeep's monkey. Guybrush really was a true pirate in this game - he was not afraid to do something really sociopathic to help achieve his own goals. But only to other pirates. Almost all the really rotten things Guybrush can do are done in Woodtick (or to Stan), which is explicitly noted to be "a place where a pirate can be a pirate". And the ones he rips off who aren't scurvy as hell are the ones he can make amends with (you can spring Kate from prison and give Wally a new monocle). | |

The fortress "puzzle" once again tricks you, as you helplessly assume each line of the skeleton song is the clue. It's not. You have to follow each verse for each statue, thus leaving a lot of repeating text on your song as an unwanted distraction. | |

Dude, Where's My Respect?: No one is very inclined to believe Guybrush's claims that he is the Mighty Pirate who defeated LeChuck, this is particularly ironic in MI2 as he tells everyone about his exploits enough that people who know him are sick of hearing about them. Guybrush is a real bore about his Glory Days and has penned a trilogy of books about his killing of LeChuck. Guybrush's bad luck continues as he defeats Largo and everyone else takes credit for it or believes someone else's story. | |

Cruelty Is the Only Option | |
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Video Game) / int_fc25c2fb | comment |
Cruelty Is the Only Option: Wally's dialogue after you steal his monocle tugs at your heartstrings, but you can't progress through the game without taking it. And, though he's less sympathetic, Stan does the same thing when you seal him in his casket. Both seem even crueler with the voice acting in the Special Edition. In Wally's case is even worse if you're playing in the Easy Difficulty setting of the original game, since in Normal Difficulty you later find another lens to replace the Monocle you stole, but there's no such item in Easy Difficulty, since Wally's role is reduced, which means he never gets his sight back in the whole game. You can even take the Monocle without ever exchanging a word with him, treating the poor kid as mere scenery. | |
