    What a mess. It looks like some Bulgarian cartoon from the seventies...

      There will be a pixel mod for the game and all pixel fans will be not happy, again.

    Oh dear baby Jesus, it looks worse and worse. What the hell do these guys think? I don't mind a change in style but this just looks plain ugly, there is absolutely no aesthetic appeal in it. It looks like a real bad example of outsider art (art brut).

    I will safely pass on this one. Don't like the artwork at all.

    I'm trying to be optimistic about the story and developments of the relationships between Guybrush and Elaine. Le Chuck and Guybrush. Will there be a secret weapon that Le Chuck is attempting to learn how to use on Monkey Island? Will Elaine try to build a settlement there, become governor again?

    Finally, that ugly art style matches the character designs.

    First Monkey Island is in my "all time top 5" and I love the second one also. Third was ok and fourth lost my interest in the beginning. I don't talk about Telltale's crap.

    And this... I just wish they would let this monkey rest in peace. And yeah, art style is a total turn off.
