Creating a video game should be as good as receiving it. If this is an expected chapter of a historical game, capable of having laid the foundations of the history of graphic adventures, everything takes on even more value. Nevertheless Ron Gilbertcreator of Monkey Island (and the upcoming Return to Monkey Island), had to block comments on the site grumpygamer.com after receiving some offensive and attacking ones.
Now promptly deleted, these comments must have hurt Gilbert in the soul to the point of having shared this message.
As you can read, Ron Gilbert wrote: “I am closing the comments. People are behaving badly and I am about to cancel the personal attacks made on the comments. It's a fantastic game and everyone on the team is proud of what they are doing. Play it or don't play it but don't ruin it for others. I will not do any more posts about the game. The joy of sharing has been taken away from me. "
Hard words from what we can read, given the final message. We remember that Return to Monkey Island it could also be the last game in the series: according to the official website, the title is described as "The thrilling conclusion of the Monkey Island series that marks the return of creator Ron Gilbert, along with co-writer and designer Dave Grossman, art director Rex Crowle and composers Peter McConnell, Michael Land and Clint Bajakian. " In short, we could be in front of the last definitive chapter of the series, which as we remember will reconnect at the end of the second chapter, skipping the following ones (which were not made by Ron Gilbert).
Join the hilarious misadventures of Guybrush in Return to Monkey Island, the sequel written by series creators Ron Gilbert and Dave Grossman. Brought to life with stunning new visuals by Rex Crowle (Knights & Bikes, Tearaway) and part of the original Monkey Island voice cast, Return to Monkey Island will have new intuitive controls, accessibility features and even a few jokes.
