Great advice.

Autists love bearded Guybrush, it's a fact.

>>4121518
There's nothing wrong with him having a beard, there's a problem with him having a banana shaped face

Curse Guybrush looks fine as does the whole game. Nothing wrong with stylized designs. All the best cartoons have exaggerated looking character designs.

Curse of Monkey Island is a beautiful hand drawn production unlike this lifeless mess >>4121485

No one cares that they're cartoony, it's that they're ugly as shit. The proportions are horrible and Guybrush looks like an enormous faggot. The hair alone is just atrocious. Zero aesthetic taste. How can anyone look at this and say, "Yeah, that looks like a well-drawn, appealing character?"

What a preposterously ignorant statement. I can easily say that about this design at a glance. I don't mean it though.

>>4121876
>and Guybrush looks like an enormous faggot
not that I like the terrible art, but Guybrush kind of was an enormous faggot

>>4121876
I remember REALLY hating Guybrush's look in Curse back in the day but I got over it. The HD remakes of the originals, however, are so ugly I can't stand it.

The MI Special Edition cover art also deserves to be thoroughly shat on while we're at it. The special editions themselves are good because you can just toggle the art back to the old style, but it's sad that they thought this was the right style to use.

>>4122007
Well considering Sonic Mania is going to be over a decade younger than '06, I would say we boomeranged right back around

By finding an art style and not tracing celebrities from the covers of movies

>>4122827
I wish they would've actually bothered to animate the Subsistence portraits instead of lazily slapping them over the originals.

>>4122697
>those areas in 1 where there are just random patches of giant pixels visible because they were too lazy/careless and didn't paint over the entire screen

>>4121454
Their designs in Curse are legitimately my favorite.

>>4121485
What is it with that weird ass hairstyle of Guybrush and the massive forehead? Reminds me of David Bowie for some reason. I hate that remaster so badly. It's sad.
I wish there was a hack to play 1 with the original graphics but voices.

>>4121494
I love this picture so much. There is so much to see. The purple eyes are a bit weird but oh well. My question: are they modeled after real people? I know with all those modern 3d games all the characters are actual people. So my question here is: Are they just totally made up and drawn from the artists head or are they based on real people and if so who are they? I want photos.

>>4121941
This artwork is still a masterpiece. I love it so much. He looks like Kurt Cobain.

>>4122697
WOW thanks to the special edition cover , which looks like shit, it's so embarrassing, what was Lucas ARTS thinking, I've noticed that LeChuck has a crow on his hat. I had never noticed this before.

>>4122697
It looks fine, it's just that the original is already perfect, which raises the question of why they needed to remake it in a simpler and less detailed style in the first place.

>>4121454
>>4121876
The problem isn't that these look bad, they look great honestly, it's that isn't monkey island. I honestly love the more realistic style of the first two monkey island as they make the silliness even more silly. It's a good style but too much of a change.

>>4123196
I was so stoked for the cartoony 3 because it felt perfectly like playing a cartoon

>>4123141
I'm pretty sure the remaster allows you to use original or new graphics, and voices or no voices. So you can have voices with the old graphics if you want.

It's fine except for guybrush's design. that said, I don't really consider it a proper sequel to MI2 for sweeping the ending of the last game entirely under the rug.

And the original did have a cartoony artstyle, it just looks so beautiful because of the great VGA art

You mean like a flooring inspector?

His own creation, Sam&Max, was such a perfect match for that particular company in that particular era, too.

I very much hate to be a "kids these days" type but that IT'S LIKE PLAYING A CARTOON sensation is lost on current audiences.

I guess it's similar to the "cinematic" thing with trying to make games play out like movies, but back in the day a game that looked and moved like a REAL cartoon from TV was as fucking novel as it got.

I think they're just "generic pretty people" that some artist came up with. The art in Monkey Island 1&2 are computerized versions of the paintings made for these games.

I wonder why they remade Guybrush look like... I don't know, a newborn babe who hasn't yet opened his eyes? It's hideous in every possible way

>>4124436

>Booty town

If MI2 was made today, they would shoehorn in a bunch of black culture references here

>>4123373
No. The remaster of 2 allows this but the remaster of 2 has a bug where you and Willy (or what's the name of that ginger midget that shows up as a pirate at the beginning of 3 - Wolly?) hang upside down and nothing happens. The bug never got fixed and renders the game unplayable. 1 only let's you switch between versions but you can't mix old and new together - sadly.

No, because they're not trying to make games play out like movies, they're trying to make games like movies fullstop.
