Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Crosses the Line Twice: Locking Stan up inside one of his own coffins.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • A pirate gloating about having a bucket of mud... isn't that a bit like a pirate gloating about having a jar of dirt?
    • "That is a nice-looking beard. One thing's for sure... I am never shaving this off."
    • Guybrush's beard in the original version of this game is probably about as badass as he can ever realistically hope for. The Special Edition reduces it to wispy fuzz that barely even qualifies as a beard at all, but this leads to some Hilarious in Hindsight moments since Guybrush spends the whole game talking about how much effort it took him to grow his beard, when it's barely even noticeable (which Wally eventually calls him out on in the sequel).
  • Non Sequitur Scene: The dream sequence. Okay, it is referenced later on as the solution to a puzzle but three games and 19 years later, we still have no idea why it happened or what the fuck it was supposed to mean.
  • They Changed It, Now It Sucks: A surprisingly large amount of fans were upset that the Special Edition omitted the original version's title sequence, even though it would have been slightly redundant when you can listen to the main theme in its entirety in the main menu. The Bone Song's music was also out of sync with the lyrics. A patch released on July 29 restored both the original intro and credit sequence for the classic version, as well as addressing the issues with iMuse music and sound effects and fixing the lyrical sync with the Bone Song; interestingly, the intro is fully voiced, meaning that they had at least planned on making an HD remasterization of it, one can only hope they do it in a future patch...
  • Values Dissonance: Apparently it's not acceptable to make jokes about white slavery anymore.
  • The Woobie: Wally.
