Cemetery

Ok don't think I'm a wrist-slitting emo or something, but I really miss a cemetery as a location in the game. I feel the dark, eerie atmosphere is missing this time round. If you remember well, the previous Monkey island games (ok maybe except MI4) were creepy and not just funny.

What do you all think about this guys?

    I think the location of Episode 3 would be pretty dark, with broken ships and skeletons scattered everywhere. But we'd have to wait and see.

    I do like the cemeteries in MI games and nothing beats digging up a good corpse.

    Yeah, I think Jonathan Ackley and Larry Arhen (creators of CMI) said in a interview: "The perfect mix for Monkey Island is one part of humour and two parts of pirate things". I agree with this. And I missed in EMI more creepy atmosphere (well, the Myst of Times and Knuttin Attolon was OK, but I want more, like the meat-caverns in MI1, cemetery in MI2, or cemetery in MI3...

    I love Blood Island very much, I love the creepy atmosphere mix with some beautiful atmosphere that the impressive backgrounds give us... It's one of the best location in the series. I hope that Tales of MI will have creepy locations too.

    I complete agree 100%. Not just a cemetery location, but darker locations as a whole. When I played MI2 as a kid I remember being legitimately creeped out in LeChuck's fortress. And loved it.

    Doesn't get much darker then shoving you inside a giant manatee belly.
