    I loved it. All of it!! :)

    Murray was great & was worked into the episode perfectly. Didn't feel forced at all. Loved the credits at the end too. He made me lol hard! :D

    I thought it was by far the best chapter yet. Pure class!

    I think it's the best episode so far! Loved the humor with the pirate crew. (Especially the dead one.)
  • edited September 2009
    Whee :D
    Not quite as good as episode 2, but better than the first one. Murray was sooo much better than his incarnation in MI4. And Grog XD? Hilarious ;)
    More details will follow.

    the credits rock!!!
  • edited September 2009
    Where was Grog XD?! I totally missed that. :(
  • edited September 2009
    Yeah, I think it's the best one so far. More interesting and fun character interactions than the other chapters so far. And while it was short, it felt a little longer than the other chapters. Just when I thought I was going to get a "Coming soon" it moved on to another part of the game.

    Just finished it. It was great, all the way through. Even the credits...

    I like how TT are managing to hide the reuse of character models a lot better now. Bugeye was another Guybrush model but with a different nose & some very imaginative make up/tatoos. Moose was a model that's been reused loads but the hair & stoner persona totally made him unique. And I believe Noogie was the Davy Niperkin model but he looked completely different.

    You are getting better with every chapter TT. Awesome!

    So far, the best of the Tales.

    Awesome, hands down better than one and two from the pure Murry comedy Gold. Now.....we have to wait even longer for Chapter 4...........

    Agreed, this aspect has been getting so much better since ep01. Only Noogie was a bit too familier still.

    I loved it too. So far the series is shaping up to be really great. Now let's see these two last chapters :D

    Doh! I will look out for it on my second play through.

    Finally! I can share my opinion! It's so hard to keep your mouth shut when you write a review!
    I laughed for minutes and minutes, and couldn't stop... consumed tons of oxigen... man, I ask Telltale, WHO? WHO was the brilliant Mastermind that thought up Sister Agnes?? I want a wallpaper with that mug!!
    What did you guys think?

    I'd just like to get a copy of those Manatee travel phrases...

    When i read that review I was looking forward to the nun, and was looking out for it the whole time, then when it happened i totally forgot you'd warned us about it! I liked it but i think maybe you could explain why it harrowed you so much?

    Loved the MI2 throwback complete with a Captain Kate theme reprisal in the dive down to the ocean floor. Though Kate didn't throw Guybrush overboard...

    Murray trying to chat up Morgan was a good highlight for me. I never knew Murray had it in him. Though I was amazed at how readily and unobjectionably Guybrush gave Murray a body, given how he spent so much of CMI trying to keep him away from a) Murray's own arm, and b) other skeletons in the Blood Island cemetary.
  • edited September 2009
    No dout really, this episode has been the best for now. A lot of details like Winslow coughing inside the ship infected by the pox, with all that lights glowing from inside, or when guybrush go crazy with the bongos, are really quality details.
    A bit short, and still being easy. Some spanish references are wrong, but funny, like "La Esponja Pequeno" xDD, (its really "La esponja pequeña").
    Do we gonna have the voodoo cards in our preorder special edition??? PPPPPPLEEEEEASE????

    Good job telltale

    Damn, that soundtrack cue was great. Just a pity about all those people who won't get it... same as with the
    monocle puzzle

    Was a bit stumped it was so short. Played through the fastest so far, but have to agree it was the funniest episode so far. The credits certainly didn't get as boring as they usually do ^^ Brilliant addition.
  • edited September 2009
    I loved it :)
    Loved the new characters and of course the return of Murray
    Morgan also keeps getting better and better as one of the new main characters, can't wait to see where she'll end up

    The ending was a bit predictable but oh well... finding Esponja Grande already was a surprise

    Also, the whole diving to the bottom MI2 style was really well done, as was the choice of music. And good to see you made co-director Jake ;) Good co-directing!
  • edited September 2009
    I was like "Dang! Is it over already?!"

    Felt quite short imo, but definately best episode ever!
    Hitting on women? My speciality! Even manatees obviously...
  • edited September 2009
    I really loved it. This is my favorite episode yet, because the whole thing works! Puzzles, locations, characters are fitting together just perfectly!

    Though I am a little (just a leetle) bit dissapointed of the ending. Moe’s »Knock Guybrush down«-action wasn’t that surprising for me (oh well, I just love cliffhangers like the ones in Narwhal, they were mindblowing!).

    Still, I wonder what happens next… hmm…

    Oi, olavra, stop scaring me with that awesome avatar!

    EDIT: Yes, totally forgot, Junaid is right: The diving-sequenz was beautiful! Same animations and music like the old days, gave me shivers!

    I just loved the looks on her face during most of the game, especially after her "date"
  • edited September 2009
    With how it ended does this mean Murray won't be back for the rest of the season now?

    Was a fantastic episode really enjoyed the length and puzzles I will say its the best episode so far, can epi 4 or 5 top it?
  • edited September 2009
    Guybrush needs to drop Elaine and court Morgan already. It's a shame it will never happen.
  • edited September 2009
    I really enjoyed this episode. The pirate face-off, and the tarot/possession puzzle were the high points of the series for me. There were a few points when I got stuck, but never for so long that it frustrated me.

    In the very beginning, I was worried that the setting might be too out there for me... A giant manatee with a missing cochlea, with ichor drinking pirates pirates living inside of it? But in the end, it worked. The humor and puzzles were top notch!

    Completely agree, I enjoyed it, but completed it with no problems in 3 hours (took me 4+ on previous chapters)

    This was the best episode for sure
    It was not either long nor short, it wasn't too hard or too easy, it was just perfect.

    I love Murray

    Fantastic chapter all around. Highlight:
    Murray riffing the credits.

    Anyone else love LeChuck's line "this is only the beginning." It can be taken as he is plotting something or that he's turned over a new leaf, but still keeps his motives a mystery.

    I've my money on LeChuck getting infected with the pox via Elaine then resorting back to evil once again and having to be killed by The Brush, thus restoring the staus quo

    Man, I need those voodoo tarot cards. At least in digitial form... :o
  • edited September 2009
    Fun episode, some of the better puzzles I've seen but none of the hilarity or stand out genius of episode 2. If it was shorter that's probably only because there's no jungle exploration this time.

    2s still my favourite but this is still a worthy addition for me.

    What did you guys think?

    There's concept art on the wall of the freakish pirate faces, I've been looking at them for weeks going "WHAT ON EARTH IS THIS?"
    My favorite part, inexplicably, was when Guybrush got each of the faces. He'd practice them right afterward, and somehow seeing him completely expressionless except for a gomer smile had me cracking up.

    Murray's end was great, though I fear he won't appear again in TMI - being locked in that chest does seem to limit his options somewhat. (Murray and the credits had me in stitches, more than the actual game, though that's not to say I didn't enjoy the game.) It was nice to have him fully integrated into the story and puzzles though, even if there wasn't really an explanation as to how he got there.

    De Cava made for an entertaining character, with his not-so sane take on life. Though it looks doubtful we'll see him again either. He couldn't get out the manatee the first time...
