My theory for chap. 5...
Okay, so after finishing chapter 4, I couldn't shake the feeling that we're going to do some sort of "Land of the Dead" thing at the start of Chap. 5. In fact, they could even do a fun Manny cameo if they get the rights from LucasArts. Anyway, I've counted five people who have apparently died so far in Tales. One is Guybrush, another is DeSinge. The other three are Noogie, Nipperkin and Morgan. Now, what if Guybrush has to put together a crew to get out of the "Land of the Dead." I realize this isn't really an original idea (someone may have even posted it here already), but MI is all about doing unoriginal things in creative new ways. What do you guys think? Am I completely out of it? Is it possible? Probable, even?
I suppose we'll have to wait to find out, but it seemed like a good setup to me...
Now what would be really funny is if we woke up on a slab in a mortuary and Mor...I mean, Murray came and greeted us...

I like your idea--I like the whole general "crew of deadfolk" thing.
I agree with the undead thing. I'm not sure they'd go back to standard-formula-1 quite that badly in re: getting a crew together, but i'm sure there'll be plenty of people who don't particularly like Guybrush.
On a partly separate note: I hated Ozzie Mandrill's character. Someone said maybe he'll be around. I hope there's a separate pirate-underworld to property-tycoon-underworld so we don't see him!
Anyway, about your theory.

Sorry if I'm getting on anyone's nerves posting those links in half the threads on here (okay, only four so far), but a lot of people seem to be missing the threads I post them in.
Edit: Haha, the spoiler tag doesn't turn blue links to white text.
Gah.
Elaine and Guybrush power couple.
There goes all hopes of a Morgan relationship.
Still, land of the dead sounds awesome.
Hmm, a... Bermuda Triangle? : )
Bugeye said that Noogie "went to a nice farm upstate" - a strong metaphor to suggest that they killed him.
Never mind, I'm sure there are LOADS of people who are as curious as hell to find out what is to come in the final episode, and posting these links in as many places as possible is the best way to go about quenching their thirst for info on RotPG.
I don't remember that either. I don't remember DeCava's crew being separated at any point. Guess I can add that to my list of things I don't remember to watch for when I play again, along with "A Pirate I Was Meant to Be" in DeCava's hut and Elaine's comment about leaving her for three years.
Okay, thanks, I won't give it another thought.
Land of the DEAD and siprtaul insadult sword fightinasg, it snuouds rlleay good and interstnig.
Can't wait to see it.
So what the magazine says is:
Well that does sound awful drastic, eh? Maybe there won't be a happy ending anymore, but then again it opens more possibilities.
Btw,
It wasn't taken, it was sunk. You can still click on its space and see that someone sabotaged it. Guybrush's guess is that it was the doing of poxed pirates.
Although - maybe we'll see Santino and... Murray? That would be fantastic. I, for one, am hoping for at least one "braaaaains" joke.
As long as this "Land of the Undead" doesn't look like the place a certain Captain J. S. went to in the beginning of the third part of a certain film trilogy, this is gonna be interesting!
I think the "cycle" might be the fact that we've killed LeChuck about... oh, five, six times now? Maybe he'll finally just die.
If that's the case, I hope it doesn't just copy harry potter with some horcrux-type quest.
I kinda agree. I mean, I was very much team Morgan after chapter 3 and through most of 4. But then there was that ending and Elaine threw out that "from Melee to Monkey and all the islands in between, my love." line and BAM I was team Elaine again. Though I'd really like to see Morgan have a happy ending of sorts. I'm not sure how they'd do it. I mean, she can't just fall in love with some other pirate in one chapter. It'd be really random and out of nowhere. her love for Guybrush was built up for so long.
I don't know. I just really want chapter 5! I'm so excited!
And newly resurrected Morgan, meanwhile, sails away to become Morgan LeFlay, Mighty Piratetm.
The End(?)
This.
I don't know what to do, because I really want to see Guybrush with Morgan, but breaking up him and Elaine just doesn't seem right (or likely.) It kind of stinks, because either way there's going to be an aspect of the ending that'll leave me unsatisfied.
Hopefully Chapter 5 will prove me undoubtedly wrong!
I agree, and yes, it had occurred to me, briefly.
DEFINETLY.
I like how LeChuck will finally DO SOMETHING.
It's easy. Have her hook up with Noogie, who has built up a considerable amount of muscles due to forced swimming courses during which he lost his nerdy touch.
Or, perhaps a Doctor Who season four finale thing, where the hand grows a new Guybrush.
Yeah we all know that all it took was LeChuck's Beard to bring him back to the living in "undead Zombie" form
Yeah, We killed LeChuck and he keeps coming back through the same mechanism. Maybe Guybrush uses it and destroys it in the same process, this would mean next time LeChuck is defeated it is for good. but, Be not dismayed! Morgan LeFay is Primed and Ready to take over LeChuck's role as a Zombie Pirate Via "Ju JEs Sui" or whatever it was the doctor had. Then She can Chase Guybrush around trying to marry him.
Zombie Privateer!
French:
Jus de vie.
English translation:
Juice of life.
Hey, thanks for the translation. All i know is Au Jus Sandwiches, lol
No prob. It's hard to live in Canada without picking up some French. Might as well put it to good use.
Also, it's an obvious allusion to "Eau de Vie" or "Water of Life," (Latin "Aqua Vitae") which has a ton of connections to various myths and legends, like the Fountain of Youth, the Sangreal, and the Philosopher Stone.
