What the fuck youtube, I didn't see any scarfulhu videos in my feed or recommendation for months and I just check out your channel manually only to find 7 videos I've not watch since the first monkey island video. Well I guess it's time to binge some Scarfulhu videos.
Damn, berserk nod and jojoke in the same episode… there’s a good reason you’re one of my favorite channels
Stan's theme in this game is essentially a remix of the old folk song, "Go Tell Aunt Rhodey"
Another Scarfhulu video on Monkey Island? Big Whoop…..
……is the mcguffin in this game.
42:00 if I recall right, or wrong, on some tv trailer or magazine, they showed the monkey being used as such monkey wrench, I can't tell if was on purpose as a hint or else.
I love hearing about stuff like the talkie editions and the unused scenes with Largo and Le Chuck. Here I thought I’d exhausted everything about this series, but now I have more ways to enjoy it. I’d love to hear more tid bits like those if you have any more in time for future videos (seriously, I used to get the urge to replay Monkey 1 every now and again, and give up when I remembered how badly I disliked the new art/UI but loved the VA, but since your video in Money 1 I’ve replayed the talkie edition a ton, thanks man!)
Just in time for the new year , some more monkey island shenanigans
Aw yeah a video for working while rewatching. Thanks so much!
If this 🤘 is 1, what is this ✋ ?
Really nailing someone in a coffin that's the worst thing done in an adventure game guess you have never played those Japanese ones have you😱
I wonder if Guybrush wearing a dress was a sort of way to address the bra thing; like when I first played the game I kind interpreted that as Largo having a weight problem so he needed to wear a bra not so much a 'Lumberjack who is okay' thing, I didn't even think of it like that until you pointed it out.
FINALLY!
Part 2
I personally like this game over the 1 in the series ( I also enjoy MI3 more than 1 )… They are all 3 amazing games and i even enjoy the 4 in the series. The darker tone and improved graphics just makes this more interesting for me.
Can't go wrong starting 2021 with that theme song 😍
YES YES YES HAPPY NEW YEAR
But, was it to emasculate Largo or was it because Largo was, until the talkie version, a woman. Because there's no other evidence that he's a cross dresser. I think it's funnier that way too. Especially if you consider the idea that the toupee is a merkin and the lice are crabs– he was a bit of a dickhead.
Probably my most-replayed point-n-click game ever. It really is that good. No better way to end the year off than to watch you cover it, man!
The reason Guybrush hesitates to open the wrong coffin is the undead. Not morals
Lets the be fair here. Its a valid concern in these games
Don't throw up such a fuss about the game being not very pc, or Guybrush being a terrible person. That was life in the early 90s. No one gave a shit about the crippled, the transvestite or other people in general. That's why we have the shitty world we have now. This game is a time capsule and it must be analized as such.
I want to watch this so bad but I havent played through monkey island 2 yet
WHAT A FUCKING CLASSIC
Cant wait for monkey island 3. First adventure game I completed, one of my favourite games ever
What chair is that you are sitting on?
I was expecting a Jojo Mojo joke there instead buddy
I played the hell out of this game when I was young, and was disappointed years latter when I went to catch up on subsequent games and found they had just ignored the ending of 2
Oh hey, about the manatee thing…if nobody’s beaten me to it! Manatees were occasionally mistaken for mermaids, apparently. Those visions of loveliness and longing on the high seas, with no women to bed for months…
You can draw your own conclusions about why happiness is a warm manatee. Slipped that one RIGHT under the radar.
Worth it for the Jojo meme alone.
I mean the rest was excellent too but still.
These videos are really nice for background listening. I’ve been putting on the first one for bedtime listening for about a week.
That wood chuck performance, you could probably win a rap battle with that. I'm being serious because of how perfect your execution is.
Good video, as always! It's nice listening to people talk about stuff they love.
I posted this comment the moment it turned 2021.
I appreciate the idea of what this game is trying to convey but there needed to be way more of a set up into the twist and the ending. I can assume Guybrush was just at that rebellious stage of his life where being a pirate was way more fun than being a child even though the second game shows the more somber and grittier parts of that occupation, but what was going on in his life that made pretending to be an orphan more preferable. Is his relationship with his parents strained in any way? Are his parents fine but his brother is so awful that having no family is better? I feel like the twist was broadcast well enough to work so that even players who were blindsided could look back and connect the dots, but they could've done so much more with it you feel?
I still don't know how to feel about the ending of Lechuck's Revenge. On one hand, it's interesting and has some unsettling implications, but retconning it did lead to Curse and Escape.
1:08:01 oh god, Scarfulhu what have you done? You butchered your boy!
1:37:50 Oh no… Pathologic keeps popping up in places I never expected it. Probably a sign I should just play it already
I absolutely LOVE this game, but a 2 hour review? No thank you. Nothing justifies that long a video.
I'm 37, I remember calling the Lucasarts hint line as a kid for this game. It wasn't so much an operator, but a series of button pushes to denote chapter and progress. Needless to say it cost an arm and a leg
Holy hecc that Jojoke is supreme. 9,999,999,999/10.
@41:00
Ah, yes, so you, too, are annoyed by Bigger 'Brush theory?
The fucking Guts theme got me dude.
I played Monkey Island 1 & 2 for the first time this year! I'm gonna try to play 3 before your video on the topic comes out, hehe.
Also I appreciate your intersectional feminism. <3
Your next line is "you fight like a dairy farmer" isn't it?!
Best New Year gift ever! Thank you, Scarf.
16:42
Best thing I've seen as soon as the new year started
You can't stop now! You have an unbreakable 5-game contract!
Next up the REAL best installment in the series.
Also, melancholy count: 3
