Curse of Monkey Island - No Commentary Playthrough (Improved)

My bizarrely most requested video: A redo of CoMI where I look at the "Papapishu!" sign.
I also made some other improvements, such as more dialog to make the story flow better and accessing more easter eggs. Enjoy!

[@mhammer5759]

When Guybrush was tar and feathered you can visit other parts of the island and some of the characters have reactions to thinking he is el pollo diablo lol

[@Blokewood3]

In the Swamp... Murray: El Pollo Diablo! At last, one of my demonic brethren come to set me free! Guybrush: Oh brother. Murray: Come, release me, that I might roam free alongside you as we terrorize this island together! Wait...don't leave! In the Barbery Coast... Haggis: It's El Pollo Diablo... Van Helgen: The demon chicken! Haggis: We don't serve your kind! Bill: Beat it! Van Helgen: Get me the scissors! Haggis: Eviscerate him! Bill: He'll regret ever setting claws in this place! Van Helgen: I wan the neck! In the theatre... Slappy Cromwell: IT'S EL POLLO DIABLO! KILL HIM! Guybrush: Uh oh! At the lemonade stand... Kenny: I'm sorry, I can't take you seriously while you're dressed like that. Hee hee hee hee!

2 years later I’m still rewatching these playthroughs

[@fish4198]

For some reason, blood island feels really comfy. I don't know what it is about that part of the game, but I really love it.

[@salexa171]

Stupid how beautiful this game is. If it was made today no-one would bat and eyelid and it came out nearly 25 years ago.

[@rovhalt6650]

That skin peel off map is the worst thing ever. Makes my whole body shiver

1:09:04 - And history is being made!! 🤣🤣 The greatest funny pirate song any scurvy sea dog can sing!! ☠️☠️☠️☠️

[@MarcKloos]

2:13:50 _Flooring inspector_ is a throwback to the first scene of the first game, when Guybrush says he wants to be a pirate and the other guy says he looks like a ... flooring inspector!

[@robmcraf2765]

I started laughing out loud during the Captain Kirk impersonation dialogue when he is in the pot attempting to confuse Fossey. Too good.

🎶A pirate I was meant to be trim the sails and roam the sea 🎶

[@MarcKloos]

1:54:30 the death scene and subsequent "I didn't think you couldn't die in LucasArts adventure games" and the points scored (like Sierra Games used to show) is too funny!

[@fakenamegame]

Just discovered your channel. I have been binging all the MI games before bed.

[@THESCUMMBAR]

Glad you're enjoying it. :)

[@manlemon8511]

Played this growing up and fell in love with it ever since. This brought back found memory's and I learned a thing or two like the Papapishu bit never new the youch changed once u read that.

[@raxelleon8189]

"You can count on me, Wally. Just as soon as I defeat LeChuck, save Elaine, set all the monkeys free, and ride the Madley Rotating Buccaneer, I'll come back and release you." I think we all know what it's like to rely on someone who tends to make it clear that we're not a high priority to them.

[@proverbialloaf]

Wally’s one of my favorite characters in the series. I was so thrilled to see him again in Return! Glad he kept managing to get out of perilous cliffhangers, somehow.

God I think I’ve played and watched this game over 40 times now hahaha Love the Curse of Monkey’s Island! I always find something I’ve missed each time I go through it. My only wish is that they remade the fourth installation in the same style as this. It’s hard to sit through and not to mention play Escape since the controls are so wonky... :(

[@leonardocucchiara4782]

Part 4 was a major disappointment. I never finished it because of the darn controls. They should remaster it into point&click

[@boscosworld]

I don't think we will see a remaster or further titles, Disney who own Lucas Arts, closed it gaming division, pulled a load of apps from Apple and Google, I'm surprised they are still available on Steam etc. Ron G asked Disney a few times to sell him the rights, but they have never replied.

[@neocolors]

Cool! Now do a playthrough where you explore the island before visting the voodoo lady! Just kidding, thanks! I’ll watch it!

[@THESCUMMBAR]

@@neocolors Ha! Would not be surprised if somebody asked! It's a bit of a balance really trying to get everything in without letting it drag on for hours and hours...

[@neocolors]

THE SCUMM BAR :-) There‘s even a playthrough twice as long and I‘m still not sure if it covers all the dialogues in the game! I like the idea that there‘s still something new to discover after all those years.

[@SRussellN]

I've got the time. :D

[@Boudie96]

These games are so addicting, I always come back wanting to play through monkey island 1-3

[@cgerman]

The only problen with this game is that the first and last act are very short (especially the last with like 2 puzzles). Apart from that this is a perfect game and the comedy is top level

[@proverbialloaf]

Completely agree. It was over way too quick! My only gripe. 😊

[@tyranitararmaldo]

If you don't save the choking pirate immediately, he starts turning funny colours. In fact I think I left him for half an hour once...turned a funny shade of purple.

[@THESCUMMBAR]

So many great Monkey 3 easter eggs. I should compile them all in a video sometime.

[@Bloodshade]

Guess who’s still at it, bro. These games are comforting background noise to me, I don’t know why

[@Brian2986]

"Blast be yer hair, woman! Can't you see that this salty old sea-corpse pines for your every gentle caress?" I don't think I'll ever hear another line that will even get close to this one.

[@proverbialloaf]

His delivery makes it so spectacular. Rest in peace to a legendary pirate adversary. ❤️‍🩹

[@carlesmr1835]

Ah, the memories! I will get the game on Steam and play it once more!

[@macaroll]

Felt like this was such a long game. Never thought the whole game would only be three hours long. Still, this was worth a replay! I see you also played Loom! Great taste! Edit: I also played this in Mega-Monkey mode. The sadistic puzzles were fun!

[@EOBgraphics]

What a beautiful game...

[@BilisiFunfun]

Best Pirate Game (All Years)

[@OpenDoorEnglish]

Not as quirky or iconic as the first two but still a quality game. As others have said the ending was a bit abrupt but all in all it was a great adventure. I miss Monkey Island.

[@Dominian1]

Best Monkey Island game. I never liked Monkey Island past Meleé island and Monkey Island 2 is great, but the story is complete garbage and I absolutely hate the ending. Monkey Island 3 is perfection. It retcons the dumb ME2 ending, innovates a completely new art style for the world and has the best soundtrack, brings back sword fights in a spectacular manner and is just all around iconic.

[@Fershizzal]

1:15:30 I love that little swindler

[@mngentry]

Voiced by Gary Coleman.

[@Viperspider1]

2:05:16 This has got to be one of my favourite jokes in the game.

Great game but the ending is so abrupt.

Heh, good spot. I normally play in the evening, so 10 PM.

Thanks for the recommendation. I will check it out. :)

Is it possible to save the game progress to play later?

[@Bloodshade]

THE SCUMM BAR this might sound odd but I’ve easily spent 200+ hours watching your videos in the background this past year. I’ve got your Monkey Island videos on a playlist I keep in the background while I’m at work or trying to sleep lol. Thanks for all of the effort you put into this stuff, seriously.

[@Bloodshade]

I’m still doing it lol. I love this series, it a up there with Sam & Max, Sly Cooper, etc with what I like to watch in the background.

And he lies but it's so good

[@tenchi586]

Many fans say Monkey Island 2 is the best of the series. I disagree. Curse is by far the best.

[@cgerman]

Le Chucks revenge has a terrible ending. You are left with a sense of wtf am I playing this for? What's up?

[@SolBdaguy90]

2:46:00 AHAHAHAHAHAHA I didnt remember that scene XD

In order to do this scene, you need to fall down once and not use the umbrella.

Playing this at 1.25x speed makes all the dialog seem more natural. Not necessarily better, but more natural.

You might want to try World of Longplay's version of this playthrough. I don't tend to exhaust dialogues unless it's plot-related.
