Overall it lacks atmosphere.while MI3 was 2d the art of great and it had atmosphere Its hard to explain but even the old style pixel art feels more 'real' and 'warmer' than the steil cold 3D.not to mention the charachters just arent as expressive, another important thing. I feel one of the biggest problems is with the graphics, not that they are 3d but because at the time they really didn't have the rescources to make the graphics feel 'alive' a game like this actually relies alot on its graphics/world as there is no fast paced action to make up for it and you spewed alot of time examining the environment. Monkey island 3 (curse of monkey island) in my opinion is the bestĮscape though.I liked it at the time when I was a kid but even then I knew it wasn t quite the same as MI3 It might have been better as a little joke put in there rather than basing most of the game around it. I don't fault them for trying out the idea of (MILD SPOILERS ? FOR ANYONE WHO HASN'T PLAYED THE GAME) pirate culture being monopolised for tourists, it was a good idea! But it did completely change the atmosphere of the game to something bright and colourful that I guess most MI fans weren't into. Guybrush looks like he's fifteen again and everything is just a bit too round and bright, although that might mostly be because of.ģ.

It was the first 3D one so of course it was going to be a bit different but they did it better in the (also 3D) Tales of Monkey Island. The design was a little twee compared to the older games. I just want Guybrush to interact with that vending machine, why does he keep facing the other way? AAAAARGH! etc.Ģ.

Being the only MI game where you can't just point 'n' click, it feels like you're handicapped unnecessarily. I guess they decided that because it was 3D they'd make people move around like in a first/third person adventure game, but I like Monkey Island for the puzzles, not for fiddly controls. I don't know if you've played any of the older ones so maybe it's just that it's a disappointment in comparison with them. Monkey Island is my favourite game franchise (that probably makes me really wimpy by gamer standards but meh), so it's not that I didn't like EfMI, but it was (in my own humble opinion) by far the worst out of the five MI games.
