alt Hacker NewsEven though Monkey Island now has a real (i.e. canonical) ending, it sucks. I prefer the original continuation of MI3 to the 25-years-late official, canonical sequel

It's not just the ending, but the flat humor, the lazy puzzles (like clicking multiple times on multiple objects to open the porthole) and the meagre number of interactions on each of the islands after the first one..
It's like his heart just wasn't in it anymore
It felt like a "ehh let's get this over with" at best
or a medium-effort nostalgia-pandering money grab at worst.
I pretty much saw the ending an effort to put the story to end and move on after all the years of speculation.
