I remember growing up with adventure games. Monkey Island, Sam & Max..and the LSL series. I didn’t get all the adult jokes until I got to LSL7. But I did have a lot of fun. The interactions between Larry and the narrator, and Al Lowe’s very quirky sense of humor really made this series unique. I’m gonna give these games a fair shot, I just got them very cheap on a Nintendo Store sale. But my expectation is that these games are tribute games from German superfans. Wish me luck! XD
Al Lowe was the heart of the game , reloaded was the best new one but they did cheat him over. Wish they would make up with him as i am sure he would come back. I hope we get the new space quest but its been forever and they keep saying it coming out but it never does , like they said it would be out 2 months ago.
I LOVE the fact that your main critique of this game is that it lacks HARD CORE pornography :) of course i understand what your sentiment actually conveyed, this being the fact that the whole game BETRAYED what was (imho) the very CORE of the original LSL games. Its true, the retro games didnt go OVER THE TOP when it came to nudity, but they certainly pushed the envelope on SPICY JOKES and hinted MASSIVELY toward a more seedy and thus FUNNY arena in which larry could be played. This game plays like it was created by the character in the STEVE BUSCEMI "FELLOW KIDS" meme. This game LITERALLY used the same joke in about 90% of the game, taking a well known BRAND NAME and renaming it to something mildly amusing and usually with a hinted sexual overtone, the sort you laughed about when u were 10.. I too wanted to love this game.. :( btw.. if u played this back in the day as i did.. you either have a BANGING filter on that camera.. or u have aged incredibly well.. SUBBED!! erm.. i didnt sub because of my last comment btw :) i subbed because ur review was entertaining, funny and incredibly accurate! I LIKE larry.. but im not lIKE him.. and now i sound even creepier.. im shutting up now.. great review.
😂😂 I agree with everything you say. Honestly the jokes were so bad and not spicy in the least in this! Thank you! I will be uploading content more on my gaming channel Pebbles and Peach Plays from now on! 😊 took a wee break for a while there but back at it now & will be playing a lot more than just Animal Crossing!
@@PebblesPeach Im really glad to hear that.. i did check out ur other content and was quite sad to see that ur gaming side was a little lacking :( I absolutely HATE to see talent go to waste.. and ur refreshingly NON snowflakey take on games is like a breath of fresh air in these somewhat nightmare woven times.. I think u would do incredibly well if u chose such a path.. not to mention, ive never met an Irish women that didnt scare me at least just a little bit.. so u can always threaten people to sub :) looking forward to ur new content.. stay safe! ;p
If you don't have a decent PC, you should! It's outstanding. This girl's opinion is just that, and I disagree with her almost 100% on this. I'd wait for a sale, however, because I only paid $19 for it on PC, so why can't you!?
I had wondered why there was not more buzz around this, shame it seems to be so disappointing as a game and visually. The developers not utterlizing the opportunity presented by the adult rating is bizarre, makes me wonder if this is like what happened with the animated adaptation of The Killing Joke where they desperately tried to get a lower rating so toned down the violence and sex as much as possible but still got slapped with an N-17 rating anyway. I will say while your review covers certain key areas that are very important to assessing its quality, the gameplay, graphics, story etc what you did not touch on at all was the quality of the voice acting, comedy and the quality of Larry’s cringe exchanges with the various characters. Obviously comedy can be very subjective but there is still a language to it in terms of set up and pay off and the creative use of puns. I don’t think the majority of Larry fans look to the games for a Monkey Island or Sam and Max quality game in terms of puzzle solving but will give it a pass as long as it makes them laugh, so I do think you should have addressed that. I see you have a gaming channel even if you’ve been busy recently so not made much content, any chance of a review of the more recent Larry game to see if they delivered a better game worthy of the franchise?
Do you like the ps2 ones? I wish we had got make your self in the game where you could be male female and use a picture of your self in the game , It was to be LSL8 but sierra died.
Pirated it last year, which I do to try games when I'm in doubt if I should buy or not. I should have checked some videos first, that would saved me the trouble to do even that. Insta-delete. Love the original games, have them all on GOG and big box versions for Larry 6 and 7 (my absolute favorite). I'll be back for another Larry when Al Lowe returns. Great content, thanks!
LOVE all the Sierra games! The LSL games were amazing, Torins Passage, and I'm still waiting on GOG to make Stay Tooned lol, I dont think that one is Sierra though... So is this game worth the buy?
Actual porn was never why people played Leisure Suit but given the literal Hell he goes through to try and make it, having no payoff to it all with even a tiny bit of smut feels … tasteful. Tasteful is a word that should never, ever be in the same sentence as Leisure Suit Larry. I’m half through since I got it for seven bucks and so far it’s… very easy and not very funny. It’s written like a right wing newspaper comic parodying the younger generation. I can’t think of a single person it’s meant to appeal to. They just forgot their target audience wholesale. Great review, summed up my issues perfectly.
With Al Lowe having nothing to do with this its not going to feel the same as the original series. However, Assemble Entertainment bringing Jan Rabson back as Larry and the idea of Larry trying to live in today's world was enough for a sale. I agree 14 for this game is about right because it felt short. Butts a plenty, breasts are there but not in particular moments.
Swedish Game Nerd thank you so much 😊 still plan on keeping up the ‘Quickie Reviews’ while I’m travelling! So there will be more on the way! Thanks again 😊
@@neonsvampen1 För 60 kronor kan det nog ändå vara värt det. Man får ju knappt ens en hamburgare på McDonald's för det priset nu för tiden. Spelade du igenom hela spelet eller tröttnade du innan?
Yeah I bought this for six bucks on switch the other day and I was like “where are the boobs!?” That’s the huge motivator to solve the puzzles! Lame! I’ll probably delete.
Let's face it, if this game didn't have the Larry franchise name attached to it, nobody would care and it wouldn't get any good reviews. These guys took the name of an old classic to slap it on a D+ game to get any possible sales. I wish people would remember to judge games minus the nostalgia in that case. Nostalgia is good, but it also allows for crappy games to get sequels and ruin the original series. Larry doesn't need to be dug out of the grave unless his creator chooses to do so :)
I miss Leisure suit Larry Magna Cum load, trying to download it now for windows but I thinks its not going to run for my computer sh1t last time I had it was windows xp or vista I think long time ago lol
Aww you butchered the game really :/ I really liked the story and seemed like it had some real funny jokes. Still all to their own i finished it and really loved it :)
I also was disappointed with the lack of nude girls in this game.
I used to LOVE playing leisure suit Larry.. used to play on real floppy discs.. all that typing

Omg I looooved monkey island! Was such a great game!
@@PebblesPeach I spent an entire week in summertime playing that insult game of Monkey Island 3 😆
On sale for £7 on eshop but it's my child's switch not sure whether to buy this although I can put on parent controls
Didn’t even know this game existed.
I'm going to admit that I assumed you didn't like it because you didn't know about the series history. Damn was I pleasantly surprised. Great review.
Thank you! 😊

Thank you for the heads up! I would have totally wasted money on this due to nostalgia for the original Larry games.
It was just released on Xbox... Almost bought it. Thx for the review!
Aw no problems! Thank you for watching! 💙

I've always wanted a direct sequel to Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude on the PS2. I loved that game, even though it was brutally insulted by some.
I remember playing that and I really enjoyed it too! 😂 I second this motion!
The original sierra games were brilliant
Is your Let's Play channel still up? I can't find it.
Do you like the ps2 ones? I wish we had got make your self in the game where you could be male female and use a picture of your self in the game , It was to be LSL8 but sierra died.

Thank you so much!! ☺️
I just got this Game Yesterday
I like that u told me what i wanted to know. Theres no nudity. Saved me 40 bucks :)
Hahaha, just doing my bit for the community 😆👍🏻

I've noticed that with every game that's sexually oriented.
@@jaym5118 🙂 Humble has a sexy Sakura Bundle
Lol it sounds good to me i think its funny i want to get it on a sale
Steven Shelby on sale is definitely a good shout! I probably wouldn’t of been so salty if I’d paid like less than £10!
It's on sale in the playstation store for $20
@@arih8491 I got it on switch
As of 03/20/2021 its on sale on the eshop $7.99
But after seeing the review i am wondering if that is even a good price to buy it for.
Got it for 3 euro on eshop sale definitely worth it lol

Assemble Entertainment does not learn from its mistakes, ruined the first game and now the second
Thankyou I'm gratfull, I nearly bought this game as I loved the old games, but this what a load of rubbish, stay blessed
Ur too young to understand this game.

Aah.. It makes you feel unattractive. Got it. Looks like good old silly fun to me.
