As someone who never knew monkey island existed, I was skeptical of this crossover. Therefore I decided If I was gonna enjoy this I would need to get familiar with monkey island. Currently playing monkey island special edition and I honestly love the humor. I hope it translates well into sea of thieves.
I don't understand how someone can be scepticle of a crossover after admitting you know nothing of the game, doesn't make sense.. You have no knowledge to base your scepticism on..?
@@dar4061 because it was exactly that, something unknown, felt they were running out of ideas, felt like it wasn't gonna have the factor of familiarity that pirates of the caribbean had that made it so enjoyable
I'm so excited for this, Monkey Island was such a huge part of my childhood, played so much of them with my brother working out puzzles and excitedly telling each other we think we have the solutions to difficult puzzles. But I REALLY hope it's significantly better than POTC, that was such spectacular ass. The whole story was people appearing, saying 3 words, and disappearing again. That wasn't even a story it was just a rapidly edited fanfic with a $10 budget.
3:59 so "no religious imagery" but voodoo, ocean gods, (davy jones and calypso), literal afterlife, and other dark magic is fine i highly doubt they are gonna remove a church, a lil setpiece thing, for the sake of "not having religious imagery"
The Sea of Thieves is a contained pirate universe that exists outside of historical context. Adding a Christian Church establishes the world as European instead of the distilled fictional pirate land it currently is. Rare also isn't trying to convert anyone or create a place of worship so if there's not a story reason it 110% needs to exist, it makes sense to avoid real-world religion. The in-world magic may be inspired by voodoo but it is treated in lore and gameplay as any other natural occurence. It's not any more of a miracle than the palm trees. It requires no faith, has no doctrines, and isn't controversial.
@@thugpug4392 but the sea of thieves is located in the caribbean(in the first couple minutes of the game you see a map, which when matching up the names and islands, shows the sea of thieves is actually located around the caribbean, not 100% confirmed official lore, but still) and why would they remove it? it wouldnt even have to be a Christian church, just a setpiece they arent trying to convert anyone, but why wouldnt they just keep it in? it would make sense to keep it in, even in the lore sense, since the island is being taken from the game, and the church is in the game and we already have european styled things in the game(the spanish-themed forts all over) tldr: i dont see why they cant just leave it in, makes sense lore-wise and game wise
I honestly think this is the perfect crossover. The current SOT storyline is very serious, so it's nice to have a sort of comedic break with another beloved pirate IP.
Thanks for the education lesson on Monkey Island! I was going to go into the story blind, but having at least a bit of backstory will hopefully enhance the experience.
I had wanted to play monkey island for a long time and when I saw the sea of thieves crossover trailer I was concerned that it was going to be too goofy, so I played the ultimate talkie edition of the first game. I’m hooked, I’m a huge monkey island fan and absolutely giddy at whatever rare has in store for us
Now we know that the first Talltale keeps place in the Townsquare and the Scummbar. The second keeps place on the whole Melee Island and the third keeps place on Monkey Island itself.
I can’t wait for this. Trying the return to monkey island game right now just to get some feel for the game. (Game pass does not have the originals so I can’t play them)
I know Monkey Island but never really played it and dont know much about the games but I thought the Dialogs were funny. I had to smile here and there and the riddles were interesting enough to keep me playing. So for someone who dont have nostalgic feelings about this its still a good Talltale.
Oh, i would like monkey island after the return to monkey island, as the story isnt finished and leaving the shops like locksmiths and map store not there takes out the puzzle element of finding little things
And maybe,just maybe, we set sail on it and at the end of lords of the sea, calypso says “Remember jack, you made her a promise” and then they left with gold thingy so is the governor the one jack promised to?
I first saw the update and thought "oh this is silly i wonder what will be nitpicked about this" i didnt think i would get this much content. thank you captain falc- gene. Captain Gene Genie? Robin williams Aladin Yes, good.
Cruel irony that your location speculation dropped a day before Rare's "Whistle stop tour" video... time for a part 2 of you just re-acting to the scenery?
I hope we get some nice rewards this time in the tall tale like some ship cannon flairs or something else and not some ugly ass sht like in pirates life with that sunken sorrow ship set that was awful
Honestly Im not feeling this at all. Never played Monkey Island and don't plan too. If I want more tall tales, I want them to continue the SoT story and not some crossover...except Pirates Life 2
I know it's just a small thing, but if its true rare removed the church because they want no religious stuff in the game, that is a bit ridiculous. And im pretty sure why they do this as well, "because that makes the game less inclusive" or whatever 😂

I hope they keep the troll guarding the bridge so we’ll have to give him a Ruby Splashtail.
I'm so excited for Monkey Island, I almost forgot that the capstan isn't centered on the sloop!
It had been so long since someone brought it up that I too almost forgot that the captain isn't centered on a sloop
2:32 that "rubber chicken shop" will be Wally's map shop, as you can tell from the sign hanging over the door
7:52 is truly one of the plot twists of all time.

What an underrated youtuber. I love the Style of the video and it's just always interesting. Deserved way more attention!

I think this kind of crossover is pretty odd for sea of theives but I’m still pretty excited
I mean the world really compliments the sea of thieves art style. I’m very excited
@@BonesYourDaddy Rayman 2 next.
@@AbsolutePixel and then Garfield to seal the deal
Don't forget about the Sonic the Hedgehog crossover, where Eggman, Knuckles and Sonic are all played by Chris Pratt.
@@AbsolutePixel don’t forget the banjo kazooie one
absolut pixel: uploads
everyone: a surprise to be sure but a welcomed one
Great video. And after a 2 year break this new tail has brought me back. What a game! I can't wait.
I PURCHASED THE GAME A WEEK AGO WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THIS CROSSOVER! I lover monkey island!
Man I really dig your style!
This update so nostalgic can't wait for July 20th
Thanks for the education lesson on Monkey Island! I was going to go into the story blind, but having at least a bit of backstory will hopefully enhance the experience.
The first 2 parts will be melee island, the third part will be monkey island... Hell is inside monkey island so dunno why you'd differentiate.

That's the second best trailer analysis I've ever seen
Imagine not knowing monkey island
Now we know that the first Talltale keeps place in the Townsquare and the Scummbar. The second keeps place on the whole Melee Island and the third keeps place on Monkey Island itself.
Three days left. This is going to be very very cool to play!
Man i used to play Curse of the Monkey island with my older brother when i was young, im so excited for this update >w
I can’t wait for this. Trying the return to monkey island game right now just to get some feel for the game. (Game pass does not have the originals so I can’t play them)
Ah, but Steam has them! :D
"These better be trinkets"....
* Laughs in insider *
tbh it would be incredible if all the three tall tales would be on the different islands from the first 3 games
I know Monkey Island but never really played it and dont know much about the games but I thought the Dialogs were funny. I had to smile here and there and the riddles were interesting enough to keep me playing. So for someone who dont have nostalgic feelings about this its still a good Talltale.
Right there with you on the want to play this next update!
i saw monkey island on steam, didn't think they made a crossover. The wording was the same and they way it looked. it was suprising to me.
Damn. It’s great that today the church was confirmed and the shop too
This island will be bringing a lot of roleplayers to sea of thieves
The Tall-tales all take place in the Sea of the Damned through the memories of Guybrush. This was apparently all planned by LeChuck.
Tusen takk for alt1!11!
Fantastic work, I love this video!
i've never actually played monkey island but i am a huge fan of it
I think part three will be in the depths of monkey island like in the first game
I like that you mention they probably don't want religious themes, but are predicting we go to H-E Double Hockey Sticks.
I never saw this! I loved Monkey Iskand Remasters as a kid, this might finally get me in!
If George Lucas makes it into the game, we need a Star Wars crossover with Hondo Ohnaka in lead
What is better than using 10 mins on yet another Pixel Video?.. Nothing, they are always amazing!
Yea this might help a bit, but that other let’s say “thing” is still coming up and a LOT of people are gonna either quit or just resort to cheating
Love the Pirates Life Easter Egg
They did put the church in the game!
The Troll is gonna be the oft spoken of but never seen pirate 'Three Sheets' Neat.
He has some explaining to do.
I just love how quirky the trailer for Monkey Island looks, a much better and bigger step compared to Pirates Life
Oh, i would like monkey island after the return to monkey island, as the story isnt finished and leaving the shops like locksmiths and map store not there takes out the puzzle element of finding little things
Welp, a day later and it looks like the church is coming!
I haven't had time to play this game in a really long time and don't know when I will again. Sure hope it doesn't die by the time I get back 😂
I didn’t even know it was a crossover, I just thought it was called monkey island
I hope we can ask him about Loom - which may well be changed to whatever that new game Rare is working on is.
absolutely beautiful content
this was used in the film theory video. why? idk.
if the black pearl is for sale, is jack involved with monkey island? In like the third one he gonna appear?
And maybe,just maybe, we set sail on it and at the end of lords of the sea, calypso says “Remember jack, you made her a promise” and then they left with gold thingy so is the governor the one jack promised to?
@@T9X84 no it isnt dont think too much lol
Hell yeah love the geenee I'm just glad I escaped him in my rowboat in the forsaken shores
We love u geene
The enhance had me LOLing.
I first saw the update and thought
"oh this is silly i wonder what will be nitpicked about this"
i didnt think i would get this much content.
thank you captain falc- gene.
Captain Gene
Genie?
Robin williams
Aladin
Yes, good.
I named my ship "the sea monkey" a long time ago.
We need a tdm arena on monkey Island
Can't believe they delayed season 10 for this :/
Could the missing church be a nitpick?
You always have something funny to say 😂
True
this game looks so good
kkkkkk 4:00 This man deserves his award kkkk
okay but season 10 when
If you should never pay more than $20 in 1990, adjusted for inflation, that means that anything over $48 is too expensive. Listen to the Threepwood.
Bruh I thought monkey island was made by rare for sea of thieves, I knever knew it was its own game
Love your video ❤
Cruel irony that your location speculation dropped a day before Rare's "Whistle stop tour" video... time for a part 2 of you just re-acting to the scenery?
10/10 content (for absolutepixel... not SoT ❤) LoL
I think part one will be on melee island
Part two will be on melee island
Part three with be on monkey island
lol always a pleasure pixel
I hope the game didn’t stay dead ( I’m sry if u don’t think it is it’s just my opinion) but he game is great and still has so much potential
If they put george lucas in these tall tales im gonna build a full size replica of the galleon in real life
anyone who's worried about the Monkey Island crossover is carbon dating themselves ahahaha.
I hope we get some nice rewards this time in the tall tale like some ship cannon flairs or something else and not some ugly ass sht like in pirates life with that sunken sorrow ship set that was awful
ill come back to sea of thieves once they do an one piece collab

Three days only :D
monki island
are there any monkeys in "Monkey" Island??
Honestly Im not feeling this at all. Never played Monkey Island and don't plan too. If I want more tall tales, I want them to continue the SoT story and not some crossover...except Pirates Life 2
absolutepixel
This cross over got me to install the game.
I honestly do not care for these tall tales at all but i'm chill with them trying
I think part 2 will be a filler in hell
Yeahhh. I don't really care about Monkey Island. And even if I did, a crossover that doesn't really change the game at all is not bringing me back.
I think they should keep the story original and authentic without having to rely on Crossovers though that’s just my opinion
People who don't dig deep enough may think "oh this is a weird crossover", until you realize that people at Rare designed both SoT and Monkey Island
Bro I have never heard of monkey island before and the trailer was cringe. The only reason people like this is because of the nostalgia.
You're 100% correct, it's up to Rare to convince the non-nostalic people to play it.
You may want to actually have a look at the game before you deride it as nostalgia bait.
@@lordtoraxeus7663 Judging from the trailer itself, it is cringe. I don't expect it not to be once it's out.
I know it's just a small thing, but if its true rare removed the church because they want no religious stuff in the game, that is a bit ridiculous. And im pretty sure why they do this as well, "because that makes the game less inclusive" or whatever 😂
Momk
Ok
Bibbity booppity there a chuch
banana
i don't know why people say the game is dead LOL
Yooo
