Then the actual story, I've never been much into comedy (unless it's dry like in "The Longest Journey"), and so it was in this game. I guess the idea of the story is cool, but it's just not for me. Maybe I'll try some more of it.
I suspect it won't be my thing either. I thought Secret of Monkey Island was overrated... I can see how it would be pretty awesome for its time, but it's nowhere near one of the best ever. Also, I'm with you, in that I'd rather play a realistic, dry, or sarcastic game than a goofy or cartoony game.
