How much would two changes -LeChuck would not get resurrected and Big Whoop would be ordinary treasure- really change gameplay of LeChuck’s Revenge? As far as i can see, only gameplay sequences missing from game would be visiting LeChuck’s fortress and final confrontation between Guybrush and LeChuck. (Actually, lot of gameplay of SOMI would be still here, if Elaine was never kidnapped and one of three trials would be finding treasure on Monkey Island instead finding treasure of Melee Island.)

It would be a better game, no doubt about it.

I’m not a big fan of returning supporting characters, even less returning antagonists.
Is it really impossible to come up with a plot that is not about defeating LeChuck?

At least, reverse the whole concept then.
Have the player play as LeChuck, and for all practical purposes, Guybrush becomes the antagonist.

Of course, if we give any thought to the controversial ending of the game, which was supposedly intended to be the end of the whole game series, leaving out LeChuck would be a big problem there.
