Sadly, "The Internet" happened when the team revealed the art style---Rex Crowle's distinctively _not_ pixel art. A lot of fans were upset and started talking shit on social media platforms, eventually causing Gilbert to take down his personal development blog. A very sad state of affairs indeed. I hope with all my heart that it didn't decrease the chances of Guybrush returning after this excellent adventure. As for Crowle's puppet art style, it grows on you and is very fitting for the story. I have to admit I don't like the close-up face renderings, altough the animation and background scenery is utterly beautiful. It doesn't get in the way of the game and is a lot less off-putting than the ugly art of [The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition](/games/pc/the-secret-of-monkey-island)---why didn't that get a backlash?
Before you jump into the game, there's one thing you need to know: _Return To Monkey Island_ is a love letter to the original. It doesn't say "Return To" in the title for nothing. You'll revisit plenty of previous locations, talk to old acquaintances, and remember an awful lot of fond memories. There's a scrapbook to flip through with memories in case you didn't play any Monkey game. There's even a museum in the game that displays iconic objects of _The Secret_ and [LeChuck's Revenge](/games/pc/lechucks-revenge)---if that doesn't screw nostalgia, I don't know what does. You will miss out on a lot of jokes and throwback moments, so I highly recommend everyone to first play Monkey Island 1 and 2.
