Stan sucks, art sucks, tone is off... consumers will love it, some fans wont.
Title

Edit: Devs, please provide a second art style option (bit like the remasters), where the second option is a modern pixel-art style.

That about summarizes the tweenager edge-lord baseless complaints -- good job.

It's nice to know my cynical 30 year old brain has some youth left in it, thanks.

30? Still a virtual babe.

It's a bummer they got the wrong Stan voice actor. The guy from MI3 was so much better than the guy from Tales.

I'm a babe? And here's me thinking no-one would pay for my nudes.

Hey baby

His deep voice nailed "slimey car salesman", I agree.

As in wee-babe. Unless you owned a game on floppy disks you are estopped from complaining about Ron Gilbert's choices.

Yes, I did as it happens (in the loft somewhere). Grew up on classic adventures games :)

You were born two years after Secret of Monkey Island came out. Hand-me-downs don't count. It's like cool kids trying to appropriate nerd culture.

Playing Secret of Monkey Island in the 90s, on a DOS -> Windows 95 machine as a child, isn't a hand-me-down. It's called "the family computer", where my parents shared one of their hobbies with me.

I remember the PC had a Voodoo Banshee added to it eventually, so we could play slightly more demanding games.

If there was a hand-me-down I got from my parents, it was their Atari ST. They used to have a video games store.

"Ooh look at me with my voodoo banshee". I bet you had more than 4mb of ram and a soundcard too didn't you? :D

Definitely had a sound card, don't remember if it was a soundblaster or if the soundblaster config in dos gui game setup menus was merely the compatible option.

No idea on the RAM/CPU/Motherboard, the only reason I remember the Voodoo Banshee was the box with the hand on it xD

I'm a fan and think it's the best looking since the second.

Nothing wrong with that. The idea of these discussion forums is for the team to assess customer sentiment from feedback.

I'm giving my opinions, you're giving yours, and the company can make decisions based on that.
