Ron Gilbert, creator of piratical point and click adventure series Monkey Island, has made the decision to stop talking about the upcoming release of Return to Monkey Island, following unwarrented abuse from so-called fans. In addition to this, he has closed all comments on his blog.
"I'm shutting down comments. People are just being mean and I'm having to delete personal attack comments," Gilbert wrote.He went on to defend the upcoming release of Return to Monkey Island, Gilbert's first return to the series since 1991's LeChuck's Revenge. "It's an amazing game and everyone on the team is very proud of it. Play it or don't play it but don't ruin it for everyone else," he said."I won't be posting anymore about the game. The joy of sharing has been driven from me.""Bang up job, everybody," Armato tweeted, clearly sickened at the way things have turned out.
"I've seen a lot of passionate but polite/polite-adjacent discussion going on, but the comments on Ron's blog were a total shitshow."
