So... did nobody else play the new game?

Is there some sort of embargo on discussing it?

If so, I'll be first to break it: I thought the first episode was good. 
Looking forward to seeing what else they have in store.

I was beginning to wonder if I'd subscribed to the wrong NG! I've played it, 
and thought it was very good. The new look Guybrush is acceptible, I 
suppose. It did remind of days gone by, in a good way.

I'm absolutely ashamed of the lack of response in here, especially being a 
forum dedicated to MI. How many years have we all yearned for MI5! When it 
comes along, all we have is apathy.

An extra large HURG!!

I haven't yet. I just handed in my master thesis for first review and 
have had no time whatsoever for MI (I wasn't even aware MI5 was out/coming).

I *must* try it, though...

I have played the first bit, and I liked it very much.
But I just don't have enough time in a week to get really into it :-(

The same goes for posting in here, I try my best, but busy busy busy.
Grown-up life sucks!

Also, OMG you called Aglami a forum.

I'm the oposite; I've too much time on my hands. That's why I'm already 
waiting for 'episode 2'.

I was already 'grown up' when I first posted here. So, for me, nothing's 
changed.

> Also, OMG you called Aglami a forum.

Humble apologies! Has inflation made it a 'fiveum'?

I tried the new game, well, the demo that is, and I can't really say 
it was a good experience since I only get a frame rate of about 2 
frames per second. People tell me that in the settings I can change 
the resolution and quality or something, but I don't see any of that. 
All of the menu is black anyway. When I start the game, I see 
something blue and then suddenly something black in front of it. 
What the hell is that? Batman?? I gave up.

So yes, clearly the system requirements for the new game are totally 
ridiculous. Especially because in the screenshots it doesn't really 
look better than CoMI if you ask me. The remake is next. That should 
be playable on my laptop since it is only a 2D game.

The alcohol stuff happened wednesday. The women thing is a continuing 
business which takes quite a lot of time.

Just don't come in here one day to announce you want to spawn babies. 
We utterly hate babies in here. We want to eat them.

Selfish is at least better than shellfish.

Also babies don't last very long. They are very small, you know. Also 
they have to be kept very fresh.
