Excellently Redone Sequel
A great retooling that improves on the previous one- one of the complaints about the first Monkey Island Special Edition was the, frankly, rather ugly art style, and this one, while still a bit divisive, is a lot less offputting. Even better, if you use the option to switch to the old-school graphics, you now also have the option of keeping the voice acting on, allowing you to enjoy the best of both worlds- something the previous game couldn't do. As for the game itself, it's a classic just like the original. I personally didn't like the weird emphasis on gross-out humor with the spit and obese governor and such, but it was balanced out by a darker, spookier tone and more varied environments. Unlike the first one, some of the puzzles are finicky and go beyond the typical Lucasarts formula, requiring precise timing or positioning, and your inventory is absolutely massive, with many items being entirely useless. This could be frustrating and a little unfair for people playing it the first time- but the game has a built-in hint system, so it's not too much of a knock against it. The jokes are as funny as ever, and of course, the ending is famous with good reason, so I still recommend this one highly- a great game to begin with, and just about the best remastering that one could ask for. My one complaint is that the updated graphics and music, though mostly accurate to the original, inevitably give everything a slightly softer, lighter vibe that ruins the eerie parts of the game a bit- if you've never played Monkey Island 2 before, I'd highly recommend running it in retro mode first (maybe even without the voices) to get the full feeling of the original experience, before trying out the newly-added content.

Masterpiece in a Buggy&Messy remake
That's it. The Monkey Island saga is probably one of the greatest and most important things happened to human art in the '90s, and they gave us this messy remake which adds lots of bugs, a couple of which will completely stall your game and kill it, rendering it impossible to finish. In 2021 they haven't patched the game yet. That's offensive and amateurish.

Acceptable if you're after millenial
Monkey Island II is my favorite game from when i was kid, so i think i could give some honest opinion here. If you're a fan of old school games, and you played with them back in the days then this game is better avoided as all the others "remakes" ( or "special edition" "enhanced edition" and so on and so on) First I think having the characters speaking breaks most of the original vibe, but then, voices are even quite well chosen, but they act terrible. Second: the cartoonish graphic i think it's not fitting, if you look the original games the design was realistic, and that was the point, it was a parody, so it had to look like a real pirate game. But after all the various abominations that came after (monkey 3, tales from MI and so on) i guess we shouldn't be surprised. Still, in THIS one it's not even so bad. And Third: yeah, as other stated already, the 'brilliant' new inventory/command system is pretty useless. The original one was ok, and there was actually no need for this new version, which most of the cases makes quick things harder instead easier. In the end, if you're a guy of the late generations and play with an old adventure game feels like play with something from the paleolithic, but you still want to try these old classics, then this is surely a good choice. Otherwise, wasted money. On side note, some musics have been remade pretty well, if i must say, too bad many times they got stuck if you change areas too fast so...
