Monkey Island™ 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge™

Infuriating game-breaking late-game bug

Though I do agree with the more positive that overall the game is well-made, and often witty and enjoyable, it is somewhat disheartening to be 77% of the way through the game, and then encounter a game breaking bug which removes access to any controls or inventory, save for quitting the game. Additionally, I neglected to hard save frequently, and the game "helpfully" decided to auto-save right before it revoked my ability to play the game I paid for. Though I personally enjoyed the 77% of the game that LucasArts deigned to let me play, I would've hoped that when remaking a game, they would have checked for third act bugs that demolish the previous 5 hours I spent playing their game. Also, the game absolutely refused to download via GOG Galaxy, giving me an E2 error every time. I had to download the alternate installer from their website to get the game installed. And it seems to be an issue with this software, as Galaxy has no trouble downloading the other titles I have. Still, I did enjoy the 5 hours I was allowed to play the game, but considering how often tedious point-and-click adventure games can be, I'm not going to replay it to get to the end; I'll probably find a let's play somewhere and watch that instead.
