Anyway, when Escape came out, it not only shattered this whole plot point, but also Herman's story. This explanation fit pretty well and kept the storyline going in a nice and clear direction, though some hated this explanation simply because it wasn't what Ron intended. This was supposedly almost a year before Secret started. Yeah, LeChuck explained in Curse that he tortured Marley, left him for dead, and sent his ship into a whirlpool. Now that I've finally completed MI2, I've got to ask! What's the problem with Herman being Horacio Torquemeda Marley? It's even hinted on MI2 that a Marley captain disappeared while racing, and the parrot kept repeating lines that were used on Escape from Monkey Island! Everything fits perfectly! Did I miss a detail that creates a plot hole or something?
The only acceptable, elaborate logic I heard from Escape haters so far is that it destroyed Herman Toothrot's story, and since I had never played MI2, I couldn't doubt anything. The most common reasons I heard for bashing it are its keyboard controls and Guybrush 3D model, which, in my humble opinion, doesn't make the game worse than any other of its series, they're more like personal issues. As a huge fan of the game, I tried to listen to some people's explanations. So, ever sinced I registered on these forums and started reading about Monkey Island on the internet as a whole I was actually very surprised MOST people either hate or have big issues with Escape from Monkey Island.
