So. Is there any way to skip text passages? It's kinda annoying if you clicked the same line again and have to listen to the same speech again and again...
And, does anybody else have the feeling that you have to click a little bit beneath the line you wanna choose? Or is that caused by the resolution?

You can press backspace to skip the dialogue

if you're using vista , select properties of MISE.exe and click 'disable visual themes'
if you go to 'how to play' it will tell u how to skip dialogue text
on the other hand, I, among many others , are having trouble playing this game at all. Jumpy menus, jumpy mouse, uncontrollable mouse, controls not doing as they should.
Good luck

Not sure. I wasn't impressed by the menu screen or interface. In fact one screen had no button to get back out of. I had to actually press the escape key (!) and this is supposed to be the SPECIAL EDITION of a PC classic. Oh well. Other than that the GAME is golden. The modern upgrade is very good, aside from the lack of additional animation flourishes to bring it truly up to date, but I had the same problems with the text not being skippable and the *somehwat* inprecise nature of selection.
There is also the inventory/interaction portion of the game which is a bit of a chore even in the modernised version.
...but it's only about five pounds so small complaints. Just, not really a SPECIAL edition feeling as Eurogamer pointed out in its nice review.

Well, pressing backspace doesn't work for me (as for some other).
Either I'll figure it out or I have to live with it, could be worse.

Skip dialogue works fine here.
Use backspace instead of left arrow key.

backspace skips the whole dialogue, not just a line

Worthy makeover for a great game, though I don't really like the overly cartoony look Guybrush has had ever since MI3.

Yeah, sort of true, sadly. I wish they would have made him look a little more like the old one...

At the end it says "Guybrush Treepwood will return" so we can expect "Monkey Island 2 - Le Chuck's Revenge - Special Edition".
Don't mistake lack of talent for genius!

The inventory system is pathetic in the new edition.. had to switch to old interface for many of the inventory puzzles.
1 and 2 are still amazing.

You are absolutely right! I love this remake but this control scheme really needs to be improved in a patch or more likely in the next remake from LucasArts.

And he was so fucking hard...

You can still skip dialogue with . in the classic version... so for the boring dialogue I just switched to classic mode and pressed . to skip each line. Quite annoying that they didn't implement the same in the enhanced mode though.

Could this be a catalyst for more old classics being remade with improved grafics? Dare we hope for Loom SE, Fate of atlantis, day of the tentacle, full throttle, grim fandango etc etc etc?

Holy moly is this game really 20 years old? I tried playing it on Amiga 500 as a kid, but could't understand any english at that time, sweet to relive it today
