Every 7 days? Hmm, therefore the game releases after 7 Monkey Island Mondays, which would be either the 22nd or 29th of August (depending on whether the game released on the same week as the final Monkey Island Monday, or the week after).

Oh, I didn’t realize that, for the music. You’re right. That’s awesome! This is definitely something I love and have been missing from a lot of recent games.
I love this because it feels like the music evolves with you, so it’s more immersive for me. You feel like you’re part of a world.
I was a big fan of that in the 90s, obviously in MI2 and Curse, but even in other games like Banjo-Kazooie.
I don’t remember any recent games with memorable or even interesting music.
Yes, this would be consistent with the fact that the trailer video also had a bird frozen in that way.
I already feel a crossover between RtMI and Ace Attorney

Mark of the Ninja has a responsive sound system like that.
I never played it. Now, you got me interested.

“7” again:
7 August?
7 September?
Would they hint now at a “7 something” if the release wasn’t quite soon?

Interesting. Guybrush has that sort of… sassy optimism that he had in the latter games. It does feel like he’s already lived through Tales, rather than coming straight from Revenge.
But maybe that’s just my perception, and maybe it has a lot to do with dialogue-written-to-be-spoken versus dialogue-written-to-be-read.
It’s really good. If there’s a chance you like the kind of game I’d definitely recommend trying it.

Can it be just the actor aging?

As always, I wonder if they’re serious or just trolling us.
I can definitely see them releasing the game next week on a #MonkeyIslandMonday, just like that.
This is what I love and hate about them.
No, it’s more of the line itself. Close your eyes and hear Guybrush saying: “Guilty… of being a mighty pirate!”
Which Guybrush’s can you imagine delivering that line?
In my mind, it comes more naturally from Curse-Escape-Tales Guybrush. Maybe I’m just off, and maybe it’s because those three games were already voiced.

That’s true, it’s the line of an accomplished pirate.
a COLD shakedown, by the way.
90°N or 90°S are the locations of the Poles.
You know, I’ve thought about that. I don’t know what else it could mean… Unless the joke is that there are seven days in the week? Idk…
I think that’s all there is to it. But they can’t keep dropping this stuff every Monday unless the game isn’t too far off. At least that’s what I tell myself.

It’s both: seriously trolling us.
I think that they are exactly the kind of people who could do this.
I share about half of your feelings, but I won’t specify which half.
That’s the feeling that I always get from listening to Dominic.
Wow. 
I get the impression that it’s a coordinated effort to hint at something quite practical.
I also think that it’ unlikely that they’ll publish all these small revelations every week for months: even if they have a lot of material to share, they would reveal too much about the game.
But August the 7th, 2022 is a Sunday. I don’t know much about games… would it make sense to release a game on a Sunday?

Eh. Who knows with Ron? Haha. My way of looking at it is like this. It is releasing in 2022. We are more than half way through 2022. I can wait as long as I need to. It won’t be long before Monkey Time. Also the amount of teases seem to hint that it’s coming sooner rather than later but i’m not getting my hopes up.
