> [@Guga](#): > > I’m also team “voted no on first poll but yes on second” Same here. Though I think it’s quite natural as the polls ask different questions. 1. Do you want a TWP2 (to be made)? 2. If TWP2 was made, would you buy (play) it? Given that, sane answers would be “Yes” and “Yes”, “No” and “Yes” and “No” and “No”. If anyone voted “Yes” and “No”, please explain yourself 🙂! ---

I think Ron is also still looking for the right balance: _I was surprised at how many objects didn’t have custom default responses. A large number of objects just said “That doesn’t seem to work.”_ (From: [Return to Monkey Island Dev Diary | Grumpy Gamer](https://grumpygamer.com/dev_diary/)) Vs this timestamp: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/S4FROstxrO4/maxresdefault.jpg "Thimbleweed Park 2: Ron Gilbert Reveals New Story and Gameplay Details | Full Interview") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4FROstxrO4&t=21m30s) ---

“Green nodes are tutorial sections” Mmm, interesting that there is a tutorial in a sequel - must be to get used to whatever the fancy new UI will be. ---

With RtMI’s tutorial/park/play-area place, I had no idea what I was meant to be doing or how to do it… It was only when I realised I could just skip it and go straight to the actual game that everything made sense again. ---

But it’s quite clear: You have to go to the black room, get the black object and use it in the other black room with this black thing in the black box. ---

I like the fact that there is a tutorial step in the middle of other stuff. I hope it’s a bit like having new character abilities being added slowly as the story progresses. “Upgrades” ---
