The Secret of Monkey Island SE Alternate Ending

This video shows the alternate ending of The Secret of Monkey Island SE. It can also be used as a walkthrough to show how it is done. In closing, special thanks to Lucasarts for creating this great game!

On a side note, apologies for the poor video quality. I had lost my original files. So it didn't help much when I had to re-publish the video.

this was the ending i got when i played the original... so where can i see the other version

[EllipticalRealm]

@apex2000 If you watch Part 17 from 5:57 to 7:09 you will see where I hit the banana tree instead of the ship. Then if you watch Part 22 from 8:17 to 10:53 , you will see how it effected the dialog. Finally, watch part 23 "Wedding Crashers" from 8:05 to the end and you will see the other ending for the SoMI.

Soooo..... You weren't meant to hit the boat? I have to watch the actual game anding now.

[EllipticalRealm]

@bbob919 When SoMI was originally released, either ending could have been considered canonical / the true ending. However, when Escape from Monkey Island (the 4th game was released), the ending where the ship is sunk became the true ending based on the plot & story of Monkey Island 4.

That being said, as I stated in another comment this is actually the true ending. For purpose of my walkthrough, I showed both endings (the one in my walkthrough and the alternate / other ending).

lol in my first playthrough I got this ending and I thought it was the real ending

[EllipticalRealm]

@aspasiz You're right. It is the "real ending" (based on the story of Monkey Island 4). It's just when I did the walkthrough for SoMI, I chose the other ending instead. That being said, I wanted to show both endings (hence the ending in my walkthrough and the alternate / other ending).

i AGREE this is the true and CANON ending because otis and carla appear in MI4 saying it took them ages to get off the the island LOL, sure u can make it go other ways but thsi is the one that makes sense with the later games. although the only part i change is i make guybrush kill bob caue he is a ghost after all, and herman still apears if u do it right

I got this by mistake.

"It's not the size of the ship..."

[majavazeze]

Thanks for this, I wondered what it would be like :)

@bbob919 I think you are or should scince later otis and the gang return in escape from monkey island and apperently had a hard time finding their way off the island. So this might be the official ending.

woopsy... that was the ending I got... well, no need to see this twice.

i aimed for the banana tree and got myself the GOOD ending... Anyway how do you get some extra bananas for the monkey while sinking the ship? With the the big hands from the hut?
