DeathSpank, The Cave and a couple mobile games in the last 5 years.
I really liked the idea behind The Cave, the execution, not so much. But I hope you are right about Thimbleweed Park
Well, Ron wasn't actually making games anymore until he decided to do DeathSpank.
Since then, he made DeathSpank 1 & 2 (which were sweeeeet imo, especially TOV ), then 2 mobile games and then The Cave.
That's three rather big games in 5 years, I don't see is as bad as you do but, hey, it's a matter of subjective taste.
Let's agree to agree about high expectations for TP.

They were? Didn't notice, I personally loved The Cave and, at the moment being, Thimbleweed Park seems like it's gonna be very special and memorable.
We'll see.

I don't think anybody would allow him to do the sequel in pixel art as he wants to. One thing is being a consultant for ToMI, another one is developing your own third baby. I don't see him ever changing his mind on Monkey3.

Ron is known to change his mind on things from time to time. He did work with Telltale on Tales of Monkey Island. I wouldn't rule the possibility of a Terrible Toy Box developed Monkey Island game completely out, especially since the Disney owned Lucasfilm seems a lot less hands on with their game licenses than LucasArts was.

Yeah who cares, Ron's latest games were terrible.
Give me some LucasArts figurines

The biggest thing that Ron Gilbert wanted was a small team to make a Monkey Island game in a classic style. If Thimbleweed Park allows Terrible Toybox to be sustainable, there's always the chance that he can license the property from Disney (or go through Sony as an intermediary like Double Fine is doing).
Yeah, he won't make another MI unless he owns the IP, he's not interested in the rights.

The problem lies in the fact that Ron stubbornly refuses to make another MI game unless he completely owns the IP, on the principal that a licensing deal would result in too much studio interference, holding him back creatively. So basically, unless Ronzo wins the lottery, it's not happening.

The IP will never be given to anybody, and there's a decent chance it will never be sold regardless of how much money Ron offers because it's just not something companies are inclined to do.
With given I obviously meant for an embarassing amount of money.
Very unlikely, I know, but one can dream, right?

Please do NOT vote for Monkey related characters.
If Disney understands they can milk money over MI we all can kiss our chances goodbye to have the IP given to Ron.
Thanks.
