Having recently forced my partner to play through both MI1 and MI2, I must disagree. We played the fan-created hack which is the original SCUMM version but with the full voice from the remastered version hacked on top, and it's super great. We laughed. A lot.

Why the hack? I think you can switch to the old graphics in the remastered version. Or does that switch voices too?

Yes, you can't have the voices with the old graphics in MI1 Special Edition so you need the hack. Unfortunate oversight since I think many people would like to enjoy it that way. I believe they made it possible in the MI2 remaster but never changed this for the first one.

It does switch voices. But also we were playing on a platform not supported by the remastered version, so we needed to use ScummVM anyway.

I didn't even know this existed! Link? Or even just a good search term??
