LeChuck got rejected by Elaine (20-40 years old), then got marooned on an island, seduced the local debutante who is an Aunt to a guy who looks 50-60 years old.

I honestly think they shouldn't have tried to tie it all together in one game.

IMHO it would make much more sense if LeChuck chased after a great-aunt of Elaine (also called Elaine) and Elaine being the spitting image of her (and her aunt also rejecting him) than to place Elaine at the start of the story and try to tie it all together.

It's okay for things to happen off-screen or even a generation prior.

Maybe it doesn't have to make sense and it probably messes with parts of the previous games already.

Ever since playing the Special Edition of Monkey Island 2 it has been my head-cannon that Guybrush is just a kid in a theme park playing make-belief Pirate / that kids dream. If we go with that it's possible the timeline isn't that consistent, within the game or even between games.

Maybe I should go with the kids playing theory. I still haven't played Escape and Return so maybe after those I will have a different perspective on it.
