Why would graphic adventure games be so costly to produce? I can't imagine that the programming resources required would be too great (unless you're crazy enough to try a adventure/RPG hybrid like, say, the Quest for Glory series). Design is fairly basic, though it's very difficult to get puzzles ex...

I dunno. Assuming that Sierra was crazy enough to revive Quest for Glory, King's Quest, Space Quest or whatever, they'd pander to fans. The only reason that they totally butchered the style of Leisure Suit Larry was due to its subject matter fitting well with the 18-35 male target audience, if not t...

Gamespy posted an interview with the Silver Lining team. Check it out: http://pc.gamespy.com/pc/freeware-king8217s-quest-ix/677071p1.html Anyways, good news. I'm not as informed on the goings-on of the graphic adventure creation scene (despite trying to get a project of my own going :|), but it's ni...

Interesting stuff. I'm looking to learn some things about game development for my adventure game project, so attending something like this could be cool. Too bad my project isn't far enough in development for me to attend as a developer, but I know that I need to prove that I can get something done,...

I'd use it to make the crazy game ideas I have floating around in my head, and on paper, a reality. Yeah, I'd let fans make their interpretations of our games, as long as they didn't try to sell them, or call it a direct sequel. For example, I would have asked the King's Quest 9 team to simply take ...

I was drawn in. I hadn't played an adventure game in nearly a decade when I found this forum. Right after starting my posting here I bought the Quest For Glory Collection (as my old ones I remebered didn't work anymore) and I Started all over again. Since then I've bought and beat Broken Sword 1 a...

Gee, I feel a slightly unrelated rant coming on! This is also part of the reason why people who are trying to revive the graphic adventure game should make compelling original titles instead of games based on already established franchises. It's simply safer to work with something that is entirely y...

VU making a offical sequel? We want that? VU has 0% experiance with adventure games. All the Sierra guys got laid off, so theres no point in VU making a badly made KQ/QFG/SQ. But I guess even if its bad, we all want to see more. :cry Who says that the company doesn't employ people who have made gr...

KQ1VGA took about nine months. KQ2VGA took exactly one year. Each subsequent game we've worked on is more complex than its predecessor, so the development times also increase. On a related note, our main focus will be reverting back to QFG2VGA programming a bit later this week and it will be worke...

I would bet with the Revolution download things that you have to pay for the download. Twilight Princess has been pushed back to Q1 2006 and FFXII is also due 2006. I'll definetly be getting a PS3 and if the price is right I may also pick up a Rev awhile later. Advance Wars rocks btw! (well the GBA...

I played Broken Sword with my Game Boy Advanceand I used to have the second one but it got deleted :( I'll have to install it again if I can ever find it again. Is it true that Broken Sword 3 is now on the cube? There's no Broken Sword game on the Gamecube, to my knowledge. Anyways, I'm anticipatin...
