I would too, considering I go home from work to program my game but I don't think Erpy (or the team) are regularly releasing those.  There was one other thread I read which had a neat one about monsters not appearing when they were supposed to but I don't know which thread that was in. Edit: Never m...

AGC2, your Leaning Tower of Pisa image isn't aligned correctly.  And the bushes around it look a little blocky.  Good try though.

I always love to see these behind-the-scenes posts.  Thanks Erpy.

Seems the first bug is a result of not updating a variable at the appropriate time.

tedium is a reasonable price to pay Exactly the part I disagree with.  It's hard for me to understand a game designed, even in small part, for tedium (you know, the very opposite of fun ).  Doesn't that defeat the very purpose of a game ? To me the ideal (but unrealistic) solution would be to have ...

Repetition

I was reading a QfGII thread just now and noticed how much time and effort people put into repetitive tasks.  "Welcome to the gaming world" you say?  True.  But there's got to be a better way to some things. Take maxing out your throwing skill.  You can pick up a few tons of rocks and star...

There are some great new adventure games out there.  My personal suggestions are: The Sam and Max series (original game by LucasArts) and Runaway 1 & 2

Quest for Glory III was released in '92.  Online resources have become much more thorough in the last 15 years.  Starting with the wiki for East Asia you are bombarded with links to dozens of other pages.  And that's just the wiki (which provides links to its sources as well).  I disagree that dedic...

I really like the idea.  It seems a lot of good things could be brought to each character. The fighter could master his battle skills, especially expanding it to fighting (and fighting in) groups.  The focus can be on accuracy and even death strokes at the highest levels, with knowledge of his enemi...

Re: 7 Years

What makes people think that somehow if they ask "the question," they'll get a different answer than everyone else who's asked?  If you've truly been here 7 years then you know your answer.

Well, there was a bandit camp in KQ5, if you don't get your wish in the QfG2 remake.

And the desert wasn't that boring.  There were at least four interesting locations there that I could think of.  But after all, it is a vast desert - not a populated city.

I think 2002 was the year.  That's when Episode II and Two Towers were released.  In both, I think they got CGI right.  Yoda was done well but Gollum was incredible. I agree about the Matrix fight looking rubbery.  Somehow they got the motion capture aspect wrong on it.  Or maybe they just wanted to...

I never played the game but I do think the class was relevant, for the reasons I mentioned before.  At the beginning it might not matter, but that's perfect for the start of Quest for Glory 1.  Af...

Personally, I'd like to see the reverse of what you guys are talking about: becoming someone based on how you start out and how you play the character. Imagine that instead of choosing your character, you are presented with an image of a shadow.  You then put points into whatever you want.  If you a...

This is a good thing.  I have a hard time picking between KQ5 and KQ6.  Cedric aside, there was little wrong with each.  Nowadays I prefer more serious/darker games but I have fond memories of both.

Seems like anticipation is half the fun.  Though I would argue half the fun is just playing half the game.   ;)

By the way, are we likely to see another trailer between now and when the game is released?
