Isn't this game produced by the same guy that oversaw the Monkey Island series?

Re: Looking for my first place. (Advice thread)

ATM, if you plan on maybe renting a home ask your landlord for proof that he is current on his mortgage. Given the economic mess folks are in now a days, it is not unlikely for landlords to get foreclosed on in a middle of a lease. Your only remedy at a time like this is to sue the landlord; all i c...

Re: Does open source exist for QFG1,2?

According to Al Lowe, a ton of stuff was dumped in the dumpster (some was really innovative and original technology that was worth tons of money) without caring what it was. Hmm, in the trash = public property = finders keepers? (if you can find it now) Depends how it was dumped. If it was shredded...

Re: Remake Simon the Sorcerer 3D Please!!!

No AGDI does not remake Sierra titles per a universal Vivendi agreement. The agreement, or the limited license, allows them to make and distribute a certain title. So for each game that they released they needed an individual license. Unless, and I highly doubt it, Vivendi would give them an entire ...

Ebay? QfG V is like 10 bucks and is available quite regularly. It is the collection's that will take a serious bite out of you. However, I expect Vivendi to roll out a new QfG edition once the new QfG II comes out.

Re: AGDI'S CAPABILITIES

I agree that a Quest for Glory-type game should be made by AGDI, but I disagree regarding its distribution. I don't see AGDI doing any more remakes after QFG2, and I don't think they should. They've given so much to the adventure genre and community, and it's time they deserve to get something back...

Re: World of Warcraft

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe there was an article around the net that quoted the Coles (creators of QfG series) as actually playing WoW and comparing WoW along with Blizz to what Sierra and QfG were back the old day.

Re: QFG1VGA and climbing

You might be thinking of QfG4 and the acrobatics skill? Or maybe that you can import a QfG4 character back into QfG4? If there was such a bug it must have been with QfG1 original because I do not recall seeing anything along the lines of what you describe. No. The problem is that during your charac...

Re: QFG1VGA and climbing

I think not, but I remember Quest for Glory VGA had a serious bug that allows you to max all your stats right from the start except one. Just choose the easiest one to train. It's not fun to use it, though. It's not fun to climb up a tree 1500 times, either. You might be thinking of QfG4 and the ac...

Re: How do you improve Intelligence and luck

In QFG1 Luck could be brought up by playing the dagger throwing game with the chief. But intelligence is a grind because it requires casting or lock picking, as Erpy indicated. Try picking your nose maybe?

I recall reading that there are also a few specific acts you MUST do to become a paladin in QFG3, it's not only points based. IIRC you can avoid Paladinhood if you refuse to swear your honor to the peace mission. (What's more apt for a fighter than not believing in peace? ;)) *POSSIBLE SPOILER?* In...
