Re: Ok I hate asking but seriously what time...

I'm not so sure we should judge this on the basis of principles here, but on the basis of the ethics of each specific situation. For example: Microsoft is a giant, evil corporation. Give them more money and they will find more efficient ways to make your life worse, destroy PC games as such and grin...

Re: Games like QfG, but not necessarily adventure games...

Ooh, lands of lore does sound and look like quite a bit of fun. It should be vaguely gettable too, but I wanted to ask before I picked it up: it looks like it's got some 3-D-ish fight scenes, but does it run more like SLoH/Companions of Xanth or more like UUW 2? That is to say, do you have a bunch o...

Re: Games like QfG, but not necessarily adventure games...

The last two games suggested do have things in common with QfG, but I should point out that the point of this thread was to find humorous RPGs, since QfG also happens to be an RPG with humor at the forefront of the game. It's not that your suggestions are not appreciated, but we've had lots of threa...

Re: Games like QfG, but not necessarily adventure games...

I'll have to check out Divine Divinity and Bard's Tale, though I'm a little iffy given that I couldn't quite tell how gameplay really went from their websites. They look marginally BG and Diablo-style, but that just might be an aspect of the time they were produced. They still seem definitely in the...

Re: Games like QfG, but not necessarily adventure games...

I'd forgotten about Planescape. It's sort of a borderline case, but it probably counts. If for no other reason than that Nordom is hilarious. I have actually played through that one, though ultimately I'm a little iffy about it. As others have said before, the infinity engine was just not equipped f...

Games like QfG, but not necessarily adventure games...

Heya all. So now that we're in the final stretch of waiting for the game, I thought I'd put up one of those 'recommend me a good game like QfG' threads, since you would probably be best in the know. But here's the catch: I'm not necessarily looking for more adventure games, or just more RPGs. What I...

Re: ** HOLY HINT BOOKS! COURSE 5 HAS APPEARED! **

I think when they said there would be development videos and (perhaps) baking tips they meant that those would actually apply to the 5 courses to come after the first one, rather than a new set of updates. You know, because the 5 courses we saw did in fact contain development videos. Anyway, my favo...

Re: ** HOLY HINT BOOKS! COURSE 5 HAS APPEARED! **

Saweet update, everybody. I'm especially loving the new fankit with accompanying screenies, and I've already been plugging AGDI on game sites I like to frequent. Like everybody else I'm getting new imports from QfG1 ready. Here's hoping it's out before my fighter and thief are done! Now, if you'll j...
