Costly?  Why? People have to live.  This is a job to people. Salaries... vary between $30,000-$80,000 (US).  Sometimes even more, depending on position. Artists and animators - 10 person team @ (say the lowest) =$300,000 dollars. Programmers - 4 @ $50,000 = $200,000 Designer - 1 @ $50,000 Writers/T...

well said.  although, we'd be even happier if every one of those dreamed up sequels materialized into brilliant fully-realized QFG games.  ;)

To set the record straight on KQ7; it was released first for Windows 3.1 ONLY.  Then when Win 95 came out, Sierra released a version for Win 95 ONLY.  There was a DOS version, too, and if memory serves, it came out around the same time as the Win 95 version, also released separately.  A pretty crum...

I think your main difficulty here (aside from programming and copyright worries  ;) ) is going to be in coming up with a storyline that doesn't seem arbitrary or forced.  Loom's storyline was fantastic, and even with somewhat of an open ending, it still came to a perfect resolution.  Forge would hav...

there are two methods that might work for you.  the first one to try would probably be running the game in dosbox (a program which emulates a dos environment and allows old dos-based games to run on newer systems), if indeed you have the dos version of the game (I'm not sure if there was a windows v...

with dosbox, i've found that just copying all the files off the cd into the game directory doesn't usually work.  if you don't own the cd, but can get your hands on it, you'll probably want to just copy the entire cd into a directory and then mount that directory as your cdrom drive in dosbox.  with...

a lot of people have been talking about how AGD should add some quests for fighters/magic users/thieves/hybrids to QFG2 VGA, but I was under the impression that it was going to be a one to one remake, without any notable additions/changes to the gameplay or storyline.  I think the QFG2 VGA feature p...

Go pure! Be a warrior! (I've heard rumors that Warriors would have more special tasks/quests than the rest as a reward. Also a love interest in the game would only be possible for the warrior-class.)  :p Are we still talking about Quest for Glory here?  Warriors = Fighters?  Each character type has...

well I meant the quest for glory hero as in the whole series not just qfg1, (the initial post doesn't specify).  Keep the cape or don't, but if you do I would at least suggest some folds or something to make it seem more cloth-like.

i vote to lose the cape, I always hated that part of the QG1 remake's costume, and in this instance it kinda makes him look a little more boy wonderish than we'd probably like from the nameless hero we know and love.  also the pants are a bit bright and could probably stand to not be skin tight.  Ot...

I don't know, many different kingdoms you could travel between. The ability to play a villain and plot against heroes perhaps. Sounds a lot like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (a FANTASTIC rpg by the way).  Not exactly an adventure game in the classic sense of the category, but it is rife w...
