...I'm still as stupid-excited as a 27 year old to play it now. Bt As a 28 year old I feel exactly the same way, I check three fan sites every day (and five others at least once a week): AGD Interactive, Infamous Adventure, and Indiana Jones - Fountain of Youth. I loved the Sierra and Lucasarts adv...

Thief Hybrid
My kingdom for a lockpick! I sacrificed my dreams of being a paladin for that stupid lockpick, but it was worth it. Plus I gave my hero some magic skills and fighting skills so that he was something of a formidable warrior too. I imagined him a Robin Hood with magic, although sometimes I had to stea...

Honestly I don't expect much from VU at all, I was kinda goofing around with my wishfull thinking, I don't really expect anything like that from Vivendi. Come to think of it I don't know what we could possibly hope for for $19.99 - the original releases and dosbox maybe, lol. (by the way that was a ...

Yet more wishfull thinking
Or the release of the Silver Lining - Shadows (formerly KQIX) for that matter, which by the way I just can't wait for. Can you imagine though, a Kings Quest compilation with KQ I&II VGA and Shadows on it (Since those are the only fangames that have been granted licenses from Vivendi). That would...

I never played MOE
I wouldn't know MOE since I never played it, and since everybody who has played it seems truly traumatized if not emotionally scarred for life, it's probably a good thing. Not to mention that my lack of MOE exposure is probably what allows me to believe that a KQRPG would be perfect (especially if i...

Wishful thinking
Maybe Sierra/VUGames has asked them to create brand new commerical Kings Quest adventure games. a Massively Multiplayer Online King's Quest game!! Oh please God, that would be perfect, but unlikely. I'd still like to place my hopes on that idea though, or another idea that's just as unlikely but wi...

Only time will tell
Well I'm not going to hold my breath anymore, I had preordered the KQ compilation on Amazon, but now that they pushed the date back, I decided to discontinue that. Just when Vivendi started to redeem themselves in my eyes, they go and pull a stunt like this. I mean this is just unprofessional and f...

Ideas for new adventure game heroes and villains
We all know the classics: the Hero, Sonny Bonds, Roger Wilco, Leisure Larry, Indiana Jones, Guybrush Threepwood, ... (and the list goes on) What kind of hero or villain (or hero/villain) is today's adventure game fanbase looking for. It doesn't even need to be a fictional charactor. For example, I t...

Also from South Africa
I'm from South Africa, grew up in Germiston. I've been living in the US for 8 years now and was shocked to see the price of internet when I visited last year. Telkom's monopoly is crippling advancements in internet connectivity in South Africa. Almost all of my friends there still use dial-up and pa...

Just when you thought the genre was dead.
I couldn't agree more with these sentiments. I remember playing these games as a kid and having a blast. My brother and I would play together and rack our brains trying to work out the puzzles; I remember eagerly questioning all my friends at school who owned copies of the games for solutions or sug...

Complexities
I respect everyone's right to their copyright but at the same time wonder if it wouldn't be for the better if there were some general rules about this that were more generous.. Perhaps have a few rules about slander demanding you respect the original as to prevent things like QFG4.5 from happening....

Great dialogue!
There's some fantastic conversation here. I'm mostly a quiet observer around here, but I'm a huge fan of the classic adventure games. One of the biggest reasons I've been so eagerly awaiting the release of the fan project "The silver lining"(formerly KQIX) is because it offers a sense of c...

Protest!
Boycott vivendi and write them nasty letters, it's the least you can do people. This company needs to know that what they did was wrong. We can make them regret their decission.

Yeah... but I think he meant the rest of the game. Exactly, it was lacking as far as diversity goes, besides that already mentioned, there isn't much else. For example, take the Tokoloshe: http://www.vanhunks.com/tokoloshe1.html Now this little guy should have been included in the game, the story w...

of course
I'd play a remake of any adventure game at least once, I think your graphics are just fine and hope that you do make a remake of this game. However I hope your remake or anyone elses would not detur AGDI from completing their remake, that is the one that I look forward to the most.
