Hey all
well i have played the Kq1, Kq2 and Kq3 remakes and they were awesome, i think of all the king's quest games i would love to see a remake done of kq6. Maybe a new story, new lands to visit, same lands in the original game, returning characters and new characters etc...
what does everyone think?

It's already in VGA.  There's really no point to remake it.  Sorry.

Gotta agree there. There's just not anything you can add to the game to make it better.

You mean something like a KQ6 1/2? Heh. Don't think there's too many people who would mess with it.

I'm with Gron on this one. KQ6 is almost a perfect p&c adventure game. Don't mess with the goods.

Yeah, KQ6 is probably the pinnacle of adventure games.

Though a new adventure with Graham?  Exploring other lands?  That would be awesome!  Someone better get on that!

Oooh!!   King's Quest: The Emperor's Bequest!!

Tell you what Bt! You and Klytos do the backgrounds and sprites, and I'll do the other 95% of the game!!

Hahah!  I posted a hybrid Colonel's Bequest/Quest for Glory joke in another thread before I read this one.  Hahah!

I agree, a game taking midplace between/before/after 5 and 6 would be neat. Tho one that remains faithful to the humour and magic of the series, unlike QFG4.5 did with the QFG series. Not that I disliked QFG4.5.

I'd like to see one take place between KQ2 and KQ3 from Graham's point of view. T'would be interesting to see what went on in Daventry (if anything) while Alexander was growing up a slave.

It might be tough to make a compelling adventure game between KQ2 and 3.  I would imagine that the three headed dragon would cause destruction around Daventry.  Not exactly sure what you could do as Graham, since he seemed pretty powerless to stop the dragon...

Well, we don't know at what point the dragon came. We only know that he came sometime after Alex was abducted. There could be a story in between somewhere.

As I recall, the dragon didn't occupy Daventry for all of Alexander's "exile"; if it had, I bet Rosella would have been asked as sacrifice a lot sooner.  There's some interesting info over at the KQ Omnipedia.

Plus, you should consider that the two KQ novels written by "Kenyon Morr" were set between KQ2 and KQ3.  Honestly, that is the longest gap between two games (a little less than two decades).  Only The Floating Castle, written by Craig Mills, occurs outside that time period (somewhere between the end of KQ4 and the start of KQ6).

OR!!

The game can be set where Graham and Valanice are searching for Alexander.

It would be a classic over again.

Graham searches for something!!!! YAY!

and right at the end of the game can be, the dragon hits Daventry and takes Rosella. Then maybe a small scene of "Gwydion" with Mannanan
and then you go off to play KQIII

Why KQ 6, remake king quest 8 if you want to. Boy were those sierra guys drunk when they were making it. That remains the first & only game I have uninstalled and deleted out of dissapointment without playing till the end.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with MOE as a game. It's just not a true King's Quest. The game is actually quite good and I think the only reason people dislike it is because it breaks from the traditional King's Quest style in a big way. But it isn't a bad game in itself.

I imagine it would involve Graham progressing through his royal cellar at an alarming rate.

Mead, of course. Best served hot.
