QFG2 News & Updates: Version 2.0 Released on PC and Mac!

[Anonymous Game Creator 2]

I feel pretty confident in saying that people won't be disappointed by this remake and the hype will live up to the expectations (and hopefully exceed it in some cases). That may seem like tall claim to make, but this game has been recreated by true QFG fans. We've constantly kept in mind what other QFG fans would appreciate in a QFG2 remake and have tried to include many of those features as we could. We've also taken suggestions that have been posted on the forums over the years and implemented some of those into the remake too.

Certain aspects like the combat system are so improved that they ARE like a completely new feature in themselves. This isn't just a remake. The story is the same, but I think that the embellishments add just as much to this QFG2 remake, as the new plot added to KQ2+.

Good too hear, though I'm probably in the minority in not caring for the plot of KQ2. It looked great though, as ususal. I've just been going on what info has been released to the public thus far. The proof will be in the playing!

This does not appear to be another KQ2 guys, and I predict a lot of critisicm on this basis coupled with the fact that everyone's hopes appear to be WAY too high.

That's your previous comment which I was going off in reference to the KQ2+ remake. And yeah, of course there will be people who complain about some aspects, but who listens to those weirdos!

It seems like everyone has their hopes up for a *NEW* game (I've even seen some posts thanking the good Lord for a NEW Sierra adventure),

Well hey, for some people this IS a new game. Many people never had the fortune of experiencing the original. And i'd say the majority of the hype comes from people who are more than aware this is the game they love and thats exactly what theyr hyped up about.

yadda yadda yadda ... This does not appear to be another KQ2 guys, and I predict a lot of critisicm on this basis coupled with the fact that everyone's hopes appear to be WAY too high...yadda yadda yadda

most moronic first post ever?

I had posted something about your uncalled-for personal attack, but I think I'll withdraw it, and leave you boys to your smugdom.

I'm really excited about this release. I've always been a fan of the second game, but I hardly ever replay it since I'm not too keen on text games. I've always complained about sierra never remaking this game, as they did with the first, but finally I get what I want! I have yet to play the first and second king's quest remakes since I'm not so crazy about the series (although kq6 is one of my favorite games ever) but maybe I'll take a look when I have the time.
I wonder what they're thinking of making next? Space Quest 2 or 3? Laura Bow 1 perhaps?

[OmerMor]

Considering the amount of publicity this release had over the years, were any surprises still kept as a secret?
I mean - you talked about a few new easter eggs, and the new battle system - is there anything left in store that will drop our jaws?
I'm not implying that if your answer is 'no' I'll be disappointed (I've been waiting for this game for so long it CAN'T possibly disappoint me). I only want to know if I should expect the unexpected :-)

[Erpy]

We'll leave that up to your judgement.

[Spanky]

Sorry if this is a newbie/redundant/annoying question, but has a time of release been mentioned yet?

[Erpy]

Nope. I'm afraid not.

Don't you mean you're a frayed knot?

[Spanky]

Donut yew me yen "yore a frayed knot"?

[jpnuar1]

Wouldn't all these posts be better placed in the "Rats off to you, AGDI" thread?

most moronic first post ever?

I would agree, but it appears to be your thirtieth.

[MusicallyInspired]

Sorry if this is a newbie/redundant/annoying question, but has a time of release been mentioned yet?

Forgive my obvious question, but if a release date was announced wouldn't it be plastered on the main page?

[Mr. Alsheid]

Guys, stop asking about the release date. The more you ask, the more likely they are to hold onto the game for another couple days.

They wouldnt do that however it is annoying

[Mr. Alsheid]

It could happen. For all we know, all our constant complaining over the early courses and release date speculations had caused the game to get pulled from today as a release date, moved back a week "just to show us".

[RogerKorby]

that would just be mean to the people who are patient

[Mr. Alsheid]

Enough conspiracies, maybe they're waiting for the moon to be between the scorpion's claws and the dragon's jaws. Whenever that happens, it will be out 2 days before that.

[kosch]

Yah... I saw a license plate on my way home from church tonight, the last letters were "QFG" I thought for SURE it was a sign from God. lol. Oh well, I think at this point everyone is looking for things. I think I'm just going to stop thinking about it so much and just let it come out when it comes out

[eriqchang]

COURSE 4 is in session - well, sort of. I've been having a problem with people stealing my tools lately...

p.s. notice the new MUTE button.

[Skunk]

Mute button oh sweet mute button. It was my only real gripe with the new site other than the fact that it does not pay me or sleep with me.

[Gronagor]

Nice job Eriq. Good production video!
