To Heir is To Human

#1 Post by FatherGhostface » Tue Oct 12, 2004 6:15 pm

Okay, here's my idea! If guys are gonna make KQ3 remake then you got to make more exciting! Make Alexander talk more, make talking new and not so new character to interact with him! Like my idea for a new character is an owl named Scowl! He always helps Alex do the jobs around the house and tries to keep him out of trouble! I think that the black cat named Orion should be the one likes to take all the adventures and all! And the chickens should have part to! I'm gonna start writting the story! BYE! ;)

Hi there,

there actually is a KQ3+ version under production with enhanced storyline. It does not currently feature an owl, although a cameo for Cedric is under consideration. However it is considered considerably more exciting by at least one person on these forums, and has talking new and not so new character to interact with him (sic).
And might I suggest you buy a splechkkkere bfore you writt the stary? =D

Actually I've always felt that what Kings Quest III really needed are lots and lots of cut scenes involving a side story about an alcoholic armadillo who's constantly trying to hook up with non-armadillo females.

One of the things I like about Radiant's remake so far is that things are more sensible now. That is, nothing is just lying around the countryside with no particular reason why it would be there. Some of the items have new puzzles associated with getting them, and at the same time make sense if you were consider the game world and the motivations of the characters within it.

I'm also a big fan of the fact that the Manannan disappearing period has been removed - that was my biggest complaint in the original game, how you only got a limited time period to get everything done, so you ended up having to keep restoring/restarting your game as you tried to figure out everything.

PS: Radiant, if you're reading, I've been looking forward to the next beta release. ;)

I dont think another remake of KQ3 is in order, try something more original. Maybe a make your own fan sequel, thats what I did.

Well actually rog I think it's too late for that, KQ 3+ from what I hear is already mostly done (at least the graphics and programming) and just needs debugging. This is just the impression I get so don't take it as law.

I'm fairly sure that Rog was addressing Father Ghostface. And I agree with him. Sure, there's no law that says you can't remake a game that someone else is tackling, but in this case there is already 2 remakes of KQ3 being made. Another one would probably receive very little attention.

Try something original. Like CoC remake, just make the effort.

Ya. Try and contribute to that. ;)
Is it just me or do I find it harder to remake backgrounds then make your own?

the only bg i ever made, made me wanna puke and it didn't work anyways. ahh that woulda been a great game if I had the slightest bit of talent. Infact my game would have been 1 room with about 8 people in it and you wouldn't even have to walk. The game is like laziness heaven infact it was designed by and for us lazy italians.
