Where is everybody? It is so quiet here now. Are everybody in exams now maybe or did your fans gave up on waiting for another year for your third remake?  :eek

I'm here, I just hide in the shadows and go to write messages and forget my password and then not bother to write the messages. Hmm let's go with the shadows thing shall we?

I'll be here until I cannot do otherwise for medical reasons only. Even if I don't post much at all.

I don't post much because I usually don't have much to say, but when I do, I usually let it all out and have several exchanges with the members before going back to my quiet state until I have something to say again.

Till next time stay cool  :smokin

haha funny, I was almost thinking the same thing. I usually stop by every now and then, but there's not always threads going on...and I usually can't think up too much to talk about on my own...  ;)

This is happening in every forums I visit now. Even in icelandic forums.

I rembember when I started on the internet on 2001 about 15-20 threads in each forums had so much of new interesting topics to talk about but now I see only 1-3 threads with something new to read. Are chat forums not as popular as they was? Or is this because there is so much of new and fresh games coming out now.

I have a idea about what we should talk about. ;)

What computer games are you looking forward to get in your christmass presents in this year, ...other than Quest for glory 2?

Fribbi? Have you not heard of patience? Sure it's taken a long time to be made but everyone else here can handle it, like myself. You've tried to remake a game, it's not a walk in the park you know. It's not just a thought that comes to your head, remaking a game takes time and effort and I know.

There are 5 people working on this project, well perhaps more I dunno. Compare that with Sierra. You had over 30 people working on the damn game, that is why it took so quick to develop. So try to keep abit of patience at a game that the AGD's are working so hard on to develop, remaking games is a bloody hard job, especially one as complex as QFG2. The other two remakes took shorter since it was a normal Sierra adventure, QFG2 is much different, all those stats, day and night cycles, timed events, not to mention the length of the game.

And even AMG summed it up pretty well about the activity of the forums. Forums aren't pubs where the locals would walk in and have a chat. There are two lives in this modern world now, real lives and online lives, and well, the real life is much more serious than the internet. So enough of these posts about QFG2 taking too long and why everyone's buggered off, people haven't lost faith in the game, no faith has been lost in AGDI and no faith has been lost in the entire community, things are just taking a while to move along.

Do you really expect the AGD's to be glued to their computers? They're just like you and me, they have lives and they don't really want their entire time on the computer.

Yes I understand Broomie and I was not complaining about that. I was complaining why it is so quiet here and then I asked just a simple christmass question. It has nothing to do with AGDI team.

But ok maybe I should go since I am getting this bad feeling being here again and come back next year so have very good christmass then and happy new year and thank you for the last year goodbye then. This website are getting too boring now for me.
:p  :(

Hey, I think I saw that... making fun of G.I. Joe right?



QFG2VGA would be a great Christmas present.  If not... a castle would be a good Christmas present.  You said games, but I'm using my imagination, because I can't think of any games I want which I do not already own.

I think it's my presence. Even though I'm a n00b, I've killed your poor forum.

Why?  We get some days off, time to relax, maybe have a snowball fight... I like the winter.  December is the one time of year (usually close to Christmas day) that I get to see extended family.  Of course I somehow manage to get sick almost every year, but when I stay healthy it's a time I really enjoy.

A little thing called work has sucked up a lot of my time at the moment. Plus, I'm only checking the boards every now and then, as I'm mainly waiting for QFG2VGA to come out and progress has been painstakingly slow, hence not much point in coming here nearly every day.
