Re: GO VOTE! You're not the only 1 who wants it
If all you KQ fans want KQ3 so badly then VOTE for it to be remade next in the General Forums. <br><br>It would probably be remade next anyways because lots of people voted for it already!<br><br><br><br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> : <p></p><i></i>

KQ3VGA suggestion
This is mostly for Wookie.
First of all, thank you for the wonderful experience that was KQ2VGA. I always considered the first two King's Quest among the worst Sierra games of all time (though they're still pretty good as games go), but now KQ2VGA is my favorite KQ game, story- as well as design-wise. I can't believe how much you got out of those cliché ridden characters and locations, without losing the feel of an original KQ game. Hats off to the whole team!
I'm thrilled with the idea that you might also be remaking KQ3 (I know you're making QFG2 first, and it'll be interesting to see how you could possibly improve on the original - except removing the alleyways of course). But it worries me that you say you want to take a minimalistic approach, only "enhancing" a few areas.
And I'm not just talking about design issues such as changing the real-time clock but still keeping the tension, and removing some of the randomness of characters appearing.
I'd really wish you'd consider expanding the Daventry part of the game (a return to familiar territory, except bad things have happened - I LOVED that in the original). I don't remember much of the plot from the original, but maybe you could make it fit in with sequence with The Father from the second test in KQ2VGA - seeing the ruined country in the background made me think of KQ3. Who knows, maybe The Father controls Manannan like he did Hagatha, and Alexander's kidnapping was just part of his plan to rule Daventry? That dragon didn't just turn up by itself, did it?
Edit: Doh! I just realized that this is exactly what the sequence from KQ2VGA refers to. But still, I hope that you'll expand on the final part of the game.
I'm really looking forward to KQ3 or whatever's next (PLEASE stick to the AGI remakes, no need to remake the pretty SCI games). The only Sierra remake I'd favor over KQ3 would probably be Gold Rush.

> KQ6+
I can't wait for the QG games to be out! I've never played them, and I've heard how great they are. I have some sugestions for the plot of a kq3vga. I've played king's quest, Laura Bow, Betrayal at Krondor and Betrayal in Antara. I'm disapointed that sierra has abandon traditional adventure games and only works on first person shooters. <p></p><i></i>

Re: > KQ6+
Thanks for the comments, GarageGothic. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed KQ2VGA.<br><br>Unfortunatley, we're not working on a KQ3VGA remake and have no plans to remake this game in the forseeble future. At the moment, we can only concentrate on one game at a time due to a full schedule.<br><br>Of course, you're still free to post KQ3 ideas of your own if you want... we just ask people not to spread false rumours about this, since it makes the current workload just that little bit more difficult to handle, and causes everything to take longer. <p></p><i></i>

Re: > KQ6+
Can't wait until you all get done with KQ1VGA 3.0, KQ2+ 2.0, and QFG2:VGA. I'm really excited about hearing what the next game will be. I, of course, can understand about trying to juggle too many things at once. If you attention is directed in too many different places, it's likely that the quality of work will diminish. I wouldn't want that. Not after the awesome job you did on KQ2+! <p><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><br>"Without the fleet, the contest would be on our home grounds, and war is one contest in which it is best to be on the visiting team." -ADM Nimitz<!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://navynuke.netfirms.com/ezboard/sub.gif" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></p><i></i>

Re: > KQ6+
Would love to, but can't. Like I've said, I've got orders to go to sea in the next couple of months. I really won't have the time to devote to a project like that. Who knows, maybe one day I can pick back up and release a KQ3 remake... only time will tell. <p><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><br>"Without the fleet, the contest would be on our home grounds, and war is one contest in which it is best to be on the visiting team." -ADM Nimitz<!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://navynuke.netfirms.com/ezboard/sub.gif" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></p><i></i>

Yeah, we all have projects (of sorts) to work on at the moment. Also, I'd much rather have Tierra do it.

Re: KQ3 & QfG2
I'm not exactly sure, but I don't think QfG2 and KQ3 had the same type of desert?!? I mean QfG had a lot of sand dunes and no cactus plants or any life for that matter. But KQ3 was pretty flat with some growth on all the screens. More a mexican style.<br><br>I can't wait for QfG2VGA!! It's gonna be great!! <p></p><i></i>

Re: Yeah it was.............................................
WHEN/IF it does! Remember Erpy's words! Everyone shouldn't go on like it's in the works or might be in the works. True it would be awesome and amazing and crucial because of the KQ2+ ending and continuing story etc and completing and the feat of feats, but let's stop thinking about it. It's not gonna make it come any faster. If they make it they make it, if not.....sigh...well...that would suck lol. But still, we should stop thinking and talking about it. We pretty much know that almost everyone wants it remade and we've really just talked the life out of it.... <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><br>"Requires MCGA, CGA, VGA, PGA, or TA-RA-RA-BOOMGA!!" <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>-Gary Owens, SQ4</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br></p><i></i>
