I am assuming the series has been a financial flop given that it has already feature in two humble bundles? Anyone have any inside word on sales?

Banter and Chit-Chat! / TOG King's Quest Chapter 1
« on: December 17, 2016, 10:33:20 PM »
I played chapter 1 when it was released and thought it was pretty good. I played it with my then 6 year old, we both enjoyed it and he played it through about four or five times. We got chapter 2 as soon as it came out and I was really unimpressed and we never bothered to finish it. He has been asking me to play Kings Quest again (yes!!!) so I suggested he start with episode 1 again. It was watching and helping him play through it again over 12 months later that I realised this chapter is a classic. He enjoyed replaying it just like we all did with the classics.

Has anyone played through all the chapters? Is it worth suffering through chapter 2 to and playing the rest?
Sorry if this is duplicating another thread

Agree the finals should be a ripper this year.

You are right with good game management we would have on a couple more and prob be in the 8, but to be a top 6 or top 4 club we need some forwards. If RTS and Luke are fit for the year we can live without foran  but we can't live without a beast

While of course I love the idea of Foran, I don't think he will fix our problems. We have a lame forward pack and consequently play props on the wing and then get surprised when teams score off simple kicks behind our prop wings.

We don't have an angry forward in the whole pack and while our three back rowers are fine players (hoffman, mannering and thompson) they are severely out of balance and don't have an offload, aggression or footwork between them.

The adventure genre has shown more life in the last 5 years than the hapless Warriors

You may be slow, but you make up for it in superior Rugby skills. Or are we so bad now that it makes the All Blacks look good?
The ABs are on another level right now... Still The Warriors have just missed the 8 AGAIN. Seriously over them right now, till next season when my expectations rise only to be crushed again

Us kiwis can be a bit slow!! I actually thought it was going to be a serious game where you played the bad guy.

Prior to playing it though I am not sure many knew that QFI was going to be a partial piss take. I had backed it and followed it right through andI was not expecting that.

I think one thing is qfi had a wide appeal in terms of its storyline. The idea of being a bad ass has the ability to reach outside of the traditional niche classic adventure market, I am not sure a bard with a lute has the same appeal

Without releasing figures was QFI a lot more successful ( I understand it cost a lot more to produce)

I never played Broken Age and would be interested in how people compare the new Kings Quest to broken age as a modern adventure?

I just had a quick 15 minute play with my 6 year old son.
When he saw the dragon "dad we need a weapon"
I shuddered "we use our brain instead" (or the space key with no thought)
Then he got so excited when he saw the bow and arrow "look a weapon"
Me "it's not a weapon"
"ummm dad a bow and arrow is a weapon"
