Hi Infamous Quests,
I just came by to add my 2 cents on this good game.
The voice acting:
You took me by surprise. Your actors are wonderful.
Personally I think this is the best collective performance I've ever seen in a game.
I don't know how you did it, maybe you kidnapped all the good voice actors?
Nevermind...
One quibble: quality of recording is inconsistent.
Portraits:
Top notch, looks like the cover art from a famous comic book. Initially I thought it's 'too' flamboyant but over time my opinion has changed. It's full of life & spark and does a great job, spicing up the characters.
The art:The amount of detail put in the general store was a pleasure to look at!
It reminded me of my youth, playing adventure games.
(Stop at a shop and read the description of 'every' single mysterious object on display. IRL the owner would be annoyed with a guy just standing still,
gaping at his goods
)
I liked the fishermen's cottage and the Inn looked so pleasant. Did you get an artist who worked at Sierra? This is a genuine question.
That said, I wish the game had a slightly higher resolution. It would benefit the artists too.
The GUI:I admit this is the least important. But I wish it looked better. A bit of polish perhaps. Not expecting it to be as cool as Gabriel Knight I.
Direction:I have trouble navigating myself through town. I often find myself asking 'Is that a way?', 'Is there a way?'
For some reason the wilderness is less confusing.
The writing:Wow. Where have you been? Finally a talented writer taking care of adult gamers, you're a breeze of fresh air!
Roehm:I like this guy, may he offend many many people throughout his adventure.
So... that's it.
I hope this game will be the beginning of a long and exciting journey.
