It's back...and gotten a little bit older.

Yeah, you know, I guess I really just don't care about this game.  I bought it when it first came out, so I get every chapter, but I haven't played beyond chapter one due to an honest lack of interest.  It just isn't for me.  They dropped the ball on this one - despite doing some things right (The art IS beautiful) they still got it wrong for the King's Quest style.  I feel like the game is cursed with the KQ name.  If it was its own thing, it'd be way better.

But as a King's Quest game, it sucks.

Just a guess -- She's been split into two separate women, a la Captain Kirk in "The Enemy Within"...

[Kaldire]

yea I won that wikia contest and well,
ive not played past chap 1
the game really isnt for me either.

though yes beautiful. but ugh.

ported games of the future look grim
band nam and SE  ughh
but this.. sad.

Finished my Full Chapter 3 Walkthrough, the chapter in the Game is sadly Shorter then Ch2 with more cutscenes in any Game ive ever seen.

im not sure why they dont allow for skipping of the dialog esp on 2nd play

EDIT: daventry ive noticed many English errors in your walkthrough, not that my syntax is so great.
"WITCH" should be "which" etc..


chap 1 you can get all achievements etc in 1 play
but not chap 2
and idk about 3.. I kinda stopped caring, as the saves dont let you load to a point only start a chapter over
where you have to listen to eeeeeeeeeevverything allll over again like a bad TTG

id love to see multiple endings but ughh my head hurts just playing chap 1 then going ok who do i save in chap 2,
then reload a save file and save the other.. doh..
cant wait until the game is done and everyone has to start over from chap 1 again due to some unseen thing that caused x y or z to happen 3 chapters later doh

ty for the walkthrough but alas it wont help until the game is truly over.
until then its just ONE of many paths you can take

like did you make 2 walkthroughs for chapter 2?
one for saving fuzzle or whatever and one for the other (you cannot save both)

sheesh

in this manner I wish it was as short and less blah blah .. like say the mini sode of walking dead (only about 1.7 hrs long) but all the end is is .. save yourself or die with your kids. dun dun
but on that one you can just load a save near the end of that chapter..
grr
odd gentlemen did really not think this save thing nor the skip dialog or cutscenes out very well

i want to love the game but end up playing 15 cent games more (and qfi is still my longest played game on steam)
not including my kids clicker games FACEPALM

[daventry]

Yea i know i have errors and the Auto Spelling thinks which and witch is ok instead of telling me that the verb im using for the text should be the latter.

For Ch1 and Ch2 i made almost 3 separate Walkthroughs for the 3 Routes, but Ch3 is giving me a headache, because there are only 2 Princesses in which i thought for a twist we would marry Hagatha or there should've been a third Princess.

Im going to Expand my Walkthrough since there are 4 Save Slots.
Vee Bravery
Neese Compassion
Vee Wisdom
Neese Wisdom
I think this is what The Odd Gentlemen intends us to do.

The save system sucks, thats one thing i can 100% agree with. Im forced to play each chapter starting and ending from there, so as you say, its gonna hurt to replay the entire Chapters when the full game comes out to follow said routes.

In Ch2 you do actually save everyone in the end, because the Merchant rides off with all the kidnapped villagers.

[Kaldire]

yea but in chap 2 for steam achievements
you must play twice

as for the bravery comp wisdom line it seems no matter what you pick say in the start of chap 1

it only matters what you do in the end, 
kinda like picking wisdom, then in the end showing compassion, the king changes his story by saying something like
"well I know I said being quick witted was the way to go, but in the end compassion won them over etc."
grandpa why did you tell me this when you picked this

as for saves

just backup the save game file (its just kqsave) then you have unlimited slots technically  like console vers have many more slots than 4..
(i think 12?)

anyway also the no skipping dialog  and cuts? esp on 2nd play.. very ughh

yea yea yea ive heard it,..

esp going same routes, I could see any dialog you havent heard before not skipping but ack

[Brainiac]

I do know there are people around here that consider KQ5 the best of the lot. For you all, lemme just let you know of something right at the start of Chapter 3.

Spoiler (hover to show)

There's an owl family.

You have to save the youngest child in the nest.

Said baby owl...

...has a vest and monocle.

And yes, if you thought AGDI's The Madness of King Graham was fun, you ain't seen nothing yet. Try and leave the owlet to his fate enough times and the results are HIGHLY amusing.

If you just want to see what I'm taking about, the first ten minutes or so of Paw's first episode covering the chapter should sate you.

thought thats what QFI was for!

hmmm rohem decides
should I blow it up orrr
loot it another way.. hmm

no lockpicks but I do have this nice magic orb that seems to explode when I toss it at something !

hmm pondering

this is just a platform game, nothing more its not even close to rpg which is sad.

i dont feel like im graham i feel like im someone controlling him
this is bad form.

IN QFI
I FELT like Roehm!

[daventry]

[Kaldire]

nah

I tried to get back into it..
made it to chap 2 and went

ughh facepalm

ill wait until its all over n done then . idk.. maybe?

[Brainiac]

<sigh> I knew this had to happen. Since timestamps won't carry over into embeds, click the link to skip to the "post-credits scene" of Paw's conclusion of Chapter 3...and prepare to groan.

[Kaldire]
