Reminds me of drawing all the maps for the Sierra games back then.
Wish to still have them. Bummer!
It took me ages in QfGIII to draw one but I loved to do so.
Missing that in adventures nowadays.

Last game I did it was in Botanicula:

I used to draw maps like that.  I also used to translate sprites onto graph paper, pixel by pixel.  Somewhere I've got a whole book of 'em!  :)

A fellow mapper!  I am slowly digitizing all mine, replacing hand-drawn with screen-shot versions as much as possible- sometimes also pixel-by-pixel..

Another fellow mapper here.

I started out using GEM Draw Plus for DOS in the early 1990s, then migrated to Excel for Windows (works SO well at achieving perfectly aligned boxes and lines).  I still use Excel today!

I think we need to have an old-school mapping contest when QFI is released.  Whoever can map out the game in the most accurate and creative(!) fashion wins some kind of special prize.

That and the fact that you'd probably have to play the game multiple times to see the whole map...;)

Play-though #1: Play and just enjoy the game
Play-through #2: 'sketch' the layout (I used to use Excel too, but switched to Visio several years ago when I had to learn it for my work)
Play-though #3+: Screen-shots, at least two per screen so I can 'paint out' the avatar and any other 'undesirables' that I don't want in the finished product

Either that, or they will intentionally release QFI with a couple of screens/rooms missing on purpose, just so they can capitalize on the money-grab that is the current DLC craze.

Wanna to finish the game?  Then fork over the bucks for the missing parts!  People, Blackthorne's gotta a wicked-bad marmite addiction that his current income level simply cannot support!
