Favorite Kings Quest moment???

100th post woohoo!

I don't care for this rediculous argument, just don't tell people to shut the fuck up. Thanks.

And Nikolas, people will 'open up' to you if they find you interesting and worthwhile to talk to, and that doesn't take a constant barrage of posts and pms. Besides, whether or not you'll become friends with people here isn't the sole point of the message board. There could be discussion for the sake of discussion and there's just exchange of relevant information. You don't have to chime in on everything that's being said on every thread.

Esper: There was just one more thing in your post that made me wonder.

I, like Pablo, argue a whole lot.

Me arguing a lot? Nah, I really don't. In this thread I did, but otherwise I really don't argue much. If you think so then you most apparently don't know me very well. BUT as you said, let's leave this be now.

Even though I have argued with you before, doesn't of course mean I'd have anything against you. And hey, we did found an agreement every time didn't we? Just like now.

Thank you, it was nice to argue with you. Let's flame each other more some other time in some other thread, okay?

Ok this has gotten silly, if any further posts are not relevant to your favourite King's Quest moment, they'll be deleted.

I've always had a soft spot for KQ4 - it was one of the first games my parents bought for us (my sisters and I). I remember that when we first got it we couldn't run it at first because it needed 768 kB of ram

A lot of people have complained about the arbitrary deaths, but that was the early days of adventure games: when men were men and adventure game characters died all the time

I liked the kind of "free-roaming" feel to the KQ games, where you are in an area and you explore. Lots of games are much too linear. Some of the puzzles in KQ4 were really though (invisible bridle anyone?) - so much so that it took me ten years to solve!

My favourite Kings Quest moment was when in Kings Quest 3 you had to sneak around the wizard and eventually beat him...

The desire to defeate the wizard was strong because he prevented me from exploring the world and he made me do things that were boring, I was not told that he was evil, I just grew to hate him because he made me feel like his slave. Then, when you finally best him, amazing sense of accomplishment and revenge.

Extremely well done bit of gaming there... Too bad it's an isolated event in a sea of standard adventure game puzzles.

Just found a copy of King's Quest VI at a "Good Will" store. Paid a measly $3.89 for it... hope it's worth it?

Heh, I should think so, rharpe. IMHO, KQ6's easily the best of the series.

My favourite moment is when Rosella, in KQ7, gives the dragon back his flame. Mostly because of the music.

Gimme a break, I was a kid. It didn't take much to get to me.

On a side note, the music from the forest/bridge rooms in that same game are still among the most beautiful I've heard in an adventure game.
