Then how come so many people today find it old and dated? How come so many people think that the current (well, almost current) games have much more to offer?

A timeless creating is one that always stays as good as it initially was. King's Quest does not fit that category.

Nacho, I want to suggest you nothing. I am not you, neither of us is. You are the only one who can make that decision for you. The important thing is not to regret what you have chosen.

Did I play it in 1984? Did I even live in 1984? Not according to my knowledge.

I can't play a game in 2003, and enjoy it because it was good in 1984. I didn't play it in 1984, so how can I judge? And besides, if a game is bad now, do I need to give it credit because it was good 20 years ago? Should I enjoy it, despite the fact that it is horribly flawed.

True classic creations never wither - they are timeless. Monkey Island managed to keep its charm, even after 20 years. 2001: A Space Odyssey didn't age a day since it was released back in 1968. Mozart's simphonies are all several level's above the current trash. But the first King's Quest, now, is old and dated. Is it really such a classic?

King's Quest is the first adventure game with graphics, animation and sound. It set a new era. I do not think that you should judge it like that.

We had a similar discussion in the Indy DVD thread. We can't judge a creationg today by the standards of yesteryear. Once, when it came out, it could have been all that - a true groundbreaking masterpiece. But today it isn't. Today, it seems old, dated and, quite frankly, bad.

While we are at it, please do not refer to him as Moses, Abraham, Isaac and David either.

Go home and masturbate...

Is this a recorded message? Have you no shame?

The only black and white movies I've seen that spring to my head are Dr. Strangelove and, err..., Schindler's List. So I am not much into old flicks. Aiming to fix the situation I downloaded Seven Samurai and Citizen Kane (I know I am evil) and will watch them soon!

There can be another reason the fight with the Crazy 88 is after the one with Vivica. That fight scene is obviousy the big scene of this movie, and big scenes need to come in the end.

Eric, it is a homage to old B-movies, it's somewhat obvious the main character has to easily win 3954954 warriors at once, even without the first chapter. And there is a Volume 2 for her to star in....
As for suspense, I think you can rest assured that the ending will be far from obvious with QT.

How come the Californians elected Arnold Schwarzenegger as their governor? Haven't they seen "The Terminator"? He is an evil robot sent back from the future to destroy humanity!

I have a feeling that seeing it within one week after Kill Bill will result in a horrible disappointment. And I'm going to do just that.

Dear DG,

Dear DG,
Why don't you like me?  :'(

This is quite a basic thing in all computer games - there is a basic goal the player needs to acheive, because otherwise, theoritically, there is nothing for the player to do.

20 isn't enough to pull of a hit series.

Dear DG,

I've seen the Matrix Reloaded recently, but unfortunately I failed to understand the ending. Can you please explain to me what the architect told Neo?
