Title: A Few Plot Questions...
Post by: TheReturnofDMD on September 08, 2005, 06:10:23 PM
Hey


I have just a few questions regarding the plot:

1) Will we deal with the Land of the Dead and/or Dimension of Death again?

2) Will any background information such as the King's Quest novels and the KQ Companion be used, like the idea of Daventry's borders being the Old Wood etc?

3) Will Alhazred make an appearence in the game or any other Black Cloaks besides Shadrack?

4) How much will we know about Graham, Daventry, Serenia etc by the end of the game (i'm not talking about Graham's character, I mean his bio)?

5) Will any of the inconcsistencies of MOE be resolved in this game?

I'd only expect answers to 3 and 5, and not conclusive ones at that.

Emu's correct.  Plot-related questions never usually get completely answered, and with that being said:

Actually, this one I don't even know the answer to, so: :suffer:

:suffer:  Well, all I'll say is that Shadrack isn't the only villain you'll encounter in KQIX...  8)

You'll know tons more about each of the main characters by the end of the game.  One thing we've made certain is to give some depth to these flat characters, meaning not only is there a backstory, but the game itself is like a continuation of this story through puzzles, character interaction and different lands.  8)

I'm not sure what specifically you mean, but in general there wasn't much plot to MoE, so there isn't much to resolve from it.  The major elements from MoE, namely: Connor, Sarah, and the Mask of Eternity, play into KQIX's plot, especially the Mask.

She's not one of the main characters, so not really a large part.  But yes, she's in the game. ;D
