This was a toughie... but I voted for #3. I always found it kind of ridiculous that a game maker wouldn't have any control over their own creations, anyway! I mean, in what other creative industry does that happen?

I would like to state that #4 came in a close second, just so I can give some love to you guys, as well my buddy Colin, Josh, and the rest of Colin's troupe over at SQ7. Of course, if we're going to squeeze all that development into two weeks, we're going to need like, some crazy time accelerator thingy or something! ;)

Peace & Luv, Liz

I voted #3 too.
It would be nice if the creators could choose what to do with their rights.

I answered "1. Sierra comes out with a new KQ game that is true to the series," but I want to add, "and hires the entire staff of KQ9 to work on it so that they can get paid for their work, and calls the new game 'Kings Quest X.'"

Although this wasn't one of the choices, I'd also like to see Akril's KQ9 come out.  Then I could add to the above answer, "and Sierra recognizes Akril's KQ9 as an official co-King's Quest IX and publishes a new Kings Quest Collection that includes both the Phoenix KQ9 and Akril's KQ9 as official members of the Series."

But perhaps one should not wish for so much happiness.

that would be just dreamy :P <3

I dont think "$ierra" (as copycat has named it before :P) would care much about about us, since we all know sierra is now part of vivendi and it all has seriously trasnformed what it was once into what we have today which its completly of side track of what they used to be :/

I have to add thats so sweet the support, even though it does sounds so dreamy (sort of like -too good to be true- :P), Its so great to know ppl like the project, and thats why we just keep on working :)

Thanks a lot for that feedback fluxmaster :)

I voted for #3 too!  Selling the rights to the game creators does sound great!  Although, selling them to us would be even better.  :P

Also, please explain what you want to check.

Ofcourse Roberta would have open-sourced the rights to King's Quest so you shouldn't have to buy them. :P

Quote"Roberta Williams comes to help out with KQ9." - That subject was brought up before and rejected because of the "artistic difference of opinions" that might ensue, wasn't it?
While this could be a possibility, Josh Mandel is helping out with SQ7, and it seems to be going okay. It never hurts to have some experience behind you. Of course, this far into the creation process, she wouldn't have much story input, just artistic help and direction, really...

Well, the reason that the SQ7 bit with Josh is going well is because he's been the head writer essentially from the get-go... he has gotten to think up the plot and everything. If he had come in later, when the game's direction had already been at least partially decided by someone else, that might have possibly been a whole other ball of wax. (shrug)

Peace & Luv, Liz

This is the first I've heard of another game... :D
I wish I had found this all out sooner. :\

I voted for Sierra to make another game... true of course, to the series... :}

This is true, but in my opinion, it never hurts to have experience on your side in the facet of anybody, no matter what their function is. As a matter of fact, Josho himself consulted for us for a while at the beginning. He doesn't anymore, but he did. I personally think the more the old guys are in the mix, the better the game has the potential to be. I'm not saying we can't do it ourselves, just that it's always good to have someone who knows the creators help steer it in the direction it should be going.

Kurt: I'm not saying that it wouldn't be cool to get input from the creators... after all, they know where they were going with the whole series. :D But it has to be a creator who's not going to mind a bunch of "amateurs" playing around with their "baby". Some creators are open-minded enough, some wouldn't be.

Say - Haha Yeah. ;} Sorry, dollface. I'm sure y'all will do a wonderful job and I can't wait to see the end result.

Actually, I'm glad some one finally did do something. :} Just wish I'd have come across it all sooner.

Mind if I ask what all is done?

Welcome to the forums, d00dle_f0x!  :D

That's a pretty loaded question.   ;D You should actually make a new thread in the General forum to ask it.  In the mean time, you can check the last progress-related thread over here.
