Both have their advantages and disadvantages. I kind of like the point and click because figuring out the right thing to type was sometimes just SO frustrating because if one word was off...oy!

Come to think of it, I kind of started in the earliest sort of point and click there was, with The Black Cauldron - it was choose an action of say, use and do, and picking the items in your inventory you wanted use. There was minimal typing in it. I prefer normal text parser to that though.

Welcome to the board!

Thanks

, When I started my First run into adventure gaming on my 8088 I didn't even have a mouse, I never knew a point and click game till around QFG3.

But then again, in parser-interface you could always 'look around' in the room you were in and get an idea of what was particular about that room. In pnc you just have to move your cursor around and and click on the various items. You can't get a general description anymore. :-/
Yes, LSL1 on XT!

I liked to do naughty and crazy stuff when I got my old type-face computer games, I typed in cuss words, words to kill, kiss or kidnap the people in the games. I liked the responses when you typed in cusswords in kq3 and 4.

Yeah, typing in odd stuff is fun. Like typing in CHEAT on SQ2 to cheat (it doesn't work for me though, I wonder why), and Holy S*** to cheat at the slots in the origial SQ1.

And there's the imfamous KQ 2 one, WHAT IS GRAHAM LAST NAME. (many sites say FIRST instad of LAST, proof that people copy each other, although typing in FIRST instead of LAST DOES in fact generate the same response, but that isn't the point.

Also, try KISS HAGATHA and other such nonsene, you get odd responses! It's great!

Rosedragon · May 01, 2003, 02:46:18 PM

Those were so much fun. I like what happened when you tried to kill the monk. I liked the message you got when you clicked the net on Graham, (Tierra's kq2) but I wish he was into those "tie-up" games, then we could really have some fun. I'm naughty. *Looks around for a prince to kidnap.*

KatieHal · May 01, 2003, 02:52:08 PM

What was the message from asking what grahams last name was?

For some reason my current computer has issues installing the KQ collection. :-/

TakariFreak · May 01, 2003, 03:33:31 PM

The reply you get is "Cracker" (Graham Cracker, get it?)

KatieHal · May 01, 2003, 03:34:23 PM

Oh, boo! That's a terrible joke. I'd laugh at it, but it's still terrible!

KatieHal · May 01, 2003, 03:35:00 PM

Just to be a pain, my new goal is to beat Takari to Royal Heir! haha!

copycat · May 02, 2003, 04:24:31 PM

And so you have, happy now?

Cez · May 02, 2003, 10:30:30 PM

gosh, they fight like cats and rabbits!

oh wait, they are!

copycat · May 03, 2003, 01:44:08 PM

Which cat are you referring to?

Rosedragon · May 04, 2003, 07:31:38 PM

Cats and rabbits are gosh-darn-cute adorable creatures! I have a cat, and I found a rabbit that isn't as scared of people as most normal rabbits in my flowerbed. I was going out for a walk, and I was walking around the house, and I saw the little bunny. I was really close to him, I was surpised that he just stood there and looked at me instead of running away. My mom said she was watering the yard, she saw him and talked to him, and he still didn't run away. I used to have a wooded plot next door, the neiborhood developers cut it down and built a house, now I have new neighbors and the animals don't have anywhere to go.
Only problem is the cute little bunny will ruin our plants. I feel sorry for all the animals that are getting pushed out of their homes. Florida panthers are getting hurt the worst, their almost estinct.

Oldbushie · May 04, 2003, 10:45:23 PM

Good lord, there are panthers in Florida? I've only heard of the alligators and crocodiles...

We have to find a better way for people and animals to coexist... Maybe treehouses?

copycat · May 06, 2003, 02:39:34 PM

Treehouses for panthers? I don't think so...

All they need, is a bit of space, just like the elephant and a whole lot of other (near extinct) animals. Unfortunately, humans move in to where they once roamed, they have nowhere to go, so it's bye bye and on the road to extinction even further.

Oldbushie · May 09, 2003, 09:29:39 PM

I suppose you're right... if people lived in treehouses the panthers would still be able to get them easily...

How about underground with sturdy glass roofs to see the sun?

copycat · May 10, 2003, 11:08:38 AM

For the humans or the panthers?
