First accidental death! XD

W00T! Which one was it! (In spoiler tags, if you please)

EDIT: Please note, I have now made a thread for all discussions of the deaths. That can be found here.

Just finished my first rune through of episode 1. Not very hard but fun and I love the ending.

I think I am going to get all the King's Quest games. I have the 8th but I never got very far in it.

The 8th game can be hard, especially if your not accustomed to fighting games like that. It certainly took me a while. The main reason for that was because of all the bugs and the fighting itself.

And yes, episode 1 is pretty short and not that hard, but I can tell you that Episode 2 is much different in that regard.

Oh cool.

I played the 8th game when I was like 8 years old. The game scared me so much.

The biggest gameplay issue with KQ8, being more of a combat game than adventure game: the inability to strafe! Now go download KQ1 to 7 (www.gog.com would be a good place to get them), tell everybody to leave you alone for a week, and get desperately addicted ;).

If you can't afford them on GOG then you probably won't be able to anywhere else, that price is a steal.

Just found one for the first 7 games for 7 bucks. I might buy it.

Just make sure the games work. The GOG.com games are all guaranteed to work. Getting them elsewhere may require some technical knowledge.

Yes, that's the main part to watch for - newer systems have a lot of trouble running some of these older games unless you know a decent amount about tweaking them.

The Kings Quest games are the only reason I fight like mad to keep my old ME computer running.

If only it were dial-up... That would probably make this go even faster. I'm at college, so it's the network here that's doing it. There's probably a couple hundred people all connected to the internet at once. The internet also likes to crash on me at any given moment. I swear, this internet connection will be the end of me... And I'm in a web design major! Can you say ironic much!

My internet is pretty bad, and it's just at my house.

I was down to 56k at times downloading.  mostly in the low 60 range.  took hours.
