Great, thanks for the replies. I have the old KQ collection discs that go up to 7, so I'll try and install them.

Thanks for the advice, everyone.
I played through it. Very mixed bag. Kq6 was definitely the pinnacle.
I think a lot of the distaste came from the awful animation. Poor Roberta Williams, you know she must've felt bad at some of the subpar material that was in KQ7. The voice acting was decent, but the bizarre Looney Toons slapstick and horrible artwork really detracted from the overall story. Good music, though. Mark Seibert always brings his best.
It's pretty obvious that a lot of 90s game studios must've outsourced to the same cheap animation studio, as they got the notorious Zelda CGI games as well.
