Game Interface

[Storm]

I don't remember if I've asked this before, but what kind of interface are you planning for the game?

[Cez]

very similar to KQ6's

with some adds-on that will be soooooo fun

[Storm]

Yes please!
Add the "torture Connor" button!!!! it will be very useful

Also add the "sudden death" like in the Lemmings  

[Oldbushie]

Hmmm... I'd like a "pray to almighty god" button, so God can drop little vague hints when you're really stuck.

Like... "go find the green vegetable north of the castle, put it on your head, dance like a monkey, and push the red button on your crown at the same time", only maybe with a true hint hidden with the false hints.

So, is Connor going to be in the game?  We SHOULD be able to torture him!  And is there going to be a demo???  My goodness, I'm in here all the time, but I feel so left out!!!

Unfortunately, Connor will be in the game  
However, the promised to give him such a make-over that even I am going to like him (I doubt that, though :-/ ).

They said there's going to be a demo, but they won't release it to the public, so don't hold you breath there

[koko_99_2001]

Well, I believe the main reason I don't like Connor is because he was so violent in MOE, but I guess that if they give him a make-over and if KQ9 isn't violent (which, from I heard, it's going to be like the other games), I guess I will like him.  And too bad about the demo.  Or maybe they will only let those of us in the forum play the demo! (I'm not holding my breath)

Yeah, we SHOULD be rewarded for hanging around here for so long, anticipating a game that would be released MAYBE in a year...

[Say]

hahaha! hey what happened with the "no violence and killing on kq games"? hahahaha

and yeah!! accept it! connor is somewhat part of kq story, so stop hating him so you can embrace the amazing new stuff that kq9 has for you

ive spoken! ):c

[Say]

BUT... I think bushies idea is kinda cool, thats kinda interesting feature...

[Storm]

Say, about the "no violence and killing" - Connor started it, so I don't mind finishing it (and him) off

[Storm]

Interface question again -
Regarding the "Talk" option (assuming that there will be one) - will you be using topic lists (like in VGA QFG) or just one click conversation (like in KQ5, 6,7)?

[Cez]

A mix of both.

some conversations will be like old KQ, but most of them will be topic-based. There's a lot to explain around in this game

[Say]

NO! there wont be "sudden death" button/feature anyways Storm!

let it goo storm! let it goooo

[Storm]

Ok, but only if you add the "torture Connor" button... that's one no game should be without!

[Oldbushie]

Maybe a Connor voodoo doll!

Just hide it in a special place though as an Easter Egg, it shouldn't affect the main flow of the game...

[Say]

aaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
hahaha you people are insane!
give up no torturing in kq! no!

[koko_99_2001]

Oh well, no torture.  As long as he's not as bloodthristy as he previously was, I guess I'll be ok with Connor.

Perhaps I shouldnt say anything here yet , but this isnt gonna be like MOE at all, I mean this is a game with an interface better than that one, and actually logic inside the kq lines -with- connor, I really believe they did a nice job fitting in connor on this game, is not  like MOE at all, it IS a -new- kq... but Its not at all clueless like that last kq, i thin it brings the old main features in a new way which is certainly appealing.

[Storm]

Maybe just a wee little Easter Egg where you can make Connor walk off a ledge or something like that? they did it to Alexander in KQ6, and Connor deserves that treatment much more
