Back to Eath time, take #2

Vildern · June 09, 2003, 09:23:12 AM

Ohoy, my first thread here.

Well, if only to balance things, I wanted to say that I have no doubt this game will be fantastic. More power to you.

Sierra-like: "I am sure that we will enjoy playing it, as much as you enjoy making it"

The screenshots look great. Actually, they remind me of an old adventure game that I just loved: "Fable".

Someone in another thread said something about: "Only - Tierra - can - do - it - fan". Remember that only a small percentage is like that

Even if it takes 1 year... 2 years... 3 years... 4 years... be sure that we will be here to play it!!

lol Take your time with this high quality project.

Not too much time though!

Thanks for having confidence in the team, Vildern! I have the same attitude as you, I don't care how long it takes as long as it eventually gets completed! I'll be waiting.

Don't worry copycat, my departments are currently working on some nice things too.

Heheh I can't give out any clues

, but I think you guys will like it when it's done!

You have departments now? Sheesh, this thing is bigger than I thought.

MangoMercury · June 10, 2003, 03:02:33 PM

Yes! Please complete it! But don't take the next 20 years... Don't rush it either! WE LOVE YOU, KQ9 TEAM

KatieHal · June 10, 2003, 11:24:56 PM

Right now, the aim (as mentioned in the Inventory spread) is for late 2004. We're working on it! And we've had departments for a while, copycat:)

Thanks for the support guys!!!

copycat · June 11, 2003, 01:54:44 PM

Katie, I was referring to the fact Yonkey had departments.

KatieHal · June 11, 2003, 02:32:57 PM

Ahhhh....I see now:)

Yonkey · June 11, 2003, 03:52:50 PM

LOL I don't have departments. By "my departments" I mean the departments that I am in i.e. the PR and Web Team.

Hehehe, no one works under me. At least not yet!

lol j/k

Say · June 11, 2003, 06:52:57 PM

well Im shocked by the irony of this thread in compare with the first one lol, Im glad there are more ppl supporting the development of the game than pesimist about it.
Im very glad for all the comments I bet everyone from the team is as well, so welcome all the new people and seriously thanx, even though the game wont be released just like katie said till 2004, kq9 is alive and kicking

Oldbushie · June 11, 2003, 10:19:40 PM

It looks like 2004 will be a good year.

Even if it isn't done by Christmas, I'm looking forward to new screenshots and "subtle hints" until the game is complete. Besides, I think adventure games are making a bigger comeback than I thought. At least ten major adventure games are being released between this fall and next year, with Uru: Ages Beyond Myst and Sam and max Hit the Road Again being among them. I miss good adventure games... when I find an excellent one, I am usually all set for a month and then i go buy a new one.

Keep going strong, KQ9 team! We need you!

Did you expect anything else? If we were pessimistic about the game, why would we keep coming back here? That's why I don't get beernutts, why does he keep posting if he doesn't think this will lead to something? Maybe, somewhere deep inside...

DragonSlyr · June 13, 2003, 03:54:07 PM

MAYBE NOT! He might just be doing this to stop the game or maybe critisize you people to have a better game.

Yonkey · June 13, 2003, 04:00:53 PM

Well, he's not the one who decides on whether the game continues or not, so don't worry about that.

As far as critisizing the team in order to make a better game... that's possible.

To me, he just seemed like a pessimistic person.

Yonkey · June 14, 2003, 08:02:12 AM

Oh! LOL Well that's not gonna happen!

From all the stuff I've seen, heard and know from the not so distant future (from various directors), this game is going to be really advanced. The technology used is very up-to-date and professional, plus the people working on it are experts in their fields (not to mention fans!). I'm sure when KQ9 comes out, it'll be a definite contender with other games out there, and I personally believe it'll be better than the majority too. Heheh, I can't wait!

Just because I'm pessimistic doesn't mean I don't like the idea of the game. If it's not finished, I hope they atleast release some of it (but, in my experience, that doesn't happen). Regardless, I grew up on KQ and sierra, and i'm interested in any fan projects out there. AND, I'm pessimistic about them all, except Tierra who actually has put out 2 games.

Say · June 14, 2003, 08:04:37 PM

we all love tierra, yet tierra never adventured themselves to do a whole 3d game yet, have they?

And you have every right to be pessimistic about every fan project until it has produced something, likt Tierra has. If I may ask, where you pessimistic about Tierra when they were still only talking about Royal Quest? If I understand your reasoning correctly, you should've been. If not, then you are inconsequent (?sp), and you have two standards.

However, although you may be pessimistic about this game, you should dismiss it just because it isn't finished yet. Until the KQ9-team says it failed (and I don't think that will happen), it hasn't and we should treat it as such.

PS. I think most people on this forum are the complete opposite of you, thus optimist(ic), me included.

I was pessimistic about Tierra before They released KQ1 remake. I was upset they canned Royal Quest, I was looking forward to it.
