Episode 5 will be?

What will be there? Graham versus evils, etc


btw, King's Quest 2015 is a reverse-clon of TSL

reverse

TSL: sequel - old characters&place - slow dramathic story - old Graham
KQ: remake - new things - fast positive plot - young Graham

clone

TSL: the nightingale's children in his nest
KQ: the owl's children (ep3) in his nest

GrahamRocks!

...Why does it matter?

So what if TSL and the new KQ have some similarities? That doesn't detract from the fact that they're both good games.

And uh, I don't know if you've noticed but, Graham isn't going to stay young forever in the new game. He is aging, changing and maturing as time passes in each episode. And can you really call TSL!Graham "old", when he's like 40 something in that game? Sure, if KQ were a more realistic medieval setting, that probably WOULD be considered old in those days, but we know that he ages much more in both KQ2015 and Mask of Eternity and, if you really want to stretch it, AGDI's remakes, and that this is a fictional fun fantasy realm. This is Daventry, not Westeros.

Really? You're bringing up the fact that there's baby birds in both games and saying that totally makes it a clone? Right. Because that's the most important detail about both of them that nobody else has done before in a game. Again, so what? Cedric actually has a point, because he's the crux of the first puzzle in chapter 3. Sing Sing isn't really all that important besides being brought up once in the story, with a detail you probably could miss about it.

Also, we DO visit old locales in the new game. The Well, Daventry itself, The Enchanted Isles, Daventry Castle. It's just that we're seeing them from a new perspective. Which, you know, TSL does too. There's places we've never been able to visit before in there such as The City of the Winged Ones (no, not the throne room, I mean the actual city), what's behind and within the Hedge Maze on the Isle of the Beast, the Dryad's Grove on the Isle of the Mist, and of course details have changed since this takes place post 6, so the castle and islands have expanded and changed over the years.

Also, you REALLY think that asking when episode 5 is going to come out in a thread by itself is going to do anything? What will be there? Why should they spoil the surprises, hm?

In Episode 5, Graham travels to the dream world to try to save Alexander and Rosella. There will be things from Alexander and Rosella's dreams (or nightmares). That's about all I can say. :)

Which we already knew about and was clearly obvious from the ending of episode 4. Hell, that's the entire point of the quest in the first place- the only way to break such a spell is by reaching their dreams, as the Archdruid said back in episode 1.

Numbers

I would like to thank GrahamRocks for saying what I was thinking, albeit more diplomatically. Especially since the OP's post was nothing more than a mess of grammar and syntax errors. And the "KQ2015 is a 'reverse clone' of TSL" thing? Don't even get me started.
I have no mouth, and I must scream.

Yes, but the squirrel's name is now Princess Madeline of Avalon.

qwop unblocked. Thanks for your advice :P

GrahamRocks!

I'm very confused by that. What do squirrels have to do with what I just said?
