Au contraire...I don't know a fan who doesn't like finding all the death scenes. :P

And of course, this classic:

I was actually watching the death scenes through game-by-game recently.  I feel they're an integral part of King's Quest, as well as the alternate endings!  My favourite is in KQIV when Rosella marries Edgar - it's fun to imagine how things would pan out for her.

I also found this video.

And yes, I too hope for some sort of Cedric easter egg.
This is Nifty, Royal Heir.

I'm like, an adult now or something? Sounds fake, but okay.

I like the one where outside of Mordack's castle, he falls approximately 2 feet to his death. :P

And then Birdy can replace him!

*shudders* Does anybody else find the voice of Connor in KQ2+ utterly annoying?

The scary thing about this is... someone could actually make a montage out of the death scenes for upcoming episodes of Silver Lining too!

And it's not going to be me, because I'm not into that.

Oh man, I've watched that video a million times!  I think I might even have it Favorited. ;]  Trust me, that just proves your loyalty!

No! Death scenes are part of the fun in the series. I love reading the puns afterwards.

One of the staples of most all of Sierra's adventure games are the death sequences. They're just so integral to the experience. You can't say you've played King's Quest or any Sierra adventure game until you've died. Several times. I love the space quest deaths particularly. They are just too funny...

And that video is just too awesome for words. Maybe it's just my darker side, but I love the screams when Graham falls... My friends tell me I have issues. I'm starting to believe them now XD ROFLOL

I've always been partial to the death scenes in Quest for Glory.... for some strange reason.
