You have a data plan for your home internet? I'm so sorry.

One of my friends live up in the mountains in Oregon and the only way he can get internet is through a satellite provider with a data plan. It does happen in the US, though it's usually just the more isolated areas afaik.
So what if I am, huh? Anyways, I work better when I'm drunk. It makes me fearless! If I see a bad guy, I'll just point my sword at him and saaaaaaaaaay, "Hey! Bad guy! You're not s'posed to be here! Go home or I'll stick you with my sword 'til you go, 'Ouch! I'm dead!' Ah-ha-ha!" Ha-ha. *hic* See? Ain't no one gonna be messin' wit' ol', Benny!

Ouch! I didn't know that some places couldn't get internet. I thought it was plug in a cord and go.  ;]

Wow - thanks for the sympathy  :D  I can get internet easily enough - it just costs a bit, and being a miserly student I can only afford a cheap home internet plan - 2gb per month... pretty awesome eh   ;D

That's terrible, I would never survive under such conditions.

Thanks kindofdoon  :)  It's ok though - NZ has other attractions  8)

That's definitely true - you're pretty lucky to live in such a beautiful area.

Not just snakes...POIsonous snakes. XD

Yep it is very beautiful  :)  Drunkenmonkey you were joking right?  NZ has a distinct lack of snakes (poisonous or otherwise), scorpions, crocodiles and KQ fans!  We do have owls though  ;D

I'm not sure if any of this was brought up, but I wasn't too happy that alot of things were being bought with gold and how. The map I understood, the mermaids I dealt with (Poor things- they got a pretty necklace and lost it :( ) the lollies I got, but then everything else, specially the ferry guy was bought with money also. I've always liked how the King's quests didn't include gold that much except as a mundane item. I feel that if it can be avoided, it should be :( Otherwise, I'm very happy :) The game is fun to play. PArt 2 is better now there's more gaming stuff to do. The plot starting to unravel finally is going to make it an intence wait for part 3 >.< I hope I don't have to wait too long!  :-[

We're working on it like fiends, believe me.  And rest assured, Episode 3 is going to require quite a lot more flexibility and variety in the use and purposes of inventory items.

Sorry- I know that some of this is stuff that would've been fixed for Episode 3, It's just something that I noticed with the game. I wished that the Ferry wasn't bought out, rather his crew refused to sail or something else without payment. It made him seem less loyal to the crown. IT was the only thing I could fault thoguh. The Black widow was very creepy  :o Jollo's trick got a 'ZOMG' out of me XD And Prince Alexander is as charming as ever <3 I'm very glad that Silver Lining didn't fade off due to red tape :)

Welcome to the forums, Arkillian! Glad you're enjoying the game :)

There aren't actually that many puzzles that require using the coins in the game, but the way it shook out when the game was divided into episodes, they just all ended up in the same one, so it does look disproportionate. But yes, the puzzles coming up will see far less use of that handy bag of gold!

Hey- thanks :) I've been following on Deviantart, but that hasn't been updated. I got reminded of the game when a friend in Aussy commented on one of my King's Quest fan arts from 6 years back. I remembered how much I enjoyed playing the games and went back to them, then I remembered this game. I played the demo, but I was waiting for something to come of all the red tape D: I never realized that 2 episodes had been released without me knowing XD

It's cool- I figured it was a one episode scare. It was mostly a shock to me, that's all. I look forward to future episodes to see what happens with the plot :D I'm very interested to see how Alexander's interest in magic plays out (Not because I'm a diehard Alexander fangirl or anything <3 It actually is an interesting twist of his character for me)

I liked the play on the hole in the wall- second use for it <3

What was the first use?

To look through in KQ6 ^^; I never thought of it as an ACTUAL hole in the wall. I guess I didn't think enough about how cool that critter was. IT's an interesting touch :)



kindofdoon

Oh, yes, I thought you meant in TSL. Yes, agreed, it was a nice new twist.
