I've just bought Longest Journey this week. By the look of things I won't be finished till next year which is perfect timing for Dreamfall

With games like Shadow of Colossus and Civilization 4 on the way, I was really hoping to play and finish Longest Journey within a week or 2

We've only been following this game for two years. And it's #1 on our Hype-o-Meter (bottom of the home page). Anyway, here's the official Dreamfall site and a fan site.

Haha, thats funny.

Well I love the action, as long as there is an equal blend of Action & Adventure I'm happy. I hate games that focus entirly on puzzles or entirly on action. I QFG had a great balance of action & puzzle solving.

Sorry, meant to define action in adventure games as unique, logical puzzles and quality conversations. Not the inane chattering that was in TLJ.

For example : "What made you like me when we first met" in TLJ and the Still Life cookie puzzle. As connoisseurs of the genre we have a right to be more demanding

Oh please let that be the case. Maybe they should implement a gaffer tape option?

I never considered that inane chatter. Okay at times it got lengthy. But it really gave you a lot of backstory on the characters and it made me care about them and what happened. Some of that dialogue (especially in the art gallery) was very profound and intelligent in my opinion.
