@ SweetDalilah: "I am not very pleased that you didn't know his name."

I'll promise I'll replay the first Runaway soon!

I had my character just a few days ago, so...I'll pass my turn.
You can choose another one, or whoever wants!

Well gray pierce, was pretty close with Gabbo too. It would have been Gabbo if I didn't think of Saturn first. So he can post a new one if he wants. If not then everybody else is welcome.

@kate me: I also plan on playing Longest Journey first again, and then Dreamfall, cause I forgot everything.

It's a nickname given to him by one of the other main characters and no it's not general Grassiento though that would be appropriate. It's also not meant to be funny but insulting

Nope and it's not any other comedic game. In fact it's the only game I've played without a single shred of humour in it. Wich is good because it would totally ruin the atmosphre of this great game

Hope that helps

I'm not quite sure, cause I haven't played them in a while, but I'll give another go. I'm not remembering much humor at all in any of these:

Paradise or Sinking Island (both by Microids)

I like the first one better, except the ending! AGAIN!

Neither
Btw: The ending of Paradise is typical for Sokal and a common trend in European graphic novels (the game was based on the equally named graphic novel series by Sokal)

Hint: think a lot darker and moodier than any of Sokal's games

(Except that after the point corresponding to the game's ending, the graphic novel goes on for another 10 pages, giving a markedly different tone to the ending.)

Crap! Guess I'll have to read them again. I was more generally speaking as it is a common theme in Euopean graphic novels to end rather sudden leaving some storylines dangling.

You got it Fantasysci5! It's Jonathan's nickname given to him by Cliff

Wonder what we'll get next. Not too many character in Jonathan Boakes games for as far as I know

Sorry. lol

Okay, the character really does think he/she is like a God, treating other people like his/her subjects.
