...except that the LSL series isn't a "Quest" game, either. I'd say either Gabriel Knight or LSL are my favorites, while my nephew is currently worshipping me for letting him have my King's Quest Collection, lol.

Firstly, the thread was initially titled "Quest Game" to which I brought his attention wasn't the right wording.

Secondly, define "Quest Series" then.

And good work SerialFreak for taking my advice on board about changing the name of the thread.

I sort of already defined it, and I don't really want to do it again. Fov also added to the description of what makes a Quest series. I'll just say that obviously the games with "Quest" in their name are part of a Quest series, and LSL could be considered a Quest series as well because of similar attributes to the others.

Right-o.

Who changed what now? When was the thread called Quest Game? I didn't call it that. Maybe you're thinking of the question in the poll. I say Quest Game in there.

Police Quest.
Always loved them.

PQ2 is my fave, then probably PQ3, then PQ1 - and PQ4 is my least favourite - probably because of the whole fact that its a new storyline,
no Sonny Bonds, no Lytton, etc.

Draco2.5 · 04-29-2004, 08:32 AM

Quest For Glory has and always will be my favorite Sierra series.

That reminds me, I still haven't played QFG 5 yet.

Jayel · 04-29-2004, 09:24 AM

LSL because I don't like games with the word "quest" in their title.

Hamburger making sequence in SQ4 was pretty cool though

I thought PQ4 was the best Police Quest game followed pretty closely by PQ3. PQ4 was pretty atmospheric and had a pretty cool storyline. PQ3 was the best game with the old characters though. I wonder why Sierra dumped the established storyline for the new story in Police Quest 4. (Not that it wasn't good though, it was awesome.

)

The burger stuff was pretty bad. Especially if you didn't know that you could skip it. That sequence pissed me off.

If you could fix it it would be nice.

King's Quest: Mask of Eternity was one of the first adventure games I've played, and I was totally into it, and so was my brother and father. Oh, I remember the start (and some various other spots)... They were so mystical and mysterious (oh my god how much I use that word here). Maybe I should install it again to see what it feels like today...

Deviant · 05-06-2004, 02:08 AM

Space is Awsome, Kings is Awsome!!

Monkey Island is Awsome..

SO many awsome games.. why oh why have you left us.....

Well the LSL series had a 'quest' theme throughout the series, whether it was to find true love or to just get laid whenever possible.

I started early and played the LSL games (well 1 through 3) when i was 9 years old, though that was moreso just for the trivia questions at the start of #1 & #3. But as i got older i started playing through the games. This was on Commodore Amiga... didn't play the PC versions until some years later. I eventually got the LSL Ultimate Pleasure Pack almost 3 years ago. I love the humour displayed throughout the series

Loved Police Quest, especially the first 3 - the letdown in a way with 4 as already mentioned, was that they didn't continue the Sonny Bonds story (though what can you do when you've eliminated the death angel & another Bains relative etc). Couldn't get into the Swat series, mainly because i think i only had the demo version of it that would only let do the old woman in the house scenario (its weird if it really is the demo as its on 4 cd's).

Space Quest & Kings Quest didn't appeal to me.

Roger Wilco is the protagonist in SQ.

I forgive you for not playing any of the Sierra classics if you are like 14 or younger.
