In all seriousness though, Telltale is never in a million years going to make King's Quest: The 3D Action RPG. It's just not going to happen. Telltale doesn't make those kinds of games. Even Telltale's most crappy Dragon's Lair clone wouldn't qualify as an action game of any sort. They are all still technically point and click games. Now, I wouldn't call them adventure games, either, but that's another argument. And then of course, there's the other reason, which is that it's a truly terrible idea. You've named two examples (Demon's and Dark Souls--two of my favorite games this generation, too, by the way) that have absolutely no resemblance at all to King's Quest, not even to Mask of Eternity. Completely different types of games with completely different play mechanics, barring the fact that they are all in 3D. And then of course, you've got the fact that Telltale doesn't make original concept games. They revive well-known licenses and suck as much money as they can out of them by playing on fans' nostalgia before dropping them. That's their whole business model.
