Telltale Games

*Majus* · 02/27/2011, 06:47 am

Hey! Just a quick comment that I like the game a lot!
I watched my dad playing the original game on the AtariST, when I was a kid, and I was so scared of Manannan (kinda the experience I had in the tunnels in »LeChucks Revenge«). And »kick cat« were one of the first english words I learned.

Anyway, I have a lot of fun playing the Redux-Version. It's pretty and has a great atmosphere (kudos to MusicallyInspired… it's beautifully creepy entering Manannans office, or reading recent Gwydions diary).

Also, I can't remember the last time I used pen and paper for an adventure game. So yeah, good work, having a lot of fun!
Now, if you'll excuse me, I still have to find some ingredients… good bye.

Oh, and, can somebody help me finding salt? Just salt… It sounds like it's the easiest thing to find… Did I miss something?

You get salt from the store. At least that was the answer in the original game, I haven't gotten far enough in the remake to find out.

You are right. They didn't change it for the remake

I am curious.Are most of the voices from the Netherlands since all of the AGDI remakes seem to have VAs from overseas despite the game is made by ppl in the US.

I saw quite a few Dutch sounding names in the credits.

I think there's only 2 or 3 people on the team who actually reside in the States. Not including me.

Well, I completed KQ3 redux and liked most of it. The added slave journal was nice, as was the extented village. The pirate ship was handeled nicely as well. The treasure island was okay, but expectionally great. Puzzles were a bit too easy there.

the only thing I didn't particulary like was the ending with magic pinball and added perilious journey to the castle. That was a huge meh.

Has the story in this version changed somewhat compared to IA's version?

MusicallyInspired · 02/28/2011, 07:59 am

The main plot is the same, there are embellishments made and characters fleshed out a little....some puzzles now have alternate solutions and there are also brand new areas and side stories that weren't in the original. Other than that, it's basically the same story.

I think only Stijn is from the Netherlands, although I think there were a few beta-testers from that area.

There're a few members from the US, Canada, Australia, Netherlands, I'm from South Africa and I believe there was 1 from England. The beta-testers were spread a bit more widely.

RevolverBobcat · 02/28/2011, 01:21 pm

Aha. TamTu Bui (voice of The Father) is also from the Netherlands, so what's in a name?

Don't mind me. I misread the post again. *sigh* I noticed now that the post was about the voice actors. LOL! *smack* Feeling stupid.
