(Why Tierra Re-Makes Are So Great)
I couldn’t agree more that remakes (at least those like Tierra’s KQ2) are great. Here’s why:
Those of us who are longtime adventure gamers greatly miss having quality games come out that are driven by plot and not just twitch reflex. KQ2vga added a great deal of story to the game – which made it both familiar, and new at the same time. The music was top-notch and I had a great time playing it.
I think it’s remarkable that these fine folks have made their labor of love available to the rest of us.
Personally, I would love to see them do a totally orignal game – or at least enlarge the story on any future remakes they choose to do. We can hold on our original floppy disks and keep them “sacred” while still having a lot of fun playing the remakes.
