That’s right. Me, and 4 others are working to remake the Mask of Eternity! Check out our website please! http://kq8project.tk and please ask questions, I would love to answer, both here, or on our forums! To answer some questions that I predict will come at me, I am making the game in AGS, it it won’t have gore, it won’t have the same combat system, (it might not have any) it’s been in development since august. Anything else, ask, comment here, and check out our site, and forums!

I’ve been watching Skidddog playthru of KQ8 recently on YT. He does a decent job of it, broken down into 12-15 minute segments. There was one frustrating puzzle in the “lava” realm that probably needs a redo (it’s the only part he had to fast-forward thru, since it was so much trial and error to solve — but it was really funny when he showed the “I just backflip” to help thru certain other puzzles, I’m curious if that trick was intended by the designers; maybe so, since they took the effort to add the backflip at all).
My last KQ game was KQ6 — after that I went to college and just got too busy for games for several years (except Ulima9, I made time for that one). So I appreciate being able to watch these walkthru’s during an afternoon workout. During the walkthru Skiddog does talk about a couple flaws in the game – like having to go to first person mode to avoid some glitches and freezes.
I’d say keep the gore – while I was a bit shocked when he had the sword and sliced a creature right in half – well, that’s Sierra pushing the envelope 😀
Overall I enjoyed watching KQ8, it wasn’t a bad game (aside from the glitches — Ultima9 released with horrible glitches as well, the game’s initial release was literally a broken unbeatable game; they had a downloadable patch a few months later). A remake would be nice, focused on the story — I’d like to learn more about that Ice Queen, for instance. “dropped my scepter” – yeah sure, mmhmmm.
