Adventure Game Scene of the Day - Tuesday, 8 March
Happy International Women’s Day to all female members of the forum! 
(no way I’m late!!)
As for King’s Quest, they lie it’s working on XP. It’s not. I’m glad for all the praise the game gets, but I’m not touching my XP-based machine until I finish all the older games first. Yeah, tough luck King’s Quest!

Hey, there was only one game that was the reason for me to upgrade the machine - Mask of Eternity, when I bought Voodoo 3dfx! Why would I want for this game… wait, this IS a King’s Quest game! But hey, we’re talking drastic measures here, downgrading from the best operating system ever.

Ok, when i visit you i will bring you one of my Cheapest guitars and you give that Ex Machina!, deal? 
Don’t know what you mean by a “cheap guitar”. You can buy a Les Paul knock off that’s made in South Korea, and it sounds great and performs well, and is a lot less expensive that a Gibson. But I would never call it cheap. Just less expensive! 
For whom the games toll,
they toll for thee.
I’d almost say it’s worth upgrading just for that game. I was very skeptical when I bought it (got the first chapter during a sale at $0.99) but it was way better than expected and I bought the full season pass straightaway.
The first chapter starts a bit slowly and I think it would have been maybe better without the first sequence in the dragon cave but after that the game is really good. I’d say it’s the best game to come out in the last 5 years (even beating the Journey Down chapter 2 which held the previous crown for me). So if ever there was a game to upgrade for, it’s this one.
The only real complaints I have is the save system (I wish there was a normal save system which would allow more exploration, as it is I have to copy over my save slot to backup my save like if it were console game) and dialogue skipping in the first episode (they added it to the second chapter so at least they listen).
Interestingly too, it’s the first time I see an episodic game done really right. The first two episodes are pretty much independent from each other and feel more like separate games than episodes. So, waiting between episodes is not so much of a pain and it’s possible to start playing now.

you ve got me corrected Tim, exactly!
...and i was talking Mexican strat , really! great guitar, the only difference (from the US) if noticeable; is heard on Massive Cabinets, and to tell you the truth, no way i have this adapted ears (to this kinda of sensitivity) to tell that this is outta own experience, but i do trust a great guitarist who once told me this little hint.
I have a Mexican Tele. The Mex costs $599 US. The US costs a whole lot more. Played them both. Hard for me to tell the difference. That said, I have a really great technician that makes everything sound great.

Hey, I wouldn’t sell my Mexican maple Strat for any money! No way, amigo! Just like I wouldn’t give my XP away.
(and just how the International Women’s Day thread turned into the masculine guitar talk?

Thread drift. And Great thread drift. Other guitars are my Agile 3010 Les Paul copy which I wouldn’t trade for anything. I have a PRS Angelus acoustic. Also made in South Korea, And a Cordoba thin-neck/thin body nylon acoustic that is make in China.
As long as they play well…..

Thank you, but that was a while ago. You must have walked into a crop circle (in March?!?) and lost three days of time.

Wait, I AM in Belgium…

Maybe this time I can be strong, but since I know who I am, I’m probably wrong. Maybe this time I can go far, but thinking about where I’ve been ain’t helping me start. - Michael Kiwanuka

I’ve never played any of the KQ games so I don’t mind!
