VampireNaomi Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Agreed; GF is not the only excellent adventure game out there. I'll get my hands on the first Broken Sword and try it once I manage to save a couple of extra euros. And Gabriel Knight 3 gave me the same fantastic feeling as GF did.

VampireNaomi Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 My home lies hidden in the northern soil of Finland. I hear you have a very interesting language, Gray Hound. Could you write a sentence or two so that I can see what it looks like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Virus Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 I'm against a GF 2, although the first one is one of my favourite games, I believe that sequels may ruin games (and/or movies), because usually they are worse than the first or too similar to it. But if a second game is released I would like it to be about a new character who has died recently, and is sent to the land of the dead, but in there he is "guided" by a corrupt salesman, who is taking advantage of him & so he starts his journey... It would be nice if the game starts where GF1 ended, so the LSA would be able of helping you out, you would see LSA posters on the streets, and you will hear legends about Salvador & Manny, and maybe eventually get to meet people who knew him, like Eva or Glottis. It would also be nice if, while you are in Rubacava looking for a job, someone (like Maximino) offers you a job on an old Café, that has been out of use for 3 years.

VampireNaomi Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 They must be excellent games then. Tomorrow I will be selling my old clothes in a jumble sail and I will hopefully get enough money to get Broken Sword 1 for myself, and Grim Fandango for my Brazilian friend. She's going to get the best Christmas present ever! Ah, a little more and I'll stop being a Reaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Virus Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 I love that poster, but I had nothing to do with it, it is from a GF fansite. Great poster though. PS: seems that you like learning languages VNaomi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anti Merge Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Bit late on but I may as well ad a reply. I wouldnt like to see a sequel, I loved rim fandango dont getme wrong, but for the following reasons I am in the anti sequel group: 1) I felt that a lot was established withing the game such as the characters ways and mannerisms, if a 2nd game came out and altered any of these or changed our views on the characters it may take away from the first. 2) There would have to be a remake of some parts of the old game, perhaps hector lives, then we lose the feeling that we have finished it all, like when we hear him die, thats the underworld saved, but if he came in a second then thats that feeling gone. 3) A minior point but if the voice actors changed then it would make a difference to hardcore fans auch as myself. But if they could make a 2nd that thkes place in the first such as, longer segments like in the petrified forest, or the underwater part, just more so adding puzzles and revealing more Information. I never really thought about it much so thats just a rough Idea:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nippon Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 As I wrote in the "End of the line"-topic, I once made a script for a prequel. The main character was new, just as all the other important characters. But guest-stars is of course there. Such as a travel agent named Salvador Limones.

Tall Guy Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 you know, this question has come up many times over the years, and i have to say that im all for another chapter in the grim story. but, judging by the current market for adventure games it looks unlikely. adventure games just dont sell any more, and at the end of the day thats what it comes down to. personally i think a prequel would be the way to go if another was to be made. like people have sed, theres an intersting story to be told as regards mannys life before...umm death...

kitmit13 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 people keep saying there won't be a gf2 but they have no hope I mean I don't think dominio is dead cause after being through coral crushes he is still in one peace he could get his revenge and get to the ninth underworld or something and tim can make it can't he buy the rights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireNaomi Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I think it's safe to assume that Domino is in several pieces and won't be coming back. Manny even made a comment about it later in the game. Manny: When it comes to shreds, Dom is the expert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't keep me from bringing him back in my fanfic, but shhh. It's a fanfic. He's pretty much gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santiago C. Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I have already given my ideas in my thread, but most of the people doesnt apreciate Manny, and, well, thats a shame. I want a GF 2 with manny, if not it won´t be Grim Fandango. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireNaomi Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 It's not that people don't appreciate Manny. I believe he's the most loved character in the game, and he deserves that. It's that people don't like the idea of continuing something that was perfect. You know, even if chocolate is good, you'll end up sick if you keep eating too much of it. Manny's story is finished, there is nothing else for him. The only way I could see GF2 working is introducing a brand new character with a new past, personality and goals.

Grim Tomato Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 What are your ideas on the next possible Grim Fandango? First off I'd probably say that the best way to go is to make a presequel to the oringinal. Wouldn't it be great to see how Manny got into this afterlife and the amazing story behind it? Second idea is probably what happens right after they get on the number nine and into heaven or whatever is there. Chaos? Hell? Heaven? Rebirth! Manny could be born again. Sounds great. Third idea I have could be a side story on any of the characters in the game. I'm in agreement with idea one and two. GF is a fabulous game, and I think they wrapped it up nicely; and I'd hate to see it diluted with sequel after sequel and run into the ground. A pre-GF would be great.
