The Adventurer Posted May 20, 2002 Posted May 20, 2002 DAMN YOU LUCASARTS!!! DAMN YOU TO HELL!!!! I want adventure!!! Not this godam Galaxies port! what are you guys thinking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
guybrush guy Posted May 20, 2002 Posted May 20, 2002 i hate the fact that there is not going to be an adventure by lucasarts this year, this realy sucks. I was realy disappointed that they did not release one. I think if they did have an adventure at E3 this year it would sell well, and other compines would starting making more adventures.
Monkeysee Posted May 20, 2002 Posted May 20, 2002 Developers today are going on. There are a lot of game series today that still have fans but are "to old" to have any new games made (Commander Keen). Or if they do have a new game made it's just to keep the fans happy. (Kings Quest 8)I don't think adventure games are comeing back.
Trapezoid Posted May 21, 2002 Posted May 21, 2002 Why not? Other genres' popularities come and go... Adventure games aren't going to stop any time soon, especially with Simon Jeffery at the LucasArts helm. He certainly lived up to the 50% originals promise, and I'm sure we'll see an adventure soon, even if not at E3.
els.DarkLord Posted May 22, 2002 Posted May 22, 2002 I think there won't be another Adventure Game by LucasArts at all. There hasn't been a Scumm title since CMI and to be honest, EMI with it's consolish-gamepad interface finally killed real adventures off. (I know of Grim, but there the interface actually suited the setting) I believe that the announcement of the Sequel to Full Throttle, one of the best (and shortest ) Adventure Games beeing an Action-Adventure proves this. Time to go on..... time to pull out all your old[]/i LucasArts Adventures again
Darnn Posted May 22, 2002 Posted May 22, 2002 Uh, there is another Commander Keen game coming, to the GBA. Just thought I'd point this completely irrelevant information out.
MeddlingMonk Posted May 22, 2002 Posted May 22, 2002 Originally posted by els.DarkLord I think there won't be another Adventure Game by LucasArts at all. A bizarre claim given the official announcement of FT2. You seem to be forgetting that the original is action/adventure as well. What on Earth do you suppose all that face smashing was about? And of course there will never be another Scumm game! That engine was retired. There's as much chance as LEC doing another game with Scumm as there is of id doing another with the original Doom engine. But Scumm does not equal adventure games.
Monkeysee Posted May 22, 2002 Posted May 22, 2002 It seems that I have been wrong. Adventure games could come back with Full Throttle 2! and on an off topic note.... COMMANDER KEEN IS BACK? Where did you hear about this!?
