Let's Play Quest For Glory 2: Trial By Fire 60-End Ceremony

[jcmccurdy24]

you probably don't care now but you can become a paladin with ra'keesh at the end... it would explain the 7 points

[87904rules]

no! IT CANT END! oh well. Anyway, i really enjoyed watching your Quest for glory LP's. Going on to quest for glory 4!

[TPepeProductions]

ever since i download the original space quest and saw the name on a pre save by someone, I always name my character BITCHSLAP in games that allow you to name your guy

[donoose]

I once got over 500 points can't remember I think 525 and it said it was out of 550 not 500 in the end..

[maloja94]

@donoose if you beat that clown in mage stor meybe you get 25 points .

[abovenobody]

You my friend, are awesome!!! Thanks for this!!!!

[RedLauraJ]

how about doing Gabriel Knight??

[LateBlt]

@RedLauraJ It's already been done by RaccoonSkiCap, and he did it better than I could.

[iechromefox]

Just finish this playthrough... the ma'am 's voice was a great addition. You 2 are just great! Please don't stop reviewing these games

[mdavies97131]

Redo the Let's Play for 500/500 with the r3rd party remake! :)

[Gildedtongue]

You're still 10 points ahead after the last game, though. ;)

[CenetaurmanE52]

Heh, I can imagine the hero's thoughts throughout the ceremony.

"Thanks guys..."

"It was nothing, but thanks."

"...that wasn't THAT heroic, I needed the fruit..."

"Ok, I kinda see what you guys are saying."

"I FUCKING GET IT, I'M A HERO. SHUT UP!"

[AurrenHS]

Thanks for doing this LP.  I've seen many, MANY LPs and I this one ranks among the top.

I'm glad to see one of my favorite games from my childhood retold through you two. I look forward to the next QFG LP.

[CrestlineIceberg]

This has one of the best full gameplay videos I've seen... I hope you do another QFG or another game.

[demonofhiddenmist]

A good game always ends with your hero getting a medal. It's a rule.

[mrsmi1ey]

awesome job. again, i loved having a woman's voice for the latter part of the game. thanks for posting this up, and for keeping things clean (although the part with zayisha certainly shouldn't be considered mature considering the graphics lol). well done. i subbed.

[looker999997]

Thanks for bringing us this, very enjoyable LP.

[kleptothemagicseal]

Kudos for showing Walid mercy.

Great video as always.

[bohemiozzz]

Thank you very much to you for this game and review! THANK YOU so much!

[koobert]

Thanks again for doing this, LateBlt!

Maybe I should do a QFGIII some time... after my Codename: Iceman one.

[feslenraster]

this is one of the best games, if not THE best RPG games of all time...so creative and magical, and fun and humorous...too bad games like this isn't made anymore :(

[XdGrAnDom]

Just wanted to say thanks, this series was really enjoyable. In fact, it's the best LP I've yet seen. Onto Quest for Glory IV!

[SkepticsClaw]

Just wanted to say thanks, this series was really enjoyable. In fact, it's the best LP I've yet seen. Onto Quest for Glory IV!

[brydarr]

I know you've gotten many thanks already, but I wanted to add another: thanks for taking me back to a special part of my childhood, and saving me the time it would take myself to play the games again!

[kimarous]

This is my favourite ending to a QFG game; it actually gives the feeling of closure. If you wanted to think "This is how I want my hero's adventure to end", you pretty much can do that. QFG 1 and 4 both end on a "move to the next quest" note, and QFG 3 (despite being one of my favourite instalments) has the kind of cliffhanger ending that instills more rage than anticipation. I never played the fifth game, so I can't comment on that one.

[VREVBREQVQW]

Err...not really. You still don't know the identity of Dark Master that Ad Avis spoke of. Not to mention the game flat out says there will be a sequel (the vampiric moon doesn't help either).

[kimarous]

Well, for the most part, it does. The "Dark Master" part doesn't tug that the imagination that much, and the vampiric moon after the credits can easily be ignored.

I'm basically trying to say that if someone felt "Well, this has been an interesting tale... but I don't want to know more", that this game has the best feeling of closure out of QFGs 1-4.

[SolarVampire]

I enjoyed this Let's Play. In fact, was quite addicted to it, (but managed to use it as leverage to reward myself for doing homework for college). Bravo!

P.S. I could never finish a Quest For Glory game, mainly because, while it was fun to play around in it, it just appeared a daunting task to attempt to play it seriously.

[TifasRevenge2]

Hey Guys and Gals. The new QFG2 remake is out now, I'm gonna do a Let's Play of the new one.

[MacLee54]

oh sorry man I forgot to subscribe to you

[shiningkingghidora]

Yo LateBlt and Hercrabbiness.

Have I got a game for you.

The 7th Guest.

It's a puzzle game set in a haunted house.

Hope you're not afraid of ghosts.

[LateBlt]

Great idea, thanks. Too bad I'll never play it.

[Itslvle]

Great job on the LP, can´t wait for the next one.

It´s good that you guys have teamed up. Both of your LP´s have been awesome, but that just takes it to another level.

[dahalochick]

You did a great job on this Let's Play series; thank you so much for your hard work!

and hercrabbiness: i'm elated to hear you'll be doing IV with LateBlt! You have a great voice, I can't wait to see it!

[hercrabbiness]

Thank you! :) I look forward to doing QFG4 as well.

[WastedPo]

Hmmm, even if you never do a Let's Play series on it, I highly recommend you play QFG 3 regardless. It's got a great story and a real unique atmosphere.  The only real shortcoming is there aren't quite enough activities to do on the African savanah.

[LordeSloth]

Re: missing points, Did you kill every type of monster? When you play a fighter, they have this self-esteem problem unless they know they can beat up everything, in fact it must really eat at him that he finds no evil Katta or Gnomes (just itching to find some dirt on Keapon).

Beating Rakeesh and maybe Uhura in the spar might give up points as well. Honestly, I'm surprised you're not over 500 as you were playing all 3 paths.

Did you sell tails and claws to Harik? Return Omar's purse?

[LateBlt]

Hahaha... The next video explains the missing 7 points. ;)

[LordeSloth]

Well, clearly I should know better then to offer advice before I watch all your videos. In fact, I'll just become a timid recluse until I absorb all there is to know about life, the universe and everything...starting with the source code of QfG2.

Let this be a lesson to us all.

[LateBlt]

No, it's okay, lots of people comment before watching the entire video, let alone the next video in the series... I appreciate all the ideas, it just happened that I found out where the 7 missing points went. :)

[etoileangelique324]

Here's another really funny glitch

On the Floppy version, in dosbox, after meeting Ad Avis again when he summons his necrotaur pets, you can go back to town and climb over the wall. If you go out of town during the night, you'll be caught, but during the day, you can go out, the chase music will play, but nothing happens. Weird huh?

[etoileangelique324]

That's for QFG4 :P

[SchlossRitter]

The skipped dialog box just before the Shadows of Darkness promo:

But wait! There's more to come in the next thrilling saga of "Quest for Glory" by Lori and Corey.

Hrm, I don't really like to experience a series out of order, but Wages of War was kind of wedged in in the first place.

Oh, and just so you know, the DOS version of QfG4 has the nice color animated icons. And you can even narrate the CDROM version by turning Text on and Audio off. Besides DosBox, you may need belzorash's patches.

[LateBlt]

Yeah, I know you can turn speech off in the CD version of the game... That's probably what I'll end up doing. And I think my version of the game already has those patches, as I played it to the end without any bugs other than the Domovoi bug and the Ad Avis bug which I dedicated a whole video to some time ago.

For some reason, I found those animated icons a little annoying at first until I got used to them.

[SchlossRitter]

Ugh, the Domovoi bug... that one hit me too, and I had to replay half the game. Instead of being a program bug like the others that crash the game, this one is more a decision tree logic error, where a wrong sequence of user input halts progress in the story.

Ah yes, I remember that Ad Avis bug video now. I had a few issues with saved games there also, but to a slightly different effect than you got. I can't remember what it was that I got now though.

[etoileangelique324]

AHA. You did NOT "kill" Walid at the EOF fight :P

[LateBlt]

IT IS MY SHAMESFUL SECRAT! WAAH! :(

That was probably the only honorable thing I did during this LP.

[NickelSamurai]

hooray for qfg4 lp! :)

[LateBlt]

***SPOILER ALERT*** Actually, Julanar reappears as a human character in QFG5, married to someone else. The true love of another person turned her back into a human.

[JackiePaquito]

Yay! Shadows of Darkness is my favourite game, and i never finished it

[dreaminshadow]

aww man, Cant wait for QoG IV!! XD

[robosino]

well its over, good job can't wait for the next one...

[mephigog]

Nice,can't wait for #4. I think my original disk was corrupt and I never got to play it!

[QuesterLEJ]

LateBlt,

QFG3 may not be the best in the series--QFG2 and QFG4 take those honors in terms of plot--but "Wages of War" definitely takes the cake when it comes to sentimental value for me. The game was the first one I ever played with a sound card, and it served as my reintroduction to the series. I played Hero's Quest when I was younger but didn't realize it had been renamed. From there I got into the others. If you don't do QFG3, I may sometime. Not sure if I'd have time, but I may try. :)

[LateBlt]

It looks like a decent enough game. I'm sure I'll play it... Someday.

[GrizzlyDulani28]

Looking forward to QFG4!

[Fender178]

Also can you do QFG3 after you played it and you get comfortable with it. You very welcome I proud to support your Lets plays because they are very interesting and very well done. Cant wait until the next Lets play. I just hope you dont run into those disturbing errors during the next lets play of QFG4 like the Error 47 and the error 52.

[huaxiong90]

If I recall correctly, he said he's not doing QFG3 for sure.

[huaxiong90]

Oh whoops, I said that before I watched the whole video. Sorry. (referring to my response to fender178)

Also LateBlt, I remember ADVRipper saying before that you had to jump down in the earth elemental's room in the cave rather than use the magic rope to get the points since you are a fighter.

[huaxiong90]

Oh and it seems you explained that in the channel description, too. God, I am so not with it today. :(

[SchlossRitter]

About the game breaking errors, look up on Google "Script code patches for Sierra SCI games" and find some patches that NewRisingSun/belzorash made for many broken Sierra games a few years back.

[AmuroNT1]

Alright! QFG4 was always my favorite, even if I couldn't beat it due to all the programming errors. I'm really glad you reconsidered giving it a shot, and I look forward to the next Let's Play. Until then, peace!

[SchlossRitter]

Google "Script code patches for Sierra SCI games"

[AmuroNT1]

Trust me, I tried. I encountered this really odd error when I went to the Dark One's cave to perform the rituals and the game "reset" back to Day 1; going outside triggered the meeting with Katrina, but when I went to the castle, she was waiting to take me back to the cave to perform the rituals...

[SchlossRitter]

Now that's a weird error. Restoring your game to an earlier point didn't help? Then again, I never saw anything that severe.

After patching, I still had a few rare random errors (occasional crashes when entering the room at the inn) but never anything that loading a saved game didn't fix. I didn't have to use DosBox either, since with the patched DOS version ran fine for me in Win98.

[SeTSwiPe]

I just remembered QFG4 already has voice. soooo... you guys are gonna steal their thunder and out-voice them?

[LateBlt]

Only the CD version has voice. The floppy version doesn't.

In any case, yes, we'll be doing the voices ourselves.

[SchlossRitter]

See my comment below, as you don't need the floppy version to cut the voices.

[Rincewind13]

QFG4 woop!!! Thanks for the Lets Plays. There the best! I'll be watching Hercrabbiness' laura bow LP while i wait ^^.

[Aelyria]

On the topic of "where the path leads", the Coles explained that originally they envisioend a four-part Quest for Glory series to represent the four classical elements (Air, Fire, Earth, and Water, respectively), but they felt that the challenges the hero would face in Mordavia were too severe coming right out of Shapeir, and so they reluctantly created an interim "non-elemental" Quest for Glory in "Wages of War". It is largely considered an abomination by QFG purists like me. :)

[LateBlt]

I don't know if I'd call it an "abomination," it just wasn't quite as well-thought-out as the other games to my mind...

[SchlossRitter]

Poop, I accidentally hit "Spam" instead of "Reply". Sorry.

*Assumes Dr. Cranium Voice*

What is this "non-elemental" nonsense you speak of? Everyone knows the fifth and greatest elemental is the Pizza Elemental, perfectly wedged in between the other four.

[LateBlt]

I don't know, I think those whole idea of yours is kind of cheesy. I may need to do some topping and ponder this for a slice.

Yeah, I got nothin'...

[Aelyria]

Awesome Let's Play, LateBlt. I never knew of the Let's Play movement before watching your Hero's Quest and Quest for Glory 2 Videos, and I love how you and hercrabbiness have teamed up to do Quest for Glory IV: Shadows of Darkness. I can't wait to see it!

[SeTSwiPe]

yay!!! QFG4 !!!! will you redo it as a paladin? I think it makes more sense and the game fits more as a paladin.

Please also do QFG5 and shack up with Katrina. I never played the 5th one cuz my pc couldn't handle it at the time of release and lost it.

[etoileangelique324]

Either that or a Magician makes more sense. There ARE quests and missions that only Paladins or Magicians can do. The fighter and thief stuff can be done by all classes (provided you DO have the skills).

But yeah, it WOULD be funny to see a paladin steal stuff

[Cagriaboyu]

I don't think that he'll be able to play it as a Paladin if he's never played Quest for Glory III, unless he does the thing where you import an incomplete hero from VI into VI. :P

[LateBlt]

Actually, QFG4 lets you import characters from QFG1 and QFG2 as well... You just won't be able to start with 300 in most of your skills.

[Firewizard23]

Three cheers for LateBlt! The hero of Shapeir.

Hip Hip Hooray!

Hip Hip Hooray!

Hip Hip Hooray!

I love QFG4! I can't wait. That was the first one I ever beat!

[huaxiong90]

Rakeesh didn't speak for you...:/

[LateBlt]

He doesn't, unless you become a paladin. If you become a paladin, he speaks for you and actually gives you Soulforge, his flaming sword. Otherwise, no, Rakeesh says nothing.

[shiningkingghidora]

When Keepon Laffin was young

and he had no sense.

Stuck his Dick to an electric fence.

It curled his hair tickled his balls.

Made him shit in his overalls.

Shadows of darkness has a Transilvania\Germany theme and there is no need to do voices because it has speech.

[LateBlt]

If you're playing the CD talkie version, then yes, it has speech, but we'll be playing it in text mode so we can do the voices. Otherwise there wouldn't be much point in doing a voice-commented Let's Play. :)

[huaxiong90]

So what's the fighter's way of defeating Ad Avis? (sorry I've never played this game, just qfg1)

[LateBlt]

The fighter kicks over a candle to break the spell (or he can throw something at a candle), then just runs right through the burning brazier and pushes Ad Avis out the window. As usual, the fighter's solution is the most direct.

[Aldrius]

Erana and the fortune teller too.

Maybe the lost points were for doing the magic-user or thief solutions in certain situations rather than the fighter solutions.

[Malquey]

Why did that dude turn back into a Saurus for the credits? I suppose it could've been another one...but that was the only green Saurus I have seen...

[LateBlt]

It's a different saurus in the credits; I am pretty certain of this. ;)

[etoileangelique324]

YAY for you doing QFG4! :D

[TomSFox]

You didn't buy the daggers!

[etoileangelique324]

What happened to part 59? :(

[LateBlt]

It's up... I uploaded it at the same time as this video.
