I went on here to confirm if its a wise purchase off of steam. I like my adventures dark, uncertain, enthralling. This trailer struck me as if it had abit of an overdose on fairy dust so I'm still not convinced...
@xCsl12 You REALLY (really really) should, best game ever, the greatest adventure of your life! really is the best game i ever played, It's just so incredibly remarkable, and it's one of those games you can play over and over and over again (I finished it like a billion times), It never gets old. It took me like six straight months to find it (I couldn't find it in Israel) until i decided to get it online, and i don't regret a second of all of my searching. Now that you have a chance get it!
I never enjoyed any video game in my life as much as i enjoyed ''The Longest Journey'', this is the best game i ever played and i hope the third game will come out soon
Pretty great adventure game! I enjoyed the sequel too, though it took some getting used to the different control scheme. I wish we could get a part 3. And 4 and 5 and ... =)
Finished Dreamfall! Not as good as the longest journey but not by far; great music, wonderful characters, good script/plot and the level design in some places was breathtaking. Not to spoil it for anyone but the bit where a good friend falls in the water struck by a spear, would that scene change if the question answered differently? Did not like that!!! The interaction between the characters and how you can control was impressive; I miss them now! A great journey!!!
Well guys you are right, this was indeed a masterpiece. I have just completed the longest journey and though I thought it would be longer I am left satisfied, brilliant!! Now time to start Dreamfall ...Why didn't I know anything of these games when I was younger!! oh well.
Wow i'm curious about this game, i'm a HUGE fan of oldschool CRPG games like Deus Ex, Fallout 2, PlaneScape : Torment, and Baldur's Gate II. i was never a fan of point & click adventure pc games, but this one looks convincing!
@1FrEaKyShOrTy idk, I just finished playing dreamfall the longest journey a few hours ago and it DEFINATELY needs a sequel to it. I haven't played The Longest Journey yet, but after playing Dreamfall and seeing how much of a good game it is, I plan to play The Longest Journey. I dont think you can go wrong playing both games, so if you have the time and the chance to play both of them, why not? You won't be dissapointed.
The Longest Journey is ,without a doubt, not only a great game but also art. From music,scenes,to dialogues.
If you still have the ability to stand in awe when faced with REAL imagination,you will probably adore this game. The only reason people like Dreamfall is because it is decent and because of this prequel that sucked people in from even with the starting menu... (seriously)
@TheNEWfilmfanatic99 Hi, I just purchased, downloaded and installed Longest Journe from GOG. I have Windows 7 and it works excellent. There was absolutely no problem.
Artwork. This is what happens when truly talented imaginations take their time with a game's storyline. This game deserves every one of it's many awards.
@Camerinal Torrent. No one will mind, if your principles have told you not to. I'm sure the makers of the game would prefer you to enjoy it's legacy than look for ages for a pre owned game that they wouldn't get money for you buying anyway.
This is one of the better adventure games available to date. My only complaints are that they tried to push a political agenda or two that could have been left out of the subplots and the game would have still been amazing!
Even still, few games made me want to return to the keyboard as much as this one did. Very good story telling and presentation.
OMG THIS LOOKS AWESOME.. i found this game in my shelves.. And dad told me he gave it to me some time back.. Back then it didnt sound interesting, but now i see,, IT KICK ASS.. im so trying it
no juego a una aventura grafica desde hace casi 8 años, desde que este genero empezo a perder calidad, sin embargo, este juego es puro arte: personajes con personalidad, escenarios cuidados, trama perfecta y situaciones pintorescas. 10/10
The Longest Journey. Gameplay could be better, but above all, It features one of the few PERFECT stories out there. Okami, The Shinto based Adventure game about the Goddess Wolf Amaterasu is the PERFECT match up for this game. Above all, It is safe to assume that Okami and The Longest Journey are two of the greatest games in history and belong on the top of the totem pole.
This game has everything: relatable hero, likeable side characters, humour, villians, chase scenes, science-fiction, fantasy, thoughts about life, reality, being human, destiny, everything.
If it was a movie in 99 I wouldn't even care about The Matrix movies.
I'm about to start playing this game.. Is there anything you would consider annoying or unsatisfying? Any drawbacks? If not - great :) Hope it's as good as Syberias.
@LittleWhiteCrow You might not like the puzzles until after the 'shadow' puzzle,. So persevere, as it just gets better and better for the next 30-40 hours!!!!
@LittleWhiteCrow The puzzles may be a little annoying up until the 'shadow' puzzle, but after that the story, game and puzzles just keep getting better and better and better!
Unbeatable atmosphere ! I cried 3 times during the game (never happened with ANY other game), when Crow went into the abbyss and I thought hes never coming back, then somewhere in the middle when April slept badly for the 4th day in a row and I suddenly thought - my god, is she gonna die at the end? and of course at the very end when Crow walks into the granny room and talks with her (I somehow knew it was April from the very begining but that scene just moved me). Still waiting for the movie !
@FusionBreeze The Longest Journey is way better than dreamfall + dreamfall was super easy to finish. but still dreamfall's plot is amazing, and it still a super awesome game
It was a really long journey for me 'cause when I first meet this game I was a child, years ago, but I couldn't finish it. This year I meet again with TLJ, and although I not played fluently, I finally ended the journey. =P
The greatest adventure game, the greatest story in a computer game, the greatest main character in a computer game, the greatest characters in a computer game, the greatest vocals in a computer game. The greatest game period.
It was released in 2000, but that doesn't mean it's too old to not be enjoyable.
The game isn't about the graphics (the character models are oudated, but the backgrounds are still breathtaking) but what makes it stand out is the story, characters, and environment.
Personally, I'm more of a shooter guy myself, but I still consider this my favorite game, so that's big praise for this game.
It has one of the most unique and engaging stories I've ever experienced. I can't say enough good about it.
I played Dreamfall, that made me to find out something more about Longest Jorney. This trailer looks freaking awesome. I am sure I am gonna get this game. I would love if they would make a re-make of this game just like of RE1, becouse the graphics are really too old now.
Yeah, Dreamfall was good for the continuation of the story, but it had some flaws. The combat was unnecessary, and the thing with the mystery girl was too derivative of Japanese horror movies like Ringu and The Grudge. The Darkpeople world blew my mind, and I the change they made to Marcuria was hard to swallow, but made sense and made you have more empathy for the city and it's citizens. But no Venar was disappointing after the concept art got my hopes up. My user name is named after them lol.
If you haven't played TLJ yet, it'll help make sense of a lot of things in Dreamfall and may make you want to play thru it again to get all the little references and round out the story.
I kind of doubt they'll make a remake of TLJ because they already revisited some of the areas for Dreamfall. I'd love to see a fan made one, that'd be awesome!
They definitely need to update hardware support for TLJ. If Tournquist wants people to follow his stories, they have to be able to play the first one.
I love this game. Played it the first time when i was like 12, it really had an impact on me because of it's philosophical undertones. But, and this is crucial for the game: SAVE OFTEN AND IN DIFFERENT SLOTS, AND DON'T FORGET TO RETRIEVE THE FRIGGIN' MONKEY IN THE ALLEY!
So true. It's the most original story I can think of. Some may disagree and say it takes alot from fantasy and fairy tales, but I think it's true we've seen these types of environments before, but not portrayed in this way. At different times both April and Zoe even say Arcadia reminds them of high fantasy lol. I think fairy tales in Stark are based on Arcadia.
I'm sure Ragnar Tournquist won't give up on this storyline. I think it's one of his babies. Kind of like John Carmack with Doom.
Just finished this game yesterday. One of the greatest adventures told, I would say. Almost LOTR material there.
Personally, I would have preferred more Myst-like puzzles instaed of the many inventory based here+there is way too much dialogue, but apart from that this is a beautiful and exciting game. I would rate it 85/100.
And the Gribbler episode scared the shit out of me!!!
I remember this game, I liked it,but I never got past the part where you have to get the key out of the subway track. Can someone tell me if this game works on the New MacBook OSX? If it does, I might spend some time looking for it, so that I can play it.
uve gotta download it from the steam website and the key from the track u need to get a rubber duck from out the window in your apartment. look up the walkthrough if you get stuck because for me the puzzles are So hard and the answers are obscure because its an old game.
It's old school adventure man, they don't make them like they used to lol. Even Dreamfall's dialog and puzzles were kind of dumbed down. But that's not what I played it for. I'm the type that likes dialog heavy games, it helps getting to know the characters. I found the Syberia games character drab because she never commented on things.
But I agree, some of the puzzles are kind of silly. I don't miss puzzles like the key in the subway. I mean, a blow up duck and a clamp? Talk about unintuitive.
@lusteraliaszero Agreed. I haven't seen a better written (not to mention ridiculously engaging) story ever since TLJ. Assassin's Creed 2 is close, but even with it's mind blowing conclusion, it's still a long shot from TLJ. I really hope it gets a remake with better gameplay and graphics. Don't get me wrong though, I still love the original. :D Sigh ... I miss the first time. I wish I can forget everything and replay it again and again and again.

Many people haven't understood things because they hadn't played this. Questions like "who the hell is April Ryan?" and "Maybe Arcadia is not real, and just a dream?" shouldn't have popped up, but they did because of not knowing many things.
Just started this and it's amazing! Got a second hand copy of the 4 disc edition and had a little trouble installing it on XP, but found that all I needed to do was run the Setup in Windows 95 mode :)
Works well now, and it has blown me away even though it's 2009! Buy it if you see it cheap!
BTW: Does anyone know how to increase the resoluion, because that would be nice.
Na, the sequel Dreamfall cant touch the original. By the way the graphics in Dreamfall are 7 years ahead of the original so what do you expect. TLJ graphics were excellent back in 1999/2000 when the game was released
Dont play this game on an LCD. All LCDs scale the unchangeable 640x480 resolution and it looks poor since each pixel is blurred. CRT monitors do not do this. I HIGHLY recommend playing this game on a CRT monitor.
Umm no, a lot of LCD's have the option to keep the aspect ratio and even if yours doesn't if you use an Nvidia graphics card it has the ability (in the control panel options) to use it's own fixed aspect ratio scaling so that if will keep the right aspect ratio and not stretch the image or anything.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
HA! HA! Your lack of education is very sad. LOL! This game has a FIXED resolution of 640x480. Aspect ratio has NOTHING to do with it. What you dont understand is that when you scale from the native 640x480 resolution to anything other than 1280x960 (very rare native res for an LCD) you lose 1:1 pixel mapping which blurs the image. If you cant understand this then you truly need to get an education in how resolutions works on LCDs because you obviously dont know what 1:1 pixel mapping is.
Not sure where you got this information or why you think the aspect ratio/resolution has nothing to do with it.
When you use a monitor that features the fixed aspect ratio or do it through the nvidia graphics options the game runs at the resolution it should, IE if the game runs natively at only 640x480 then that is what your monitor will show the image as.
It will then add black bars around the image in order for the image not to stretch, so the image will not look distorted.
Why do you need to act like a arrogant cocky know it all prick when you put across your information?
Why don't you just "discuss" what you know instead of letting your ego get so big that it expands your head to the point of needing a crowbar to lodge in-between your head and the door frame!?
Yeah, except he's not acting like he knows everything. He's acting like a dumbass who's is so happy to find someone that is dumber than him, but the truth is, it's his illiteracy that makes him think the other person is dumb lol
The game truly corresponds its name. You travel all around and across the twin worls while intrigued by the slowly unfolding plot. When I managed to clear the game and watched back the way I had traveled, it really was the longest journey.
The sequel, Dreamfall, is an ok game too albeit it is more of an interactive movie with lots of talk and obvious objectives instead of having decent puzzles like its predecessor.
Games like this are rare man. I play games constantly and I really can't think of any modern titles that have a great story like this. Keep waiting and watching.
The best game I've ever played. It got everything inside - wonderful story, great humor, complicated yet realistic characters, amazing dialouges and emotions. Almost every adventure game seems to me just like an ordinary PC game, even the good ones. But the main character, April, made this so real with her natural sceptisism. You are really not playing as hero, but ordinary girl and she's saying stuff that would come to our minds. Love it
longest journey is great. dreamfall was a disappointment. the 3rd game needs to go back to point click.

I'm sure Ragnar Tournquist won't give up on this storyline. I think it's one of his babies. Kind of like John Carmack with Doom.

It's in the options, but you gotta get sound for it, the music, the sound effects, and most importantly, the voice acting, is half the experience.

Just finished this game yesterday. One of the greatest adventures told, I would say. Almost LOTR material there.
Personally, I would have preferred more Myst-like puzzles instaed of the many inventory based here+there is way too much dialogue, but apart from that this is a beautiful and exciting game. I would rate it 85/100.
And the Gribbler episode scared the shit out of me!!!

I remember this game, I liked it,but I never got past the part where you have to get the key out of the subway track. Can someone tell me if this game works on the New MacBook OSX? If it does, I might spend some time looking for it, so that I can play it.
NabloProductions 2 years ago
uve gotta download it from the steam website and the key from the track u need to get a rubber duck from out the window in your apartment. look up the walkthrough if you get stuck because for me the puzzles are So hard and the answers are obscure because its an old game.
Bellsell77 2 years ago
It's old school adventure man, they don't make them like they used to lol. Even Dreamfall's dialog and puzzles were kind of dumbed down. But that's not what I played it for. I'm the type that likes dialog heavy games, it helps getting to know the characters. I found the Syberia games character drab because she never commented on things.
But I agree, some of the puzzles are kind of silly. I don't miss puzzles like the key in the subway. I mean, a blow up duck and a clamp? Talk about unintuitive.

@lusteraliaszero Agreed. I haven't seen a better written (not to mention ridiculously engaging) story ever since TLJ. Assassin's Creed 2 is close, but even with it's mind blowing conclusion, it's still a long shot from TLJ. I really hope it gets a remake with better gameplay and graphics. Don't get me wrong though, I still love the original. :D Sigh ... I miss the first time. I wish I can forget everything and replay it again and again and again.

Many people haven't understood things because they hadn't played this. Questions like "who the hell is April Ryan?" and "Maybe Arcadia is not real, and just a dream?" shouldn't have popped up, but they did because of not knowing many things.

Just started this and it's amazing! Got a second hand copy of the 4 disc edition and had a little trouble installing it on XP, but found that all I needed to do was run the Setup in Windows 95 mode :)
Works well now, and it has blown me away even though it's 2009! Buy it if you see it cheap!
BTW: Does anyone know how to increase the resoluion, because that would be nice.

Na, the sequel Dreamfall cant touch the original. By the way the graphics in Dreamfall are 7 years ahead of the original so what do you expect. TLJ graphics were excellent back in 1999/2000 when the game was released

Dont play this game on an LCD. All LCDs scale the unchangeable 640x480 resolution and it looks poor since each pixel is blurred. CRT monitors do not do this. I HIGHLY recommend playing this game on a CRT monitor.
soldersucker 2 years ago
Umm no, a lot of LCD's have the option to keep the aspect ratio and even if yours doesn't if you use an Nvidia graphics card it has the ability (in the control panel options) to use it's own fixed aspect ratio scaling so that if will keep the right aspect ratio and not stretch the image or anything.
gyloir 2 years ago

HA! HA! Your lack of education is very sad. LOL! This game has a FIXED resolution of 640x480. Aspect ratio has NOTHING to do with it. What you dont understand is that when you scale from the native 640x480 resolution to anything other than 1280x960 (very rare native res for an LCD) you lose 1:1 pixel mapping which blurs the image. If you cant understand this then you truly need to get an education in how resolutions works on LCDs because you obviously dont know what 1:1 pixel mapping is.
soldersucker 2 years ago
Not sure where you got this information or why you think the aspect ratio/resolution has nothing to do with it.
When you use a monitor that features the fixed aspect ratio or do it through the nvidia graphics options the game runs at the resolution it should, IE if the game runs natively at only 640x480 then that is what your monitor will show the image as.
It will then add black bars around the image in order for the image not to stretch, so the image will not look distorted.

The game truly corresponds its name. You travel all around and across the twin worls while intrigued by the slowly unfolding plot. When I managed to clear the game and watched back the way I had traveled, it really was the longest journey.
The sequel, Dreamfall, is an ok game too albeit it is more of an interactive movie with lots of talk and obvious objectives instead of having decent puzzles like its predecessor.

The best game I've ever played. It got everything inside - wonderful story, great humor, complicated yet realistic characters, amazing dialouges and emotions. Almost every adventure game seems to me just like an ordinary PC game, even the good ones. But the main character, April, made this so real with her natural sceptisism. You are really not playing as hero, but ordinary girl and she's saying stuff that would come to our minds. Love it
