Siera logic at its finest

[supercow9001]

People who wine about navi from OOT have NEVER played KQ5. Cedric. God.

[obzcure]

I grew up playing Sierra games as I'm sure most who played KQ5 did. So by that time the logic of this game seemed far too natural. It was then other adventure games that would throw you with their completely logical ...logic.

The biggest gripe I had with this game were the "mazes". Even the Catacombs in KQ6 were atleast well designed and you could figure where to go quite quickly, but the desert and the ocean here were painful. the desert honestly probably took half of the game for me

so when is KQ8 going to be reviewed?

[sagesaria]

A POOOOISonous snake! D:

Paw, where'd you find the versions of the music you played for this videos? Was there a remake of KQV that improved on the music compared to how it sounded in your LP?

[Casanuda]

Strangely enough I didn't have as much trouble with the snake since those animals generally don't react well to loud, repeated noises. Basically since snakes only have an inner ear they hear sound in a much less direct way. They're really just hearing everything as bass.

Then again, the odds of the average person knowing that offhand is pretty slim.

@Slaveofamv Ah, yeah. I didn't notice that he left out the ressurection of Cedric.

[Slaveofamv]

@hauk93 "Oh yeah, and Cedric is brought back to life"

[hauk93]

What did he say about Cedric at the end of the review? I can't catch it because he says it so fast!
