[higihugo]

id love a revive in adventure games, nowadays is nothing but shooters, come on get real and give the audience something different for a change

[labrynianrebel]

Riven is still one of the best video games of all time!

[MidnightDesperado]

Riven gave us direction, what? We were given a goal, yes, but no direction on how to achieve that goal ~__~

[mycollegeshirt]

wow its kinda funny that if this would of been made just a few months later.. its just so weird that this didn't include the walking dead series from telltale which just dominated

[leaeddiebruno]

Thank you so much for this videos! I write my term paper about the development of Adventure Gaming and this 5 vids are really helpful! But can you tell me some more literal sources or anything about adventure gaming? Would be great...

Thanks a lot and greets from Germany :-)

[Jagged85]

Yes, but this video was created in early 2012, before the rise of Journey and The Walking Dead.

[Jagged85]

I almost forgot about Broken Sword... I just remembered that was one of the first point & click adventure games I ever played!

[Jagged85]

I see your point. It is misleading to advertise games like Heavy Rain and The Walking Dead as if they belong to the traditional Graphic Adventure genre, when in reality they're much more of a hybrid of Visual Novel meets Interactive Movie.

[steamsparil]

And that's okay, I just wish that the people behind those games would kind of "admit" that fact (that those games are more vn's than trad. ag) and carve out a new genre for themselves instead of trying to steer the entire genre and the traditional adventure game in that direction. Hopefully that won't happen but more horrible things have happened in other genres so who knows.
