[CoG] Legacy of Zagolth

[Despain]

It's a complete nonissue. The writing in MotW probably betrays my American-ness to players in other countries, but who gives a shit? I'd just leave it alone. You're British, it's a British game. End of discussion.

but it doesn't confuse players. most of the britishness i just pretended that it bothered me (since hating england is part of my gimmick), like "mate", "you lot", etc. elevenses however isn't a word that a lot of people know so it might confuse them. i'm not saying AMERICANIZE THIS, and i don't think there's a reason to change any of the other british words, but some words that might confuse playrs should be changed to be more neural

 

[Nickster]

it did confuse me actually. i though he was saying ELVENness and i had a "WTF moment."

 

[HarryE]

@Nickster: Bearly there... It's ELEVENses cos you have it at eleven o clock. Eh? Geddit? Eh? Eh?

*hides in a corner*



Anyway, I'm practically done with the new village section. I need to do another playtest, and then I'll be finished.

Changes made and things the same

• You still get dog-food
• The drawer move is gone
• Go to elevenses (Dejack now explains what that means) straight after dog food
• You then have a choice of doing two or more of 4 quests.
  -The barrel quest (see screenshot thread)
  -Two adventure-based quests, picking oranges and finding lost spectacles
  -And one short quest for people who want to rush this bit
• Repairing the roof remains, along with Greg's scene
• The find 8 people quest has been reduced to a "Find Anna" quest.
• You now longer need to go and pick up the cake

EDIT:Sorry, looks like I may not be able to get the new version out as soon as I had hoped. Busy day...

Is it okay, now? I really want to start work on chapter 2 now.

Then go for it! Don't ever feel forced to make changes to your project. This one may have been a good idea, but in the end, it's your work and you make the decisions. I'm not quite done with Chapter 1 yet (one freakin' guard I just can't get past...he never walks more than a tile away from the hallway where I'm standing, but i'll figure it out), but I will look forward to Chapter 2 with great interest.

Oh yeah, that guy. Watch how he keeps taking a drink from the shelf...

I should start writing a walkthrough, like Doctor said.


EDIT: I should mention that you can also buy a towel at Satenzo Coast as well... You can sleep on it as if you were at an Inn...

I didn't think it needed changing in the first place, but okay ^o^

Can't wait for chapter 2 ;D

 

[HarryE]

Can I just ask a question to those who have completed the game? How long did it take you? My estimate of 1hr30mins was clearly was off.

 

[sockeh]

Hmm...I just finished dejack's flashback. Right now I'm stuck after Cpt. A gives him travel papers. After that, the screen shifts to the side, and I can't move or see dejack. Is this the end of the chapter or just a bug? Great game by the way, I'm looking forward to chapter 2 =)

 

[bradleydfc]

Hey Bruno. Long time no speak huh?
Good to see you've finally released this ol game.
I downloaded it but I'm stuck. Where can I get these travel papers from? The game's a bit unclear of where I need to be going...

Oh, bugger. Yes that's a glitch. Sorry, hang on.

Are you in Conlase Village? Then yeah, it's a glitch I made after editing that sequence. But if that's not the version you have then they should be in your inventory.

It took me about 4 hours. But I did get lost in the field a lot, and went down the wrong path and ended up in the beach resort place...

I just wanna say something about the whole Bruno VS. Doctor VS. missingno argument thing:

Bruno, chill out, Despain is Despain.  Frankly, I would be HONORED if he were to play my game and make a long critique about it.  Be glad he actually gave yours some attention @_@

Missingno: don't insult Doctor's reviewing style -_-'

Doctor: hi.

The End.

 

[HarryE]

I'm uploading a non-glitched version right now. Sorry about all this.

No... im in Ockensomething...
And I need to get a ship. There you say to the guy 'I have travel papers' and then it goes to my inventory-- I don't have them. Where do I get them from?


By the way this is in the fish pun town, if you can't understand what I call it.

Uh? I just checked the code, and you definatly should have them... You should have got them from Captain Antonio back in Conlase.

I just downloaded it...unfortunately, it's still not working. this time dejack turns invisible. lol It was funny for a while till I couldn't move him out of a house =/ Am I the only one having these bugs?

 

[Link in Pink]

I noticed a bug. After you avoid the rocks and find another way up while you're under the fort, you engage the pirates again. I beat them and then the head honcho pirate says something like, "You idiots! I'll take of him myself!" and then nothing happened. The game didn't freeze because the fogs kept moving and other things were animated, but I could do nothing. Might want to fix that

Oh, godammit. See what one little change can do to your game?! Gargh!

This is my fault, don't worry. I'm on it. Should have tested it properly. I'm so sorry about this.

@LiP: I thought that I had fixed that, but there you go.

 

[Link in Pink]

I have one of the older versions of the game, maybe that was it :P
