      It was a little intimidating, not gonna lie 😅 but I just had to tell myself, "These are people just like you and me. Just try to make them laugh a bit and not ask boring questions."

    What an awesome interview so far! I’m so happy seeing you interview Ken and Roberta. You are absolutely in your element here. I love that you plugged Paul Morgan Stetler and Victoria Morsell’s Playthrough of Phantasmagoria over on Paul’s channel Conversations with Curtis. I have been watching them play it since they started. Great stuff, I hope Roberta takes the time to go watch a bit of it.

    Roberta Williams has such a natural gift to inspire people, in ways not unlike how Steve Wozniak inspires people just with by his natural positivity.

      I would imagine they would find them funny(as they are intended). There definitely isn't a lot of praising of the game design though, lol

      Well, I hadn't planned on discussing anything about the Sierra past, actually. All my questions had to do with the present and future. The cat/boot puzzle was just the first one that came to mind when Roberta asked for an example. 😊

      i only guessed that after remember seeing a horse on the box the game came in.

    Do any of you remember make your own Sierra game? You could edit npc text and dialog choices along with items and actions place npc in area, It did steal content from Sierra as it had content ripped from Kq2 and kq3. Like it had the docks from KQ3 and the church from KQ2. , Note make your own sierra game is not the real name but what it was called on BBS`s i think.

    I wonder if Microsoft would be open to letting Ken & Roberta do King Quest VR Space Quest VR game, That Sq3D demo showed how the semi 3D SQ3 could work great in 3D along with the other games. I know they would never be open to letting them use the IP outside of maybe a free fan game. But maybe a 50 50 deal they make the game Microsoft gets 50% of what it makes.
