The voice acting is this game is some of the best. Robbie Benson kills it as Alexander.
I got the biggest smile on my face when I heard Tony Jay's voice come outta that dog.
"...now if you'll excuse me, I have a Guardian named Bob to deal with."
"Couldn't figure out logic puzzles as a kid"
I look back to other videos I watched, particularly his randomizers...
'You're an old looking kid'
"I took a Mint."
MDBs playthrough of this game burned that sentence into my mind forever.
So that's where they all went.
The narrator is Bill Ratner, and his VO work consists of almost entirely narration or announcer work with the only other notable role is Ambassador Udina from Mass Effect
Oh, the codex guy. That's where I heard him.
"Land ho!"
"I don't think the land appreciates you calling it that."
I'm dying 😂
I'm super hyped for some King's Quest. I REALLY hope this is an opening for even more Sierra games (you really can't go wrong with any of them). Quest for Glory series is still my favorite overall and I'm not ashamed to admit I was the right age to play a lot of Leisure Suit Larry as well! ;D
oh man, rogue playthrough of quest for glory would be so fitting.
I feel like Monkey Island would be very fitting for Jared. The comedy mixed with the graphics and setting should be a good fun mix for a playthrough. It's also not as dated as most of the classic point and click games so it's easier to take in.
Id love to see more Sierra games too! They're all great and there's so many I havent even seen
This game was a huge part of mine and many others' childhood. There is a fantastic and welcoming speedrun community for it that continues to this day. I held the world record for a while but it got beaten by one second. I gotta get it back!
@@DanzelGlovington Do it! I believe in you!
Know how sometimes, after the first episode, you just feel that a series is going to be great? I got that feeling with this.
22:30 You have no idea how happy I am to hear that someone else knows that. Though you forgot to say WHY it's written as "ye". It's because most(if any) printing presses didn't have the letter Þ (thorn), which is pronounced "th". So many people decided to use the letter y since it looks like a Þ cut in half and therefore the most fitting letter.
That's really interesting!
I love this game. Still have the disc in a box somewhere. I'm so excited for this! Hope to see KQ7 eventually that was the one I played the most as a kid.
I still have my collection of all right games, plus I got the new one on steam. 7 was the first one I ever played and it will always hold a special place for me.
Vizier: "I still fail to see the purpose of your visit."
Alexander: "..."
Alexander feels a strange pulling sensation.
Not only is this a cool looking game, but You can hear the love Jared has for it in his voice!
"I don't think the land appreciates you calling it that." I almost spit my coffee out when you said that.
Growing up, my grandpa had an old Compaq PC in his home office that came with the CD version of this game. Every time we had family gatherings and holidays at Grandpa's, my cousin and I would lock ourselves away in the office and play this game the entire time and it honestly cultivated some of our fondest most nostalgic childhood memories.
There's a charm in games that are between the old text adventure style and the modern visual style they evolved to. Especially when they have a great narrator voice.
If you give the genie a mint in the bookshop, he trips balls during his conversation with the Vizier.
The head guard doggo is voiced by freaking Tony Jay and that is awesome! I definitely want to see more.
"Advice is free. Making use of it costs much more."
These are words I have made one of my life rules since the first time I heard them.
I know they explain it, but I chuckled at "At least three other islands." It made it seem like the bookshop owner forgot how many islands there were.
Sweet! I love listening to Jared when he plays old point and Click adventurer games. Death Gate is one of my favourites. I can't wait to see more of this 😍
Jared: "look at that character portrait!"
Me: That man is a hotdog
I can see why Jared used this to help him sleep. Everyone speaks so pleasantly
I haven’t played Kings Quest in a very long time. I remember playing them a lot as a kid. I still get the song “Girl In The Tower” stuck in my head at times. I liked Jared’s reference to “Legends of The Hidden Temple”.
Same!
@@Outrider85 That’s cool.
THIS IS HANDS DOWN ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES OF ALL TIME!!!!! 😍 The number of times I played this as a kid… ahhhh I’m so excited to watch this when I get home from work. I love this thank you!!!!
In the mid 90s, I fell in love with Sierra's Quest for Glory series.
Yes!!! Thank you!!! Ive been dying so bad for you to play another classic point and click adventure. Thank youuuuuuu
I've never actually played a King's Quest game, but this one in particular takes me back to the days when Retsuprae was still around.
Really want to see more.
My favorite King's Quest game was III, which was the first one to feature Alexander. So he has a special place in my heart. I got VI when it was new, and got almost all the way through it, but never finished. Really looking forward to seeing this series!
Loved the King's Quest games as a kid. My Mom and I played them together. Great memories
I love the way Jared squirms during the voice acting. I feel so embarrassed for them too.
The narrator is the same voice actor as Councilor Udina in Mass Effect, and i love "rewatching" this when im working and playing it in the background
Oh my god! I'm so hype for this! My favorite playthrough you have done was Deathgate and I've been hoping for a new point-and-click game playthrough!
Need to get him to play Sword of Shannara. Same engine as Deathgate
Hope this series does well enough that you continue it. I really enjoy watching you play these types of games.
I'm back rewatching/relistening to this chill LP.
Alot of youtubers are so chill when playing these sierra games.
I was thinking of the Death Gate play through, that got me through the long days in ICU, very chill (might have been the painkillers but I'll credit Jared) I'm looking forward to this.
I've been away on the Northwest and came home to this! I adored this game growing up. 100% agree on the narrator. I hear his voice in other games! As a ReBoot fan, I'm sure you know Tony Jay who voices megabyte is Cap't Saladin (aka. Frolo from Hunchback). Lot's of great voice acting in this game! Benson (Alexander) is the Beast from Beauty and the Beast. This game was so graphically amazing and a huge step up KQ5. I'm so excited to watch this play through!!!!!!!!! One of my favorites ever....just make sure you have the CD-Rom book. You'll need it...like any good KQ game...
I was looking through the comments to see if anyone else recognized Tony Jay! I remembered Megabyte but had forgotten Frollo. I recall him being in either Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale too (possibly both, I don't remember). He pops up in a lot of these old games.
Never played this, but I'm 100% in after this first episode. The sheer enthusiasm for the game is really magnetic, as well as the game itself... you can just feel how much love and craft went into every character so far, every interaction, every line of dialogue, every room and environment, and I have to agree, that narration is on POINT. To round it out, Vlad really came in hot with some fantastic visual translations of jokes here (Legend of the Hidden Temple was a nice nostalgic sight for me!). I'm so into this and excited to see more!
I love watching King's Quest LPs!! Glad to see this game in 2022!!
Sierra Games were my whole world as a child! Fantastic stuff Jared, thanks!
The pawn shop owner could sell water to a fish he’s so smooth
Ahh the Sierra melody, brings back so many memories...memories of frustration and broken keyboards.
Oh hell yeah! I love the DeathGate play through. Really looking forward to watching this now.
I don't know why but all of a sudden Alexander sounds like the grown up version of CDI Link, and I can't get that out of my head.
I started watching this not knowing what to expect, and then, for 1993, this game's presentation is amazing. Then I hear Tony Freaking Jay of all people as a talking anthropomorphic collie. Then we got some good advice ABOUT advice. And THEN, when Alexander's in a bookstore, I make a joke about him looking for Animorphs books just before Jared does too. This is going to be something special.
One of the best games of all time. The narrator is an absolute legend. The writing and music, perfect. And every dream-like screen has so much detail. They really put in a ton of effort and it shows. A magical, whimsical game I was lucky enough to play as a child, and now I will enjoy watching you play it!
Yes! More of this!
What I loved about these Sierra games is all the puns and dry humor. Plus, back when these games were new, there were no walkthroughs so you could get stuck for months trying to figure out what to do next.
Sooooo many hours of my childhood playing this game, trying everything to see how can I progress, and dying like crazy/getting stuck haha... please please consider continuing this series
JARED DOING ANOTHER POINT AND CLICK!!!
Hell fucking yes.
I am so hyped for another adventure playthrough
I had the world record speedrun for this game until my buddy PensiveGoat beat my by ONE WHOLE SECOND!!!
I played King's Quest VI so much as a child, and even managed to eventually beat it through sheer quantity of time played. I am looking forward to this play through, should be fun.
I can certainly appreciate you appreciating the shots and art style of this game
I have returned to rewatch one of my most chill LPs ever.
Thanks for making this LP man.
YES, I absolutely want more of this! I love comfy playthoroughs with older games!
I came because I wanted to see again what the conversation dialog boxes look like for an art reference. I'm staying because you are hilarious. I love the added visuals (like his tiny head) because it just cracks me up. This is going to be a very fun series to watch! I *love* the King's Quest games. 😊
17:07 little did Jared know, the first 5 videos were already in a playlist for that very purpose!
15:30
Narrator: "ProJared gracefully plays King's Quest 6"
I have literally no history with King's Quest so I'm very interested to see this series continue. I've really been hoping for some more point-and-click adventure games as I greatly enjoyed Death Gate.
YES!!! I dropped everything I was doing and immediately clicked on this video. This was basically my first video game ever. I remember seeing my mom playing it when I was little and eventually I was able to start playing it on my own. So excited about this series!
Man, I remember playing this game on an old IBM computer many decades ago...think it has a massive 4MB of RAM. So awesome seeing you play this, brings back many memories. Although it's been so long since I played it, I can't remember it all...so I hope you keep playing through this.
You know, despite owning this game when I was a kid and playing it all the time, I don't remember the intro at all. I don't know if it just didn't work on my jank computer or if I just never tried watching it. Anyway, glad to see you playing it! It'll be fun seeing this game again after so many years!
Omg when he pulled out the Legends of the Hidden Temple reference.. my sides
Oh god, I remember the struggles of trying to get the cursor just right using keyboard only (we didn't have a mouse) when I was playing on the dos version back when the game was new. Playing KQ 5 and 6 without a mouse was a trial of patience. Bill Ratner was amazing in his role narrating this game.
I hope Jared does this like Deathgate. I love the story time with Jared play throughs.
“As they approached the island day turns to night and the sea turns violent” IDK why that line reminded me of Soul Caliber. Also the narrator also reminds me of both Xena and Hercules’ opening.
Easily one of my favorite games ever. Got it with my Gateway computer back in the 90s. Can’t wait to watch this series!
I remember watching my mom playing King's Quest 7 when I was a kid. I'd love to watch you play that one as well, but then again I have big nostalgia for it
I never had the guts to play this game back in the day! I'm so glad to be on board in your playthrough!
Always love watching a good King's Quest playthrough
I never played the original games, but I played the new game and it inspired me to go back and look through the past game's stories and see how they're all interconnected it was a fun trip!
Holy crap I'm psyched for this! That opening was a nostalgia bomb!!
You can put the game disc in a CD player and hear the cheesiest love ballad ever written.
Oh hell yes. I'm so stoked to watch these videos when I get off work at night.
This isn't my favorite Sierra game (that will forever be Quest for Glory 2 or 4, depending on mood), but it's my favorite in the King's Quest series by far. Glad to see you playing it, Jared! Had no idea you were into old adventure games!
Yay, another classic point n click game. I love these playthroughs ^^
I did close my eyes for a second and the narrator sent me off to sleep. I eventually woke up but, for a moment, I was too dazed to remember how I got here. ;P
This is perfectly timed as I'm in need of some chill playthrough. I'm here for it all. Gives me some of your old Final Fantasy playthrough vibes.
I'm SO stoked for this. I keep wanting to rewatch Death Gate. But I'm so glad for something like this.
I love that this is one of your favorite games of all time. I love this game too, despite having never played it! So much nostalgia for my dad playing the King's Quest and Monkey Island games. I fell in love with the old PC adventure games from the 80s and 90s for that reason! I used to read the hint books when I was a kid because I couldn't play the games.
YES!!
King Quest and Space Quest are such a fun Series!!~🖤
Loving seeing you play another old adventure game! Good times my dude
Jared here thinking we don't know what a thorn is. I've read a book!
I absolutely adore this game and am so happy you're playing it, Jared. I put off starting it only because I was in the middle of one of your other playthroughs, so time to binge~ This is the game I cite when people ask what defined my childhood.
I will absolutely use this playthrough as a sleep aid.
Sierra games are something else. Never played any of em myself, always just watched a friend play them while I read comics.
Fun Fact Captain Saladin is Voiced by Tony Jay ( voice of Judge Frollo in Hunchback & Megabyte in ReBoot +others) and this was his first Video game Voice work
OMG I LOVE THESE GAMES!!!! They were the first games I got into.
I hope you show off the bad ends. I vaguely remember as a kid a lot of them were really amusing. It's a key part of the whole experience!
Jared's brief mention of "ye" reminded of something I only recently learned.
Apparently, "wherefore" is not an archaic way of saying "where". Instead, its meaning is something to the effect of "why" or "for what reason". So, in that famous line from Romeo and Juliet, "Wherefore art thou Romeo?" carries the meaning of "Why are you 'Romeo'?" (or rather, "Why are you 'Romeo Montague', member of the house that my house is feuding with?"). It makes sense in hindsight (considering a line after that asks him to "Denounce thy father and thy name"), but it's just something that no one ever cleared up for me in school.
That's it. That's my ramble. Have a nice day, everyone.
Bill Ratner is the voice of the narrator. He also voiced the character Flint on the G. I. Joe series in the '80s. This game has an excellent voice cast.
I love this game so much. I met the guy who did the narration this week, and it was such a thrill. He's got to be the best voice in this game (imo).
Edit: Posted my comment before I got to Jared talking about the narrator. His name is Bill Ratner. He also voiced Flint in GI JOE, amongst other cool things.
I got so excited when I saw this on my subscriptions list yesterday! But saved it for today so I could watch the two episodes back to back. Looking forward to this series!
I have never played this series or any of Sierra's games, but I know full well of their pedigree and as always, great listen for when I'm working
Old Sierra Games were the best! Love to see this played to completion.
I'm so happy to see you play this!!! Its my favorite Kings Quest and this will show its greatness to even more people! I'm looking forward to this series so much!
Yooo! I love this game! It's also one of my favorite games of all time! My dad used to play this and Space Quest, although we played KQ 5 and 7 just as much! I didn't realize you were playing this because I merely scanned the thumbnails but I'm so glad you're playing it!!
Can't wait until Alexander pulls out his magic map and "feels a pulling sensation" ;)
Oh man the endorphin rush of seeing that Sierra logo. Reminds me of the days of Lucas Arts as well, gotta find my copy of Loom now
I remember watching my aunt play this game and me dying everywhere in it.
Jared, I'm so happy you did this game. Thank you for everything
OLD GAMES FOR NEW! I'm excited to see you run through this one. I've never actually played these games (only the vaguest memory for KQVII) but they're so charming even just to watch through. Plus Death Gate is one of my fave of your recent playthroughs.
I love the soundtrack for this game. One of the best game soundtracks.
