Quest for Glory V

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

Role-playing games and adventures are about story, and the game, Quest for Glory, especially is all about plot, characters, and also of humor. The game has all that. The humor and style of the previous Quest for Glory games is fully intact in this final sequel.

This final sequel has always had a juvenile sense of humor and also having corny jokes it has heavy sexual innuendo. Gamers can flirt with all the women in this game, and they can even give and receive a number of groaners.

This game is something that fans have come to expect from the series, so rather than be put off by the game’s quirky sense of humor.

The basic plot of the game need the gamers to answer a summons for help from the kingdom of Silmaria that is nestled in the island area of Marete.

This is one of the best of the quest games ever.

Return to Krondor

Return to Krondor is just like Betrayal at Krondor is set in author Raymond E. Feist’s swords-and-sorcery world of Midkemia.

Both the games offer strong story-driven experiences that is evident by the fact that the games are segregated into “chapters,” during which the plot is advanced in a very linear, and of course predetermined fashion.

In the same way both the games need gamers to use preset characters, each of them possessing a fully developed, distinctive personality, and determine party membership alone in response to plot developments over which gamers have no control.

Betrayal at Krondor allowed gamers to develop their characters in a variety of ways by exploring a vast gaming world and also undertaking numerous subquests.

Return to Krondor provide gamers a much more restrictive gameplay. Here each of the chapter is set in a very discrete, confining geographic area and most of the chapters have no subquests at all and forcing the gamers to focus solely on their primary quest objectives.
