Ok, it's something I'd like to tackle, but it may not be viable with copyrighted stuff...or would it be?

I think the only addition to a Drakan movie would to maybe
add text in video transitions where the story might be a
bit fuzzy, maybe not as the story is told by the cutscenes.

Thanks, anyway

Drakan cutscene movie

Egad, has been years since I last visited[xx(] I looked around Youtube thinking I might find a movie clip made up of the scenes starting from the Ruined Village and ending with the boy falling, but no such luck. Anyone know of one somewhere? Can the individual segments be found on the cd? I'd have t...

I found the demo in the Maximum PC mag cd for August '99.
TEN YEARS AGO, ACCCKKK! Drakan looks rather primitive now, but
it was rather amazing then, magical maybe.

Too bad TAG isn't/wasn't as big and as involving like Gothic 3. It is THE game I'm mostly so into now. Stunning graphics, wonderful weapons and magic. Not having a conveyance like a dragon (or even a horse) is sucky at the beginning until you get the teleporter stones.

oh, joy!

Installed win98 on my 2nd pc and put in an old mx 400 card. And
the demo worked. Haven't played it since like 8 years ago. Hmmm...
Now I'll try the full version.

That pointy bum on Rynn still bothers me!!! Ha[:0]

Have tried to get OOTF to run on Geforce 5200, 6100, 7300, 8600 with XP and only 5200 gets me to the bonding cut-scene when it goes kaput the other cards bring up the opening scene and click on new game and then it's gone. Wish I'd kept my old win98 pc instead of donating it to a pc-less friend year...

Gothic II is the reason why I stopped playing TAG! hee Besides having to give my little brother his PS2 back. There may be dragons in Gothic II but they're stationary beasts you have to slay, and the only dragons in flight are in a cut-scene. Anyway, this game, like both Drakans just lets you roam a...

I was thinking there may have been books you could press in sequence to get into that big barred door (is it the chapel?) at the Monastery. Looks like something could be in there! But no, I guess.

Eragon and Gothic II pc games

Eragon looked promising from the start but becomes very tedious with that non-stop fighting, ugh. Can't even dismount the dragon. Off my harddrive then. I can't get anywhere in Gothic II, the game goes to the desktop when I start to fight anything and I get stuck in the dialogue boxes with no escape...

I don't know how and why you have to play a way to get offered that old tough bird. I went in there always to recharge my flamestrike and earth blades and maybe you have to play the game so many times. It's exactly what it is, a chicken, you slap enemies around with a squaking, clucking chicken! Lov...

In a game sorely lacking in humor, intentional or otherwise, oh there was the giant chicken (heh), and the homage to Unreal in the Monastery, it was fun buying The Chicken in the repair shop up at Captain Serris' cave. Never was offered this before! Skill level 1 with a HP of 30. Wow. Wasn't mention...

I'm just basically toying with the game now. I kind of lose interest at Shiverbane. I did find the spot where you can get back into the islands. I was immediately killed because of those two dragons Arokh is supposed to kill after he gets the lightning attack! Just the attacks, no dragons. So I repl...

Too lazy to look

I used to play for hours on end with Order of the Flame with no hitches on my old Trident Blade 8 mb card and Win 98.
I installed it the other day and the it crashes on the cutscene when they bond.
I guess it doesn't like XP and Nvidia 7900 card. Poo.

Well, well...I wasn't supposed to go to the monastery in Surdana without Arokh? I found that jump-on point quickly in the water (below Jade's tower) on my first playthru. I wanted to get all the experience I could before going into Shadowmire. I also spent a lot of time trying to get back into the A...

I guess the developers expect you to avoid the island in the middle of Stratos with the last gate so there will be a more difficult final battle, but when you kill everything before hand, there is only the golem left, uh well. Silly, too, when you get behind him, Arokh enters the golem's body and ge...
