Cat hair drifts. It's just a fact of life. Water's wet, sky's blue, cat hair gets into everything. Alexander shouldn't have been killed for having cat fur on him because he has some on his clothes at literally all times.

I don't live with a cat anymore, but if you let them roam around the kitchen and sleep on the table (and Manannan's cat goes everywhere), you are one day going to have cat hair on something you eat.

My left CTRL button once stopped working until I fished a ball of cat hair out from underneath it with a cable tie. OK, it was an old keyboard and a previous cat liked to sleep on it, but still, drat.

I hope you enjoyed this pointless anecdote.

This was my second adventure game, right after Monkey Island. The design philosophy completely blindsided me, to put it midly.

I'm pretty sure this is the one and only KQ game I've ever played. If it is the one I'm curious to see what complete bullshit I missed that would have let me get through the mountain pass without either being eaten by whatever the gently caress it was or freezing to death. I could manage one but not the other at the point I decided I was having no fun whatsoever and gave the drat thing back.

That leg of lamb? Yo can get here without it. And then you eat the pie because it's so obvious. And then you spend 2 days banging your head against the wall before noticing something is off.

Or if you're me you decide gently caress this, games are supposed to be fun not obsessively trying combinations of every single thing you have to get one screen further before you have to start again from the beginning.

It was my one and only experience with a Sierra game and put me off ever trying another. I'm glad this thread has vindicated my decision.
