Leisure Suit Larry [Kickstarter]

Post » Wed May 02, 2012 11:15 am

Those that are sayong 'god no!' are probably too young to remember classic point and click games like LSL and Sam & Max.

Ahh, people can't appreciate point'n click or text commands? How so modern gaming, no wonder there are so few good games anymore. :tongue:

@Softnerd, what does DotT stand for, I can't figure it out?

Isn't reviving Leisure Suit Larry a bit like releasing the Carry On collection in HD 3D? :confused:

Or maybe we just find the premise of LSL stupid?

If by that you mean 'horrifying and only appealing to a small group of people', then yes.

But would you care to specify as to why you view Larry as stupid instead of just stating it's stupid?

Because the premise is a 40 something year old loser who can't get laid and tries to seduce girls. It's not even childish, just pathetic.

clearly hits too close to home methinkss :shrug:

Theres this thing called an opinion..

Why come into a thread about a game you hate just to say you hate it?

To stay ontopic, im kinda looking forwards to this. i loved the originals, but around magna [censored] laude ir got a bit stupid! Although ron jeremy as the..fairy...was a highlight!

If it's more like the orifinals then i'll definitely be buying it :)

Oh dear. You haven't played the original games... Your're definitely of the intended audience. :lol:

Edit: I think I'll consider pledging just because of your comment... :lol:

It worries me to see so many people jumping on the kickstarter bandwagon now. Just because it worked for a few games doesn't mean it's going to work for everyone.
THIS!
Eventually someone will realize it's a scam and then kickstarter's will be forgotten for a while.

This is very tangental, but on a whim I searched up "loser" on urban dictionary, and almost every definition http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=loser tobcacco use. Is this congruent with your definition? It does seem rather striking.

Come on now, don't be intolerant. Not all losers are "losers". Some losers are just less cultured than the cultured, and not merely as informed as the informed - that's why they are losers instead of "losers". :P

No way on God's earth, will I donate to the creation of that game...

Seconded...

And I wonder what's going to happen the first time someone claims to be running a kickstarter, than just skips town with the money.

Uh-huh. Care to elaborate or are you just going to insult me?

And for the record, I wasn't saying THIS kickstarter was a scam, in fact I very much doubt it is. But the possibility is there for it to happen in the future, especially with kickstarters becoming more and more common.

You're starting to sound like me when I'm in a bad mood posting on these very forums. No one on here likes me. Are you sure you want to walk this road? ;)

Why come into a thread about a game you hate just to say you hate it? ...

I sort of agree, but opinions are what this forum is for. However, posts that talk about people being "pathetic" or "losers" make me cringe.

...To stay ontopic, im kinda looking forwards to this. i loved the originals, but around magna [censored] laude ir got a bit stupid! Although ron jeremy as the..fairy...was a highlight!...

The Magna ...... Laude was the only LSL one I played, but I know it's not like the originals. I but I actually thought Magna was great!!! I thought it was hilarious! Pretty much all the NPCs were over the top sterotypes.

And Ron Jeremy wasn't just a fairy. He was The porm Fairy!
