I'm just curious but are there anymore patches or versions planned?

Imo, one which includes a visible honor stat would be nice. :) It seems like honor probably starts out at 50 and rises or decreases in response to actions by the player.

There will be more patches, particularly to include any translations when they are done.

But we're not going to include a visible honor stat. That was made invisible by design, as much as it may irk some people :P

What can we expect from future patches?

Also you guys really should sell your games like Hanako does. HQ is up there with any oldschool Sierra game, getting paid for doing it would make it easier for you guys to do what you do. :)

New Idea:
Have honour visible on second playthrough of a class.

A few more minor bug fixes; we're not going to be adding in anymore new content as the game is complete as it is :) Plus translations, when they are complete.

At the moment we're working on deluxe versions of Quasar and Warthogs, and they will be for sale, with the hope of eventually getting them onto larger distributor sites for more exposure. Money doesn't buy more time for Radiant or me, though, so it doesn't make it easier for us to make games.

Good idea, but that will be up to Radiant as the designer :P

That's a good idea.

As someone who missed the flame sword his first time through my first post-game action was to research as much as I could about honor online, and I came across a few spoilers along the way. Making honor work that way would probably make more sense. :) (although I wouldn't advise forcing the player to do every class at least once- just winning the game once should be enough to unlock Honor-visibility as an option)

No, in my not-so-humble opinion, I think the player should "work" for it. If it was one playthrough, you could do a thief (honour doesn't matter), then do a warrior (you need honour for the fire sword), and it would ruin the experience.

I played as a Thief but didn't like it as much because the game guilt-trips you a lot and makes Warriors out be completely god-like.

I had more fun as a Warrior TBH and that's probably the best starting class for everybody.

There are 4 things I don't like about playing a rogue:

1. The fast talk skill is incredibly hard to level up, making it difficult to

I liked it better when you could level it up by using hamstring on enemies.

2. No way to stop that asswipe, Brauggi, from healing; whereas warriors and sorceresses can down him easily with their more powerful attacks. Not to mention, he just keeps on doing it again and again and again and again and AGAIN!

3. When attempting to jump across a chasm and failing, it's insulting to see my skills and score go up. What good does that do me, if I'm about to die?

4.

And another other thing I don't like about the game in general, is that enemies can interrupt all my attacks by striking me, while I can't interrupt ANYTHING that they do. If I'm in the air, about to come down on them with my daggers, they should NOT be able to stop me by stabbing me. Especially since I'm not even standing in the area that they're aiming at.

Also, "Mind if I sit here?" Yes, Regin, I do. Get lost!

Aside from all those things, I still enjoy playing the game.

What makes you think you need fast talk to do that?

In the first case, the threshold is substantially lower than that. In the second case, you can substitute another skill :glasses

You could always donate to them, that's what I did when HQ released:). I actually never finished HQ, but have some free time now and am playing it again. Such a great game and was happy to find it on steam.

You should learn to share seats. Here, check out this imgur or this saved game. esjVyTR
