[quote=Mikael]I’ve been wondering along the same lines as you, rtrooney. I like to add one more reason:

4. The retro/nostalgic feeling. [quote/]

I was thinking of that because it is one reason to "occasionally" justify using retro graphics. The use of retro graphics is justified if the purpose is to emulate the style of another game. The developers of Al Emmo and the Lost Dutchman's Mine intentionally emulated the graphic style (as well as several other styles) of Freddy Pharkus Frontier Pharmasist. I beleive friend Josh Mandel was brought in as a dialog consultant. I can understand why becuase he and Al Lowe were the creators of FPFP.

However, there is a reason why games as varied as Gabriel Knight, Broken Sword and Syberia, among many, many others, update their graphic style when they are "Remastered". I'd hazard a guess it was out of a desire to find a new audience. Not to pay homage to an earlier style.

I watched this one for awhile and always wanted to give it a try. I completely forgot all about it. Thanks for bringing it back to my attention with a nice review

We finally got to "Shetland" in our que of tv series to watch. An excellent crime drama set on the remote Shetland Islands off Scotland’s coast.

It took about 10 days for me to get a reply to my inquiry but it was only to tell me that they didn't forget me. It was not an actual reply. My inquiry was not about a problem I'm having so I don't care (it was about some sale pricing). Just updating.

Thanks Marian!
