Introducing ... the PANTS game!

[Rath Darkblade]

I'm confused. What's the original?

[notbobsmith]

I'm confused. What's the original?

You are far away from life, and love, and hope. You are surrounded by PANTS, and it is PANTS you shall become. --Colin Farwalker, KQ7

The word is originally "dust".

[Rath Darkblade]

OK. I'd never played KQ7.

(Hope you liked Keapon's bit!)

"Aside from their enormous size, they appear to be your average garden variety PANTS." --SQ2

and

"Suddenly, an inhuman guttural moan echoes through the narrow caves. You're not sure which direction it came from. The only thing you do know for sure is that you've just soiled your PANTS." --SQ2 (the word was originally "undergarment", so here "Pants" works too)

[Rath Darkblade]

What's the original word for the first one?

(Cue the hero protesting and clutching his pants to himself protectively)

[notbobsmith]

"Aside from their enormous size, they appear to be your average garden variety PANTS." --SQ2

What's the original word for the first one?

"mushrooms"

[Rath Darkblade]

Oh. Where in SQ2 does that happen? I can't remember any mushrooms.

[notbobsmith]

Oh. Where in SQ2 does that happen? I can't remember any mushrooms.

I'm not sure myself. I go through the scripts of the game looking for something funny. From context, it looks like the description of a scene on the planet's surface.

[Rath Darkblade]

OK. Your turn!

[notbobsmith]

"The pod, considered to be nothing more than another piece of scrap, is taken aboard a robot commanded garbage freighter. Unfortunately these robots have no regard for PANTS." --SQ3

The original word was organics

[Rath Darkblade]

Yes, I remember that one. And that's how the game starts, yes?

Money.

[notbobsmith]

"What's happened? Who was that guy with the overdeveloped hair dryer? Why did you let yourself be talked into jumping into some strange shimmering PANTS?" --SQ4

ships

I go forward with total confidence in my ship and my crew, yet I am vaguely uneasy... I cannot put memories of traveling to the future and meeting my son out of my mind. Each night my dreams are haunted by the PANTS of the woman he said would one day be my wife. I know she's out there... Somewhere...

But that's not important right now. The fate of trillions rides on the PANTS I may have to make in the next several hours.

[Rath Darkblade]

Oh dear.
