So the next video I released on my Let's Play Channel (while I wait for life to calm down) - is Conquest of Camelot.

I loved these games; they were different than the KQ type games. More story and lore behind them, obviously - so it made them feel richer story wise.

It was like the love child of King's Quest meets Gabriel Knight.

Sigh. I could never get past the Black Knight. He always unhorsed me. It's a pity, too, because I know and like the King Arthur legends.

Well, you can sacrifice Gawaine if you want to move forward. Otherwise it's keeping track of the knight's shield and adjust you lance accordingly while keeping track of your own shield.

I remember the jousting... and I know I passed it... but was probably luck more than skill back in the day.

I guess I was just unlucky. Oh, well.

Yes, I know I can sacrifice Gawain. But won't I need him later?

Probably like QFG, multiple solutions to something where he might have been needed.

OK. I just feel bad for Gawain, having to leave him behind. =\

I guess that later (probably much later) this comes back to bite me?

As I recall, you need to save ALL of your knights or the grail will actually kill you.

Right. That's probably what I was thinking of, back when I tried CoC.

Which is why, when I met the Black Knight, I thought "Stuff it - either I joust him and get killed right now, or leave Gawain and get killed in about a week's time, and not know why. So, might as well joust the guy and try not to get killed."

.........and, of course, I got killed.
