I know from lurking that there are some Quest for Glory fans here- anyone else besides myself started playing Hero-U? It’s made by the Coles, who were the original creators of the QFG series, and is essentially an RPG adventure game in the same vein as QFG, with a few differences. For one, you play one character type as opposed to choosing between different classes (fighter, wizard, thief), and the game tracks the main character, Shawn, through his rogue-training classes at Hero University, which makes it a little less free-form than the original series.

Anyway, if there are other Dopers playing, let me know, 'cause I’d love to get some hints about some side-quests I can’t figure out!
