      So true! But why is there such an emotional connection?! It’s more than nostalgia surely

    I'd love to see BS3&4 redone in a 2D style.

      3, definitely! Or see it on android and iphone ... Or a BS2 reforged ;)))

    Charles is a legend. I really hope we see Broken Sword 2-4 get the same 'Reforged' treatment.

      I have no doubt they'll look at BS2. I'd say BS3-4 will be require a bit more work. - Zach

    I have played this game many times over on so many platforms for the last--what 28 years? I can practically play it in my mind.

    Brilliant interview. I met charles a few years ago on my birthday or all days. Made my day out in york extra special. Ive backed the kickstarter and you also provided a question ive been asking revolution for a while now. Release a remaster of BS3. I loved the third installement on ps2.

    I can't say I'm not surprised that Broken Sword 6 won't be out this year, I just knew it wouldn't. I'm fine with that though but I really hope we see more of the game at Gamescom in August, next month.

    Totally agree with the era optimism/pessimism. I was born in 1995 and look back to late 90s early 00s as a much better time. My dad got me into BS/Monkey Island etc and very grateful for it. Excited for Reforged!

    I was freaking out about making the games easier. But then he said "Classic Mode" and I was instantly happy. 😅

    The partial to a bit of handheld in bed made me nearly splill my cuppa tea. I was laughing m head of at that. As for broken sword 4. I never finished that one and do find it the weakest in the series. I know charles would love to release this again one day and i can perfectly see why. However, Broken sword 3 i loved and its close to been my best in the series. I just love the opening with the plane. Loved it on ps2 and have so many fond memories.

    Broken Sword 2 is my favourite game of all time. I hope they reforge this too. I didn’t like the new talking heads in the remastered games.

    Good interview. The thing I found most interesting was the mention of the interest in a Broken Sword series. I've always thought that post-Da Vinci Code there was no chance of a Broken Sword adaptation (much like Pirates of the Caribbean ruined any chance of a Monkey Island film) so I was surprised to hear it was something being talked about.

    Excellent interview! I loved hearing Charles go over the continuity issues and other things he's fixing for the first game, and criticising the moon logic of old adventure games that even modern games fall into the trap of. Cant wait to play Reforged and wish for great things for BS6 !

    In broken sword 4 they had the German Johnny depp voice dubbing. I loved this game so much as a child. I want all reforged. I just can't wait to get it again. I bought it in PS, PC, mobile... This game just sits with me and the story telling was just wonderful.

      @Verg999 4 месяца назад

      I'd guess it's far far away.. Doubt that they are working on it atm, they seemed to be focused on BS1 Reforged

      @@Verg999 was slated 2024 if reforged made it to mid 2024.as its off a couple of months 6 is delayed to 2025.as the workload is only now looking at switching q1 might be possible but a summer realese may be more desirable.of course without further info its all speclative for now.

      Based on what Charles said in the interview, I'd expect it July-September. - Zach
