I believe I recall PushingUpRoses referencing this game with apparent distaste for it in one video, but I've never actually seen anyone talk about it in-depth until now. Thanks for the video. :)
BUT D00D! If you rearrange the letters in "Sans", you get "Nass", which is almost "Ness"! Also, if you put "Sans" and "Ness" together, rearrange the letters, and change a few, you get "Bullshit"!
Now that you're uploading more frequently, I've noticed an increase in quality and I'm surprised but mostly happy and eager to watch your videos. They're not over the top but they're not lackluster either. They're just in the right spot. Keep it up!
Well, the unfortunate thing is cursed pretty badly. When you return her horn she becomes a proper unicorn, like the ones on little girls' colorful school folders. :P
You pretty much echoed my sentiments on this game exactly - unfairly hated, actually pretty good, just don't go in expecting King's Quest. Good vid, too. It's great to see your quality only getting better as you go on.
The Rebuttal: Starting with King Graham. King Graham doesn't always wear a hat with a feather in it. In his old age, he has hung up his adventure outfit in the closet. Perhaps he is wearing a crown because he is at or near the throne. Maybe "NO!" is not a good expression. What would you say if you're pretty girl friend suddenly turned to stone? It might be "SARAH!!!!!" or "OH MY GOD!!!" "NOOOOO!" is pretty close to "OH MY GOD!!!" Remember, this is a royal story. We need a dignified as well as an exciting expression. 3-D is criticized. It's hard to get use to, but it can be done. King's Quest Mask of Eternity had the option of watching and playing the game in 1st person (through the eyes of Connor) or 3rd person (through the eyes of the player). Fighting with the fists is highly undesirable. It takes longer for Connor to defeat his enemy; and he is much more likely to die in the fight. It is best for Connor to go to his house first and get his dagger. There are very few clues in this game. It would have been helpful if Connor would have said out loud, "Look at all these monsters. I need to run home and get my dagger." The 16th century way of talking is interesting. I took note of some of the expressions Connor uttered like "Zounds." It's a lot better than using our modern F word. Scarfulhu praises King's Quest 6 and Alexander's ability to defeat his enemies using his wits and not a weapon. That is not realistic. We all know that princes in the old days commonly wore swords at their sides. Where was Prince Alexander's sword? Al-Hazareth even wore his sword as the bridegroom at his fake wedding ceremony. Movements may be awkward, but that's part of the game. You have to get use to moving Connor with your keyboard. There are some interesting movements like the long jump and the backwards flip. You have a point about King's Quest Mask of Eternity not being as colorful as the previous King's Quest games. Star Trek was like that. Star Trek with Kirk and Spock was very colorful. Then STTNG with Picard and Riker was not as colorful. Then Star Trek Voyager (with Capt. Janeway) and Star Trek Enterprise (with Capt. Archer) were even less colorful. You're right. Placing a key by a portrait is not a good idea. It could easily be found and taken by the janitor. Where would you hide a key? It would be on your person, or a nail on the wall, or in a drawer. As long as we've found the key, who's complaining? I'm not. Again, you complain too much. You complain about not dying in the Dimension of Death. Well, you die easy enough if you make a right turn after unlocking the gate to the compound and face five enemies when you reach the corner. And it's not too hard to die when you take on the Commander Skeleton who guards the Bridge of Life. You should have mentioned the Shadow Bane that threw Connor out of the Dimension of Death until he (Connor) acquired the magic ring. How did the young blond man and his sister get passed the Shadow Bane without the magic ring? And how did they get through the gate without the key? King's Quest 8 is not bad just because it's not King's Quest. King's Graham's children grew up and left the nest. SOMEONE had to take over. THAT'S what's bad about King's Quest 8. It has a bad ending, or, no ending at all. "The End" leaves you hanging. King Graham should have given the kingdom (of Daventry) over to Connor and Sarah (after they've gotten married) while he (King Graham) retires with his wife on the Isle of the Crown in the Land of the Green Isles. On the subject of insufficient clues again: The part where Connor must solve the blocks on the bridge to cross to the other side of the Barren Region is woefully wanting. I was unable to solve it. I had to buy the walk-through book to finish the game. Nostalgia isn't why I spent hours playing King's Quest 8. It's about a champion who is trying to save the world. What quest is greater than that?
I remember this game well. I was so excited as a kid getting this and it was ok till I hit the Dimension of Death which took forever, I thought the ghost characters were un-killable, and there was a game breaking glitch which needed patched. I was a poor kid with dial up internet and my parents were super restrictive so I just passed it. To this day thinking about this game brings up the Dimension of Death in my mind and the horror that awaited me after the ghost bear. The rest of the game is just a little forgettable until you get to the ice world, killed all the griffins, and got nothing to show for it, or if you played your cards right you can become invincible before the last boss. Also, only play on hard difficulty, otherwise it was too easy.
I think Mask of Eternity is still good as it's own game, kinda like a spinoff, and I always picture in the King's Quest universe of every region and lands, it acts way differently with different themes and not trying to focus on one theme or one setting in themselves, like how Super Mario or Sonic stages does it, having a cotton-candy land to rusty-nails land, so every King Quest game themselves got different variety in their own games. I like Mask of Eternity because it tried something different, and not in a awful way... but in a "it is odd but could been worst" good way, and in a charming, grim and kinda goofy way.
Roberta Williams pretty much writing off Adventure Games is kinda... dickish in my mind, especially considering she pretty much MADE Adventure Games as we know it. I'm glad there are new Adventure Games coming out these days, especially from Wadjet Eye. Have you ever thought of reviewing any of those? Or is there a cut off date for your reviews?
I've been watching your videos for a couple of years now, so happy to see how much your channel has grown since then. Congratulations on the 30K subscribers! ^_^
When I was about 7 years old I'd watch my Grandfather play this game as well as Nox. He had like pages of notes on the puzzles you see more of later in the game and even let me help sometimes by using his healing items when his health got low. This video really doesn't show it but there were some cool puzzles and scenarios further on in the game and as far as I remember the really generic stuff is mostly around in the first couple worlds. I know for a lot of people it's just a clunky action adventure that's too disjointed from the series it's named for, but it was still a great game I feel and was a big piece of my childhood. It's like Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs. On its own, it's a great game with much to its own merit, but it has that "Amnesia" tag and so people were upset that it was as wildly different as it was. Also that unicorn really was a unicorn. You find its horn, restore it, and then it helps you iirc.
I like how this game outsold its superior LucasArts competition back in the day, and yet Grim Fandango is the one that became a cult classic and got a second chance at a new audience with its Remastered version. So much for sales, hmm?
First episode I watch after subscribing and I learn your name. A new record! Still, I like your stuff Scarfulu. Even if I never heard of it. (Well, aside from Soul Blade, I grew up with Soul Caliber 2)
The year is 2000 and my parents have decided to buy a new house for our family. We spend the day moving into our new home and I am introduced to my new bedroom. Once left alone, 6 year old me begins to explore my new surroundings. Whilst looking through my new cupboards I see something plastic on one of the top shelf. I pull a chair towards the cupboard and stand on it to get a closer look. It is a copy of Kings Quest: The Mask of Eternity. I pull it out and run to the family computer (windows 95) and insert the disk. While it installs I flip through the brochure that came with the game. It details all the monsters and enemies I will have to face in my upcoming adventure. This is actually a true story and I think it's crazy that this is what started my love for games. It's awesome that someone out there unwittingly left a random game behind in the back of their cupboard and thag simple act changed how my life would play out. Thanks for the video. It was fun going down nostalgia alley and learning more about the background of the Kings Quest franchise.
I'm finishing up this game soon myself. Haven't touched it in at least a decade and a half. Being the older lad that I am now, I was actually able to rid myself of the mind numbing choppiness that occurred in this game when I picked it up so many years ago. Once THAT was handled and I re-mapped some of the keys (jump is "insert"? I think not. *spacebar*), and went from arrow keys to the wsda, it became infinitely more playable. Oh, for more things that don't belong in a King Quest Game, you need only acquire Freeya's sceptre. Take it with you to the Dimension of Death and offer it to her. You will not believe your ears.
14:26 OH XD!! That was such a clever and awesome reference XD!! I was thinking about Undertale when I heard the name Asriel, and you made it into an awesome and creative joke XD!! Great job XD!!
Glad I found you thru Caddy when you both did Broken Sword 2. I also have a soft spot for point and clicks, and it's a shame those games are just a product of a time long gone.
It would make more sense if this was intended as a Quest for Glory game, but it's surprising it didn't start as one. What's also surprising is you mentioned them throwing away the fairy tale elements but not mention the lost Davidson version which does away with the violence, combat, gore and... religious themes.
There was no lost Davidson version. That came from one book not written by anyone affiliated with Sierra; the owner of the KQ Omnipedia took that and ran with it. Roberta clarified there was no Davidson version, but for a brief time when Davidson was in charge (Sept 1996-January 1997) she had project managers put above her by Davidson. But the Davidsons left CUC in January 1997, the game continued development until 1998. It started development in 1994 before Sierra was sold to CUC and combat was always part of the game from the beginning as well as the religious themes.
i went from atari 2600 to PC intel at 166 if i remember correctly. first game i played was King's Quest: Mask of Eternity. i went from atari graphics to kings quest... and i lived in a country with almost 0 gaming entertainment at the time, so i never played any other king quest or even ever seen a 3d game. This game blew my mind.
Connor, man. This is your channel, you can do what you want, and I'll love your videos regardless. However, I do miss the original intro of the episodes; "Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Scarfhulu show, where winter garments meet Elder Gods." That made me laugh every time and was simply clever. I'm not trying to tell you how to run the channel, but I really liked that intro.
+Scarfulhu That kind of surprises me that you didn't like it much. Don't bring it back if you don't enjoy doing it, man. Thanks for replying. Love your stuff. P.S. YoushouldtotallydoacrossovervideowithJordanUnderneath
I played this game when I was a kid, and even though I never beat it without cheating, I actually really liked it. I mean, it's no King's Quest, but it isn't exactly one of the worst games out there.
Damn i used to love Mask of Eternity when i was younger, and i still kinda do to this day. Mainly because it was my introduction to the Kings Quest franchise which has since become one of my favorites.
You have to do the other six games. I am very picky about reviews for King's Quest. Yours and Pawdugan's are the only good ones out there. Do the rest, please!
I think the monster in the outhouse thing was in emulation of Duke Nukem 3D. There was an article back in the day written about how Roberta Williams had been playing a bunch of that, the original Tomb Raider & Super Mario 64 to get her head into 3D game design. (Unfortunately, the results were a bit... uh... mixed at best.)
@7:09 The farting monster that jumped out of the outhouse instakilled me on sight with his newspaper, too. I stopped playing immediately and never touched the game again. Don't call it a rage-quit, though. It was something else entirely.
KQ8 reminds me a lot of Alone In The Dark, and maybe some early survival horror titles :P basically wander around, kill enemies, solve puzzles, that sorta thing.
You should probably do a video on the kings quest remaster thingy that takes place in multiple episodes. Really nice, i'm a kid so I don't know if its good to a hardcore kings quest fan but I really like it, and I suck at puzzle games making me not want to play them.. I actually love it already... you know what wait for all the episodes to come out and then buy all the episodes along with the game, that way you have all the content at once.
10:42
I think the really funny part of that joke is the fact that it's not far from being just as rediculous as MatPat's theory.
You spelled "ridikulous" rong.
Easily your best video.
+Caddicarus You think so? I really wanted this one to stand out so I'm glad.
@@Scarfulhu who are you?
Lmfao this is probably the worst review on RUclips
"I had the name first though, so get off my turf."
From now on, to get on Scarf's nerve's, im gonna name all my video game characters "Connor"
+MrShyguy999 do you wanna see jesus?
Scarfulhu Maybe.

did scarfulhu
really make a joke about game theory's 'SANS IS NESS' theory?
okay you have one more subscriber
BUT D00D! If you rearrange the letters in "Sans", you get "Nass", which is almost "Ness"!
Also, if you put "Sans" and "Ness" together, rearrange the letters, and change a few, you get "Bullshit"!

I spy some Bionicles in the background. Clearly you are a man of good taste.
13:00 You can't expect supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you
+Horatio Ringstinger I like you.

Scarfulhu's obviously never seen Bourne Supremacy. Newspapers are brutal.

Now that you're uploading more frequently, I've noticed an increase in quality and I'm surprised but mostly happy and eager to watch your videos. They're not over the top but they're not lackluster either. They're just in the right spot. Keep it up!
That "unicorn" is going to give nightmares. It unsettles me a lot for some reason...
+Celitha Indubitably.
+Celitha It's Like Majora's Mask levels of scary
Well, the unfortunate thing is cursed pretty badly. When you return her horn she becomes a proper unicorn, like the ones on little girls' colorful school folders. :P
My grandfather enjoyed this game when I was a kid. I have fond memories watching him play it as a kid.
About that Asriel bit...
In this world, it's MEME or BE MEMED.
Nah but really congrats on 3k subs. You've earned another one BTW.

Scarfhulu, you don't need to thank us, we need to thank you for making great content that brings smiles to our faces.

Hey scarfthulu, Great moves. Keep it up, proud of you!

One of my childhood favourites. Has a great atmosphere and gameplay even the controls are slightly shoddy at times. Well worth a play
10:40 HOLY SHIT xD
That HAS to be one of the best jokes I've ever seen in a video :'D
-Son, we're taking away your dramatic endings and sending you to boarding school!
-3:15
I think Mask of Eternity is still good as it's own game, kinda like a spinoff,
and I always picture in the King's Quest universe of every region and lands,
it acts way differently with different themes and not trying to focus on one theme or one setting in themselves,
like how Super Mario or Sonic stages does it, having a cotton-candy land to rusty-nails land,
so every King Quest game themselves got different variety in their own games.
I like Mask of Eternity because it tried something different, and not in a awful way...
but in a "it is odd but could been worst" good way, and in a charming, grim and kinda goofy way.
The setup for that hybrid joke was brilliant. Great review guy, thanks for sharing!

I'm glad there are new Adventure Games coming out these days, especially from Wadjet Eye. Have you ever thought of reviewing any of those? Or is there a cut off date for your reviews?
I liked this game pretty much. Also your game theory joke was perfect.
I love to see the new content on a regular basis. Scarfulu videos just get my dopamine levels rising lol 😊
That jab at game theory was amazing.
I've been watching your videos for a couple of years now, so happy to see how much your channel has grown since then. Congratulations on the 30K subscribers! ^_^
I hadn't the slightest idea that he was going for a "Sans is Ness" theory reference there xD Nice one!
You actually had me laughing at 14:53! This is by far your best video yet! Keep up the good work! :)
I'm not gonna lie I discovered you this week and watch all your vids in a day
+Z Warrior You're not the only one who did that
When I was about 7 years old I'd watch my Grandfather play this game as well as Nox. He had like pages of notes on the puzzles you see more of later in the game and even let me help sometimes by using his healing items when his health got low.

Also that unicorn really was a unicorn. You find its horn, restore it, and then it helps you iirc.
Scarf I love you please never stop. Your voice makes me love
You've been killin' it with this new release schedule!!!
I like how this game outsold its superior LucasArts competition back in the day, and yet Grim Fandango is the one that became a cult classic and got a second chance at a new audience with its Remastered version. So much for sales, hmm?

easily one my favourite channels on youtube...on to the next 30000
The year is 2000 and my parents have decided to buy a new house for our family. We spend the day moving into our new home and I am introduced to my new bedroom. Once left alone, 6 year old me begins to explore my new surroundings. Whilst looking through my new cupboards I see something plastic on one of the top shelf. I pull a chair towards the cupboard and stand on it to get a closer look. It is a copy of Kings Quest: The Mask of Eternity. I pull it out and run to the family computer (windows 95) and insert the disk. While it installs I flip through the brochure that came with the game. It details all the monsters and enemies I will have to face in my upcoming adventure.
This is actually a true story and I think it's crazy that this is what started my love for games. It's awesome that someone out there unwittingly left a random game behind in the back of their cupboard and thag simple act changed how my life would play out.
Thanks for the video. It was fun going down nostalgia alley and learning more about the background of the Kings Quest franchise.
I'm finishing up this game soon myself. Haven't touched it in at least a decade and a half. Being the older lad that I am now, I was actually able to rid myself of the mind numbing choppiness that occurred in this game when I picked it up so many years ago. Once THAT was handled and I re-mapped some of the keys (jump is "insert"? I think not. *spacebar*), and went from arrow keys to the wsda, it became infinitely more playable.
Oh, for more things that don't belong in a King Quest Game, you need only acquire Freeya's sceptre. Take it with you to the Dimension of Death and offer it to her. You will not believe your ears.
14:26 OH XD!! That was such a clever and awesome reference XD!!
I was thinking about Undertale when I heard the name Asriel, and you made it into an awesome and creative joke XD!!
Great job XD!!
oh, hey, Scarfulhu, you have a classic Kopaka on your shelf. Cool. Bionicle respect.
You used Professor Juice in your video.
I LOVE YOU EVEN MORE
Glad I found you thru Caddy when you both did Broken Sword 2. I also have a soft spot for point and clicks, and it's a shame those games are just a product of a time long gone.
I was not ready for the Doctor Who reference, but I appreciate it.
I have been looking for a good review of this game for ages! Great to see this one!
great review! and I need to say this, you remind me of Leo Dicaprio in the "Man in the Iron mask" film hahaha
Scarfulhu pls. I was about to fix dinner but now I have to watch this.
I love this game :(
It would make more sense if this was intended as a Quest for Glory game, but it's surprising it didn't start as one.
What's also surprising is you mentioned them throwing away the fairy tale elements but not mention the lost Davidson version which does away with the violence, combat, gore and... religious themes.
There was no lost Davidson version. That came from one book not written by anyone affiliated with Sierra; the owner of the KQ Omnipedia took that and ran with it.

Doesn't make an Undertale joke but makes a "Is Sans Ness" joke.
#exposed
Every Kings Quest fan to Sierra: ARE YOU CRAZY? ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?
Your name is Connor? My name is Connor too man!
It's funny how initial popularity doesn't mean anything in the long run since Grim Fandango is way more famous than King's Quest 8.
i just LOVE that at 14:52 you can see where he wears his headphones lol.
When this came out, my computer wasn't anywhere near powerful enough to run it.
I've been subbed for a many moons, keep up the good work!
I'm glad to see you're getting so many subs, love your stuff man
Connor, man. This is your channel, you can do what you want, and I'll love your videos regardless. However, I do miss the original intro of the episodes; "Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Scarfhulu show, where winter garments meet Elder Gods." That made me laugh every time and was simply clever.
I'm not trying to tell you how to run the channel, but I really liked that intro.
+pureblackeagle I was never a fan of it myself. Maybe it'll come back someday though.
+Scarfulhu That kind of surprises me that you didn't like it much. Don't bring it back if you don't enjoy doing it, man.
Thanks for replying. Love your stuff.
P.S. YoushouldtotallydoacrossovervideowithJordanUnderneath
OOooooh yes, another Scarfulhu video. I love this new upload rate!
Loved hearing the Legend of Kyrandia music.
"This puts a wangus on my pangus" is now my new favourite phrase
FINALLY! YES! FINALLY! Somebody I follow that does adventure games reviewed Mask of Eternity!!!
I played this game when I was a kid, and even though I never beat it without cheating, I actually really liked it. I mean, it's no King's Quest, but it isn't exactly one of the worst games out there.
it's no King's Quest, but at least it's also not Ultima 9.
I'm really jealous of that Kopaka on your shelf. I could never find one as a kid.
Damn i used to love Mask of Eternity when i was younger, and i still kinda do to this day. Mainly because it was my introduction to the Kings Quest franchise which has since become one of my favorites.
+SnoopingTurtle Same. Still love this game today....
congrats on 30,000 subscribers!
King's Quest 8 was my first King's Quest, and it led me to eventually buy the old 'King's Quest Coleccition' :P
This is a funny video, and you have a lot of effort put in so that you can find your own style. Have fun and keep it up! This is of great quality!
I have never seen someone rock glasses with so much swag
+m.taimoor Azam They're designer glasses, these ones. Cost me a pretty penny.
You should upload more often, so few youtubers talk about point and click adventure games :)
And to that undertale reference I'm gonna say the one smart thing that came to my head: "Have you ever heard, of a talking flower?"
8:03 - That voice.
One is a genius, the other's insane.
Someone could pass for a Maurice LaMarche.
That colour pallet, tho. ¬,¬
INDUBITABLY
Thank you so much for the joke on Game Theory
You have to do the other six games. I am very picky about reviews for King's Quest. Yours and Pawdugan's are the only good ones out there. Do the rest, please!
“Like a hybrid” I love it
Also hi there Rosie.
You got the juice even as the voice actor ^^
Wow Scarfulhu! Great moves, keep it up
I think the monster in the outhouse thing was in emulation of Duke Nukem 3D. There was an article back in the day written about how Roberta Williams had been playing a bunch of that, the original Tomb Raider & Super Mario 64 to get her head into 3D game design. (Unfortunately, the results were a bit... uh... mixed at best.)
That makes a lot of sense - I can see those influences in the game for sure.
Love ya Connor. Always have, always will.
The sans is ness joke got you another sub
@7:09 The farting monster that jumped out of the outhouse instakilled me on sight with his newspaper, too. I stopped playing immediately and never touched the game again. Don't call it a rage-quit, though. It was something else entirely.
Can I spare Asriel? I have many HOPES and DREAMS.
Now that every time something bad happens to me, I'm gonna shout "Nuuuuuuuuuuu" like Connor.
''a while back''?
wow, the time does fly huh?
i love the "i'm not a fan" save xD
Ah this game... This game... Is actually alright. Pity it dosen't have that much in common with the other King's quest games.
Holy hell. 3 videos within 1 month!!!
This game is basically "King's Quest" in-name-only.
omg omg omg i just noticed the kopaka nuva and rahkshi behind you
das cool
KQ8 reminds me a lot of Alone In The Dark, and maybe some early survival horror titles :P basically wander around, kill enemies, solve puzzles, that sorta thing.
Tis beyond my reach! Tis beyond- Tis- Tis- Tis beyond my reach!
if you ever did a full review of Grim Fandango or any Tim Schaefer game, it'd make my life
Love the legend of kyrandia music!
You should probably do a video on the kings quest remaster thingy that takes place in multiple episodes. Really nice, i'm a kid so I don't know if its good to a hardcore kings quest fan but I really like it, and I suck at puzzle games making me not want to play them.. I actually love it already... you know what wait for all the episodes to come out and then buy all the episodes along with the game, that way you have all the content at once.
