Save King’s Quest IX!!!
Matt from “Save King’s Quest IX” sends notice to Aeropause to SAVE KINGS QUEST IX! Damn straight. I as in Aeropause strongly agree to let the indie developers continue to make KQIX. Doesn’t Vivendi realize this sort’ve feedback is good news? Look what happened to Family Guy which made a comeback because of the fans. There’s also the Stargate Mod for Half Life 2, well the HL2 mod was halted but it’s the fans man! It’s the fans that represent the pillar of the game community. Not the corporations decision making process. If the gamers aren’t happy, where are the good games?
King’s Quest IX was a fan game that had been in the works since 2002. It was being made by fans for fans, and was going to be made available to all as a free download. Unfortunately, Vivendi Universal Games, which owns the rights to King’s Quest, has recently issued a cease and desist letter to the fans making the game — essentially shutting it down.
So send an email to Vivendi now!
Hey everybody,
I wanted to let everyone know that myself and many other King’s Quest fans have joined together and started an organization to try to save KQIX. (If you don’t know about KQIX, you can visit the website at www.kqix.com).
Our website is: www.savekqix.org
We feel very strongly that our best chance to save the game is through a letter writing campaign. If you care about KQIX and want to see it released, I strongly urge you to take 10 minutes and write a letter to Vivendi Universal Games. Let them know how much you were looking forward to the game.
I know some of you may have already sent an email to Vivendi. That’s great, but we still need you to send a physical letter via the good ol’ postal service. A physical letter will have so much more of an impact than an email. The emails are probably never seen by anyone except a couple of low level people who’s job it is to check those email accounts. It’s easy to dismiss thousands of emails. But it’s hard to ignore thousands of actual letters. Physical letters will have so much more of a VISUAL IMPACT. Think of how those Vivendi executives will feel when the see those stack and stacks of letters!
I know some of you may have also signed the petition that has been circulating. We think the petition is a good idea, but really believe that a personally written letter from each one of you, rather than the same petition, will be EVEN MORE EFFECTIVE. In fact, the person that created the petition is a major part of our organization. Oh, and don’t worry; if you’ve already signed the petition, it WILL be sent to Vivendi. However, we still need you to write a letter!
Visit our webpage for the mailing address to VU Games. Stop by the forums and say hello. Let’s make it known that there are a lot of adventure game fans out here that want to see the game released. We need EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU in order to be successful.
Please, take 10 minutes out of your day to write that letter. It’s the best chance we have to save KQIX!
