Which is your favorite monster in this game and for what reason?

___________________________

Mine is the Cheetaur. It's great to fight, it has a great reward. It can be used for so manything in fan fiction. It' an original QFG monster created by the Coles.

I've chosen Saurus Rex as my favourite. I always go for the tough ones. <grin>

The Troll, for two reasons.

1: He carrys a lot of cash.

2: In the VGA version, he's the only one that remains a challenge even after you max out your stats. Because there are times when your sword misses and you have to dodge/parry the attack from his big stone hammer.

Till next time stay cool

I voted goblin. The way they just politely line up to be slaughtered is just perfect.

Oh please, goblins are really, really weak!

Till next time stay cool

I've always been quite fond of the Goblins... Mostly because of the music that accompanies theim...

*dun dun dunt dun dun dunt dunt... dunt dunt dunt dun dunt*

I like it...

I liked the cheetaur. I'd think a mini-cheetaur would make a great pet.

And that's what makes them attractive!

Goblins. They're so easy to take down, you can fight dozens of them in one day and get bundles of cash easily, even as a low level warrior. Plus, the Goblin battle song, written by tokeloshe I think on the VUG boards, just tickled my funny bone.

Thank you Spearflight.

Hey Tok... (do you mind if I call you Tok?)

Could you post that here? I must've missed it, or ignored it, at the VUGames forum.

Cheetaur!! I loooooovvee cats in any form, they just jump out of nowhere and surprise you, they're a fun challenge - can't really cast spells on them, they're too fast - and they're a really cool blueish color. Oh yeah, and the basis for the best-ever Erasmus joke. "What's the difference between a cheetaur and a comma? - A comma is a pause at the end of its clause, and a cheetaur has claws at the end of its paws." *giggles*

I like the Goblins they are really cute - especially when you go to their hole and kill them and read the descriptions afterwards

I'm getting tired of saying this. . .

Why doesn't anybody give cheetaurs their due as sapients? Everybody seems to assume they're just big dumb animals, but the facts are definitely against that. They're human-animal "taur" breeds, every other species of which is as intelligent as a human; often more so.

Try looking at the cheetaur's head in the guild; it says it right there.

Goblins, for most of the reasons already listed.

You are most welcome tokeloshe.

And I second the nomination for the re-posting of the Goblin battle song. That was a classic.

And Bob: Chill dude. It's not the end of the world. A lot of animals in RL are just recently being discovered to be a heck of a lot smarter than traditional thought dictates. (Like the octopus. Did you know that they play, and learn from certain scenarios just as easily as a dolphin or a human?) Cheetaurs will get their dues sooner or later man.

Yeah, and no one ever said that they weren't smart. I know they are, I've already put that in my Spielburg fic. (It will hopefully be ready to post near Christmas.) Besides everyone thinks they're cool so there's no reason to get hot headed. Have a drink on me.

The one thing I think mankind should have learned already, is just how little we actually know.

hihihiii, cheetaur is at the peak. my vote counts!

by the way, i never thought that cheetaur is a dumb, but not that bright too ... since they don't use weapons, only use their claw instead. but hey, who need artificial weapon if already have organic one, right? ;D

but still, i think sheema has better intelligence than a cheetaur. she talks

sure cheetaur is a tough opponent (rather than a monster), but then again, liontaur is more tough and civilized i think ... maybe liontaur and cheetaur have bloodrelated in race or species?

CHEETAUR IS THE BEST! <- in QfG1

I would not say that the cheetaurs were any less intellegent then any of the other races, merely of a different culture that maybe emphasises the use of ones natural strengths in the hunt, and on a solitary nomadic existance as apposed the the liontaurs prides.

Also, it may be that cheetaurs don't want to talk to the hero, after all every time they so much as ask for directions he clobbers them over the head with a sharp pointy object.

Well why not? Their claws are valuable.

I think the fact that they started the whole thing would be the reason for that.

Goblins... fodder mania!!!

Whoo!!!

Goblins take the lead!

NNNOOOOO

Someone please vote for Cheetaurs!

aw, why is it has to be gobs?
i hate gobs ... i rather choose elf (but there isn't any)

well my personal favorite is goblis, but i voted vor it anyway......

The big, bad Cheetaur is my pick. I don't understand the name (they're panthers, not cheetahs. Hell, a panther is a leopard anyway, might as well call them Panthtaurs or Leoptaurs, but I guess Cheetaur sounds better , that and they're fast) or what they're even doing in good 'ol temperate Germanic-based Spielburg, but go figure.

And my theory as to why they never utter a word is that they want to eat you. How often do you talk to a steak just before you eat it? If you recall, I also remember Leopardmen being quite intelligent, but they don't say one word to you when they attack you and die

*nods*


Personally, I think Panthaurs sounds a whole heck of a lot cooler. *shrugs*

Hands down the goblin. You can toy with him and get your dodge and parry stats up in no time. In that respect, the saurus would be the same I suppose, but you can get a few silvers from the body at least.

Go ahead and bring Eric into this, why doncha

*sniffles*

where are the Antwerps???

There's only one Antwerp in the entire game! But if you kill it... it'll multiply and you'll save the Antwerp race from extiction!!

Till next time stay cool

Wasn't there another one inside the brigand fortress?

Aye, that there was. And there's a whole nest of them inside the tree by the Healer's house. ( WARNING!! Klausseism detected!!!! )

They did say there were an endangered species... they didn't say that the antwerp outside the cave was the last of the species, so that makes sense.

Till next time stay cool

There was also one inside the Brigand fortress, that if you tripped over the last tripwire, you'd get antwerped.

I think that one has been mentioned already, Orion.

Till next time stay cool

D'oh! I completely missed Tok's post when I read this the first time!...

Don't worry, it happens.

Till next time stay cool

i like the goblins cause there are funny little guys i like the one in the bush that moves when your back is turned but stops when u look at it

Cheetaurs has my vote!

I love em, they look so cool! I actually fight them just to looks at em hehe!

Black panthers are one of my favorite wild cats so of course i'd vote for something that looks like one

The antwerps are funny though, they're my second favorites. One time I attacked it just to show a friend what happened then I accidently saved it so I spent a lot of time trying to beat the game by staying away from the center of the screen when in the forest so it wouldn't fall on me...but it wound up being impossible to do for long hehe.

As it should.

go go goblins but meeps rule

Some people eat meeps.

what! no they don't your mean wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

You should meet Maghrabi.

Mmmmmmmmm!!!!

Now I'll leave you open to if that was for Mags, or for the Meeps
