Quoted from FrederikFrost:I don't want to rain on anyones parade, but can someone tell me why Willy Wonka is such a good theme??
Good question. I think Manimal's response was response about the nostalgia factor was really good, and could be said about this hobby from a wider perspective than just this game.
I also agree with Aurich that the film has not aged well, but has a similar visual style and genre (vintage children's fantasy) as JJP's biggest-selling game, so I could understand why they would choose that license.
In Denmark this may make more sense to you--I spent most of my younger years in Europe, and so I love The Adventures of Tintin series of books. I would be absolutely thrilled if a pin was made for Tintin in the original art style with JJPotC-level code depth. Though I think it would be a monster hit in most of Europe unfortunately it would probably flop in the US--even after the fantastic Spielberg film, which also must have underwhelmed as there is still not a sequel for it, I regret.
Quoted from Thunderbird:Seeing Pat play was fun too. It was obvious the love and fun he puts into his work, by the look on his face.
My favorite part of the stream by far.
