Well, if you didn't like it, that's fine by me.

No, I didn't disagree with your point, but I found the TONE of it very
offending.  I started getting into adventue games right after finishing
KQ1 in 1986.  I was so trilled I wanted to get more KQs.  She invariably
had a huge impact on my life, otherwise I wouldn't be trying to work in
the computer gaming industry now! :)  Of course, I've played text games
before KQ, but the graphics blew me away.  

If you didn't like Phantas, you could always return it.  Sierra's had a
30-day money-back gaurantee for a long time.  If you didn't use that
option, it's your loss.

No, I meant Matthew Murray, not you.  It's obvious you don't like ANY of
her works :).  I guess everyone has different tastes.  But I personally
did not like KQ7, KQ5 now Phantas either.
