QFG 2 and 4 were absolute masterpieces, with 4 being the pinnacle of the series. The eastern Germanic lore mixed with Eldritch horror, gorgeously painted artwork throughout, and the voice acting was spot on. John Rhys-Davies as narrator was a perfect fit (even though he thought the whole thing was a shitshow), and the 3 villages riffing off each other was fucking hilarious.

When I was a kid it baffled me that the 3 townspeople's voices never matched the text. It was only a few years ago I learned that when those 3 voice actors were in the studio, they would ad-lib the fuck out of their lines. The Coles kept cracking up and just kept the completely wrong lines in there without changing any of the text.

Just started a new playthrough a couple months ago on my steam deck, but with the new(ish) VGA remake of QFG2, since the text parser would be a bitch on the deck.
