Knightmare VR
-
If anyone else had suggested this, I would have verbally shot them down for a whole variety of reasons. But, it being Tim, I thought about it some more.
In my opinion, Knightmare VR could have only two problems. Firstly, it will make the floor puzzle a thing of the past (unless you can blindfold the avatars?). Secondly, and more importantly, it violates the one guiding principle of all children's gameshows: kids want to be on TV. (If their avatars are, then surely they aren't?)
That said, I reserve judgement until I've seen it, of course. And I know that Tim Child can truly reproduce the original atmosphere and tension of the show. And I think that the viewer 'phone-in idea is an excellent way to involve the audience. But I honestly can't decide if I think that this is a good idea. So I will wait and see...
Also, I have written up a few ideas on why I liked Knightmare, and how I would have gone about bringing it back (9 and 7 pages). http://www.rjlee.dyndns.org/knightmare/
Plus, the Timegate trailer looks fantastic...

Hi rjlee, and welcome to the forum (notes first post) - how long have you been keeping track of all this then?
I agree with those points fully - the blindfold idea is certainly something to keep and floor puzzles also. Am noseying over to your site now.
Also, BVA - thanks very much for the update!

(Sorry if this is off-topic, but I was asked...)
Well, I'd like to say that I've been here since the beginning, but unfortunately I missed the first season of Knightmare because I didn't know it existed... Anyway, watched most of it the first time around and loved it to pieces.
Then a few years ago, I stumbled onto Knightmare.com (then knightmare.clara.net) and read great wadges of it with interest, and I just really came back to it last week just to see what had changed...

Am I the only one - slightly weary of the sound of the new format?
Surely if - as the report suggests - it's just one person, it won't be anywhere near as fun as when there was the mumbling advisors to send the dungeoneer to their death?
