message: Was Phantasmagoria 2 the first FMV game with a gay kiss?  Also the article says first "playable" bisexual character.  Does anyone know if a bisexual character before Curtis? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Thom Denick (talk • contribs) 19:52, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  First Gay Kiss? 

message: "(Remotely connected to their favorite occupation - for example, in one of the most controversial film sequences the chubby Regina is force fed animal entrails through a funnel until she suffocates.)"
Granted it's been 11 or 12 years since I played the game, but this part doesn't sound right at all.  I remember a sequence where Zoltan force fed his wife dirt using a hand trowel, but there wasn't a funnel involved... much less animal entrails.
And I'm not sure what "chubby" is indicating.  If she was pregnant I think that would be the preferable adjective, or if not, it could be left out. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.98.46.66 (talk) 00:57, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I seem to recall a pretty disgusting sequence in which Zoltan does indeed stuff entrails through a funnel into Regina's (I assume) mouth, naming each of the delicacies before forcing them down the funnel. The greenhouse death scene involved another of Zoltan's wives. I remember two more: one involving a scene in the dining hall and the other taking place in the attic, where a torture device constructed by Zoltan stood. Funny how these things remained in my memory after all these years, but I'm pretty sure what's in the article is correct. I assume "chubby" refers to Regina's obesity (hence the method of killing mentioned). Cromag 06:04, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Phantasmagoria is still my favourite computer game of all time and I still play it today.  Was just reading this article and it says that the UK version was severely cut compared to the US version.  Was just curious, what was edited out of the UK version that appears in the US version?

thread_title:  What was edited out of Phastasmagoria 2? 

message: This article has some design flaws which are not to standard with other Wiki titles, which aren't to my design expertise, but if someone could stylize it properly, it'd be much appreciated by everyone.
I also edited the article's wording and terms to make it seem more formal and less like it is a detailed summary on a fan-site. It was full of weasel wordings and opinionated type text; using "probably" a lot, for example.
The plot overview and the text itself, in general, is pretty well written and is now better because of the weasel word edits but it can be a lot better than it is. All good contributions should be made! Theseven7 09:36, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  little bit confusing? 

message: It states: Phantasmagoria was
"Sierra's first computer game targeted to an adult audience".
However, the Leisure Suit Larry series produced since 1987 were also adult-themed.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.50.1.102 (talk) 19:23, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

replies: text:  Metacritic's still the standard, regardless of whether the page is live. Much of our coverage from the 90s is offline or archived. I'd have no contention here if the Metacritic page never existed (or went out of existence), but it does exist (in archived form), so we use it. czar 15:10, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

message: Was just telling off main page TFA contentmakers, that should be added country of origin and also confusing is, where it was best-selling, worldwide (as Australia is mentioned) or USA? And now am sorry for them, as this information is missing here in the first place. Any ideas, is there source from where to fix it?BirgittaMTh (talk) 04:52, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Best-selling where? 

message: After roaming around where? I would have hoped for more from the gamer. As a point of interest, the city is where it takes place. Yes, it is a bmw. The honda Civic that makes an appearance in my walkthrough to beat the game was actually what started my interest in the sequel. To be sure you can find out if the woman is not or can be married in the game. So for sure, there were particular places that most of the time they had to market the game to older people so that minors would be afraid to play, hence "die in the game." It's for real as you know, that is why you bought it, correct. Make sure the controversy is not programming, I do that quite a bit myself. Keep it real and I hope the game works still fine now as it did back in `95.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:A000:DFC0:6:65EC:B992:5A46:E444 (talk) 10:04, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Skills Set 

message: If at all possible, you can kill characters like in town or whatnot. If at any time you tire of the videos of people playing the game through very quickly, like in `The Legend of Zelda`; Then perhaps you may be better suited to rely on outsider information on how to "watch TV"...as seen in the game ZELDA for the Nintendo. Lets be honest, a lot of people have played the game and have better experience when not trying to beat the game as I did. As a matter of fact, quite a few things have been left out. I hope this helps. As for what needs to be said about this game. The teenager hired to play the part is named Julie Riojas and she stars as Roberta Williams. The helpers name, her husband, is playing Ken Williams. That's pretty much what I found out. The resort home used in the game is supposed to be real, hence all the early hype on this game over 20 years ago.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:A000:1301:877E:B165:424:F6CD:F7BF (talk) 04:02, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Double Whammy 

message: I am not sure if this warrants an "Uxoricide in fiction" category, because the act is never actually committed, and according to the summary, hardly even attempted. It's hinted a lot because this dude killed in a previous existence, but I am not sure if it is WP:DEFINING here. Elizium23 (talk) 01:54, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Uxoricide category 

message: The sequel used a CGI character who was not registered to be in the laser business, so when he came there to eat at 'work,' everybody already knew who was. This video game is better than the first because it's usage of computer generated images or Disney CGI was kept quit until it was used "again." Well, what do you think is the point of beating this game, if the sequel will not let you play the main character, who was never able to show up to work in the first place, because he is not really a paid actor like the other two were, given that they look like familiars. To be honest with you, Curtis Craig looks kind of uneven too, however he is somewhat placed in his home by a `good` family. He looks like he works at CompUSA or was the inventor of Compuserve as directed by CGI actors' in Uncanny (2015.) Maybe if you played the first one, you might have liked to have known how the sequel was filmed by the same people who filmed the previous and original. This is clever and well put. Nobody knew they were not even rock-stars!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.186.58.156 (talk) 08:43, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
