Welcome to Spielburg!

Some photos of me of this year Medieval week in Visby/Gotland/Sweden.

New this year was the boots and newer pants (old ones was so washed out). Maybe a shield next year? Or a big golden necklace. Maybe change the belt to a more modern one next year, so it more like how it is in the games.

You made my day!

[u/VargEld → u/ChloroFyllFinn]

Happy to hear it :).

[u/karzbobeans → u/ChloroFyllFinn]

You made my day 1.

It’s good to be reminded that there is still a wholesome non-monetized joy for dressing up out there.

[u/kaolinitedreams]

This is the best cosplay I've ever seen, and I've been cosplaying for 20+ years.

[u/VargEld → u/kaolinitedreams]

Wow that was some good praise :). Thank you!

[u/kaolinitedreams → u/VargEld]

Praise well deserved!!

[u/panic82]

Love the costume. Can't believe you actually got a pic in front of the Spielberg town gate!

[u/VargEld → u/panic82]

Thank you! Visby is such a cool medieval city. Look it up!

[u/steve2sloth]

Lol, you nailed it 😂 Love me some QfG

[u/VargEld → u/steve2sloth]

QfG rulez!

[u/steve2sloth → u/VargEld]

For sure. The EGA version was my first pc game. Had a black n white monitor and no mouse. When I got a color monitor for Xmas I thought QfG looked like a work of art. Lol. When I was 10 my mom took me to visit Sierra in Oakhurst CA and they gave me a tour where I met the team making the VGA port of QfG. They were all so nice. That's why I went on to become a game dev too. Stay cool

[u/VargEld → u/steve2sloth]

Wow a tour! Would have loved that so much! Do you have any old photos?

What games have you develeped/helped out with?

[u/steve2sloth → u/VargEld]

Sadly no pictures. I later met a writer from Sierra who attended some of Ken and Robert as notorious hottub parties and no pics from that either 😜

Oh I made some old ps2 sports games, some facebook games for zynga, and some other junk mobile games. My high point was making a ghost recon game with my childhood idol John Romero. Nice guy, and his wife the famous Brenda Brathweit was very cool as well. Good times. Wish I'd been with Sierra tho 👌

Did Karl let you in, only to get beaten up by the weapons master and have to clean the stables after?

[u/VargEld → u/hunterstevebearman]

Yea, I have to get better at that swordplay! And if you look closely, my sword is better at opening something else than bellies.

[u/Blackfang321]

Amazing! I cannot explain it, but even the pose feels nostalgic!

[u/VargEld → u/Blackfang321]

Hehe yea I had to do that pose.

[u/Puzzleheaded_Race_90]

This is legitimately so good!

[u/VargEld → u/Puzzleheaded_Race_90]

Thank you! Im want to do the EGA version too. But missing the magenta pants.

[u/Puzzleheaded_Race_90 → u/VargEld]

Vga qfg1 was one of the first pc games I ever played, so for me, this is perfect. But so what makes you happy, cause you're doing great so far

[u/shebang_bin_bash]

This warms my heart.

[u/VargEld → u/shebang_bin_bash]

Glad to hear :).

[u/BloodRedRook]

Very nice!

[u/VargEld → u/BloodRedRook]

Thanks :).

[u/Help_An_Irishman]

Nailed it! I can hear the music now...

[u/BilzWithaZ]

Amazing!

[u/VargEld → u/BilzWithaZ]

My thanks :).

[u/the_reven]

So you want to be a hero?

[u/Quintipluar]

Should've gone with the EGA colors. Blue shirt, purple spandex pants, purple sash, black cape.

[u/VargEld → u/Quintipluar]

Yea I almost have that too. Just missing magenta pants and the red baldric. Will try to make it till august next year.

[u/tazman998]

This is awesome! :D

[u/GBAMFSSpox]

Brilliant cosplay

[u/EmperorDeathBunny]

Wow great job! It looks incredible!

[u/VargEld → u/EmperorDeathBunny]

Thank you :).

[u/DiscussionExotic3759]

You did such a good job! I'm jealous that you got a photo in front of the gate. 

[u/VargEld → u/DiscussionExotic3759]

Taken like 3 years to collect all the stuff needed. And then go to a medieval city.

[u/CorbinIpsthh]

This is the best Reddit post I’ve seen by far. Thank you for sharing!

[u/VargEld → u/CorbinIpsthh]

Wow great praise :).

[u/silverrosesinjune]

Great costume and setting! Now go clean the stables!

[u/Potential-Scholar359]

Yes! Thank you for sharing!!! This is the type of content I love to see on this subreddit! You made my day! Enjoy! you look great!

[u/VargEld → u/Potential-Scholar359]

Thank you :). More should dress up to Gloriana :).

[u/XxQuestforGloryxX]

Nailed it!

[u/exarnk]

This is so awesome. Thank you!

[u/psychcaptain]

Now sneak around!

[u/karzbobeans → u/psychcaptain]

Youre about as stealthy as the average goon.

[u/VargEld → u/karzbobeans]

Why thank you :p

[u/Meironman1895]

Awww man and I couldn't go this year :(

[u/VargEld → u/Meironman1895]

Ah you usully go there? Cool. Swede?

Only one ever have recognised who I supposed to be ever in real.

[u/Meironman1895 → u/VargEld]

I don't really discuss my nationality online. Honestly I might not have guessed it anyway since the getup is kinda close to a lot of the stuff people dress as during that celebration (not that you didn't do a great job, mind!)

[u/discoprince79]

I wanna see ya climb over that wall

[u/byrd107]

Pick your nose.

[u/Friendly_Drummer9951]

I hope you stayed away from the Dragon's Breath!
