Line 9:
* [[Abdicate the Throne]] - We find out that Rakeesh has done this before the events of the second game, leaving his brother Rajah in his place.
* [[As You Know]] - Used word-for-word by Aziza in the intro. Which is especially silly since she's telling the hero about all the things he did in the second game as if he didn't experience them himself. Furthermore, this intro does a [[Retcon]] of the QFG2 ending.
* [[Bigger Bad]] - The [[Big Bad]] you face off against in the end is just [[The Dragon]] trying to unleash his [[Sealed Evil in
* [[Big Creepy
* [[Character Focus]] - The Fighter class gets the most focus in this game, thanks to the Simbani Rite of Manhood. Wizards get to make a magic staff, while Thieves get it worst since there's no Guild and only two houses to rob ({{spoiler|the Simbani Laibon's and the Leopardman Chief's}}), both of which are plot-required. Paladins, naturally, get the Fighter's quests plus very tiny extra bits here and there.
* [[Demonic Possession]] - The demons can do this to any host, as it seems.
Line 16:
* [[Evil Gloating]] - If you're a Paladin, you get a [["The Reason You Suck" Speech|demoralizing speech]] at the very end. None of the other classes get the same consideration.
* [[Extreme Doormat]] - Kalb the meat merchant; he'll accept '''any''' price you offer for his wares, no matter what your Communication skill is, and will never complain. There's no reason not to take advantage of his spinelessness; it doesn't even count against you on the [[Karma Meter]].
* [[Everything's Better
* [[Fission Mailed]] - Light a fire, then walk away from it. Only YOU can prevent savanna fires!
* [[Frazetta Man]] - The inhabitants of the Lost City.
* [[Game Breaking Bug]] - Several. Not as bad as the next game, but still annoying at times.
* [[Hoist
* [[Late Arrival Spoiler]]: The [[As You Know]] at the beginning of this game tells you how to complete the previous game.
* [[Lost World]] - The lost city beyond the waterfall. It's inhabited by apemen and {{spoiler|demons}}.
Line 27:
* [[Mix-and-Match Critters]] - [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?|Winged Cobra]]s!
* [[No Guy Wants an Amazon]] - Women in Uhura's tribe have to choose between being a warrior and being a mother. Good thing she decided to [[Take a Third Option]]. Specifically, leaving the tribe, finding a decent man outside, and coming back with the baby, but still being unmarried, so no one can claim her as a wife in her tribe.
* [[Oddly
* [[Point of No Return]] - The main one is the {{spoiler|failed peace conference,}} after which you can no longer visit Tarna, the Simbani Village or the Leopardman Village.
* [[Pop Culture Pun Episode Title]] - After the initial release, Sierra was informed that another video game developer had already trademarked the title ''Wages of War''. A re-release was developed with the new subtitle ''Seekers of the Lost City'' (a nod to ''[[
* [[Revenge Before Reason]] - Rakeesh says that going to war over revenge is irrational and will only end in lots of death. He's right, as the people they are fighting turn out to be {{spoiler|demons}}.
* [[Retcon]] - Rakeesh was said to have killed the Demon that wounded his leg in Quest For Glory II, here it's stated that the [[The Dragon|Demon Sorcerer]] was the one that wounded him.
