Comment (by Vhati):

 @bluegr:
 Question: Would it be uncomplicated for a GOG player to transition to
 ScummVM?
 Are there unpatching guides? Or instructive error messages to walk them
 through it?
 I'd like to recommend it to someone but don't wanna leave a bad first
 impression.

 > All sorts of GOG patch files related to [QFG] are quite broken, that's
 also why the GOG version doesn't work properly in ScummVM, because we do
 all sorts of security checks. The original interpreter checked almost
 nothing, which means that broken patches may still work somewhat. You can
 remove those script patches though and then it will work in ScummVM.

 > GOG uses Dos-Box for Quest for Glory, which then uses the original
 Sierra SCI interpreter. Because of that they are using all sorts of fan
 patches to get around timer issues and so on, but those cause other
 issues.
