Comment (by tag2015):

 Replying to [ticket:14754 lwcorp]:
 > This game is a remake, so you shouldn't expect other decades old games
 in the series to add special support for it. Unfortunately, ScummVM did
 just that by prefixing its character endgame exports with **qfg2agdi-**
 AFAIK, we haven't done anything specific for this game. In general, files
 generated by the games (for the AGS engine at least) are automatically
 prefixed with the gameid to avoid overwriting other files, since the
 savedir is shared.
 > The solution should be to either:
 > 1) Change the AGS implementation to using the original form **qfg2-**
 > 2) Change both QFG3 and QFG4 to respect the **qfg2agdi-** prefix just
 like the **qfg2-** prefix
