/vr/ - Retro Games

Thanks for the recommendations, guys. I already knew a couple of 'em, but I've just played Maniac Mansion so far, so I'll try to remember to play the other ones.

Hah, so that's wherer that's quote's from. I thought it was from a computer magazine or something, but turns out it's a Sierra ad. Makes sense they'd toot their own horn and in such a corny way too.

Don't worry anon, I was planning on playing at least the first one. In fact, I recently got it in a GOG sale. Looking forward to it.

I guess you're right, the thing I enjoy about these "games" is basically exploring the phantasy worlds they create and childishly dabbling in the overall sillyness. Call it a childlike wonder or something. Besides, unlike modern David Cage-y stuff I adore how most of these games look, specially the animations and the backgrounds. The death scenes are the best part. I'd say they alone made KQ4 worth it, frustrating as they can be.

So yeah, I see how some of these developers, specially Sierra, were full of shit but I don't really care, and I can bypass their bullshit logic with walktroughs, so these games don't take too much of my time anyway. I'm still having a lot of fun discovering this genre.
