You might assuming correctly, especially if you're also assuming that I'm about to tell you that the product MS-DOS was based on was also, in fact, not free.
Sun Jul 02 00:25:46 +0000 2023Replying to @GaRudan_S
The first part is correct. Bill Gates bought 86-DOS (QDOS) from SCP and Tim Patterson. That product, however, was neither free nor open source. Here's the first print ad for it, and as you can see it was $95:

It's not just games. I never worked in games, but I was in a similar situation where I was the manager, and yet got overriden on most decisions in the worst way possible. Because the pay was good I ended up working for that company for 3 years until I couldn't take it anymore.

I saw it in theaters two weeks ago, and thankfully it's out on VOD today, so I'll be giving it another watch very soon. Quarantine time resulted in quite a few unusually personal projects from many known directors, and this is clearly one of them.

Hey, maybe it's actually higher bitrate, but I personally don't see much difference visually, and my streaming speed seems to be about the same as it used to be when this option is selected. 🤷♂️ Someone more curious than me should actually measure their traffic & report on it.

Thu Jul 20 23:58:17 +0000 2023How much of the appeal of the early 90s point & click adventure games was that was pretty much the only genre that often had very non-videogame-like writing, and was openly allowed to be funny?
Fri Jul 21 01:38:44 +0000 2023Replying to @ben_304
Yeah, you couldn't do much writing when you've had a 64k memory limit. When those restrictions (at least for text) were removed RPGs went all out on just piling on text. Adventures usually stayed quite lean, unless it was something like Callahan's where it's a length of a book.
Fri Jul 21 02:07:37 +0000 2023Replying to @ben_304
Yes, I think it's one of the larger factors. And explains Callahan's case as well because in it narration isn't voiced either.
