Do you like MS-DOS games? Are you somehow able to tolerate female Australian accents?

If you miss the old days of the web and aren't doing it already, go use a RSS feed reader and start following various blogs and personal sites. It's not a 1:1 return to that era but it's still a lot of fun.

I kinda miss the days when there were non-pornographic sex-centric games. For example, the old Leisure Suit Larrys.

It seems like these days if there's any sexuality in a game, it's either full-on porn or flat cheesecake.

I guess that's probably due to our puritanical market.

@Craigp they still make leisure suit Larrys!

Trying to make more of an effort to improve my Spanish and would love any recommendations for adventure games/interactive fiction that are in Spanish and never got an English translation. Other indie game recommendations are welcome too!

@Craigp in the US it’s only 15% but in the UK it’s at least 70%

I you like games and don't want them killed, this is a good thing to take a look at: https://www.stopkillinggames.com/

MichaelKlamerus,
@MichaelKlamerus@dosgame.club avatar

@Tijn I guess my issue with this is that he didn’t seem to talk to any game developers or games preservation people to see what would be practical or actually helpful before making a whole site about it. The site makes it sound like having an offline version is as simple as flicking a switch and doesn’t account for cases like the game ending because the developer went under, which is often the case

Does anyone know if Classical Cats has been preserved and uploaded to the web? I can't even find eBay listings for it but ScummVM supports the game
