@dosnostalgic yep, but I am more amazed about but the other fact. Myst had a novelty factor. Riven is merely a sequel, which often would do worse. (riven was a better game)

@dosnostalgic
Unpopular take: Myst is overrated
Dang, a lot of barbie.

@dosnostalgic now the challenge is to use the covox output and receive that using a mic on the other end, pushing into another laplink (without the machines directly coupled): acoustic-isolated file transfer ... or in other words: acuostic-coupling

@dosnostalgic pretty much offline ;-)

@dosnostalgic can't read Facebook posts, but on Twitter not much better: https://twitter.com/ScummVM/status/1589380503135981569

Freecape is a 3D game engine. It was used on games like Dark Side, Total Eclipse and Castle Master: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freescape

I remember this very well, as I owned the Amiga version of the Domark published 3D Constuction Kit. It came with a VHS tape to explain it. https://www.lemonamiga.com/games/details.php?id=1497

@codewiz yes it is. It replaces the original explorer.exe, and uses a similar unified view. However in recent years MS has adopted or copied a lot of features, so less relevant. But for me, to perform remote connections easily is already a big win (ssh, ftp)

... and not just on Amiga.

@codewiz I thought of the Easter egg.

"We made Amiga, they fucked it up"

Which one reminds you of the 𝑨𝑴𝑰𝑮𝑨 / #Amiga ?
