Another reminder that this place has become a cesspit of vile horrors and that there are better places now. Decisions of the knob who owns this now have cost us what was a great resource, place to meet new friends, and somewhere we could hold corporations to account. Join me:

A pal runs a radio and streaming channels, and after 4 year hiatus my terrible accented alter-ego "Scarlett o'Interfacé" returns tonight from 8pm (UK) to broadcast from her crashed spacecraft out on some terrible planetoid somewhere. (No, not this one) linktr.ee/whatkatedoes

Replying to @PyramidHead76
@PyramidHead76 Here you go. Running with and without moderate ambient light. It's pretty good. This was a reasonable throw ratio for size/brightness. Colour is good, contrast decent. In-built speakers are OK if you were travelling or going to use e.g. in garden.

Quite bizarre watching the footage on the PC/monitor - the brightness is actually blowing out on the phone camera - it's not as bright as it appears in the video in RL, but it was still decent.

But I'm spoilt a bit by the ubiquitous "light cannon" that is the Epson, shown here in comparison running in eco mode.

Welp, time to go I think. Maybe see you at one of the other places.

I talked about "The Dig: in my #20games list, emphasising a love of the sound design expanding the atmosphere beyond the low resolution pixels of the screen.  The music could be a bit aimless, but was still lush  The SFX tho, I could listen to all day with headphones.

Similarly to the Curse of Monkey Island, this was an early PC game for me that was already on re-release by the time I got to it - it ran in DOS as I recall - but was just as stunning, if a little less accessible.

Once again an amazing soundtrack completely wooed me, but the background sound-design paints such a vivid picture in just sound. I mentioned Another World being the last game to inspire imagination for me. I was wrong.

Loved the first three games, but this one resonated particularly with me as I had just transitioned from the Amiga 1200 to my first PC, and was blown away by the art, and the music of Michael Land finally freed of hardware limitations of the games. Sound effects also incredible.
