    Uh, this might actually be true? The VGA Sierra games had 256 color graphics, so "8 bit". I don't know whether their code used 32 bit pointers and integers. Quite possibly not if they worked on 286s.

    I believe all or nearly all of the classic sierra adventures were 16 bit games, they never made anything for 8 bit computers, and stopped making adventures around the time the 286 became obsolete. Despite this their games saw great changes in graphics, both technical (from low-rez 16 color to medium-rez 256 color) and artistic (from pixel art to scanned paintings and 3D renders) There's no way you can simply label that as "16 bit style" and have it mean something.

    "16-bit sytle game" is the new "old-school game".

    Well, I'm not a programmer, of course, so I rely on various (maybe dubious) sources, but, for example:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_(computer_architecture)#Table_of_word_sizes

    And anyway, 8-16-32 bit usually is a console classification, which original poster confuses with both CGA-EGA-VGA graphics and PC CPU's word size.

    The 286 was already too slow to run their last batch of adventure games. Actually, GK1 and PQ4 were slow even on 386. If they kept using 16 bit code it must have been a matter of convention/engine limitations.

    Found a protest site "Rock, Paper, Misogyny" and post these links there. This thread has turned into a generator of its own material.

    Mathemagic. It says "free," it must therefore be more cost effective.

    I love how "Great Value" is least cost effective option :lol: . But hey what do you expect from "1EUR=1USD" people? Scratch that, what do you expect from "f2p monetization in boxed full price title" people?

    Keep in mind that 16 bit applications run just fine on 32 bit CPUs. People were making 16bit programs as late as Windows 98.

    Kids are sexting by the time they're twelve. There are children modeling sexy lingere for kids. Every woman who can afford it gets a breast implant and caps on her teeth to create the illusion of perfection. Girls are competing to wear the sheerest, tightest pants they can possibly find, so that when they bend over you can see their happy little smile from behind. The goal of every woman is to look as absolutely beautiful as she can (even a disgusting whale wants to be a beautiful disgusting whale). Nobody is choosing to look like absolute shit.

    And then these completely self-absorbed, unaware white knights get angry because a girl in a video game doesn't depict women properly? Why aren't they angry that men aren't shown as real men? I'm offended that a man has unrealistic bulging muscles. That isn't fair to me, so it has to be changed. Why are characters almost always shown as successful heroes? That isn't fair in a reality where most people aren't. Heroes need to be changed into failures.

    At best, all this outrage will only amount to a couple more movie-games scoring easy points by using a more conservative dress code and a few more 'You don't care that I'm gay... do you Shepard?'-esque equality speeches.
