This thing's really coming together.

It always amuses me when perv games often have deeper systems than many AAA games. I should play something like Rance one day.

It isn't a perv game, it's just hitman with schoolgirls.

Your caveat is likely true for some people.

He doesn't know. It's one of those dudes who starts adding random Codex people. I always try to find out who they are, other people don't care

One wonders, why is it that you must monitor Steam accounts of our membership? What obscure knowledge do you gleam from them, what deeper mysteries spread their ebony thighs for you when your knowledge of Kabbalah and Higher Calculus is applied to those average Skyrim playtimes?
Not all knowledge is meant for you, child of Zion.

He's just checking gameplay history and updating his txt.

I guess that Infinitron is good enough reason to set your profile to private.

Still feeling more emotion than with the prequels.

Love the Cliff Racer sounds on the TIE Fighters.

But where does the rocky grinding sound patched over them moving their turrets come from?

I think it's the sound when opening certain area-transition doors (Daedra or Dwemer ruins)

WTF 3 grand for 5 mb? The equivalent storage in floppies probbaly cost no more than 100 dorra at the time.

Gotta keep the normies away somehow.

5,25" floppy disks did hold 100KB of data at the time, this was before high density and 3,5 drives. A Box of 10 did cost 40-70$ at radio shack & the drives where anywhere from 300-1000$.

 

[Sodafish]

Still a hell of a lot cheaper, even at the high end of those costs. Still, I guess you were paying for the novelty of the hardware more than anything. I mean the 10 mb one is only 500 more after all.

You wait until you try to play a game that uses 8 floppy disks and you get to disk 6 which is corrupted and see you feel about cheaper floppies at that point.

 

[Unkillable Cat]

You have to try to place yourself in 1981 to see it all in perspective.

In 1981 8" floppies were still a thing, but quickly being phased out by the 5.25" floppy. The former had storage capacity from 90 Kb up to 1.2 Mb, but that amount of data on one disk was deemed "unncessesary". The 5.25" floppies, on the other hand, started with 320 Kb (which sometimes was distributed on each side of the floppy) and went as high as 1.2 Mb as well, though that wasn't really a thing until the late 1980s. (Games and software needing 6 floppies was also not really a thing until the late 1980s, and most of the time they were on so many floppies for the sake of backwards compatibility. Remember, more than 95% of PC games made in 1989 could be booted up on the original IBM PC released in 1981.)

This, of course, assumes that all floppies were equal across all platforms. Wrong. Each computer platform not only had a different format layout for their floppies, but also a different OS to read them, meaning that sometimes you couldn't tell for sure what computer a floppy was being used on. So in, say a company with 100 employees that relied upon computers, it could be a full-time job just keeping track of all those floppies...and more importantly, replacing them, as they were flimsy as fuck and very prone to data loss.

Meanwhile hard drives had been a thing for 25 years, with the first 5 Mb hard drive ever made being the size of a closet and about half the weight of Poland. Yet people immediately saw the benefits of having hard drives, but the problem was getting them small enough to fit into a personal computer. That drive shown in the ad is one of the first models for personal computers and a monster even by 1990s standards, but it worked and it replaced a literal army of floppies, probably twice its total storage capacity.

I'd be willing to bet that despite the initial cost, a hard drive would have paid itself off in the long run at the very least.

Oh I remember that well. Also tape loaders that would get to 4:30 of a 5 min load and crash... those were the days.
