Tell me you're a gamer without telling me you're a gamer

JUST DON'T IT

man, Day of the Tentacle

"order corn"

Early computer games were entirely text-based. You would give a one or two-word command, like "open drawer" and the game would respond with sentences or paragraphs of information about the result of your command, usually new visual information.

Devron gave a great example of a response to twelfthdr's command. He capitalized the nouns the way some games would capitalize the interactable objects.

In the game Zork, you needed a lit lantern to nagivate dark places. Even if you knew where you were, and the path back to a lit room, the game would comment "it is pitch black, you are likely to be eaten by a grue" every time you left one room for another. Make a wrong move, and the game would announce your death, "You have been eaten by a grue."

Zork can be played free online, and the entire Zork anthology is on Steam.

Portal. One of the best puzzle platformers of all time.

It was Tanya's voice for me. I still play Command and Conquer: Red Alert from time to time.

Yes, and cats too, it's useful tip for going to caves to ♪Mine at Night♪

I think I got a milder version of it - tendonitis? - when I was working on finishing my master's thesis and learning (lots of writing involved) to my final exam. It got to the point that I could not write for more than a few seconds without burning pain, and had to wear gloves (in the summer) to prop my wrist up a bit from the table, being it laying down was painful :D

Proof than higher education is more harmful than videya

Carpal tunnel syndrome is an affliction usually affecting individuals over thirty years old. However, some children have also displayed some of its symptoms. The injuries include bursitis, tendonitis, and related injuries that are becoming more common to young kids. Nintendo thumb or Nintendonitis is the name called by most parents to the constant usage of video games causing strain injuries which is repetitively occurring. This also characterizes carpal tunnel syndrome. Video systems used for homes are not the only contributor, but also video systems that are portable which include handheld game systems.

:D :D That would be very kind of you

Don't worry mate, I couldn't decide between this and "War never changes" but I didn't want to use the phrase exactly like it was used in the game and with the conflict in the Ukraine I used the BG reference even though Fallout is my favorite game ever. BTW, I like your cats :-)

And you know what ? what really, really drives me mad, is orange juice.
Ofc I'm joking, I'm usually some kind of a human teddy bear in real life :-)

I think it's both a well-known and well-ignored fact when it comes to gaming, it's linked to Duke pretty hard.

More devilishly good music:
BFG Division (Rip & Tear is the "meme song", but imo this is the real deal)
The Only Thing They Fear Is You

DOOM / Eternal fan-stuff that I love (Miracle of Sound):
Hell to Pay
Big Guts And Bigger Guns
