    Spoony I just wanted to say that your Ultima retrospective stands out as one of the greatest pieces of internet media ever produced and actually stands the tests of time as a true documentary to one of gamings oldest and most important franchises. Mixed with your obvious personal connection to the series, that story of playing with your brother always gets me, it really is a masterful work.
    I hope to see you produce more reviews and videos again but if you don't ever that series along leaves behind a legacy worth remembering and it is the reason I got into software development and game design.

    I know I'm not the first to say this but watching Spoony play these games with Curtis Craig all these years later is so surreal.

    I can't help but feel it would make more sense to play something Spoony didn't riff on already, there's plenty of funny FMV games to try, but I'm still glad to see him active again, and playing games alongside "Curtis". Crazy how things turn out. And if there's any chance this might reach Spoony - I'd love to see you vlog about movies again.

    The hacker in the wheelchair is a very very clear reference to Neuromancer, talking about “melting ice” and “selling smoke”. I’d bet my hat he was referred to as a “console cowboy” in an earlier draft of this game.

      ten seconds later Quinlan calls him a “deck jock”- that character is 90% Dixie Flatline, 10% Julius Deane. Someone writing this game was a Gibson fan for sure

    The letter from Fungiplays was very sweet!
    And a great video overall, as usual. Kudos to Daniel for fixing the issues with the game quickly. I remember back in the day when the first puzzle of a game was usually getting that game to run.

    1:26:12 'grepping' might be a clever attempt at future slang. Grep is a linux/unix command used for pattern searching in text strings.

    Tex Murphy Under a Killing Moon would be an awesome fmv game to go through with Spoony. If you can get it to run, back in the day it was a nightmare. Or maybe Black Dahlia, that one had Dennis Hopper!

    What's the reference of "Palestinians in New Dallas"? Just a little bit of ambient Cyberpunk orientalism?

  • @Trillykins
    @Trillykins 10 місяців тому +1

    47:43 I'm not a fan of this puzzle because, like they talked about in the previous episode with the monkey wrench, it is a puzzle that requires specific cultural background. Here, the clue is 'no eye aid' which is then translates to 20/20 (don't need glasses), but that is only a vision standard that is used in North America. Playing through this back in the day as someone in Europe I'd have zero chance of figuring this out.
    EDIT: Okay, I should've waited to comment because Daniel says the exact same thing lol sorry

      We're playing using the original CD's which were ripped as images.

    Little known fact, but Benjamin Franklin co-created the Metric System and the Founding Fathers wanted to switch to it, but the cost to replace tooling was too much for the US to switch at the time. So whenever someone says Metric "isn't American" you can shine light on their ignorance.
