There is a certain pleasure in looking back at those not so great games. Not to mock them, but rather as a reminder of the realities back then. Retrospectives focus on the big hits of their days. But we also spent our time with stuff like #DasMagazin. I'd be really curious to know the story of its development. Were there people behind who really stood behind their work? Maybe, one day, we should try to research all this.
