I recently updated my Steam profile to add Sushi as my profile photo, and it makes me think how bad I wish I could add more Zak McKracken or Maniac Mansion accesories to my Steam profile

Current background is Darkside Detective ❤️

@sayomgwtf ZakMcKracken and Maniac Mansion was the most intense game I played in my early days and probably ever. I love them, both. Sushi kills :)
@grobmeier They are fantastic games! I loved that point and click era, that transition from text parser to what we have now ❤️
@sayomgwtf I remember that text adventures too. When I was young I always wanted to play the games we have now, but today, I try to make the C64 emulator work :)
@grobmeier Those were the days, spending an hour trying to figure out which one was the correct verb whether "turn on" or "use" or "switch" or whatever I'm sure I'm forgetting right now :p
@sayomgwtf Imagine that for a non-native English-speaking kid. I have learned my most critical English terms using a dictionary and those games.
@grobmeier I was a bilingual kid too! Now I'm just a bilingual dork who is constantly confused, verbs or no verbs IRL haha
@sayomgwtf I wasn't really bi-lingual, I just wanted to make those games work :) Anyway, now you can do all that art, and that's a great language too!
@sayomgwtf Darkside Detective rules. Currently playing through the sequel now. Perfect Steam Deck games

@RealFlotus Darkside Detective is so gooood

I have been thinking about the Steam Deck recently - is it good?

@sayomgwtf if you play less demanding single player games then it is 100% worth it. I haven't been this happy with a gaming purchase since I bought a 360 controller to play emulators in highschool. Get the cheapest model and a quality SD card (I got the Samsung EVO plus), look up a guide to move your shader cache to the SD card which takes 3 minutes, then you're good to go.

I barely touch my PC, PS5, or Switch now

@sayomgwtf
The Steam Deck seems to be the purest dream of every retro gamer. I'm saving money for it right now. Looking forward to it incredibly. It's supposed to be wonderful for adventure games, too.

@sayomgwtf What about adding them to your fediverse “profile”? I think that would be neat.
