After listening, I want to see a new developer/hardware company called 7Gig, with the pledge that all games will never exceed the size limits of physical media. Digital media took the brakes off of file sizes, so they crammed it with 4K sparkles for no reason, and any random idea in a game was now good, because it doesn't matter how much space it takes up for something pointless, just make the game bigger. 7 gigabytes was roughly the size of an Xbox 360 disc, hence the name. Free idea for anyone in a position to make it happen.

Findom isn't really my thing, but I play Magic the Gathering so make sense of that.
Playstation? X-Box? All my games are on a drive in my computer. Steam. I back them up to another drive so no one can ever delete them.
I have faith in piracy and emulation to cover the gap. but yeah, probably shifting almost entirely to steam and/or god in the next year or so.
I remember playing Envirobear. Wik says it was released in 2009 but it feels as if I had played it back in the '80s. It feels like everything I did was back in the '80s. I miss the '80s.
