Sierra - Don't have too much fun!

I could never get into the Sierra games much, as they were exercises in punishing the player. Though we did get some funny videos out of it:

I agree 100% with that. I think that's why I prefer the Lucas adventures to the Sierra adventures. The Lucas adventures encouraged experimentation for the most part, while the Sierra games punished the player. I will say that Sierra did have fun with some of the death circumstances and animations and I wonder if they weren't inspired just a bit by Dragon's Lair...

That video death montage is awesome. That would be perfect for our documentary, since we talk about that very thing!
