What's the first game that comes to your mind when seeing this?
Half-life 1
>>736078261https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXkMKToetok
King's Quest. Not like any of you zoomzoom would know about this great series.
No idea how I ended up with this as a kid but I played it a lot.
>>736078261Empire earth
>>736078261Leisure suit larry
>>736078285This, half life is the only sierra game i know.
>>736078261Homeworld.
>>736078285>>736078534Genuine gaming tourists. I want you homos out of my hobby.Half Life 2 is also a worse game than HL1 and it wasn't published by Sierra, and I don't think it's a coincidence.
Evil Genius
>>736078261FEAR
>>736078605I had to use glasses as a kid because i wouldnt stop playing vidya but ok whatever you say.
This thing had a fantastic level editor.
>>736078773Terribly sorry breh and half kidding as I just have animosity towards HL2/Valve which can sometimes flow into HL1 (a game I've come back to loving)
none honestly. but the orchestral logo splash followed by the heavily compressed "sierra!" instantly pops into my head. i've played a ton of their games i just don't know what they are.

>>736079787Huh, apparently it's not even related to Sierra. I really remember Sierra published Delta Force. My bad.

>>736078261im a huge Half-Life nerd but for me its the SWAT series, especially Police Quest and SWAT 3.
>>736081050Is that the current Spiderman actor?
>>736078261Lode Runner
>>736081086kinda looks like it but i dont think so, game is pretty old
>>736078261Best Larry.
>>736078261Quest For Glory IV
>>736078261The Hobbit was first then I thought of Metal Arms which apparently was published by them.
Power Chess
>>736078261AvP2
>>736078614This is that game for me. You know, THAT game. Nobody talks about it, it didn't make a big impact on the industry, but I played it at the perfect time. I was 11 years old, I loved James Bond so the 60s spy aesthetic spoke to me, the comic book style was sleek, I was young enough that the slapstick humour was still funny, old enough that I could actually figure out how to use the systems. And my God, the music. The sequel really doesn't hold a candle to it.

>>736078261>After seventeen years as an independent company, Sierra was acquired by CUC International in February 1996 to become part of CUC Softwarelmao get CUCed
>>736078261Very obscure choice, but for me it's The Bourne Conspiracy. Enjoyed the hell out of that game.
>>736090337While the game takes a lot of the great soundtrack from The Bourne Identity, they had the same composer do extra tracks for the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XML94jBMx2w&list=PLWBHYkElrfZEKXOXoECbard1KPQsZnFzz

>>736078605>Half Life 2 is also a worse game than HL1 and it wasn't published by SierraSierra by the time HL2 happened was a shell of its former self, a holding company that just sold LAN Slots in Korea and whose entire income was overseas at that point. When Roberta and Ken Willaims left Sierra, that was the end of that company as anything resembling Sierra

Rise and Rule of Ancient Empires
the first Empire Earth game was the best of the series.Also, the amount of shit they put in the box package was ridiculous.a hugeass thick booklet and a whole bunch of posters/data sheets.
>>736094963Yeah, it was pretty great.But I'd raise you Alpha Centauri and Homeworld.

>DeveloperCountless amounts of kino. Too many to name. Space Quest, Leisure Suit Larry, Quest for Glory, Laura Bow, King's Quest, and of course Police Quest that later would evolve into SWAT.>PublisherHalf-Life and Arcanum.
>>736078261King's Quest obviously.
>>736078261>Leisure Suit Larry 5: Passionate Patti Does A Little Undercover WorkThe weakest in the series IMO but the first Larry game I played. I was very young and had no clue what pic related was about lol
>>736081446Metal Arms got to be the most underrated video game in the world.It was so so so fucking fun. One of the best gun plays ever, segmented enemy damage, control over different robots with different gameplay, insanely fun mutliplayer...Then Blizzard faggots bought the studio and the devs got absorbed into obscurity

>>736079272By doing it all. The buisness end, the technology end, and the writing and soul end. They called themselves "on line" back in the 1970's when even a modem was a rarity. Ken Williams was a programmer at IBM when that fucking meant something. And a large number of the heros of that early era worked with or for them. Having a CEO who could play and program video games meant they wern't publishing or working with garbage. So even shit like Ultima went through them.And as anon says, when they left is when everything changed.>>736081747A revival of Dungeon Keeper in a way. Which was THAT game for a bunch of other people. That game was still stylish as fuck. >>736080293People who were too young to know the OG shit.
>>736090735>>736090240Also, they were corporate fuckheads, and the executives couldn't code, play games or write like the Robersts did.>>736091570Right. Just a few bits left after that, like Homeworld.
>>736104684Sort of. It was Vivendi publishing, Sierra distributing. Ubisoft took over after. I think they bought one of the other or bothr.

>>736078261Quest for Glory Shadows of Darkness>>736078331You be surprised GoG has help a lot of us play old games easily. I think it's on of the reasons the AAA market is dying on itself. They got to use to the old world of having to buy what was on the shelf and nothing else. Now you can just go back and play games that happen before you were born and enjoy them all the same.
