You still have a tablet of paper with the New World Computing logo on it. (Used to be included in the disk box of the early games.)You have "King's Bounty" in DOS on a 3-1/2" disk.
You remember heated arguments over which were better RPG's: the M&M's, the Gold Box games, the Wizardry series, or the Ultima games. (I loved 'em all.)
The only clues available were either by Scorpia* in the old "Computer Gaming World" mag, or Shay Addams' "Questbusters" sheets. ("PC Gamer" was not yet born.)
*This triggered an inside joke in M&M3: the villain serpent-woman, "Scorpio."
You rejoiced when M&M 3 broke all the molds by having a small FOUR-person party, and the party members had changeable facial expressions (unheard-of before then.) I laughed out loud at the green gagging faces when poisoned, and the look of astonishment and dismay when a party member was wounded.
You deplored having to change out the 5-1/4" disks so frequently: usually one for party stats, another for dungeons, still another for the game itself.
And for you real old-timers (like me) you know what a DIPP switch was, and still occasionally think "Load *, 8, 1."
