  in 95 there were a lot of crappy ascii art games bcz there wasn’t anything better technologically

  i mean i still have my old 3.5 and 5.25 floppy collection of sierra games published in DOS, pre-windows (since you obviously weren’t around then), that doesn’t use any ascii art. you’re the one throwing out wild anachronisms to make a point you don’t have.

  developed on windows 95 when only ascii art was available

  Nowhere did I ever imply that ascii art was the only thing available

  Graphical video games predate ASCII.
