Sierra Online co-founders Ken and Roberta Williams have announced their first new game in more than 20 years. Colossal Cave 3D Adventure will be a 3D version of the original Colossal Cave Adventure, a text-based game from 1976 that inspired an entirely new genre of fantasy and adventure titles. Like the original, the new game will task players with exploring an elaborate cave system in search of treasure. Along the way, players will encounter all sorts of characters including a giant snake, a dragon, trolls and perhaps even a bear or two. The difference this time around is that the adventure will play out in an immersive 3D world. The idea for the game came about as a result of boredom while in quarantine during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Doesn't anyone have a creative thought in their head anymore? Everyone is doing things for the money. Nothing new is coming out, its all bloody remakes, reboots, "3d" versions. Where has originality and new games gone? This is what happens when you make dope legal. Everyone is now too stupid to think of anything original and just make more money for more dope. We've become a world of morons.

Everything is ‘what job do you want to do?’ Either work from home/ YouTube vlogger. That’s about it.
Some PC games I ache to be remade but won’t. Because it’s all about sitting on your arse and moving with the least amount of effort for the most money.
Consoles get the same games remade on the next platform. year on year ‘ray tracing’, ‘4K’ just unoriginal stuff. The pc gets tacked on to that list as an afterthought. But that’s what the games industry has turned back into ‘visuals’. No originality, just back full circle like the jump from DOS/3DFX to full 3D. The loot boxes seem to keep mum and dad occupied these days, still? So that still works.
As I said some games would be amazing remade for modern controllers and graphic cards. But wouldn't sell to keep people sitting on their arse working from home. Which is what this is really about.

As for Sierra.
These guys are legends and have done it all. Nothing to prove.
Hell I was playing Earth Siege 2 and SWAT before Xmas and I have loads of Gabriel Knight from GoG. Plus phantasmagoria, kings quest and my last fav Shivers!
