osm: and water is wet
Stig79: Cutting story content\dialogue that was already there = abridging the story.
osm: And if it's not the "story content" that's got cut? Rather mostly a couple of circumstantial scenes. Does it still somehow abridges the story?
Stig79: Having the EGA version available as an OPTION for the ones who want to play it, does no harm, does it?
osm: no one's said otherwise
The game is 1) overrated anyway 2) Objectively short/lightweight whether it's EGA or VGA or whatever 3) surprisingly disappointing on the sound/music front for a game supposedly centered around these production values 4) Want a more quality experience roughly in the same vein? Consider playing The Dig.
So since you consider the game overrated, short, and lacking in music quality (despite the game being made in 1990), everyone else should play The Dig instead....Gottcha.
