I used the stock Windows 10 for a small website server until it bricked itself during a forced update power outage combo. Including a machine with Windows 10 and an i7 processor when that monstrosity of an OS first came out. I do own almost every Atari, Nintendo, etc. If I did, my money wouldn't have been spent on digital copies of video games. Like really, who goes out and buys Snes emulator with Donkey Kong country?ītw I have no concern with saving money here. I just cannot sit and watch as technology preservationists are replaced by a bunch of people who think it's acceptable to sell games with an emulator. Sorry for the rant for those of you taking the time to read. We already lost so much due to people throwing everything away and consuming new stuff every year. It's no longer about the games at this point. Just like using Windows 10 is shameful and disrespectful to all tbe people who actually develop and preserve technology. The fact that GOG is repackaging old games to only run on an emulator without providing a drm free copy or at least an original iso is shameful. Nonetheless, even if nobody is using 95, plenty of people know how to maintain an XP machine properly in 2021. This requires MsDos 7.1 and some drivers. Seamlessly.īest of all, I am able to easily produce live booting Windows 95 USB flash drives. It has 32 bit color, sound, and ever runs Age of Empires 2! Yes, you can easily run aoe2 onnn 95. 95 is the only version of Windows that runs on it. Windows 95 is my preferred version as it waa the least restrictive while still offering standard Windows api.įurthermore, my rig is an Ebox with a Vortex86 processor. It's a suicide mission to be an independent Windows game developer anymore. How do you expect developers to produce games this way? The old games we know and love from the past did not come from these restrictive conditions. They expect developers to support only new versions of Windows when Microsoft abandoned backwards compatibility and implements forced obsolescence. Gamers have become lazy, selfish, and clueless. Why should anyone be expected to use or develop an operating system that is as intrusive and restrictive as government subsidized Windows 10. Our industry is dying thanks to blind support for Microsoft.
