mannn companies were still puting ou physical media, and those guys launched the second game online only, and Not via any third party bulshit, i still dont understand how that didnt became norm and we got co-opted in steam assimilation

I've been reading the original replay of Record of Lodoss War and the video reflects on other parts of the Comptic issues they serialized in like bestseller lists.
Strategy games like Nobunaga's Ambition, Daiva, Three Kingdoms and Daisenryaku were big back then.

Oh by the way, I have the volumes 94',95', and 97' of MikroBitti on pdf format. If anyone's interested I can upload them to somewhere or something. They're all in finnish so they're probably not the best toilet reading material, unless you like to look at pretty pictures and sprites.

Does anyone have any magazines on pdf? Or maybe links to some sites that have them? They're the far superior choice over grainy scans. Vectorized art, vectorized text, high quality pictures, oh yeah.

They say print media is dying, but then again they said the same thing about radio when TV became a thing. Surely you can nowadays all the reviews and previews and screenshots straight from the internet, but magazines have still lot to offer and I'm sure they're going to be around forever. And with augmented reality and smartphones cameras, magazines are going to be full of new life.
There was this joke I heard in the 90s that is still relevant
>Do you think TV news is ever going to replace the newspaper?
>-Nah, you can't swap flies with a TV!

>>2845758
Like all the media formats that "die", they don't really just disappear forever. It just stops being a primary format.

The issue with gaming magazines is that as a source of news and reviews, they can't really compete with websites that update every day and they never really figured out how to compensate.

>>2845858
I think PC Gamer magazine has free steam key codes on their magazines every now and then, so if they had some subscriber gifts like free DLC steam keys, GOG keys, posters etc.
Sure they could send the keys via email or something, but if they sent the keys in some printed sheet between the magazine they could at least make sure the keys went to right address.

>>2838657
Ugh. That quotation.

Yes. It's got merit because it's realistic.

>>2845758
Took me a second to see you meant "swat flies" and not "swap files."

>>2845758
Print media is essentially on life support now, considering it's been replaced by the internet and magazines these days tend to be filled with more ads than anything
