Very little voice acting. You had to read everything to understand. There are even those who learned a second language just to play a game.
Also people who write the massive guides on gamefaqs for free.
Good times.
With the best ASCII art.
I dunno, I think that may go to the demoscene release groups, though I guess it could be argued that a lot of that was ANSI and not ASCII. Gamefaqs stuff was okay though.
I wrote a free guide for GameFaqs while living in Japan learning Japanese, the FAQ is still up there 25 years later.
I feel seen.
Nintendo games have helped my kids with their reading because they still won't put voice acting.
