I owe my career to these two people. My fascination with Sierra games got me into reverse engineering the AGI engine and writing my first compiler so I could modify/create similar games. Their strategy of producing an in-house programming language and interpreter that made other aspects of development much easier was a powerful one, and today I'm fortunate enough to have a job building basically the same kind of thing, albeit for a different domain (Fintech). If it wasn't for Sierra I expect my professional life would have gone in a very different direction. Ken and Roberta were true pioneers of the industry in so many ways. They cared deeply about hiring the best talent, giving designers the autonomy to make the best products, and building a loyal fan base across a wide range of genres, which was a tremendously successful formula. The fact that 25 year later, so many of us fans still feel an emotional connection to the company is testament to that. While it's sad the way the company ended, the amount of joy Sierra brought to the world and their long-term impact on the industry and subsequent generations of game developers (and others outside the industry) is immense.

Your AGI studio was instrumental to me becoming a game developer way back as a kid in the mid 2000's. It was so neat to make (and tool around with Sierra's own) AGI games with a free tool like that.
@petermkelly Жыл бұрын
@@jayharris7673 Wow, I'm so happy to hear that! AGI Studio was a project I did for my own interest/enjoyment, but it's always great to see when people find it useful and create their own games with it. I think that society is best when we all work to create things that are both fun to make and bring benefit and enjoyment to other people, and the gaming industry in particular is all about that.

It was great to see my old bosses, though I don't know for sure whether I ever got to ever meet them in person or not. As a former Dynamix dev, I only ever got down to the Oakhurst office once, and that was for a conference they held there with Robert McKee (Roberta might have been there at the time, but I can't remember). I'll always be grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of the extended Sierra Online family thanks to these two.

Sierra has been a "household" name in my head since I played Kings Quest 6 back in 94. Colonization was also one of my favorites, not to be confused with Civilization lol, which was also great, just not as good... to me :P

I remember being excited as a kid to play King's Quest VII, but had to return it as my computer didn't have enough RAM. I had played through most of the King's Quest games up to that point. Sierra was a big part of my childhood, along with Lucasarts.
