"The Surprising Feminist Overtures of a Leisure Suit Larry Retrospective"
Speaking of Leisure Suit Larry, I happened upon this Medium article just now, and it's pretty great.
Honestly, because of playing through WDDD and reading the above, I think I kind of want to put all my other gaming to the side for a time and just replay all the Larry games over the next week or two or however long. (Well, except for Magna Cum Laude and Box Office Bust. I can safely give those a pass. Well... actually... I don't know... I might even give MCL another playthrough, who knows. But I definitely won't touch Box Office Bust with a ten foot pole.)
(EDIT) Meh... for some reason, I thought I had already (re)bought all the old Larry games on Steam and/or GOG years ago, but apparently I only (re)bought the King's Quest, Space Quest, Police Quest, and Quest for Glory collections on Steam. Not sure why I didn't buy the Larry collection at the same time, but in order to play them now, I'd either have to buy them again now or else go on an archaeological expedition to find the shipping box from WA containing my original CD copies of the Larry games collection (and LSL7, which wasn't part of the collection), and since I'm probably not going to do either of those right now, I guess that whole idea is out. (/EDIT)
