I’m hoping for a Sierra Online renaissance.
I wrote Sierra a letter as a kid and they wrote me back encouraging me to go to school for Computer Science so I could maybe work with them one day.
Did that ever get 11 year old me excited.
And I went to school for computer engineering…and Sierra vanished.
I hope Microsoft brings Sierra back.
