This is a fantastic article. I'm actually working on a 7th Guest/11th Hour retrospective video (probably because I've got Stauf on my brain due to our Kickstarter), and this article is pretty much my go-to reference. I haven't seen a lot of videos touch on the how's and why's of those games — YouTubers seem mostly content with just snarking at the hammy acting and the slow node transitions — and I kinda wanna make a video that explains why that is... while also snarking at the hammy acting and slow node transitions. 😁
