While I like Jimmy Maher's writing, I would say that he's rather biased in the way he describes those games and it's a matter of opinion.

And there are a lot of great games from Sierra: Conquest of the longbow, the ecoquest serie (aimed at a younger public), Quest of Glory, Leisure Suit Larry (but then I played that as a teenager) and yes I'd say King's Quest 6 & 4.

I wouldn't call him "biased". He has a strong opinion, but it's not based on nothing nor is it a product of some sort of ulterior motive. He has a strong opinion about these games that I agree with.

I had a C64 growing up so I didn't really play any of the Sierra games til I had a PC in college, and I remember feeling really confused about why people liked them so much. They felt unplayable and frustrating to me.
