Well I misread, he was saying advent of online multiplayer games. Not advent of video games... That said, bards tale predates aol offering internet service. But many versions of it were re-released for newer systems and such. So magazines were pretty much all you had. And they tended not to spoil games back then. They usually also advertised the tip books and such.
I had online (dial-up) service via QuantumLink when Bards Tale was initially released for C64.
