    Because of my poor English, I thought this post was about life at LucasArts after the sale. I was disappointed. I never had time to play LucasArts games: Leisure Suit Larry, Passionate Patti in Pursuit of the Pulsating Pectorals and similar games took up all my time.

      I've got good enough English as a native speaker and I thought the same thing, don't worry. That said, still an interesting article about a game I managed to never hear of before, despite being immersed in exactly those sorts of games at the time.

      Leisure Suit Larry was Sierra, not LucasArts.

        I think they meant they were NOT playing LucasArts games because they were playing other games.

      It's not your English proficiency. I didn't know this game existed, so before clicking, I expected it was about LucasArt's legacy on the games industry, or what former people there are doing now.
