If you wrote an rpg in text that challenged my computer's ram or storage I'd
be worried, sinse that game would be huuuuuuge! :D.
I agree though, one nice thing about text is the possibilities to go
anywhere and do anything.
I'm not sure how good the glulks format is at having different sounds or
background music play for events, but certainly the mechanics are there.

fiction combined with rpg. and since its mostly all text your limit is
your imagination computer storeage and amount of ram.

Hi Tom.
I disagree about Inform not being good for rpgs, or at least not Inform
as it exists as Glulks. Given what has been done by Victor with
Kerkerkruip, and his previous efforts such as the unfinished idols of
war.
The Inform 7 modules he created are still freely available and some other
people have made games with them, indeed he created those modules
specifically so that rpg mechanics could! be handled in a standard if
language.
yes, while it's true Inform 6 and the standard Zcode format never got the
wherewithall to make rpgs, mostly because as we've said before the if
community don't like rpgs, that doesn't mean glulks isn't an option,
indeed I'd be rather pleased if more rpg games were made in Glulks.
