I wasn't suggesting a major redesign their tom, just an added ending sequence if you go for the replay idea.
The hole modern games idea is an interesting one. being born in 1982, I did most of my gaming on machines like the amstrad Cpc computer, Amigar and finally the snes, so I got used to games with endings etc rather than the rack up score style games you mention. Personally, I very rarely care about my score in games, and it's not a major reason to play, I just love exploring a huge area and finding everyting there is to be found, ------ even if there is not a particularly special ending or other reason for doing so, just give me a huge maze and let me at it! In fact one of my favourite old Amstrad Cpc games, Rowland on the ropes, was rather similar to Monty, accept that you had a gun and collected bullits instead of swords, there were no instant death pits, the maze was randomly generated and the only difference in levels was the addition of a new enemy type each stage, ----- first level had ghosts, second had ghosts and mummies etc. So it's the exploration aspect of Monty that most interests me, and the thing I'm most looking forward to in the game, and I'd deffinately like to see more 2D audio games in this sort of style, ------ ie 2D mega man, 2D metroid or especially, 2D turrican. As to the question of plot and interaction, well I've always loved game atmosphere quite a lot, even wen there wasn't particularly much plot to go with it. i remember for example playing old atari 2600 games like Berzerk and joust at the age of about 4 or 5, making up litle stories to myself about wat was going on in the game while I was playing. now I've deffinately rambled on enough I think.
