Hi Dark,
I really think the RPG thing is strictly a preference. IF in really wasn't
originally geared towards RPG at all. And INfocom did have some games (take,
for example, Wishbringer).

Best Regards,
Hayden

Agreed sarah, that was what put me off them.

I actually believe these days that the entire if genre has been badly 
affected by infocom, sinse the people who took over the inform language and 
writing if in general were infocom fans who strongly dislike things like rpg

mechanics and limited parza, and now are wondering why so few new fans start

playing if?

Beware the grue!

Dark.
