Adventure Text For Required Thinking

I loved the article JB. It is so true. In most Role-playing Game's all the work is done for you. No imagination necessary to "See" the world. It's the same comparison as between reading a novel and watching the movie version of the novel. The novel requires you to visualize what you are reading about unlike the movie. I almost always enjoy the book over the movie *smile*

ROK2 definitely requires attention to be paid to the smallest detail. That amount of detail isn't present in a non text based Role-playing Game.

That thinking aspect of ROKII is one of the things that make me really like this game and also to find it one of the hardest games I've ever played (Which is not a bad thing at all, on the contrary, I love it).

The imagination aspect is also so important to me. It's easy to get tired of games where everything is mostly "Pre-decided" for you.
