Drat this home computer. Poor editing abilities (ie I'm not familiar
with it, or I would be set up right). Anyways, interactive fiction might
just be a novel thing to talk about on this IF group. Imagine that. I
rather imagine something in our future along the lines of 7th Guest meets
Doom meets Return to Zork. Video is in, mindless gore is in, and pencil
thin moustache plots are in. But who knows, maybe there's still a writer
or two floating around out there. I mean, 7th Guest was very neat, but
at the same time, very static and unrewarding. I imagine that the
software market has, in the last year, launched itself out of the league
of home-grown companies. There are simply too many expenses involved
now. Actors, artists, programmers, a spell checker, and a license to
remake a movie as a video game. Yep, WAY too expensive. :/
