My first experiences with IF. How did you feel?

Peter Pears, it’s not a matter of looking like a book, it’s a matter of having words alone making your imagination flow like no other medium. Being passively submitted to imagery is not the same experience at all… and if I truly wanted that, I’d probably look into SCUMM rather than TADS…

Quite true. But graphics and sound can enhance the experience, depending on how they’re used. A simple description can be more evocative to me than an image, but who says the image has to illustrate what I’m supposed to be seing? Like Alabaster did.

Anyway, it was just a bit of a rant. I’m glad we have the tools to make our games the way we want them, and that’s pretty much the bottom line.
