Fair enough. Still, the concept of a 3d or at least isometrically projected "normal sprites" game of DF or the like would be cool. And I know Armok one would always be lame in comparison to DF, but if expanded, cleaned, and taken in a slightly different direction it could still be ok. I mean, it looks about like Early Runescape did. And look at how far they've come. Mind you, I realize that Jagex has like hundreds of dev workers. Actually, as I see it, the way to revive Armok 1 into something playable ( besides getting legible font and a consistent and professional looking GUI ) would be to simplify it. It looks too feature over-loaded to be practical. Plus, as I'm sure I'll come to find out even more later, there are obviously design flaws. That doesn't mean the scrapping of an idea entirely, just perhaps mostly. As for whether or not it's worth it, that's all in the eye of the lunatic dev. Many people would say Dwarf Fortress "isn't worth it". I disagree. The problem is, I have the desire but not the skill or consistent willpower. Still it is highly possible, I'd even say probable, to salvage a worthwhile game from Armok 1. It'll just be different and lesser than it's original intention, but considering the scope of the thing, that's ok.
