RPGWatch Side Quest: Where is the "R" in CRPG?

I agree with your points, i.e., not being able to ask where the blacksmith is to anywhere. The answer to the crazy rebeliion would be scripts I guess, but again, thats something that would be a key part of the game if any good amount of resources where going to go into scripting/presenting it. But again, your right, until computers can do what the holodeck in star trek can do, crpgs will always have rp limitations.
