Hi Ken.
Magic the gathering is a ccg, not an rpg. That is, it's a collectable card
game, albeit one with a fantasy theme (other ccgs exist for everyting from
pokemon, to wwwe wrestling, to harry potter).
Ccgs work as effectively two or more player battle games. players collect

Hi Jeremy.
I agree the wastes took randomness a bit far, and some sort of scaled
approach might work, but there are examples of games that got it right,

As to rpg's and replayability, I want to take issue with at least two
of your examples Dark.
Fallthru was replayable, but the essential shape of the game stayed

I disagree on costs there.
You can use mostly text for the interface with some sound effects, and use
the mechanics of the game to create replay. Look at the way dos rpgs did it,
