Dungeons and Dragons, the very first role-playing game, was also the first game to be programmed on a computer. At those times, a computer was not a small box connected to a monitor or a TV. It was a room full of huge steel cabinets. These computers could only display text; they had nothing like billion color displays or surround sound of today's PCs. Yet, role-playing games were still available in text-only mode.
Just imagine gameplay where a computer would print something like "You are in a dark room." You would type "Light lantern with match", and the computer would reply with "This room appears to be a library. There's a table with a crystal ball in the center. You also see bookshelves, ladder, and a door leading east."
Was it fun to play? Sure, at the time, it was!
Luckily, modern role-playing games are very far from those of the early days of computers. Today's computer fits in the palm of your hand, and today's role-playing game displays pictures and animations, and produces realistic sounds to make the process even more fun!
