Making a text based game in basic.

It is inspired by Tim Cain's youtube channel and the trend towards different character builds to have a different path through a game.

Nice. Could be an interesting challenge to balance builds and branching eventualities. I remember trying a strength/melee-based Fallout character and failing miserably as I was a walking pincushion when trying to close distances between gun-firing enemies... :lol:

Interesting that you can succeed in some Fallout quests using diplomacy instead of just shooting things. I think people have tried 'no violence' completions (not sure if it's entirely possible with some of the games though!).

Yeah some builds have to fail I suppose.
I always went for the guns and haven't tried intelligence or charisma builds yet.
I just heard about them.

Those are 2 that I usually put quite a few points in to - James Bond seems to cope... :lol:
