I think the ultimate game (this shows my MUD background) would be a game
where video and sound (multimedia) plays an integral part: All action
would take place in a viewer window, where you would see combat, players,
player interaction (makes for some interesting feeling commands, eh?),
etc.  This would require an incredible amount of work on the part of
the wizards, who would then have to become artists as well.  The
input into the game would still be natural-language/text, since that
is the best way of input, and most flexible.  The output, however,
would be vastly different.
