My impression of the Fyleet Crobe thread

[Adam Cadre <adamc@duke.edu>]

Modern IF players: "I don't get it.  Aren't these just collections of 
brutally difficult puzzles without the reward of lovely prose or an 
interesting storyline for solving them?  Is it just the authors trying to 
be difficult for difficulty's own sake?"

Original developers: "Pfah.  You think *these* versions are difficult?  
You were *supposed* to play them after covering yourself with the dozens 
of live scorpions that came in the box."
