<div style='font: 14pt Plakatbau; text-align: left; '>It was at best standard sci-fi fare. You can't reasonably elevate it just because of the metaphysical nature of the story - nothing was done, the potential wasted.

And don't bring up that 'story' advantage games have in rebuttal, either. I'd gladly take the transpirings of 'The Godfather' over most RPGs I've played.</div>
