"novelty of the cyber-future interface"I wish I had thought of that wording when I wrote my piece Don't like the eBook version too much to be honest. Too many single-sentence paragraphs (horrible typesetting), and the fragmented style feels much more like the gimmick it is. Though I see that the work associated of pulling the same text out of the game after having done it once could easily be considered a tedious task.

I have an ebook of the transcript of the game. I read it once a decade or so. I think the game was about the novelty of the cyber-future interface. It doesn't stand well against modern expectations of data organization for me, so the game is more tedious than the ideas behind it.
