So essentially you are turning into a dumbed down graphics game. One thing we really stress against with upgrades and web interface on NWA.

We (NWA Staff and Game) don't want to compete with WoW or Runescape. They own the market on online RPG's with graphics and sound. It would be like a publisher of books having music and video clips inside the book as you read it. No thanks.

For those muds that want to gear this way, go for it. I commend IRE for attempting to make things clean for people brand new to text only games. We are moving in that direction as well having a type of directional start up for brand new players to text vs. experienced text players.
