Past, present or future? 30 members have voted

Okay, so in my computing science class we're given a 'free programming project' where we make whatever we want, I have gone for the wannabe Zork rip off game but I'm not sure whether I should make it based in the past, present or future. So if you were forced to play a text-based RPG, what setting would you prefer?

There will be a poll if I figure out how to make one...

 

If you have any ideas on how I can make this game sound less gay, let me know.

I like medieval games. Anyway, how long have you been studying this stuff?Because a text-based RPG might get a bit complicated to code..

Make a calculator instead, you'll fail horribly at the game.

Why do you think that? A calculator is simple and generic, I want to do something challenging and I've already planned this out, so far the only problem I have is creating a save/load system or a password system.

Meh voted "past" thinking the question was something to do with are they old and stupid already.

 

Well they are...but the past is the best way to go anyway, I don't think the futuristic crap usually makes for a good game.
