13292: [MUD-Dev] Fun and Learning in games

Ok, I've been thinking about what makes games fun for me. Specificly, Real
Time Strategy games, but this applies everywhere I think. Anyway, the
conclusion I came up with is that actually learning to play the game is what
presents the greatest fun for me. I was wondering if perhaps this is true in
other people?

If so, then perhaps one design element that hasn't been addressed in many
games is an unending learning curve, so there is always something new about
the game dynamics to learn.

Thoughts on this greatly appreciated.
