Not true, actually. On rec.arts.int-fiction you'll find lively 
discussions of well-maintained languages like TADS and Inform, in which 
one can write text adventures. (There are Python partisans in that 
group, BTW.) Dozens of new freeware games are released every year, and 
some of them are very good indeed.
