Perhaps so, but if that is the case, then it's a mistake, IMHO, since the opportunity to "fill in the blanks" is one of the areas where tabletop RPGs still beat-out console games and MMOs. Rather than trying to be "an MMO with an extremely slow processor" (as a friend put it), tabletop RPGs should play to their strengths, encouraging (even demanding) some player engagement and imagination rather than spoon-feeding.
