Well the issue that often comes up is "X game isn't great because it's too large" or "it doesn't have good-enough graphics" or "it's too simple/short" or such comments. We can't judge a game quality based on our personal gaming preference. It needs to be judged in overall. Just because a game is massive doesn't make it bad. Plus, some games are very old and may not use the best techniques, but back in the days they were considered as masterpieces.

True there are some masterpieces that got behind  in TI-BASIC evolution.
But Exodus is a (or the) masterpiece of these days of "Pure" TI-BASIC. It should be the master piece of current state of art if you want to mention it in an eloquent way.

The epicness of this game cannot be expressed except by using a combination of binary numbers that exactly correspond to the bytes used to create this game.

I was worried the above would mean another game that is easy to lose...
