People who make IF games: what do you love/hate about the engine you use?
It looks like you are describing the Instead Engine and some additional modules to it.

How would you all improve IF (discussion)?
I think it will be clearer from the documentation.

Making an SCP text based adventure - Any suggestions?
For example INSTEAD Engine - docs, game examples.

I am making and Undertale text-based adventure game
Huh, this is a task for an advanced programmer. But. You can take a ready-to-use engine for text games if your task is to make the game, and not to learn a programming language. For example: Instead Engine - docs, game example (download, play online)

Trying to make a class system for a text based game, is this a good way to do it or is there a better way (I'm a noob with classes)
I think you should look into a text-based game engine that already has all the classes you need to implement. For example Instead Engine. The documentation for this engine gives a good idea of the required framework. In addition, the minimal console implementation of this engine contains only 100 lines of code.

There's ChoiceScript by Choice Of Games. It's more along the lines of Choose Your Own Adventure. If you're hoping to make something with a fair amount of random events, you might want to check out Twine.

You use something like https://twinery.org/ for creating the dialogues, and then write abstract code to handle that.
