in text, will that be easier?

If you use RIS 2.0 software, then moving to NQC doesn't really do much for you, unless you like programming...
The main limiting factor on the programming of the RCX is the firmware on it. To really be able to get the full power of the RCX, you need to replace that firmware with something else, for instance BrickOS or Lejos.
With either of those, you get all the control stuctures of their respective languages. Also, you get the full memory to work with, not just a "slot". So, your programs can be the full 32k.
