Art: Table and chairs concept

[Nyuudles]

@Clexarews

I’m not buying that adding furniture variants is on a one-to-one scale with developing new races, creatures, wearables, or any of the various systems that have yet to be worked on. However, to be fair, this was just the meaning that I inferred from reading @jesshyland’s post and she probably didn’t mean it to be read that way.

The factors that came before the end product of the concept art that we see now must be what jesshy was talking about. A lot of planning, rough concepts, and group discussions must have been done before they were allowed to show just a speck of their progress.

Didn’t you also say that a creature creator like spore would be too complicated to make?

@Clexarews

Something as thorough as Spore’s creature generator would be difficult indeed to make and, as I pointed out, would take a considerable amount of time. But the idea of something like Spore’s creature generator is worth exploring, or at least mentioning, I believe.

Which comes down to what james said in the past:

@james

It’s pretty hard to build a generator that can create content that is close enough to hand created content from a visual fidelity. So ultimately it’s a trade off between: variety, quality, developer time.

Not sure if this is still true today.

(Sorry I kind of went on a tangent there, I just started recalling a lot of stuff on this forum as I was trying to speculate what the devs might be going through. ><)
