[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 7559692, member: 23751"] If it's game design, it's at best secondary or tertiary to everything else that is going on. I don't give a fig about the design when I'm modifying things to make them more realistic. I care that it's more realistic. Yes. Yes it can, and it's a fact that it is. You don't get to tell me what my goals are. Realism is not an all or nothing thing. That's a False Dichotomy. I can have realism in some parts of my game, and have elves and Tarrasques in other parts. This is false. It's because I want more realism. Nothing more. Nothing less. So first, I'm not trying to make it as much like the world as possible. I like a lower level of realism than that. Second, whatever else I get is secondary to the fact, and it is a fact, that I want more realism in parts of the game. There isn't. The goal is more realism. Anything else that comes as a result of adding that additional realism is secondary. I know why I do things. I know what my goal is. There's no chance of it being anything else. [/QUOTE]
