[QUOTE="Bedrockgames, post: 7605541, member: 85555"] But your whole notion of what constitutes color, and what constitutes good color, is completely at odds with my notion. That is the crux of the problem here. And again I just don't buy into this Content/Presentation-performance distinction people are making. It hasn't been demonstrated to be a real distinction and it hasn't been shown by anyone to be useful for anything other than this discussion. And you are prioritizing color and performance to the extent that it seems to be your primary consideration. Also how are color and content not able to be the same thing? Plenty of prepared material contains color. It is one thing to say the game is divided into content and presentation. That is already a muddy distinction. Is boxed text content or color? Is an NPC personality description content or color? [/QUOTE]
