When did I indicate that 3e ran itself in some way. It most certainly did not.I also never said either game wasn't designed with balance in mind... The opposite actually.I'm a bit confused on this one...Right... but that's not what I'm talking about. Balance for me in a game system is akin to when I got my new LCD tv. The manufacturer has several "optimal" settings for things like brightness, color balance, contrast, etc.Awesome. Under an optimal viewing experience this is what would look the "best."Despite how hard I try though, my living room is not the optimal viewing setting. I have un color balanced lights in weird places,  I can't adjust how much light they output, I have things like windows, my position on the couch is not the perfect spot, etc... Plus my own personal tastes ( I tend to like the brightness slightly higher then others might.)So I adjust from there. The manufacturer's optimal settings are a starting point.Same with a game for me. I look at the game and it tells me under "perfect" conditions this is a balanced game. I adjust as needed for optimal fun.</blockquote>
