[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 3693735, member: 22779"] Not really though. All of those elements can be looked at and judged without resorting to my personal preference. And, if you leave off some or all of those elements, the map will likely be less useful than one that does include them. Thus, it is a worse map. I can absolutely hate the map, but, if it has those five elements, it's still a good map. It might not be one that I find appealing, and that's fine. However, without those five elements, the map does not function as well as it could. Thus, it is not as good as one that has those five elements. I find it very strange that anyone can argue that easily definable elements that do not require any real subjective judgements are just subjective. Is the room big enough to fit the monster? Yes/No. What subjective judgment is involved there? Can I read it? Yes/No. Again, not a whole lot of subjectivity there. Blue on white or full color? Ok, that's a totally subjective criteria based entirely on personal preference. But that doesn't make all criteria subjective. [/QUOTE]
