I know what you are doing + all your arguments have errors in it, one time you talk about realism another time you mention it to be fairplay in the same TOPIC, so realism=not balance
It just shows up there is something major wrong with this.

Rocky, there is no one single factor that determines if a sim is good or not (although some certainly deserve greater weight than others). Both the game designers and the modders have to take multiple factors into account, and reach a decsion based on maximizing all of them whenever possible, and striking an appropriately weighted balance between those factors when they are in conflict.
"The long and short of that" (to borrow LW's favorite phrase of late) is that there is nothing erroneous about discussing both realism and fairplay/balance in the same discussion. They both matter. |
