I haven\'t updated this blog in while. That\'s about to change. Since World Adventures was released, I\'ve been splitting my game time between The Sims 3 and Dragon Age. But, now that I\'ve (finally) completed Dragon Age, I\'ve been focusing on The Sims 3 and the new Create A World tool.
\r\nIt took a little while for me to warm up to CAW, because it\'s not exactly the speediest tool in the world. It doesn\'t take long to learn how to use it, but it does take a while to overcome the quirks and its shortcomings. It also takes a very long time to design a worthwhile world to play in.
\r\nAfter several attempts on large worlds that I never got to a point where I could play-test, I decided to create a simple, small and flat world that I could use to design lots, play-test game concepts, and to see how CAW designs actually work in the game itself. This has worked out well.
\r\nI may share that world soon, but I\'m soon going to return to design a full-fledge game world worthy of my pride in artistic design. Since the Exchange has been flooded with **** ugly worlds, I\'d rather not give people the idea that I\'m not capable of a quality world. What can I say? I\'m a perfectionist!
