TheAncientGoat {l Wrote}:Races aren't /that/ important, having good creatures is better imo
TheAncientGoat {l Wrote}:That's true I guess. Keeping in style is hard. But having beds for models we have is slightly more useful than beds for creatures we don't have
andrewbuck {l Wrote}:Even beds for creatures we don't have is useful too though. Beds help set the personality of the creature and give you some idea what kind of theme the thing will end up being. I think they form a useful part of the concept are surrounding the creature and that is not a bad thing. Even having a bed to look at for inspiration when modeling a creature is better than having nothing at all to go by. Also, we would eventually like to have beds for all of the creatures (at least ones that make sense, not necessarily one for every single creature), if at this stage we discover it would be very difficult to choose a bed that would work for a creature we may decide to use that creature as a summon so it doesn't need one instead of making it a normal creature. These issues and others are helped by this early discussion. Not to mention the fact that we came up with a new creature "the flying skull" via this same process.

TheAncientGoat {l Wrote}:If you design a game sothat it is only playable once you have X amount of models, you place a bottle neck for releases on the art pipeline.
TheAncientGoat {l Wrote}:But anyhow, seeing as me not being round has caused the design to revert to Svenksmand's, I'll keep out of it
Take a look at this design document from the OpenDungeons project, are you telling me that no artist out there could do better?

You could have at least dropped a word before writing that... i know they are awful but you cant just go and put me on shame all over the net, it is still impolite.
