NGL I was quite sold on the daytime building the town up, nighttime prevent it from being destroyed,

But then it went into customising clothes, food, houses, etc and it just lost me. I don't care about that. I don't want to micro-manage each aspect of my citizens down to the individual clothes/ingredient/brick etc.

I never understood why Molyneux is so big on the idea of customisation - it seems to get in the way of the games grander vision...

Customisation is hardly the biggest problem with Molyneux; I mean he literally developed a scam game, Legacy with its NFT land scheme.

I hadn't heard about Molyneux in a hot minute, and now I'm quite glad I've lived in a bubble away from that man's crap.
