If you control everything you can hardly fail can you? I like my fighter, no title shot for you Burley.

Look, would you want to be the in charge of a baseball team and just decide who makes the playoffs with a click? Where exactly in the challenge in that?


Right now, people handicap themselves and use this outstanding sim to just run fights and make a universe in what's known in most game as sandbox mode. That means unstructured, no competition for the player. Do what you want. I don't think it's unreasonable to want an actual game framework.

Now I wouldn't suggest ditching sandbox mode, it's flexible as hell and some people love it. I'm just surprised computer gamers would EVER lobby for a game with only sandbox mode.

I never would have purchased Railroad Tycoon or Civilization with only sandbox mode.
