One thing the new system MUST have..

We must have the ability to CHANGE OUR MINDS.

With the level cap, and thus the imagination point cap, there's only so many points we are going to have.

If we spend them, and then discover that the result we have is not the one we wanted, if we can't reset, we've got nothing else to do about it.

If I buy lots of land, make lots of expansions, and then discover that there's something I wanted that I now can't build due to being full... I will be upset.

If I add another room to the house, let me take it down.

We can learn, we can unlearn, make sure we can unbuild and unimmagine.

  • you are assuming the level cap is going to stay

  • I am glad this point has been raised. It's an important issue. Hopefully a dev will respond...

  • I think they've got you covered. From the Q&A with Stoot:

    Q: I have my lovely new house all built up and shiny. 6 months later i'm bored with how it looks. Can I sell/refund/take apart items then "Re Build" it again but choosing other options?
    A: Yes and no: you won't be able to sell it (you are the only possible owner) and I don't know think we'll have a single "reset" button which lets you start over from scratch, BUT you can change any part at any time (we imagine it being more of an evolutionary process for most players) and it is likely that transitioning to other layouts (e.g., from the meadow style of house and yard side-by-side to the cave style of yard-above-house) will cause more dramatic "reset-like" changes.

  • I agree with this.  Also I've asked if there will be limits in place - how many total trees or plots or levels we can have on our house, IF we can even have levels - but nobody responded.  >_<

  • Miso, Stoot answered that question on the first page of the Q&A thread, directly after he answered your own:

    Q: Will there be any sort of 'ceiling' on the new housing - will there be maximums on how much land you can have, patches you can make, plots you can add, levels you can build? A: There will probably be some eventual limit. But, it will get geometrically more expensive to imagine more land so any hard limit will more theoretical than not.

  • For those who missed it, Scarlett Bearsdale posted a very helpful summary of most of the Stoot answers in the original Q&A post here:

  • iCount, in case you havent got the point, there isnt a limit on the imagination you can earn and spend (except the too hard basket of getting ANOTHER 1,000,000,000 just to get another single patch) from all that Stoot has revealed you can perpetually do things and earn more imagination, BUT the cost for doing things (again and again) goes up each time.... kinda like earning emblems now- it goes up each time.

    anywho, have fun with it regardless
