kerbiloid Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 (edited) This devalues them.- Maybe they should be procedurally generated, but always be the same, like in Elite. Edited June 22, 2021 by kerbiloid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerbol system feels really nice on the other hand partly cause of the difficulty required to get to any of them and also that they're all very unique.

Handcrafted systems gives us room for intricate but semi-realistic systems that hold a lot of charm. Random generation has proved to have no charm, it doesn't always generate realistic things and it is not intricate. Elite, NMS and SpaceEngine don't ever give us planets that have any unique properties unless said properties were handcrafted beforehand, nor do they hold any stories or charm.
