Considered cutting edge game in development right now, studio size: 10 people.

[link=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Man's_Sky]No Man's Sky[/link]

It's procedurally generated. Automatically shit.

Minecraft is procedurally generated, and it's the most successful PC game OF ALL TIME.

And Avatar is the most successful film of all time. But is the the best?

Avatar also had one of the biggest budgets of all time. Is it the best?

Films and Video games work differently. Increasing the complexity of a video game requires more money. You need bigger and more detailed environments. You need better AI, etc. You don't need to up the complexity to make a good film.

Then why did you bring Film up?
