Re: Developing from scratch

Also, while it may not take long to get those basic features out, that still doesn't determine the success of the game. If we're talking about just getting the basics done and enough for a few players to log on, that could be done in a few months or even a few weeks.

I'm definitel not trying to discourage anyone in coding from scratch. I still think it's the best way to go if you're looking to do something new and different or even if you just feel like you need to do it. I just think that things can be very different in practice than in theory.
