So a purely psychic realm closely mimicking the material ones ? Fascinating ^ ^

The reference to Selforge City wasn't a criticism in any way, just an interesting analogy of our respective settings based on their similarities and differences. Does the ability to shift one's appearence at will remove the value of said appearence ? Now, that is a question worth pondering, considering it is the standard in my own ^ ^;

From an individual perspective, it stands to reason that the ability to choose how you look would likely make for a happier existence than just rolling with randomness, if real-life is any indication. On the other hand, this flexibility also makes gorgeousness the normality and limits diversity to variants, taking away its "comparative valuation" and thus lowering its "stock value".

So I guess it ultimately depends on were you stand about it. Kinda like a casino : randomness is good for those who win, bad for those who lose, and great all year long for the casino owner XD

Personally, I ended up "choosing" both : happy choice for Selforge City (VIP "center of the world") and interesting randomness for the Inner Planes (game-like artificial worlds).
