It'd be pretty funny if they tried that though. "Hey, I know we sold you a castle so um... here, enjoy it in this pixel voxel thing!"
I suppose it can't be much worse than only being able to view your spaceship at best in your hangar like in Star Citizen or something.
You could still get a castle, it would just be voxel graphics which can look pretty cool as well.
I'm not sure the backers are looking for another Trove. Graphics matter much in gaming, I know blocks aren't for me.
I agree with you 100% on this, but, lets be real, if they put out a Voxel game, as a "pre-game" so players could build, and design, their cities, castles and what have you, players would play the hell out of that, for a while at least.
If I were basing my opinion just on the overall feel I was getting from backers, CoE would likely have at least a core base who would be fine with Voxel, so long as it allowed CoE to implement all/most of the underlying game systems they describe.
if they used Voxel as a foundation (which I think they will.. similar to how CU will have a destructible world) it would give players time to customize their landscapes, laying rivers, tress, mountains, caves, then on down to city and private building layouts, and all the little "World building" details, which, lets be real.. players could spend months just planning that kind of stuff out.
I do not believe that any of what you proposed is planned... Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think there are any plans to let players plot out rivers, mountains etc...
As a matter of fact I would think that stuff falls into the whole land grab where folks claim their plots based on how much store currency they have. Maybe one of the landowners can clarify.
Well iirc, CoE claims to have Terraforming, so.. I don't see why this would not be a thing, in one manner or another. Even if not part of the Voxel release, it would happen in game anyway as players modify the landscape.
I think you recall incorrectly...

Quite possible, or I could even be thinking of one of the many other games I am following.
Egotism is the anesthetic that dullens the pain of stupidity, this is why when I try to beat my head against the stupidity of other people, I only hurt myself.
