I definitely think it is harder to use decor, since you have no excuse to use bland colors that have no shading, because you can, but i guess as long as people arent saying its cheating or not good, or takes no effort or skill. If people dont say that its good. But saying it ruined creativity is totally backwards.

Yes, but it is the same creativity it is just a different way of using it. It is using different colors to make art and it takes skill to make the best art. Not all that different

Well for me I'm more of a art guy that will do little electronics, im not great at electronics

Dude, This deco layer thing... I agree. it helps with tons of cool stuff and awesome things.But yes, It is being wasted on rubbish guns with rubbish mechanisms, with essentially the same mech. A wifi trigger connected with a wifi reciever with a blob of NSCN and METL and PSCN with a bit of PCLN and then some more NSCN...

you get the point.
The fact is... What happened to awesome stuff? what happened to limited ammunition? WHAT HAPPENED TO IMAGINATION? Sure, deco is good. sure, it makes things look real. I'm just saying; MAKE GOOD STUFF!
OK, pixelart is good. But when it comes to guns... use pixelart AND give it ammunition. Just saying...
