Alright. My issue personally was where one person in a community likes other things beyond that space and when combining the two, others in one community or the other get real nasty with that one person and ends up being ridiculed. Maybe I'm speaking from my experience in a few personal circles I frequented at a younger age, but it's happened so many times, it becomes predictable for me. But because of how you expressed your disinterest, I can respect that because you never expressed out of ridicule or cynicism . Most I've seen would needlessly attack and act irrationally or insufferable. that's why I expressed how we should be open to people from other fandoms and be more civil.
I'll be legitimately surprised if someone is able to pull off the Digital Circus world in a limited engine. but I feel at the moment it's too early for this concept to go anywhere. It will take some passion and dedication for the thing this kid wants to come to reality but either the kid needs to be patient or get into modding themselves if they want that end goal to come to them.
