one can only assume that a Character is in such high demand because it
can be quite a time consuming part of game dev. getting the Characters
right and again a game could have up to 100 diff models i.e.: Npc's and
monsters enemy's so on and so on... I mean a user could spend a good 6mnths working on them and there fore give "the Game Creators" time to work on
"the Blob" engine again this would buy them probably 12mnths while
people are making levels and indoor areas and after that there is always
the item creator again another 3 - 6 months while people make items for there
games.
one can only assume that within that time frame of aprox 2yrs that they
would have incorporated vehicles, advanced Ai, multiplayer / coop so on and so on.
