It would make a lot more sense, if badly crafted items actually look the part. Food looking burnt, a painting smudged, a sculpture damaged, etc.
I attach a screenshot of a “bad quality” painting and I cannot see anything bad about it. I know beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, but come on. The bunny ain’t bad.
Edit: here a direct comparison of paintings:
This definitely needs to be improved. Painting is one area that frustrates me because even level 1 bad quality paintings look like masterpieces. They should look like doodles. Maybe we could have artisticly gifted trait that would make them look good right away, but for most people it should look like doodles in the beginning.
I agree with this! Same for sculptures and other items. Bad ones should look different, poorly made instead of looking exactly the same.
Yepp, that’s why I added also cooking, sculpturing etc. Basically every self-crafted item should be distinguishable. That would make a higher skill level a lot more worth it!
Exactly. Otherwise one doesn’t really feel the skill progression in the crafted/painted item. It’s just worth less
Comments in support. It’s really very strange. I also want to point out that it should work not only with paintings, but also with other objects too.
Thanks. I mentioned it in the original post, but it might have gone unnoticed. Of course every crafted item should have that, absolutely agree. My only immediate example I could show was painting.
Absolutely. Frankly speaking, all handcrafted items should look different depending on a zoi’s skill level.
Yepp, mentioned that in my post too
I agree too.
Absolutely agree!
The beginner level would look good if it were drawn like a child draws, since Zoi is just learning, here’s an example
But then, as the skill increases, it would be nice to see progress in the paintings too, so that from level 3, for example, they would already look like more complete sketches and paintings
Similarly, from level 8 and above, Zoi could paint masterpieces of the highest quality
