Does the future of weather play into your design of something like Lorville today? Have you thought about what the city is going to look like under rain or a sandstorm or something like that?

I just want it to rain in Area18. That's my biggest dream, because if you think about deep metropolis, neon lights, rain, sunset, I'd be happy that day.

I remember last year when we put everything a little bit wet and we had that.

But specifically talking about weather, it's a much larger conversation, and it's not like, hey, just put a rain entity, or make it rain, press the make-it-rain button. It's a much larger conversation, because if I'm approaching Hurston and I see a weather volume and I fly down into there, the weather effects need to be contextual to that location. So it's something that we are looking into, but it's not a small undertaking. But when we do it, we'll do it right.
