I am part of an online modding community that revolves around Bethesda's "Construnction Set" for Oblivion. I got bored and began creating my own little land, and adding bits of code where I think it would work well. Now I've added a questline around it and named it "Freedom of Moonshadow", the realm of Azura. Got alot of cool things working, grabable ledges, climbable surfaces, reactioinal AI, light and sound triggers, patches of excessive bloom so that it has that "holy shit thats brilliant!" kind of thing going. Of course I had this all going before the questline, and now that I've added that, more code has been added, certain parts of the world only show up in shades of grey/brown, different weapons and situations, so on and so forth. There is a bit of a problem, mainly due to the size, but not much of one. I clocked it at 45+ hours of gametime not including the extras you can earn. The question I have is: Is it worth it? Do I realy need to unleash my monster into the stream, a flooded stream at that? With the horrible amount of user-generated content, even though I put in a lot of time and effort to make it how I want it, complete with voice actors and new abilities (code-coppied damn near straight out of Mirror's Edge), Friends and I liked it but should it enter the masses?
