Getting Paid to Terraform?

[mayortiffany]

I can see why such a service would be appealing to people. Some people might have a vision, but don't necessarily know how to translate that into the game through terraforming. Other people might not have the time or interest in the designing process, but want the final product. Just because it's not for you doesn't mean that it might not be for someone else!

My biggest problem with buying island designing off Nookazon is that the listings don't contain any 'portfolio' information about the seller, like an example of what their prior work or what's included when you purchase island design from them. I think that such a service would be best sold on places where you can share multiple image files like Tumblr, Reddit, Discord, or even here!

If I were ever to purchase terraforming, I'd want a blueprint of what to do, instructions on how to get particularly tricky areas done, and the ability to message the user for help if I get stuck. And I wouldn't buy unless I could see an example of their past work.

I personally would never get someone to terraform my island, it would definitely be something I’d want to do myself, regardless of how bad it may turn out lol

I’d also be a little worried that they’d ruin a part of my island or just... disappear half-way through, leaving me with a mess to clean up ;0

And I feel that working off of screenshots (whether shots of some islands you found on google or the test results of your hired terraformer) would be difficult as I’d assume it would be hard to replicate someone perfectly

but that’s just my 2 cents!

I suppose it would be an interesting way to go. I personally would rather terraform myself because... I have a more solid idea in my head rather than just any old screenshot that I could send to someone. I think it’d turn out to be something I would enjoy a whole lot more.

I would rather look up videos of island tours for inspiration and build on the ideas and concepts myself. I can even just ask for advice on this community. There are also online tools available to help you create a blueprint of your island.

Also, whether I am a creative person or not, I would rather experience building the island with my own hardwork because it feels much more satisfying in the long run.
