I'm the same as you, I have more fun making stuff. It's always more enjoyable to create content to me than playing an actual game itself, with Quake 3 being the exception. With Quake 3, I enjoy both equally.

I enjoy both equally. I spend more time in Radiant that I do in game though. I have dozens of unfinished maps that im not happy with, and never find the motivation to finish.

I think to me its cool that i worked alot on constructions in real Life. So i have some ideas about how "some" things really work.
But Radiant is way cooler, you dont have to carry tons of material up to the 3rd Floor! :D :D
I think many of those "architects" have cool designs and layouts, but they even dont know how much pain it is to realize some of their work in real life... :( Thats why its annoying to work for those People, they just have cool ideas and you have to figure out how to do the stuff they want... They get 3000/each Month, and me stupid get maybee 800-900 each month.
Real life somtimes really sucks!
EAT THE RICH!

I always get jealous of other games and their cool engines that can handle massive open worlds, and the insane resources that they have to make said massive worlds. So I take all their stuff and try to put it in Quake.

I also like making stuff though; it's fun to play on something and enjoy it, but also know that I made it.
