Yeah, when they talked about procedural generation I was imagining like, photorealistic details or custom textures on the fly, something way more advanced than what was available at the time. I didn't really understand it but it sounded fancy! But all it really meant was like a random map and random species being chosen. It didn't quite live up to the marketing, sadly.
