I found this out with Minecraft and WorldEdit. I spent more time tinkering than building without any resource constraints in creative mode and with a tool to make huge changes.
Survival mode, even with monster spawns turned off, forces a constraint, and all the cool stuff I've built happened there. I can't just lop off the top of a mountain and lay out a perfect rectangle or square building. It has to grow and evolve from the blocks I collect on the available landscapes.
