The point of procedural generation is to have designs that are not designed by a designer so they can surprise us in unusual ways.

- teamonkey 10y agoThe point is to create lots of useful content, it doesn't have to be intended or not designed. Procedural generation can be entirely predictable. Also, if it doesn't fit the eyes of the designer (who could also be the programmer) then the algorithm or parameters will be changed until they do. In that way, most procedurally-generated content is designed.
