    I read it takes 365 earth days to brew 25 yr whiskey. It takes 1 year, really? How much do you get then, 100 per casket? I bought some for what seemed to be cheap. think 2000-2500 for 10. Figure it would sell for far more. Thanks for any info.

    One in-game year is 14 real days, so 350 real days for 25 year whiskey.

    `When breweing 25 year old whiskey takes 25 game years - why does blacksmithing a chain shirt not take e.g. around 90 days as in real life?

    We don't have any items in the game called '90 day chain shirt' that I know of. Maybe a wishlist item? Sounds like fun...o_O

    Speaking of which, every Avatar is an adult, how about we having to wait 21 years to start playing so they had the time to grow up properly?

    Actually, that could be an interesting start to a game by having a player be a kid for the first year of playing.

    Just wait a moment. First that would be 21 ingame years where a real hour is a full ingame day. Not THAT long. Second - 21 years? That depends on your country and state - we had adults with 21 last in 1975. Since then you are an adult with 18 like, I would guess, the majority of countries.

    Avatars grow in Earth years not in New Britannia years.

    It's either 18 real world years to make your avatar "ripe" or we'll keep playing an incomplete/unrealistic game.

    I have a better idea - a day to create the chainrings. Then a quarter of a hour to connect every chainring with 3 other chainrings for about
    Only if you get Shroud rated for adults. We may need much more female entertainers for that.

    Avatars aren't born, they're already fully-grown when they travel from Earth to New Britannia through a magical portal. They don't seem to grow even in Earth years which may be explained by their otherworldly origins, like the Titans.

    More suspicious is that native NPCs don't age a bit after several decades...

    Why? An in-game year is decided by how fast the planet the game takes place on orbits it's star. Even though an in-game year goes by in an hour for us why would the NPCs age at a rapid rate? If the Earth we lived on suddenly began to orbit the sun once an hour, we wouldn't age differently.

    Please don't derail the thread. I demand full realism in all activities that take time in real life!
