I still prefer seasons. If a random event, or another deity's act, happens early in a turn, better to have something like two months go by before we can work on correcting it than eleven. Especially important when we're talking about things happening to our children.

Murrin wrote:Although that first point is not strictly true because there are ways around it, I once again mention my lack of preference for the subjective turn time. Seasonally does seem slightly more realistic, but on the other hand, more stuff happens per turn than could in 3 months as well. 6 months seems a reasonable compromise.Stonemaybe wrote:At the very least, the current turn rate makes all the 'important birth' events completely pointless, because the game will never reach a point where these characters will be significant.
How would people feel about Summer/Winter turns, then? Six months instead of a year?

It may avail us not but it sure is fun to speculate.Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. There is no fear in love; for perfect love cast out fear.
