  • Primary objective: fun.

    I'd share my work for free. At best, I'd add a little "If you had fun, consider sponsoring me. If you can't, share it with others and keep having fun and causing mayhem."

    I'd laugh my head off if someone told me they used a Fire Wave in a narrow alley to take down a group of mobs and in the process burned a hole in the city wall or torched half the town.

    Yes, it was created with classes/professions in mind and each class has a unique skill tree and some even have subclasses or class specific skills.

    As an example: a magic user would need to choose which college it would start with - healing, fire, water, etc - and as the character evolves it can access higher tiers with more complex spells and skills. I had an idea to also cross skills to unlock others, as in having a given skill in the college of water and by acquiring a skill under the college of life, it would unlock a mixed nature spell/skill.

    There was a lot of thought thrown into it. I wanted some very complex under the hood yet easy to play and approach by any person and get gratification by getting into the game, in the moment.

  • I'm in Portugal. I've seen direct insults exchanged between representatives, a clear violation of manners and language, and the representative was not removed from the chamber. Their word was removed, a sanction issued, but that was it. We have representatives with active criminal charges in place that were not removed.

  • This sort of thing always strikes me as odd.

    There are agreed rules on language, some parliaments have dress code but besides penalties or fines a representative can be served with under no situation a representative can be barred from exercisizing their dutifully elected functions.

    I have representatives in my national assembly with criminal charges that none the less exercise as they have been elected.

    This is plainly stupid and abusive.

  • The overall skill trees I was working on were huge and skills were tiered, linked to class/profession.

    An easy example: a magic using character.

    Magic requires mana and spells burn specific amounts of it to be cast. A player could invest their experience several ways: spend their experience to increase their mana pool, spend experience to improve the grasp of a spell (better understood spells would be easier to use, quicker, last longer, etc), acquire new spells within a college or access another magic college (a magical healer could access offensive magic, like fire/lightning based spells, as a quick example, or defensive, like barriers).

    It was fun to think about it, then.

  • Bars, clubs and other night time entertainment venues need to be highly sound proofed where I live. Even if the venue is built on a somewhat isolated area, it's still required for the building to be insulated to some degree.

    I had a restaurant that had a longer hours permit next to my house and because they didn't had stronger insulation, they couldn't exceed a certain decibel level after 22h00.

    And even then, every so often, a patrol car would swing by to check if everything was calm, to keep the more rowdy patrons level headed.
