If there's a day/night cycle, does that mean there's a calendar? With the actual passing of days?
And if the days pass by on a calendar, does that mean there should be seasons?
--I'm not trying to be difficult with this question, so please calm down, lol. I'm just asking.
Even if there aren't seasons, though, do the months pass?
And if the months pass, does the game recognize when it's a new year?
And does entering a new year affect the setting? As in, canon dictates important stuff in the Forgotten Realms setting. It really seems to matter what year you're talking about when it comes to the setting. Such and such happened ten years before such and such, which happened a hundred years before... etc.
But putting aside the canon year of the events in this game... if there's a calendar, will it be weird if it takes, say, a year of in-game time to track down the abducted duke? Do things like that start to break apart when there's an operating calendar, ticking off the days?
--again, I'm just asking questions, not trying to rain on your day/night cycle parade. These are just things that cross my mind when I think about the subject.
