I thought I had paused my game but I had not and came back about 36 hours later to find loads of villagers including my chief had died, but no-one was more than 82.
I was in the nature faction.
And like in VV2 and the totems, it seems the graveyard can only hold 50 people. The Roster still lists them but not as an elder just their man job, and why they died.
To say the least I was devastated. GGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
My child apprentice parent had grown up to be an adept parent in that time, but had no other skills, but so many of the villagers only had one skill. And those who had no inherited skills were just lying around bored.
And oh boy was it hard to make them work. They all had work as a dislike.
And the word NO became so monotonous. So I gave up.
And I restarted that game.
I had finished the main game ages ago puzzle wise but was trying to do the 90 year plus task.
And this time I will be double checking my pause game button.
My magic tribe were starting to get into their 80's as well, but now suddenly they are starting to die off earlier and earlier even though I had baby sat them, putting them in the bath, lots of food and water, and potions.
I have only 2 kids, they are 8 and then a parcel of 15 year olds.
The tribe is at maximum size, so it is horrible to have to wait for an elder you like to die so a new baby can be born.
So parenting skills in the women are low.
