In VV1, there was a ceremony of sorts when someone died. That was missing in VV2. Please bring that back. It seems so cold not to have something.

I have to agree. My husband and I spend two weeks in Williamburg, Va (it was on of the places we spend our honeymoon two years ago.) One of the newest sites is a working Vriginian farm where you see the lives of a farmer, his slaves and the few free slaves they could hire. The games that the children were taught had another purpose than to keep them busy; one day these children would work in the field and the games they palyed were really teaching tools that taught not only survival skills, but how to work together to keep the family not only together, but alive. I believe that the new VV game should have games for the children to learn how work and be an active part of the community. The collecting of butterflies, pebbles, bugs and shells is a good start.
