I would think that they would not have to make PERFECT sense. this is a game afterall. but really the rouges and bandits r the "bad guys" of the game. well the one that can think. ulbers have no brains....
so 10-20 of them come in and try to do something be in steal a random thing or just kill stuf really. The guards should be outnumbered so that the citizens have to help. say a message comes up says ur under attack (not in chat bos but in middle of screen) if your in the area if the rouges kill the guards or wateva they are trying to do everyone suffers a penalty be it a deduction of PPS (PPS isnt gonna be in game forever is it? i tink its so unrealistic) or a small amount of money due to the rouges stealing money.
Generally, thinking of PS like another game... well yeah,
if someone rob a shop, everybody loose some of their momey, because robbers rob, so you loose
if the rain is raining in ojaveda, everybody in yliakum are wet, coz rain make you wet, doesn't it?
if you are digging a tunel for mining, whole hydlaa is destroyed coz the tunel was too weak and was crushed.
On a desert water vaporises, so all lakes in Yliakum vaporises too, because it is hot in Yliakum... on the desert.
Yeah, everything is generally true.
