Why is it always night time in Heavens Tear? I'll start playing and it will go from night to day within like an hour, then it's day time in game for maybe 3 hours or so, then night time for like 10 hours... I'm confused. Why is it like this?

    Time runs twice as fast in the game (IIRC, maybe it's 3 times). This allows more of the playerbase to experience more of the different times of day.

    Just like in real life, it's not 12 hours light, 12 hours dark. But if you have an older video card, older video drivers (update to the latest, especially if you have an nvidia card, for better graphics in PWI!), or your settings are turned way down, it may look more like 6 hours light, 18 hours dark (or at the double speed I recall days in game going at, 3 hours light and 9 hours dark). This is because with lower video settings, the "dawn/dusk/twilight" seem to all become "night".

    And, really, the various times of day in PWI can be quite stunning. I love the colors of the sunsets! b:kiss

    (For even more purty, turn on "Sun/Moon" in your graphics settings!)
