Old Age Request

[Agrajag]

Ahh, I understand. I (mistakenly) thought that you thought that aging does not cause disease, and must have a high chance of causing it.

So yeah, I agree that old age is very dangerous, I rarely bother playing any nation with aging mages, or if I do then I have some elaborate plan to mass forge/cast items/spells that reduce/halt old age.

Also, I find that the way aging currently works is a bit... Too much... Since old age causes afflictions and disease, and disease causes lots of affliction as well, old people seem to completely fall apart more than the death of "natural causes" you'd expect.
Sure, people died really young in "those times", and often of some affliction, but they weren't generic horror movie zombies that fall to pieces.
And besides, wouldn't you find it far more amusing if instead of death by disease you'd get messages like "Yctimell slipped in the tub and bumped his head. At his age, it proved fatal." (amusing in a morbid sort of way) [or just "Yctimell's heart gave out and he is no more." or "Yctimell's soul has been released from his body, perhaps to be kept by you."]
