Nightfall

Oh for the love of the twelve do NOT add store hours to shops or clerks available.

That was the third worst idea in FFXI only behind crafting level limits and fluctuating prices for crafting materials.

Back on topic: Sarutabaruta had Night time enemies and goblins could see further at night so it was more treacherous even in lowby areas. Even Ronfaure had more Orcish mobs at night. It was really fun seeing people run back to town from an aggroing Orcish Grappler or Mesmerizer.

I remember the skeleton on the road in the Black Shroud. That was fun.

Agreed. It doesn't fit well with the more casual mood the game is going for. They want people to be able to log in and do the things they need to, store hours might mean on any given day they may not even be able to get to it during their play time.

And they're on their feet 24/7! Their feet must be nothing but blisters.
