His work in physics was kind of a big deal, and any game that involves faster-than-light travel should take into account the causal paradoxes that would result from such technological possibilities; I should also be able to train skills faster than other people by constantly warping from one system to another (or rather, faster from the perspective of someone who is stationary).
Anyways, I just wanted to throw that out there. This really is a big issue to me; it would be like if Call of Duty had no gravity because "welp, too hard to model" and everyone just sort of floated around. You can't ignore the fundamental nature of reality and expect to present your game as internally consistent...
Use that then, according to the theory time slows as you approach the speed of light. So from an outside observer your ability to learn would also come to a crawl right? |

That's not quite as insane as it sounds; One of the theories of how the universe has expanded so far, in the time that we think its been around could indicate that the speed of light was actually faster in the early stages of the universe. Science, capsuleers! True, watched a special on Discovery Channel with that famous Asian physicist guy (sorry forgot his name) and he said that the big bang would've started as an infintesimally small point and expanded to the size of our solar system in a matter of millionths of a second...... that is way faster than the speed of light.... so eithor he is right or Einstein was right or they are both in a way right and that the speed of light itself can be changed.... Something to fry your noodles with.....

Did a search for Macro observation of a quantum event and came up with this little gem.
