  He secretly developed a hatred for Milletians and started failing repairs on purpose.

  Btw guys. Re-read the side story again. Seems that Nexon went back and changed the aging dialogue to say age slower rather than not age.
  
  So it was a typo the entire time!

  Back with the original devcat team, there was that snarky kind of game logic, that included the fact that mabi is a game, into the game's logic. Hence why the original story is a bit, 4th wall breaking.

  Isn't it something like ... The client is our way of getting into Erinn? (Which is why you are 'Connecting to the World') It also explains why our login screen is the soulstream.
  
  I always figured that Tuatha time perception is very similar to our perception of Earth's time. To that end, I think that the Korean release of Mabinogi (2004 was it?) was roughly when all Milletians (Shakespeare included) first came here. With Shakey naturally being .. pre-CB?
  
  As such, Shakespeare's Lost Years may coincide with the time span between the release of Mabinogi, and G16.
  
  //Getting way too ahead of myself, considering that I don't fully remember the years that these things were released in Korea.
  
  But yeah, I always figured that they just goofed up. Perhaps in the perception of the Milletians, Tuatha do not really *seem* to age.
  
  EDIT: Too many edits! Sorry guys D8

  Not sure if this was pointed out already, too lazy to check, but not once did they say they were "ageless" in the commentary. (just finished it)
  The quotes I'd like to point out are -
  "I didn't know they aged THAT quickly"
  and
  "We do not age as Millitians do"
  To me, this implies that they do age, but only very slowly. The 2nd quote is probably what has people mistaken, but "We do not age as Millitians" can mean different things. One being "the same as".

  Did you read what kingofrunes said? They went back around to fix it.

  Old dialogue:
  Milletian: I thought the Tuatha de Danann weren't supposed to age.
  Ruairi: Yes, as you say Tuatha de Danann don't age.
  
  New Dialogue:
  Milletian: I thought the Tuatha de Danann weren't supposed to age that rapidly.
  Ruairi: Yes, as you say Tuatha de Danann don't age like Milletians do.

  This is correct. Glad I uploaded the video before Nexon fixed their derp in case something like this happened.

  :skip: You should upload a new one showing Nexon's derp mistakes. Just a side-by-side comparison of the derp, nothing more than that since the rest of the dialogue is all the same I think. :skip:
