Graaien could be clutch, claw, scrabble, grasp, or snatch, maybe?

You're again correct, they use a lovely little modifier we call in English "And". It lets you do two things as one thing. So you can legalize something, and regulate it, in one legislative action. But you couldn't regulate something, and then legalize it, because if the government is regulating something they've defacto legalized it. If it's illegal it can't be regulated because the only regulation allowed for illegal things is "none at all ever".

Yeah, correct. But you can't implement that framework on anything until it is legalized. It can be your very next action. But the lawful government cannot, by definition regulate illegal activity, so first you pass one legal motion and then you do the next. That doesn't mean you can't have a plan for move 2 before you make move 1.

It can't be regulated until it's legalized. Once it is it should be.

I hope not, no offense. I was just getting myself figured out and that'd be a whole new thing.

I just moved into a camper trailer, and one of my favorite things is the tiny showerhead is close to the toilet, and even has a little valve lever at the spray end to turn it on and off, just like it was designed to be a bidet. I don't care if it was designed that way, it is one now.

I don't see a turf grass lawn, so it's got that going for it.

For whatever it's worth, even if elements of the plot have been recognized as Good Story TM already by other games, that doesn't take away from your idea. Tropes become tropes because people like them. Who knows if you'll ever get to work on this particular idea you've had, but from hearing your idea I feel like you have that sort of knack for good story beats that a writer needs.

You've come up with a neat game. I'd enjoy playing it. I think you've moved beyond remake and into sequel territory, though. The multiple parties working at odds reminds me of the Golden Sun series.

Oh that? That's just where the bird had painful rashes and lesions from being made to lie, stand, eat, sleep, breed, breathe, and die knee deep in shit. In shit. It's fine to eat.

Can you tell me the other drawbacks?
