Dang . Nice job ! How well do you like the wnw color correctors ? <| sep |> Game took me about 70 hours to finish . <| sep |> In class , we often talk about Shakespeare having a few ' bosses ', especially royalty and feepaying customersThus the plays need to satisfy all markets . My take on it is that uneducated does not equal stupid . Readers , they may not have been , BUT they had a keen EAR possibly because so much storytelling was oral . The reasonably educated could spot a rhetorical device when they heard one everyone seemed to have loved a pun in those days which is what my students call the ' dad joke ' and rhyme and rhythm do not need a degree . Ask yourself and anyone you know how many song lyrics they know . Tune into an oldies station and test yourself how long since you heard that one ? It is largely rhyme and rhythm that have produced these amazing feats of memory . As leopoldbloom says , the number of classical references is suggestive of a level of education . On the other hand , I often wonder if the ' mechanical ' scenes are there to please the lowest classes of audience . A final word on comedy . Very little of it is ' slapstick '. Again , I think you need a level of education or intelligence to understand most of the funnies in Shakespeare .
