For humans many of our cultural and social practices are based on a 'fear of the dark' primarily because we can't see the things lurking in the shadows. For a race with darkvision that fear of shadows becomes less pronounced, they no longer need to gather indoors around the fire to keep out the things that go bump in the night. Being out at night still isn't best practice but we no longer have that lingering fear of shadows in the closet or boogeymen under the bed.I'm not sure what this might change so I'll keep thinkingSocially I think that in warm climates it might result in a more 'open street social life' with night time parties in the main street of town with city guards posted around to keep an eye on things (inside and out). So instead of abandoned streets where theives hide in the alleyways you have busy nighttime markets, outdoor theatres and street parties/madi gras where pickpockets ply the crowds.</blockquote>
