Advisor ( random old 4x question )

Post by Chris0War »

I do hope the advisors will take on another shape in distant worlds 2. A couple of tabs with different departments and the given advice is something that at least I would see as prefered. I remember some older 4x games both Sf and Fantasy that had report pages containing advice + reasoning. Wouldn't it be sweet if you could access a page and see that the recommended fleet size should be ........ based on x annual income ( and maybe even the notion that empire x and y are progressily becoming more hostile towards you )

Do others remember those specific titles that had those report tabs ?

Of course a half year message in the main ui could also be helpfull as opposed against 10 messages per 5 days, even if you have the option of disabling those
Yes of course we can spend money to keep the populace happy

Yeah the messaging system for advisors can quickly turn into a hot mess once things start to heat up as you expand. Mid game the sidebar is flying by so fast I can't keep up with them all.
