@Botek1234, while getting Dark is still a slog, you do eventually get Dark Legs once you have 200 Legs, which gives a minimum of 10x faster Dark, and more as you accumulate Liquid Dark.
On top of that, you also get a 5% Dark multiplier per point of Liquid Dark. One full Dark Capsule has 100 points of Liquid Dark. So with one full Dark Capsule, this upgrade's original 10x will be multiplied by 5 and become 50x.
Imagine being 28, getting into a secretive organization of advanced physicists, and feeling proud of yourself for how smart you are...
Then you find out the CEO is in his early 20's, and isn't currently actually doing anything because he already left to be the CEO of Yugle too.
Plus his real age is technically like over 3,000, if the rumors you're hearing are true. You really don't know what to believe anymore.
Something about getting to the point where you make progress so fast that Mrs. Pennywise can live to see you become a CEO and destroy an alien spaceship with an absurdly powerful laser is a little bit touching.
Thank you for cumulatively giving me tons of candy and a over a million dollars over the course of my past lives... besides the one where I stole your wallet. I'm glad you don't remember that one.
Your parents want a 300 dollar a month rent as soon as you're 18, and also immediately force you to spend 600 a month on food... Jeez.
But I'd honestly accept that if this is the kind of universe where you can immediately get a job that actually has promotions and consistent raises, and everything is truly only about qualifications rather than luck and networking.
The fact that in total, it would apparently take someone hundreds of years to completely stop slacking feels like a really pessimistic way of looking at human nature...
And yet, I totally believe it.
What if the country we're playing as is actually a completely alien invasive species to the planet with advanced technology in certain areas (thus the genes and ascension mechanic) and the ability to advance at a comparatively terrifying rate that allows them to quickly catch up to even exponentially stronger countries. This race is also far more cold, violent, and efficient than the native species (thus, having no need for any sort of entertainment buildings, barely caring about the millions that starve in population fluctuations, and never wanting any sort of trade or diplomacy)
So everyone leaves you alone and never instigates war because they're scared shitless of you, and they don't know how to get rid of you without potentially making things worse.
Me in real life: War is horrible and senseless. :C
Me in this game: *instigates every single war and conquers over 100 countries* What? I need the resources. You should /congratulate/ me for taking some of the burden off of my country's own workers.
I like how this is so simple, yet it's way more engaging and fascinating than the awful game-making model of "add a bunch of timers and waiting to a free game that was never designed to have those things at all until the player gets impatient enough to pay you for faster playing"
My biggest "problem" with this game: I have to completely close the game window or I will obsessively check up on the tab every few minutes all day long
I think the clean minimalism makes sense in an odd kind of way.
A ruthlessly efficient insect horde wouldn't have any particular concern for aesthetics, after all.
