the game after stage 1000 death portal: 10-20min progress, 6h waiting or using much much more gems than you can earn ingame, sadly 1/5 is the lowest rating
that you only need 4 red crystals limits the game enormously
it should be balanced around expanding, not looking for the tightest 4 crystals and just bunker up, which is quite boring
did my first prestige at 100 inflation after ~90min... 5min later i was at over 1k inflation because the skills put you into overdrive after each prestige
occupied = more force than a system = a small part of the systems wealth
connected = more force and trade than the systems trade = bigger part of systems wealth and added tradepower
included = more culture than the system = all stats added to your own
you need to completly rework the interface and drastically reduce the micromanagement by reducing the need to look up 20 different things when you want to build something
Oh! That's true! I will be reworking attributes soon and that shall be fixed in the process! Thank you for pointing it out! :D
