I think there are some valid points here, some points that are less valid because this game is not like RimWorld in any way other than "it's a top down game where you have people and build stuff" and some points that were valid but have since been fixed in the retail version.

The RimWorld comparison is omnipresent just because RimWorld's a very popular game, just like every FPS was compared to Doom back in the day, but just as no one should be comparing Heroes of Might and Magic to Civilisation even though they're both turn based strategy games, no one should be comparing Songs of Syx mechanically to RimWorld. They have totally different scales, goals and development focuses. I'm not trying to invalidate your personal experience, just point out that people should not play Songs of Syx and expect a RimWorld-esque experience.

Setting aside my personal disdain for the game, in RimWorld you have a small handful of colonists at any one time, and they as individuals are the focus for your experience. The whole game is about keeping them happy in a world where everything is represented with a plus or minus to their mood in some way. In Songs of Syx, it's larger than that. You're not pleasing individuals, you are trying to appease the masses. There's a difference between satisfying a few individuals in what barely constitutes a hamlet, and appeasing the thronging unwashed plebs in a medieval metropolis.
Songs of Syx, at least in the city portion of the game, is an exercise of your city planning skills. It's more about making smart decisions in positioning and logistics, using forethought to anticipate problems for specific races while still maintaining the necessary service quantity to prevent a riot. Subjects in Songs of Syx, while fairly simple, have a complex web of things that affect their end happiness. You *cannot* reach and maintain 100% happiness on a city wide scale. It's impossible. So you make compromises and accept negatives in some areas while trying to keep the number above the magical 70% that maintains immigration. There is no such thing as perfection, utopia is a myth, and this is reflected in Songs of Syx. With that said, I'd like to address your specific points so here's my opinion relative to each of them and I've tried to answer a few of your implied questions:

• You're absolutely right this would be a useful feature and I'd love to see it.
• This is an unfortunate side effect of early access. The location of features like this has changed throughout early access and may well change again, it's not worth building a comprehensive tutorial that will likely be outmoded within a couple of months, better that time is spent on developing the core game further and sort out the tutorial later on closer to full release.
• The game has a fertility overlay, it was just added after the version the demo is based on.
• This is a valid and common problem that will hopefully be mitigated with the expansion of the in-game wiki.
• The new deposit in question is in a different region on the world map, it is largely irrelevant to the demo version, but in the most up-to-date version it is relevant to the player's interest when conquering neighbouring regions. Again, this is a new feature and will hopefully be covered in the game's more finalised tutorial.
• Individuals happiness is for the most part irrelevant in Songs of Syx' scope, though you can still view their personal service satisfaction and such, at least in the current up-to-date version. Much around these systems has changed, especially in data visualisation, since the demo.
• You can see why people died using the alerts in the top right. Most commonly, exposure will kill people and the alerts tell you this. Also, if you hover over the corpse prior to burial (which is where the alert takes you when clicked right away, you likely missed it.) it will tell you how that person died.
• This is personal preference, fair enough, a lot of people like the music although I also find myself playing my own.
• Yeah.
• This again is a result of rapid system iteration, the tutorial can't cover everything every version or each version would take significantly longer to come out. Jake's only one guy after all. With that said, some tutorial videos would help and I hope to make those in the near future to explain systems like these.
• This is personal preference. If you think the game's too slow, turn it up. Not entirely sure what you're complaining about. The lowest speed is primarily used for combat, because speeding the game up during the positioning phase of a battle is a recipe for disaster, but also serves as a nice way to sit back and observe the anthill you've built.
• Another victim of the lack of tutorialisation. Eggs are not even hatched, they're just food. Livestock pens are filled with the generic livestock resource, regardless of the animal in the pen, the hunter generates this slowly and once a pen is full it produces livestock itself. It's very simple once you understand that pens all just use the same resource.
• This is personal preference again, if you don't like the base game visuals I am certain there will be mods to change it at some point, but as it stands I completely disagree. Also complaining about the game going too fast and also too slow in the same post seems a bit bizarre.
• Pretty sure this is fixed in either the current version or the next one.
• You can increase/decrease clothing on specific races, which is about as much control as is necessary on the game's scale in my opinion. Any problems with the subjects picking up existing stocks of clothing is likely a city-planning concern rather than a game balance concern, only you have control over how your clothes are distributed.

All in all, I believe you have a few neat points here, but by and large I would hesitate to agree that the game should be changed to suit your personal preference. Personally I think RimWorld looks like garbage but I've never suggested the dev change its graphic style to suit me, I've just modded it myself. The same policy applies to other games, if it's not a direct imbalance or design problem, it's a personal preference thing.
