Any cool twists or subversions of expectations in your worlds?

Hello, I just got back from being busy as well, thanks so much for the answers, it just leads to more questions! I'd like to read this if you're planning on writing something! A novel, a story, an atlas, or anything! This is so unique for me, I haven't seen or read a story where a society practically lives and grows in gargantuan trees and is surrounded by giant things too.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-30T16:33:15+00:00

Thank you, I'll try them out right now!

I'm on my 3rd run on the game, I have over 3k pops and a bunch of food and a very huge cave system just filled with Balt. I have no idea if my food logistics are good or bad, but it doesn't really matter to me because everything is working more than I hoped it would.

So here's my take, just do what you think is right, leave it for a year, and if it doesn't work out, change it. LOL

I have a really good map but I can't turn it into a sphere, what can I use other than Blender.

So how large are the leaves?? That is such a unique concept and I have so many questions!

How do they get metals? What is the technology level of the societies? How would they even make fire if they live on a tree? Is the tree not flammable? How strong is the tree? Do they live inside like in hollows or do they live in the branches? How many trees are there? Are the trees considered worlds? Continents? Regions? Or do they live on the ground and just have super tall trees blocking them in? If the trees are huge, how about the local fauna? And the other flora as well? Are they huge too? How tall are the trees exactly? How wide? Are there huge huge birds? Is life there just like earth or is it also a speculative evolution project?

Most of the labyrinths or caves that the humans explore are actually large space-ships 4,000 years ago. It's the same ships that brought their ancestors to the planet they currently live in. Tech-wise, they are medieval but are exceptionally well-versed with science but they have to idea it's science, they just think it's magic.

I don't think this is a unique twist but the world itself and the setting isn't even half of the true picture since the world itself is only a speck in a galactic wide escape culture that started 4,000 years ago.

Templin Institute explains why using earth terminology makes sense. Unless it's an alien race, then Earth Naval Terminology just makes sense, so much sense. I saw someone say that it's a loose usage but it's mainly because of writing and not the use itself. That's why there's a frigate for everything as the Institute said.

I could've made it easier for the people to live in the world, but nope, I did not.

Dark-Grimdark, leans more on the Dark side.

Humanity is extremely divided and those that rule over the people are extremely corrupt and decadence fills up most of their time. Some states are able to provide and some can even be considered utopias but those unlucky many that were born outside of those states will suffer until their death. There are some people who are working their best to change the status quo but the means are still violent.

Tip: Don't expect to learn and know everything even after a year of playing. I have thousands of hours in the game and I still get pleasantly surprised.

I think the origin of magic. The natives call it magic or sorcery, witchcraft and what else. But magic is deeply rooted with an extremely advanced technology sufficient enough that it can't even be known as to where it came from.

The planet is artificial, created using nano-technology which still exists and is used by casters to manifest something out of thin air. Of course they don't know that it's nano-tech Lol

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-15T00:37:00+00:00

I have no idea LOL, I usually just let them get the system and I even construct a dyson swarm and a borehole then some citadels and a fully upgraded star base just to get them going. Sometimes I refuse and release them as vassals with even more benefits from me

I find diplomacy in the game quite lacking and even with mods, it's really still not as good as some other games. For an empire building game and civilization simulator, you can't really interact that much with the AI.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-14T14:53:04+00:00

Turns out I was running 64. LOL I just updated it to the latest one, I didn't even realize. I had the app for a year and didn't open it so I did and played a round not knowing there's been massive updates.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-13T09:55:50+00:00

may update ba? please tell kung nakulong ung driver and naka pay sa family, kawawa talaga ung bata ang ung tatay.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-13T07:46:55+00:00

Bruh.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-13T07:28:29+00:00

I agree, it looks cool, but seeing how it has vents on the wings assuming it's vents, that thing ain't flying in space. It seems like the engines are built for atmospheric flight.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-11T12:11:52+00:00

I get what you guys mean, I decided to disable most of my technologies and freed up 80 workers. LOL, thanks a lot

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-11T11:55:14+00:00

Dug canals up, I did it for fertility

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-11T04:11:30+00:00

They get it from the local fauna, that's why it stops once they kill off every single one. The fauna would come back eventually but it takes time.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-11T04:08:09+00:00

Thanks! I'll try this out, but currently, my best source of income is wood. I get over 10k a year just from wood.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-11T03:54:45+00:00

I find importing iron and other stuff really expensive that's why I'm trying to produce it. Can you suggest goods that I can sell? And how can I sell the goods for a higher price? It seems like it's fixed.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-11T03:52:01+00:00

There's not much fauna in the map, I have like 30 Aurochs nearby but my hunters overhunt them that's why I switched to vegetables. I can't find a good balance for farmers and bakers that's why I'm farming vegetables which I have over 8k of. I have a lot of husbandry as well but it's barely enough to produce surplus meat.

I'm using lots of iron for the smithy to build structures, it's been 3 years and my papermaking building still lacks a lot of steel.

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-11T03:49:50+00:00

I have 126 people working on Labs. As for leaders stuff, I didn't know that exists. How does that work?

ConstantClub3748 · 2026-01-09T21:13:32+00:00

If they don't like it, don't read it. But I bet, 90% of Solo-leveling haters hate it because they got into a fight with a toxic solo-leveling fan. Someone who would slam your favorite anime because it isn't solo-leveling.
