so, i just played through this game and it is amazing.
The Bugs i encounterd seem to have already been reported. But i have two suggestions:
1. Reduce the number of Planets/Stations on the map
At least for me there are way to many Planets. I get that it makes sense for an interstellar empire to own this many Planets, but for me as a player, when it came to immersion, it didnt really matter if i had 25 or 1000 Planets, because i only modified like 5 or 6 of them specifically. The other 1000+ Planets where only there to generate Money. And them i had to search all these Planets everytime i wanted to find the few only i was converting to breeding colonies/Slave factories/...
my suggestion would be to leave the galaxy map as it is, but most star systems only have Planets as Visuals or. Then you only conquer the sytems on the large Map and they add a flat value to your income and give a few slaves every Month. This could then be modified by empire-wide decisions and new Techs you unlock.
And have like 30-50 Planets you can modify. This could also possibly reduce late-game-lag, because you dont have to calculate for 1000+ Populations.
2. More frequent Quest-/Story-Events
I really liked the conversations with the other leaders and, but they are so rare i steamrolled the galaxy bevor i event met everyone at least once.
Same goes for Storylines like the Time traveling assassin. I basicly finished the game, but still havent gotten the 3rd Event
Maybe add some late-game or a gift from entropy, that lets you influence reality itself. And by this a mean add a slider for quest frequency and a
