' Wrote:Disco devs spent a lot of time to a useless feature like Gallia, probably they havent thought much about it's place in FL world before adding. I think major issue here is language. Gallia - non-english, Kusari - non-english. that's why they are not populated much. I can hardly imagine full english speaking french followers, losing national language is not typical even over centuries.
cornwall has lost all of its native speakers in the last 100 years. wales nearly followed suit.
' Wrote:As far as I can tell, the reason Gallia has been less than popular is because:
6. Their tech is incompatible with the rest of Sirius (they don't share).
5. They are inconveniently located at the farthest upper corner of the map where few players bother to go.
4. Their NPCs are uber buff and a continual pain in the rear.
3. France just isn't as intriguing as Germany, Japan, or Britain.
2. France has never been known for it's military prowess outside of the Napoleonic era, yet they are single handedly bulldozing the entirety of Sirius for... revenge? Seems like they have self-esteem issues.
1. There was little to no desire to bring in another house, regardless of who that house would have been. Players wanted the existing house lore to expand and improve based on player interaction. That didn't happen.
Fix those problems, and you fix Gallia.
you sir, win the thread. i would only add 7. its just too damn far to trade anything, and pirates look at the cargo and ask for 15m, rather than five
