They should have a policy or decision to place robots lower in priority than organics, regardless of whether you run utopian abundance or not. Honestly, I never. pro. 2 mineral. It only starts to make sense later in the game when you have high productivity multipliers to make producing consumer goods relatively cheap, which means the rebate you get from the high passive trade value goes a long ways towards subsidizing those costs. I have never used Utopian Abundance. 2 release, back when Wiz was still Game Director of Stellaris, someone asked why Utopian Abundance was restricted to egalitarian empires. One potential idea I have is running fungoids with rapid breeders and intelligent with the plan to shift to budding late game. Shared Burden or Utopian Abundance look after the negating political power and ensuring every class has equal. Also early conquests can be hard to stabilise without a lot of consumers goods to spare. Sure, I would join as a collab. Robots replace people in jobs in real life, but that is only because the government isn't mandating that companies employ people above machines. Utopian Abundance has extra hidden benefits, pops will produce (a lot) more passive trade value, the high stability will further increase the trade value. The Intelligent trait is one of the most important if you plan on galactic domination. As far as I am aware egalitarians are the only ones who can use utopian abundance and authoritarians are the only ones with access to stratified economies. Well, I have, in total, more than 500 pops (from multiple different species), living in my empire and all of them are using Utopian Abundance. It may seem counterintuitive given that you will be struggling with Consumer Goods at the beginning, but the sooner you can get your pops on UA, the better, since faction unity is a function of living standards and if you can take advantage of. So it can be challenging to outweigh the miserable slaves if they are not nerve stapled. while with egalitarian everybody is kept happy with utopian Abundance. The key difference between them is that Academic Privilege gives +10% to researcher job outputs but incurs higher Consumer Goods usage. An annoying thing that I've found is that the game continues to treat unemployment as an emigration booster even if you have utopian abundance enabled. All tiers have the same high upkeep, high trade value. But both are equally well on their way on the communist path because neither allows any kind of economic activity outside government! In Stellaris you can only set. parentheticalobject • 5 yr. robots. Let that sink in for a while.
