Will we ever be able to ditch the Factions system in favor of the Estates while as Republics?

Factions were horribly underwhelming since their implementation and 1.30 actually has an engaging Estate system.

Or as Venice just go Monarchy ASAP?

I hope they use the estate stuff and just repurpose it for republics factions. Remove crownland obviously and just have the 3 factions in the estate window with the diet objective things

I'm looking at doing a 4 million income game as an MR so can we please hold off on any changes to Merchant Republic Factions just for now because that 10% Goods Produced is gonna help

But yeah a revamp or complete removal would be nice. Maybe just convert the three factions into estates to begin with and build on that.

Complaints over republic mechanics has been in for a long time.

The reality though, is that Res Public DLC is more than 6 years old and isn't (from my understanding) a particularly popular DLC, so we're not likely to see much rework on it.

Very much agreed, the factions mechanic has to be one of the, if not the single worst mechanic in the game right now.
That's why I took to myself to try and overhaul the mechanic through modding, at least to by best capabilities.
It's the first mod in my signature, "The Internal Balance".
