I want Racial purity? Does that make me evil?

[jonatron5]

I was playing as the united earth, trying to make a startrek like federation, and I was expanding and met four or five different civilizations, that agreed to federate with me, I signed migration treaties, was having a blast, but then later into the game I looked at my ethnic demographics and humans where a minority, in the UNITED EARTH civilization.

Well no big deal, humans represent such a tiny portion of the Galaxy anyway, so I brushed that off and kept playing.

But then I clicked on Earth and Humans where a minority on earth too...

That kinda struck a cord with me. I mean I want to be open and liberal, and inviting and allow other races to settle in my lands and work together in harmony....But by the same token, earth for the earthlings lol.

The interesting part of this, and perhaps what makes it a good game, is the ability to compare it to modern immigration crisis the world is experiencing.

What do you guys think? A minority of humans on earth, is that a problem ? Or am I just being a bigot?

 

[Derp]

clearly the humans wanted to go elsewhere

 

[Untrustedlife]

No comment, but in utopia you will be able to limit which species have access to your home-world/core worlds.

 

[extrapancake]

Well, in a world with genetic manipulation, psychic connections and synth mind uploads, differences in species dont seem to make much of a real difference. What is the benefit in united earth being majority human? Why should it matter?

 

[jonatron5]

All those aliens migrating to my home stealing my jobs

 

[mocoman2001]

What did you do to make all the humans want to leave?

No idea,

As humorous as it is to say, I think the immigrants are actually out breeding the humans, becuase I chose slow breeders as a trait

 

[BrokenSky]

I'm not sure whether it really matters how you feel about the whole minority on your homeworld type thing, but I find it annoying when I'm playing an empire with a diverse population of aliens when on a significant number of worlds, especially newly colonised ones immigration brings in a significant number of pops woefully unsuited to the planet type (like ~35% habitability).

 

[Sheriff Godwin Law]

Right, but you're still going to start with about 8 people on your planet, for the early parts of the game you're population on your home planet is still growing. You should have at least 12 or 13 people on your planet before you're even able to get the Federation tech.

To get to be the minority on your home world, alot of your people had to immigrate away. If you want to avoid this next time, build some happiness buildings, run some propaganda broadcasts, make your people want to be on their capital.

 

[TheDeadlyShoe]

Yeah. This can't happen without a lot of emigration.

 

[jonatron5]

Maby the aleins built tourist centers?

 

[Caspoi]

Short answer: yes.

Long answer: if you don't want to have a lot of aliens then don't sign migration agreements, that way you won't have any aliens inside your empire apart from those that you conquer. You should also not also not adopt xenophile ehos and playstyle if it makes you uncomfortable but remember that as long as the aliens are not xenophobes you won't have any problems with them and a multicultural Earth could be seen as testomony of the greatness of your federation.

Ok I like what your saying I really do, however if trend continues, eventually I could wind up in a scenario where my personal government, is ruled entirely by xenos.

Just seems kinda wierd

 

[TheDeadlyShoe]

If they start putting up signs like THIS IS YOUR GOD and OBEY, perhaps you should leave your federation and get a-purgin...

Said xenos are however still citizens in your federation, why is it a problem that they would also be part of it's leadeship?

Honestly as I said it seems that you are somewhat averse to a xenophile playthrough, luckily you don't have to be xenophile...

 

[Endless Rain]

What do you guys think? A minority of humans on earth, is that a problem ? Or am I just being a bigot?

You are, in your own words, "just being a bigot". If you have the Xenophile ethic, as the United Nations of Earth does, being on a planet with lots of aliens will actually make your pops happier. Odds are, your Human pops emigrated from Earth because they want to live on planets with lots of aliens. Trying to enforce Xenophobic policies in a nation of Xenophiles will just make everyone hate you.

That seems like an entirely natural cultural evolution over time, yes.

You welcome and integrate any and all interested alien species, working them into your society- if humans are also migrating away to other places at the same time and become a minority, you've nautrally created a highly mixed society in which humans are no more likely to be in a position of leadership than any other species.

 

[TheDeadlyShoe]

Look, it's noones fault that everyone would rather bang Space Elves than fellow humans. That's just life in a Sci-fi universe.

In fact, come the Utopia Expansion there will be an exciting and impressive new range of abilities pretty much exclusive to Xenophobe playthroughs.

I myself am looking forward to my Xenophobe robot playthrough. My loyal people will have their needs met by enslaved space elf babes who will oil our actuators, polish our chrome and bring us great happiness.
