Is there a reason Megacorps don't get Pompous Purists and Reanimators Civics?

[ShamanMcLamie]

I'm trying to wrap my head around these decisions? I could maybe see Pompous Purists having balancing issues, I'm just not sure what since I don't dive into the Meta that much. Reanimators I don't get at all since it's much more a flavor civic.

I like to play a Megacorp with the Xenophobe ethic and was really looking forward to Pompous Purists since it could help make signing commercial pacts easier, also so I can stop getting migration treaties and was disappointed when it wasn't available for Megacorp.

Tbh megacorps should get access to most normal empire civics accept where it would contradict. Maybe even giving some special bonuses particularly to megacorps(ex aristocratic eliet for example)

I haven't even dared log in to see how much of the new content is allowed for hiveminds.

My guess is close to none.

It's not so bad. Hive Minds can be Aquatic, use Hydrocentric, and can use both new Origins.

Yeah, the dragon start being available was a sigh of relief to me.

The flavour of 2 massive entities in a symbiotic relationship is just cool.

At least from an immersion POV pompous purists doesn't make a lot of sense. Hard to stay in business when you won't answer your zoom calls.

Maybe they are like one of those businesses that has extremely specialized albeit necessary products with production that is hard to scale up, so they don't bother advertising/taking new customers unless you're a high bidder? That's how I would RP it anyways

Barring reanimators wouldn't make sense if the reanimated armies could work menial jobs. Cheap labor from the grave.
