ENDLESS™ Space 2 is turn-based 4X space-strategy that launches players into the space colonization age of different civilizations within the ENDLESS™ Universe. Your Vision. Their Future.
we are not entirely satisfied with how happiness is working right now, we'll need to give you more ways to influence it, through politics among other things, and with more interesting consequences as well.
I agree with the overall notion of this topic though, it's weird that starving my population to make the rest of my population happy is... weird. I mean, it's amusing and I like the idea of being able to play as an evil, mad dictator but starvation shouldn't be the best option you have haha.

Oh certainly, but ES1 gave you a bit more freedom in that regard. In the public version of ES2 (the one that we're allowed to post footage of) you can make one colony without approval tech - any more and you're likely to run into problems.
I'm pretty sure that this harsh disapproval penalty will be fine tuned and less sudden but I can't really elaborate on that NDA is an NDA after all.

But sometimes there is simply not enough time for researching happiness techs or building the necessary planetary improvemenents. In times of war for example.
And it is easier for the player to destroy improvements and starve his people to death so that their happiness will increase.
Why should this be a more preferable solution than a simple decrease in taxes?
If anything, starving population should be a modifier that decreases happiness, not the opposite.

In addition to that your systems level up - so you want to carefully balance wide and tall expansion of your empire for the maximum efficiency.
