I really like the idea of planet colonization cutscenes (ocean cutscene is my favourite one).

How about making more of them? For example, adding a small button near each planet description. It will play small (5 sec) repeating video of planet surface but without colonization ship in the sky.

Also video can be different depending on system level. First level - small outpost on a surface. Third level - animated metropolis.

If some stuff like that will be addedd as a DLC, I will buy it for sure!

that would be good

This would be cool, considering you never actually see the more hostile planets as colonising the highest food ones is better.

Vodyani has none of that. Much sad.

I absolutely love those colonisation cut scenes, especially the Forest and Ash Planet ones.

It really makes the game feel more immersive and I'd love to see animated colonies on the surface.

I have them turned off actually...

I would prefer some basic cut-szenes for the Quest Steps imho.
