Unique Planet Quest Chains

I like the snippet of lore that you get when you find a unique planet in the game, but it seems like there should be more to discovering them.  Several of the lore texts hint at finding secrets on the planets, but there is no in-game significance to this.  I would like to see a short quest chain that is offered when a unique planet is discovered or the system it is in is settled.  The quest chain would be a great opportunity to present additional lore about the worlds, and hopefully offer a related reward for completing the quest chain.  


If the quest chain is tied to being the first to discover the planet, or requires settling the system, this would also add variety to additional playthroughs since you would be unlikely to see more than a few of the unique quest chains in a single game.

Absolutely. In an empire of 20something systems, it takes a lot for indivdual planets to be memorable, and this quest idea would be intstrumental in achieving that.

I'd also like to see unique planets have (I forget the terminology...) battlefield effects just like black holes and asteroid fields and other features. I'd like to see fighters and bombers have extra power when battling for the Hissho origin world of Sykagoja; I'd like to see science gained per enemy defeated in orbit around the research world of Tor, and so on.

I know its a bit much to ask and I know a lot of people find the cutscenes to be repetitive, but can we have more cutscenes for the main quest as well as this feature's additions? If a quest is important enough I feel it should get a little extra ;)

I'd certainly be down for it. At the very least for planets like Veil, I'm curious why they don't come pre-packaged with, at the very least, some manner of Detection 4 Curiosity that holds an Anomaly for all of their snazzy bonuses.

I really like this Idea - I must say whever I find a unique planet I assume something more will come of it than does. It's still reall cool, butthink thiswould be a great idea, even if it jsut fleshes out the lore a bit.

Hey nice idea! I would love this, hope it gets implemented. Also it would be cool to have like a unique video for those planets, right now when you colonize them you get the normal one for that type of planet.

This is definitely a fantasic idea. I hope it gets picked up.


I would love any optertunity for the devs to give more flavour and depth to the endless universe; to build upon the fantasic lore already established in the game


It would be great to get more involved in there more unique aspects, perhaps a techology or minor race or permanent buff. A hidden element to the game only discovered through the succeessful completion of the quest itself??

Nice to have

The NICE TO HAVE status is given by the dev team to ideas they would like to have in the game.

Do both, please
