For those who haven't yet seen it, this post is about one of the abilities the Agrarian orientation gives cultures, as seen in this screenshot. 

Now, the name does fit the ability: El Dorado is a utopia, so it makes sense as the name for an ability that attracts people in search of a better place to live. But I feel that the name and its connotations do not fit the agrarian orientation. El Dorado is typically imagined as a city filled to the brim with wealth, where the streets are paved with gold and everyone is rich. Its name literally means 'the golden one'. Because of this it sounds more like something the merchant orientation would get, as that one is focused around wealth generation, as opposed to the agrarian orientation which focuses on food output and population growth, not gold. 

An alternative I'd like to propose is "land of milk and honey". It still has the connotations of a utopia that would attract immigrants, but the food in the name fits the agrarian typing much better thematically. Especially considering that the requirement to trigger the ability is based on your food production. 

I agree with this statement, although I understand that in France we have a bit of a broader meaning for the expression El Dorado it still certainly hold the idea of physical wealth in most of the other countries, as such I think a name like "Land of Milk and Honey" sound better and suit the typing much more!

Yeah, seems a better fit.

I like this idea

I'd assume it's a placeholder developer name (especially since it's lacking a space between El and Doradao). But yeah, should be changed if it isn't, agreed.

I'd say it's placeholder as well, but just fyi "Eldorado" as a single word is also a valid spelling of the term.

I like this for the name change to the ability!

Yeah, I agree too. Hopefully it is a placeholder, but otherwise it should be changed

The name of the ability is indeed a placeholder, and will be changed before the release. The writing team liked your suggestion, even though they haven't settled on the final ability name yet.

From what I've been told, our writers are kicking around "Land of Plenty."

That does sound like a nice one too, and has the benefit of being shorter.

Just popped to mind:

"Toss a coin to your Witcher
O Valley of Plenty!"

Here it would be more akin to "Toss a pop to your city"

The normal version, or the awesome cyberpunk version?
