Forsaken Town is strange

[凝滞雪雾]

If you meet this event after many towns, it is likely that you get a lot bonus. And residence bonus, a very important one, will make residence count too large at embark. Image: 40 people to start at storm.
And this event show up too much. I have meet 5+ forsaken towns in half a circle.

I think i know what you mean and i agree, there is potential that your cycle bonuses and embark choices will interfere too negatively on the event to the point where there it might be impossible to save the event. Since it seems to always start in the early parts of a storm, if you brought too many extra ppl into it (maybe involuntarily because of bonuses that is benefitial everywhere else), there will not be enough time to fix it before you start a death spiral (for example there might be no way to reduce the hostility to an acceptable level that was intended, even if removing all woodcutters etc).

I wonder if this is intended or not, so that either we have to learn to bring the least amount of ppl to this event or avvoid it if we have too many ppl bonuses already, OR that there will be an update where the difficulty is balanced more towards how many ppl you start with.

As far as the frequency goes im not sure, i think i have seen it 2-3 times since it released and thought that was fine. Perhaps they increased the frequency a little to make sure "everyonee" got to see the new thing and then they will decrease it later, but im happy i got to try it a couple times at least :)

Currently Forsaken Town appears more frequently so everyone can experience the new event. Later it will probably appear as frequently as any other event.

I got two of them in a row. Since it only counts the years after you take over it is very time efficient with the blight storm cycle. The rewards are also nice.

I didn't get any

Maybe I need to start a new cycle?
