What does prestige do?

[Jijifanatic]

I have like 10k prestige, what can I use it for?

Hi ! Prestige is your score at the end of the game, if you reach at least the first thresholds you'll gain some of the currency that will allow you to unlock images in the gallery in the starting menu.

They need to add something else for prestige! The gallery images are not enough to motivate me to build the buildings that only give you prestige.

I agree, it should be used to buy perks for your next game - that would improve playability. I honestly thought the gallery was going to do that and each picture was a perk, but no, its JUST images.

I'd imagine this would be fairly easy to implement though, fortunately, being that every unlocked image (and you could turn them on and off) could be coded to impact a variable on your active game.

Some things that would be cool to use prestige for:
1. New facial features would be cool (could be little tweaks from existing ones because otherwise the appeal to buy the supporters edition would faint)

2. Changing the colors of buildings (for example 5k prestige lets you buy the option to paint buildings green or something)

3. Soundtracks

4. Name-sets (I have too many aurore in my game)

Prestige should be converted into some "Metaprogression-Points" where you can buy perks to change or improve the buildings or production chains. Maybe stuff like all newly build houses start with 1 additional space already unlocked or all buildings have their base production increased by 1/2/3/4/5 as a tiered perk.

You're onto something here! I’d love to see this.

Another problem with prestige is that there is no benefit to earning more than 40k prestige. Once you hit that threshold, any additional prestige is pointless. In fact, from a meta-gaming standpoint, the best thing you can do at that point is to give up and start a new game
