Research need rebalance thats for sure its waay to costly and too slow in some points.

Yes, by 1930 I have a billion dollars. My actors and director and producer win the awards every year, but they are upset about the quality of food...even though I can't do anything about that. My movies make 30, 40, 50 or more in profits, I can put out a movie ever month, they can rate 75-87, doesn't matter, they all make huge money. There is a lot of fun things, but I wonder why there is no depth. I can't believe this is how the game is supposed to be. I just hope updates that do come out start adding things that make you think, maybe make decisions and some could be wrong decisions that impact things more. Right now, you can make a movie, don't really do anything and just release it. Directing scenes really has no impact. Hope this changes.

So now that you know what you know......try hard, limit your researchers, do not use guides or hints, and only release movies rated 90+.....and see if that makes for a better challenge

so force yourself to not play the game as its built? seems like an error in gaming challenge, maybe try a higher challenge level. overall though, yes starting in 1920 it does seem easy, but it sounds like you need to bank all that for later in the game. cash flow maybe movie income should reduce by 90% or something until later in the game, some sort of income penalty per year would be nice.

You have something better to do until the update is posted?

I think it is not costly enough financially, but in time definitely

cost slows down research so you don't research everything in a few short months making the rest of the era boring like in the 20's. The point is to have research make tech available spread out over an entire era. For example 72000 point tech would take 6-8 years, and that is one of the cost heavy techs.

I agree with you about pacing, it still needs to be 'contained' in the era. At the same time, I wonder if it is not an opportunity to use research as a way to spend money that is too abundant (at least if you start in 1920, I restarted in 1940 and it feels better tbh).
So my idea would be : yes, still use the researchers, but also do like in other games : we will research THAT topic in the tree, and there is a monetary cost of $50.000 to do so?
Just an idea.

Hi everyone! Yup we are aware of the fact that the game is currently a bit too easy. We have addressed it already in the recent updates. And we will keep addressing it until we arrive at a reasonable compromise for everyone ☺️
