I really hope the next big update will give some TLC for Bio Hive Minds

I like playing Bio Hive mind empires but as of The Machine age, they are kind of one of the weaker playstyles at the moment due to Biological Ascenscion being the worst ascension path at the moment.

I hope that in the future, we will also get some new stuff for Hive Minds, especially an Organic Ship Set like what the Prethoryn Scourge has. At the moment, the most organic looking Ship Set we have are the Aquatic Ships.

In addition, I would love to see a lot of the more story/flavour origins be opened up to Hive minds, such as Scion, Fear of The Dark, Broken Shackles, Payback and Synthetic Fertility.

At the moment, the only Origin that feels good to take to play Hive Minds is Progenitor Hives due to the passive leader exp.

And lastly, the first Hive Mind Origin, aka The Tree Of Life, needs a bit of an update. It feels like it could have a very interesting story, and the bonuses it gives just need to be better. Compared to other Origins, a bit of research and pop growth is not that amazing compared to other origin bonuses.

Do any of you agree with me? Or are you a bit sick of hiveminds at this point?

Lack of hivemind and especially full-organic aesthetics (ala., swarm, zerg, tyranids, etc.) is definitely the most obviously lacking part of the game's empires right now.

This and I was also thinking of the aliens in The Expanse. They really are alien.
