I glad a new system is added, but i have my doubts. For example, how clerks will operate now? - and what trade base empires will do now? (becasue previously they could print energy credits out of trade value) - what will happen to piracy and crime in general?

Also, videos on YT would be nice to understand the new mechanics

Thats a strange one. Why dont you guys change "energy" to "credits"? There are quite some ways to gain funds in the galaxy, trade and selling power is one of them.
I liked the traderoutes. They added feeling, now it is more a numbers game than before. Logistics has nothing to do with trade - Looking forward to the update tho, keep it up guys!

STRONGLY disagree with making Megacorp buildings cost Influence.

Influence was already far too limited, and annoying, of a resource. IF anything, fewer systems should utilize it...

25 crime is nothing, its just a regulair megacorp now.

Oh joy! We're back to the normal, good style of portraits and have abandoned those horrendous looking ones from The Machine Age

like the portraits, but would love a couple of ship sets please!

Hmm. I hope trade value and policies will be adjusted in such a way that it remains possible to build an empire without technicians, artisans and even bureaucrats with the Trade League. It remains my favourite playstyle to this day, even though it is anything but optimal nowadays. We still need an equivalent of merchant guilds for megacorps, it's a little embarrassing.
It sounds like they're effectively cutting the trade policy gains in half. That doesn't make me hopeful, but I'll look forward to testing it.

Oh and, repeatable trade value research maybe?

Why were they so bad in your opinion?
