Been browsing this thread and wasn't able to find an answer.
In one of the teasers the organic sanctuary was shown (https://twitter.com/Martin_Anward/status/893542173882413057). Did Wiz revealed how moddable the new pop_requirement is? It would be great if aside of the living standard it could be be also restricted to pop traits.

Keep in mind, it's a 20% to all ressources (gained by robots), +2 Influence (which is easly 20% of what you gain lategame, anyways), and Unity, which you can only generate from planet-unique buildings otherwise.
I would say, +- this could turn out balanced. For the finer details and judgement, we'll have to wait to see how it plays out.
They need to look at the V.O. for hiveminds. Why would it be "We have done xyz" when a gestalt conciousness would have no concept of "Us". Would it not be better for the Hive Mind V.O. to say "I have done xyz"?
a hive mind would have no concept of language, it simply thinks and acts, this is why they have trouble with diplomacy with single minded creatures.
the words that the player is presented with when playing as them are just what those simple-minded individuals think that hives must use or that is easy for them to understand.
Just curious here but is it possible for a Machine Empire, hive mind, and regular empires to form a federation between each other?
I'm thinking that if that's possible then that's what Wiz needs to do in his stream in order to take down that Xenophobic Fallen Empire.
Also what happens if a non-Machine Empire defeats the Determined Exterminators? Can you spare the evil robots and just reprogram them or are you forced to dismantle them?
And I like that crab bot featured in the stream.
I also wonder what the shared destiny Ascension Perk does.

they've said it's possible, it's just really hard to overcome the natural dislike that exists between them, so you'd need to structure your entire game around doing it.
Every machine pop conquered by organic empire is automatically dismantled, although synthetic ascended empires can integratete the machines.
The machines in the machine consciousness empires don't have self awareness--only the central network do. There's nothing evil about a empty chassis. In the end, they are just machines after all.
Empires with God Emperors should use that. I mean, everything that happens under God Emperor K'reel is practically done by God Emperor K'reel (as far as the credit goes).
The extra influence is nice, especially considering they are missing factions. Unity also, though that is really very little per pop (like factor 3-6 less than what the real unity buildings do) .
The 20% is nice, but still not totally efficient:
Assume 10 pops do 10 minerals each -> 100 minerals.
Now let 6 pops to 12 minerals (20% bonus) each-> 72 minerals.
-> 72% efficiency ignoring other stuff. Let's add 10% due to the "free" unity (done by 40% of the pop but with only ~25% efficiency). Still very low.
Same holds for any other income and also any combination of resources.
It gets even worse if you additively include other boni, for example:
Every pop gets 20% extra due to traits:
10 pops do 12 minerals each -> 120 minerals.
6 pops to 14 minerals (20%+20% bonus) each-> 84 minerals.
-> 70% efficiency.
And that is despite ignoring the fact, that pampering has increased consumer goods per pop. On the other hand with the recent change you do save building costs. But those are one-time costs.
Can non-Servitor machine empires use displacement? If they can't, then Servitores are the only ones who could get away with conquest without triggering the rest of the galaxy.

Personal purge delivery is back on the menu. Only for slaves.

Manual purge/disassembly can be done in the following instances:
- You are a Hive Mind (to anyone)
- You are a Machine Intelligence (to any Drone pop)
- The species has the Slavery citizenship type
- The Pop is a Robot, Droid or Synth without citizenship rights
It cannot be done to any species that has any sort of basic rights. The rules for it are moddable though.

Finally! It has been nasty business to attempt to get rid of slaves you had too many of.
