About the Oracle...

[Erixperience]

So by now we've all had the "Hidden Worlds" archeology site pup up about a thousand times. You know the drill. Weird AI stuff that you can either scrap, assign as a governor, or use to get a flat +10% to all unity production.

But in updating to 3.8 and the paragon system, one of those is missing. The best one.

Paradox, where's my +10% Unity?

I don't see anything in the patch notes about removing it, just:

• Updated the Oracle with new visuals and effects to use the Paragon System.

Was this an intentional design choice, an oversight, or am I just blind?

Wasn't the oracle a computer? Am I remembering the event wrong?

In the event text, the Oracle AI presents itself as the hologram of a large arthropodal female in a robe. In previous versions this was just represented as the static "No Image" screen since there wasn't any dedicated art. With 3.8, they actually gave it a model matching the description.

I never had the event. So no. Haven't done it a thousand times. :-(

Thats odd, I get it in nearly every run. I actually thought it and the Sentinels were guaranteed to pop.

Finally, someone with worse luck than me!

I remember getting the Sentinels every single run back in 2.7/2.8, but I don't think I've seen once since 3.0.

I haven't seen the character in a few games. Does this character still exist or not?

Definitely still exists. I got her in my latest run on the wilderness beta branch.

I had already thought so, but then I must have been unlucky a few times that the Hidden Worlds archaeological site outcome hasn't appeared.

Any tips on how I can tell if the character might appear? Is it a specific planet type or something similar?

Thanks

Both Sentinels and Oracle only show up if you clear blockers.

Also... necro.
