Let us control which races/cultures/factions can spawn as neutrals/city-states

As in the title.
Imo, the last needed significant puzzle for world creation beyond "underground only" and massive features like world editor. I want to create worlds inhabited by humans and elves where nobles of both races eternally clash with each other, I want to create orc invasion scenarios, dwarven empires struggling against an eldritch infestation of bugmen etc. etc. without random appearance of molemen angels

Couldn't agree more. For a game that loves to showcase how you can personalize it for yourself, this seems like an oversight.

 

[Skyling]

Strong agree

 

[Orphalesion]

Yes, this should be an option. I love almost all of the forms. But sometimes I want a specific vibe for a game and not all of them might fit.

 

[ProphetOfDune]

Yes, please. 'Croaking Crusaders' and 'Fluffy Artisans' and the like may fit some worlds, but they really don't fit others.

This is the thing keeping me from playing anymore or buying DLCs. It's weird because at launch I was a big supporter of this game. But for some reason, this is like that grain of sand in your shoe. Every time I played it bothered me a little more, and a little more. Interesting fact: modding tools don't even allow you to change them. I come back to the forums occasionally to generally follow the cool ideas in the DLCs, but more importantly to see if they added this feature.

Wholeheartedly agree, sick of seeing all manner of anthropomorphic animals in every game and the problem has become worse and will keep becoming worse with the release of every new dlc.

Another similar function I would like to see is globally disabling the visuals of race transformations, so even AI factions of humans and elves stop becoming apes by choosing the animal kinship.

Yes. Or just a way to create tome paths for your factions (like personalities just for when they are picked as AI rulers of course). So you would have way more control about what they become. So my demon orcs not always turn into tiny little hooved boys or my wizard faction stops evolving into jellyfish.

But back to topic. Yes to everything the author of this post said.
