So everyone likes to rant about indonesia
Whether its the leader/nation name being inaccurate ( i am american and have european ancestors so have no clue whether or not gajah mada is an accurate representation of that era in indonesias past.
Or their crazy UU that can get promotions which make it essentially worthless or super-powerful
Or their UB being confusing/not very useful
But the fact is, the UA they get is better than many for a simple reason. We love the king day.
Prior to indonesia, it was possible for a wide player to obtain a copy of every luxury on the map, throwing his empire into permanent "we love the king mode" always giving a (i want to say 10%) empire wide growth bonus.
As Gajah, once you found that city on another continent with your unique resource, the other civs cities suddenly become aware of its existence and start desiring it. While it makes sense to trade this stuff away as gajah, you could just keep it all to yourself thereby preventing any city from another civ which desires one of the three from entering we love the king day.
In my mind, this is a very powerful bonus. You are wholesale denying a 10% growth bonus to every city on the map but your own. No other civ has a power which can essentially slow population growth in enemy cities where it would otherwise accelerate.
Do you think the game designers intended on the unique luxuries being wanted by other civs cities, or do you think it was an oversight that will be patched?
