(2-VT) Reduce Historic Event Tourism

[CrazyG]

Currently historic events give too much tourism. It's set to 1/3 culture + tourism.

I propose they just give 1/2 tourism, no culture component.

I'm going to argue against this the same way I argued against PDAn, we are jumping the gun. We really should try some actual analysis on CV tourism to really get to the heart of the problem, instead of speculating. If it turns out to be HE is the problem, than yeah lets nerf it. But if its not, we are just spinning our wheels with a bad solution.

That's fair, I'm just putting the idea out there for discussion.

In the case of HEs, there is nothing but raw math and very little in the way of player agency or 'mouthfeel' to mediate the cold hard numbers of this sort of change. Whereas I doubt the ability of logging to predict what a good change would be to buildings, this is the kind of proposal that is perfect for the kind of data logs can produce.

My gut reaction is the numbers you proposed are a huge swing in the other direction.

To quote someone who knows this game well, "On this, I disagree that we need to be timid".

At minimum, You will probably need some minimum amount or the HEs might not work properly in parts of the early game where you have no tourism.

If you build stonehenge to trigger a historic event while at less than 3 culture and 0 tourism, you'll just get a historic event for 0 tourism. Nothing crashes.

Proposal vetoed.

Reason: Incorrect premise - amounts of Tourism differ based on event trigger. Insufficient information for voters to make an informed decision - formula should be included if you're proposing changes to it. I will allow this to be resubmitted during the Counterproposal Phase if the formula is included.
