More ways to spend meta resources
- Open

Leonardo Bencivenga |
Right now, when you complete the Tech tree, meta resources (Food/Machinery/Artifacts) have almost no uses, aside from the Forsaken Altar. However, this feature is not always available: you have to play in Prestige Difficulty, sometimes the offered cornerstones are not good enough to justify losing villagers, and you can't just mass spend those thousands of food stockpiled.
I would like extra ways to send meta resources on the world map, before an expedition, for example, spending 100 Food / 50 Machinery / 25 Artifacts => 1 extra Embark Point. Or rerolling the available caravans before an expedition, or revealing the seasonal effects (Storm/Drizzle effects) of the selected tile, or removing some of the negative ones. Or maybe adding a random positive one (it's boring to always play with 1 positive effect, I almost didn't remember that in lower difficulties there are 2/3 ). This could be useful in order to prepare to play a higher Prestige level.
Regards.

I think meta resources usage could pair well if the addiction of other feature that would be the cycle cornerstones to make every cycle diferent.
You could use the meta resources to reroll those cornerstones a the start of each cycle, or even pay to expand the map initial vision so you have higher chances of finding a modifier you like to play/challange yourself with.
Another option would be rerolling seasonal effects at the start of a map.

No, please don't do it! If anything, the impact of meta progression on single run is already quite big. Reddit user ForgottenArbiter phrased this well - It is very unsatisfying to make metaprogression slower, and so is free, unnecessary power to cheapen Prestige 20 runs once everything is unlocked.
Sure it would be good to have use for citadel resources once entire tree is unlocked, but it should remain on meta level. Extremely overpriced cosmetics, global leaderboards, use them to vote on implementation of new features, etc.
