Overview

Amenities and Loyalty can sometimes seem meaningless: it’s not hard to keep your people happy and loyal, and if you don’t, the consequences aren’t really bad. Happiness and Loyalty Deflation makes a few changes to Happiness and Loyalty to make them more challenging and meaningful to manage.

Overall:
– Religion and negative Amenities now have a greater impact on Loyalty.
– The threshold for negative Happiness levels has been increased, meaning worse Happiness levels occur earlier.

Part of the Civilizations Expanded mod collection.

NOTE: While this mod is intended to be used with Civilizations Expanded, it can be used standalone with no problems.
