Yeah I remembered why the riftborn were my favorite now: being able to colonize lava planets without getting growth or happyness penalties is so strong and you save so much industry, dust and science by not worrying about food, who cares about growing minor pops when your main pop is so strong and can can be built with all that industry you save? 0 drawbacks besides maybe some manpower issues.

Which faction is your favorite gameplay-wise?
