Stellaris

Do you like EU4 and Ck2?!? No? Well then stop reading



If your yalk and the only one that plays those games for the past 2.5 years alone you'll be excited to note that this is basically eu4/ck2 in space! Combining pdx grand strategy and 4x but avoiding some of the worn out tropes that are rotting out Sid miers games currently


I am excite, I knew about this when it was announced like 2 months ago but figured no one cared, but, eh was in the mood to post stuff




Just google Stellaris and you'll get stuff, the Paradox site is a good place to snoop around if your interested

"SORRY, I couldn't hear you over the sound of my tits! what were you saying?"

Looks pretty amazing.

Well, I generally regard Paradox as a solid dev.
Will be watching.
Also, I'm all about dat space 4x so don't even even.

IIRC Paradox is a publisher. As for solidity, I point to Sword of the start II.

IIRC Paradox is a developer publisher studio


(They do both)

I have this now. Seems legit. 3 hours went by in a flurry.

Purge the unclean.

I am. It's taking so long though. I can probably turn up the game speed at this point.

-I would if I could, but I can't so I won't.

This awakes fond memories in me of Master of Orion 2. I saw a video about it after reading this tread. Choosing your own faster than light drive at game start, forming alliances and Federations, this all sounds promising. Mayby it's time for some 4x after The Witcher III.

Yep. Things take time though. I'm about 6 hrs in now I think, and I have the game running constantly at "fastest" speed. Intergrating another faction into my empire takes like 250 months!

But I really like the systems for how the influence resource works. It's not just for people going for a peacfull/pacifist playstyle.
Not so sure about sectors though. Seems they have issues managing the planets, but that might be user error. :p They're super important for spreading your control though. I've yet to find research or buildings that gives me the ability to directly control more than five planets.

Good game. One warning: put a clock on your desk when you play it.

Looks nice indeed. One major problem with Master of Orion was too slow end game. Combat system is way faster in this but it also feels less personal. Real time aspect is kind of an illusion with buildings and bonuses being still completed/calculated/updated monthly.

Some advanced goverment types give more core planets.

Aah, I have researched something that gave me access to other government types, but did it for the Influence bonus. Haven't actually looked at changing my type.

Random thoughts:

1. Great game due to the fact it's a continuous time 4x, giving it the ability to be played solo, small multi game or large gigantic game with tons of players and have the game last days or hours depending on maps settings...and if you have bane researching synthetic the game ends even faster!

2. Purge, resettle and enslave...

3. Build entertainment center > open migration with neighbor > ENSLAVE THOSE FOOLISH XENO's THAT COME WILLINGLY....profit

4. Unhappy sector? Divide up differently to marginalize the unhappy, purge random blocks to encourage productivity in the others

5. Neighbor is for all intents and purposes is identical to your glorious human faction, but, has the picture of a slug instead of glorious human....purged

6. Uplift pre-sentient race into gene bread clone Psionic cybernetic augmented super shock troops to do your bidding

7. Hunter killer assassin droids (KoToR)

8. Giant xeno mounts (see 6)

9. Psionic......Jedi

10. Enslaving all the cards of your own species that meet certain criteria...for maximum RP

Manage sectors through macro not micro....your core planets you micro


Macro your sectors, set to maximum output, give them creds/minerals, then set desired specialization....add remove planets according to what you want (energy, science, minerals) ....I've also found that telling them they can redo blocks helps, then don't worry about them

What? No? If murca collapses, the world collapses. World economy is too closely linked.

Well I hope you're ready to accept the next wave of immigrants then : ^ )

People don't immigrate to Norway, or the rest of Scandinavia.....they might have been taken there forcibly at one time, but never willingly

But then the Queen of England's secret Jew lizard empire will show their true selves and unleash the plan to conquer the world.. after all Queen Elizabeth is a secret lizard after all how else do you think she gained her immortality.
