I Turned EVERY world into a TOMB and now Question My Sanity | Full Playthrough | Stellaris Gameplay

[@Lathland]

Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay in videos lately, moving house due to an unforeseen change in circumstances and that has been eating the bulk of time! I also will blame this for the editing mistake at 30:34ish in which I put some clips in the wrong order, likely other mistakes throughout too that I simply didn't notice yet! But isn't that what makes It a charming Lathrix video anyway? This video was easily one of the most time consuming playthroughs on the channel to date due to just how many worlds there are capable of being terraformed in Stellaris in one way or another, along with the AI changes making the AI far more formidable with the new tech buffs and mid game scaling! Was super fun to record this one, I really hope you all enjoy! :D

"Pure bliss. Absolute harmony. Perfected beauty. Do you hear the silence? That is the sound of beauty." As my father spoke those words to me, I very well heard the grumbling of the excavators in the mines kilometers below us, the faint noise of the industrial complex at the horizon and the roaring of the freighters at the spaceport where we landed earlier. But I know what he meant. No organic matter soiled the ground we stood upon. In fact no soil tainted and hid the intricate rock of this now liberated world. This planet was the last one to complete its terraforming process in the galaxy. Clearing the biological trash which infested the world for aeons returned the world to its pure and original state. The fresh radiation did wonders to my father's deteriorating health. After a lifetime in the navy he himself saw the end of many intragalactic and even intergalactic threats to our empire's dream. The monumental task which our forefathers started was finally completed by his and my generations. The sound of a starting freighter interrupted my thoughts. It shipped the last remnants of the biological parasites to processing and remineralization. Was it possible that biological 'life' could emerge anew somewhere, somewhen and threaten our peace? My gaze wandered across the landscape and my mind was put to ease. The geometric shapes and colours of the minerals surrounding us were of a beauty not replicable by the most talented artists. Future generations won't understand the struggle we went through to cleanse and restore the roc*ing entirety of the galaxy. They won't have to experience the filth and corruption that surrounded us most of our lifetime. "And that's a good thing." I didn't immediately realize that I spoke those words out aloud. But looking at my father I could tell that he knew exactly what was going on in my mind. "And that's a good thing", he repeated before he started moving again, implying that we should continue our journey through this new old landscape. Which was now finally again what it always should have been. Pure, beautiful and silent.

31:30 Yeah that happens because the Parades will chose the planet with the most population that doesn't already have a leviathan trophy on it. FOOD had like 1/4 of your entire empire's population on it as I believe the game doesn't take population status into account when making that decision.

Didn't even think about the combination of ruthless industrialist and the tomb world origin!

Hey Lath, just popping up with this: you are my favorite Stellaris gameplay content creator. Eventhough im not up to your level(grand admiral), me and my brother can watch you over and over and never get bored. We even put your species build on our games just to see what the AI does with it 😂. Much love from Puerto Rico, youre awesome.

[@nighthawk7485]

I'm going to be honest, if I had the patience to make it to this point in the playthrough, I would have just continued until every system also had a hyper relay, but I understand wanting to be done when the primary goal of the playthrough had been accomplished.

[@Rymer101]

I’m so happy to see a Stellaris full play through again! Love these. They help me get through the work day!

[@gemstealer]

58:57 in and im seeing the Stellar Devourer, I just gotta say that it doesn't pick capital planets, only the "highest" pop planet in the whole empire. There are a few more parameters for which planet it picks but I just don't remember them off the top of my head. (Anyone who knows them all please reply with em)

1:06:30 I've also had the system with the planet made of dead Tiyanki in my current playthrough. Managed to lure the defending Tiyanki away from the planet and crack it open. Unfortunately, was unable to keep the thing inside alive. Don't know whether it is because I was playing with all DLCs disabled or for some other reason.

[@TheLonelyBrit]

I haven't watched one of these in a while. These videos are very good to put on while I fall asleep, then watching through again when I wake up.

[@arveshi342]

I absolutely love this idea. I thought you'd be using some sort of mod, but nope, your solution was even more brilliant.

[@AdmiralKnight]

Another awesome Stellaris video! Quick tip for anyone quickly expanding like Lath did in this video be very careful queuing up Starbase constructions. The influence penalty for skipping systems does not recalculate after the first base is built. For instance at 12:20 he queues up three systems to build, the first one costing 52, the second 105, the third 157. You would assume that once the first system was build the second system would go back down to costing 52 but it does NOT. I'm assuming it's a bug. Those 3 systems ended up costing 314 influence when they would have only cost 156 if they weren't queued.

[@nagirok1]

Yay an other full playthrough, Glad to see them! Thanks for the video Lath!!!! Don't worry if the schedul is messed up, we will wait!

Hey, if you havent already found out. The events like the stellar devourer always go to your most populous planet with the exception that there has been a parade in the last 50 years. If so the parade will take place on the next most populated planet. Thats why it was always Food for you

[@kerryforyeshua7453]

I have an idea for an endgame crisis, someone tell me if it’s good or bad. A very old empire that realized that an isolated empire on any scale, waits for its destruction from unseen places. So they focused all of their capacity building a single super ship that is capable of conquering galaxy after galaxy by its self. Their goal is to conquer the universe, creating a sensory array of every solar system. After every corner is conquered and watched, they will finally settle down. The mechanics would be. They have one ship, they get stronger with every solar system they control. As they get stronger, they can use the environment of their territory to attack and slow you down. They possess matter and energy manipulation tech, like wormhole propelled cannons and solar absorbing energy weapons. They spawn if an empire is unusually strong in fleet power by the end game. So you will have to focus more on star bases and other defensive strategies if you don’t want them to spawn.
