Imagine being in multiplayer having stephan as your overlord and thinking of gaining indepenence....

[@wizard380]

he's a good player but what if I told you there are some players even better out there ? :)

[@CarlosDo.]

@@wizard380 Like who? I want to see more good players

[@taxevasion4736]

It seems like it would be better to prolong the Vassal relationship in order to take advantage of your ridiculously cheap defense platforms to guard yourself both against your Overlord and against your neighbors before declaring independence.

[@philm94]

It is, by a long way. I don't know why you'd take this origin to just cheese out of it in 2 years. Being a bullwark can make you an early game powerhouse. Your starbases are insurmountable and you can rush people with destroyers whilst they have weak picket corvettes.

[@adudeontheinternet8246]

I did imperial fief for my most recent run. I think my biggest issue wasn't as much the overlord as much as it was being boxed in by a much larger empire who hated my guts. When my overlord collapsed, I got their vassals, and funnily enough my now former overlord actually won the rebellion! Instead of annexing all the rebels, they chose to vassalize them instead, and once I capitalized on one of the newer vassal's independence war I managed to get all but 2 of the rebel states as vassals. My relations with my former overlord was good enough to be able to vassalize them after the war, which let me get the 2nd last vassal who was loyal to them, and the last one which was independent... Wasn't, for very long

[@leonardoalfonso7080]

Empires can implode now? Is that a new situation, or is it just something that the Advanced AI will do if you pick the Vassal Origin?

[@EricTheRedWiseman]

Doomsday Origin also implodes as well for obvious reasons

[@JJmastah]

Stellaris is getting more and more EU4-y every day.

[@Kasaaz]

@@JJmastah My brain is too rotted by EU4. The war goals and points and just the way wars resolve will forever seem incomprehensible to me in Stellaris. So this appeals to me.

[@pabilbadoespecial]

I've seen other videos where the advanced ai implodes, I'm also wondering if it's guaranteed or not

[@jarrado1]

love you Stefan! Great work as always!

FREEEEEEDOM!!!

[@bkane573]

I never got recommended this video. Saw the 2nd one today.

[@Raycheetah]

This origin appears to have a baked-in time limit, with the Overlord breaking up after a while. What if, for reasons of your own, you want to remain a vassal? Or if you simply want to take your time rebelling? Lost potential, it seems. ='[.]'=

[@Lildizzle420]

im so confused i must be really bad at this game because that's not how i play i built a fleet and fought off the empire and didn't let him bomb my home planet and then i got a vassal.

[@rwp0079]

So other videos I've seen of this origin seem to imply that after a set amount of time, your overlord just seems to collapse anyway. Dunno if this is set to happen after a certain amount of time or is pure RNG.

[@pabilbadoespecial]

Yes that's what I'm wondering!

[@1Bock]

As soon as the leader dies it´s a civil war that frees you anyway. Also why would you want to be free anyway ? (at least until midgame)

[@hespaccps4702]

Beside this is a funny thing I dont get it what the advantages are of doing this or is it just challengewise as an doomsday alternative?

[@bahemutking12]

Your the best Bro!!!!

[@marcustulliuscicero5443]

Destroyers: The ship type so bad that even ones freely given out are better as salvage.

[@bkane573]

I know this is sponsored by the dev team, but trying to sell armies as useful is a bridge to far man. J/K

[@Ollie_Taylorr]

Is it just me or does the audio not work on the upload?

[@Doubleagentaron]

The ethics, civics and name of your overlord empire look busted

[@mytiliss682]

But can it be viable with particular build like doomsday?

[@Magmakojote]

Can't choose multiple origins

[@mytiliss682]

@@Magmakojote I mean doomsday kinda good if you focus around leeching as much as possible from your homeworld to give you a headstart. So it may be the case here, thought you have to be subordinate quite long time.

[@AgainPsychoX]

Can you clarify, do you get sponsored by Stellaris to find such cheesy exploits or to introduce players to new mechanics? Is there even point going such build in the first place apart from getting achievement?

Very Strong isn't a lie, don't tell me how to build my combat focused races like orcs or zeranids my orcs start with it because they are just that awesome, my zeranids are given it later because it helps snowballing

What a bizarrely confrontational comment. Nobody's forcing you to drop your sub-par traits lol.

It's only good for throwing on the species template for your Fortress World subspecies set to Battle Thralls. Bio Ascension coming in handy again.

Costs too many points.
