Is cdkeys.com a grey market site or a legitimate distributor?

[@RepublicOfPlay]

If cdkeys ever get caught doing anything shady, I'll stop promoting them. Simple as that. Until then, I've no reason to believe they're doing anything bad, as they've been around for 5 years and haven't had any issues brought before them, unlike G2A, Kinguin, etc. I worked for a AAA company, I asked our legal team to look into them, they didn't find anything. How do they do it? I don't know. Popular theories are they buy in bulk from eastern countires cheap, open the boxes and sell the keys. Another is that they sell large ad campaigns to offset the cost of the games to drive traffic to their site. Either way, I don't care until I hear how it's actually hurt a developer or anyone.

[@RepublicOfPlay]

Grey market, they're the equivalent of buying from someone selling on ebay essentially. Unlike G2A or other sites, they distribute their own keys though, not other peoples. You can even refund them.

[@ElectariumTunic]

The fact that they can sell games at 75-83% a permanent(?) discount is a sign that they are doing something shady. Also, calling them "grey market" is a sure sign they are not legit.

Thanks Darren

[@jacoaucamp2155]

Im so noob, where can i find these mods?

[@marconarvaez9871]

@@jacoaucamp2155 If you bought the game through steam, you can get them in the steam workshop (enter steam, then go to the community tab, and search for workshop. Once you're there, search for stellaris)

[@CybranM]

Some great production value on these new videos, well done :D

[@DudokX]

Whoa, literally today I was searching the workshop for some graphic mods that are compatible with Alphamod. Great timing!

[@ki4345]

You really should do more of these mods lists! And for other paradox games as well -the modding community is huge and mod lists are fun to just watch through and try a random mod that you probably wouldn't have tried otherwise!! p.s. Great content as always!!

[@custossecretus5737]

OMG subscribed, thought I would have to wait until Christmas to buy this game on offer, you have made a very difficult time in my life much more bearable. Thank You.

[@Plerion]

In the UI category I would like to add/suggest: UI Overhaul 1080p Plus, Mett's Expanded Top Bar, Flat Nameplates, Cleaner System UI, Cleaner Galaxy UI, and definitely, Colored Map Icons. The first two (and the last one) are essential to me. Anyways: great content, and amazing production value!

[@RepublicOfPlay]

Ah I personally don’t like the UI overhaul when I tried it, havent seen the top bar one though, will have to look that up!

[@lovinglife8988]

Nicly done, always great to see mod lists that is tested and working well. Please make more mod lists and mod showcases.

[@50shadesofskittles9]

About to buy this game today. REALLY appreciate this list man! Also, you have a new sub! :-D

[@C05597641]

Star types and hyper lane choke points should have been the way they created choke points. Not just hyper lanes. It would have added strategy to ship design. For example spending more on your ship design so they can drop sheilding and divert power to weapons so that a star that eliminates shields becomes a choke point.

[@theodore-jef5664]

I've been playing Stellaris on Xbox One and I would love to have some of these mods implemented.

Awesome, a well-structured and great list! Are you going to review the Vampire coast by any chance? I'll buy it anyways but I always like seeing your opinion on the product

Yep! I get it the same time as everyone else, so I’ll probably be a week late with it

[@VitaminMaxer187]

RepbulicOfPlay you should check out Beautiful Universe v2.0. The mod changes the vanilla galaxy skyboxes and adds in NASA Photos, Eve Online skyboxes, and various digital art.

[@PikaGUSTA]

What are your thoughts on the GIGA engineering mod? (That is if you haven’t done a video on that already) ;)

[@StarboyXL9]

The "Realspace" series is literally too real for my taste. Stellaris has always had a slightly "comic book" feel to it, so Realspace throws off my normal RP vibe.

[@GUN1GRAVE]

good video. gives me a reason to go back to stellaris for another playthrough.

[@Logan-qj4rg]

Would love to see you do a video on more detailed ship design and combat planning. The ship designer is more tricky than I intended and I have a hard time figuring out how to counter certain enemies unless I've already lost a battle.

[@RepublicOfPlay]

I’m a bit of a weird player in that I don’t really enjoy stats or stuff like that. I just never look at it personally, and always play “immersively” I guess, where I try make a relatively informed decision and hope for the best! here’s a link to the stellaris wiki which breaks down all the types of weaponry and ship classes, which may help you figure out whats going wrong! stellaris.paradoxwikis.com/Space_warfare stellaris.paradoxwikis.com/Weapon_components

[@Logan-qj4rg]

Thanks for the reply

[@BlueHawkPictures17]

The problem with planet diversity is that it makes your ideal worlds less likely to appear due to the addition of additional planets types. Which is a huge gameplay malus. Sure ×2 habitable chances can help but then you add more planets and that again can fundamentally change the game.

[@dannii_L]

While the size and distance of those external galaxies might feel a little off, their rotational velocities are just a whole other dimensional order of magnitude off. Or maybe not. After all, with galaxies roaming around in such close proximity, perhaps it isn't so implausible that each one contains a supermassive black hole with billions of Galactic masses in the centre, preventing them from flying apart.

[@knochey2296]

My first video from your channel an I instantly subscribed. Please do more Mod Lists for Stellaris. Maybe some for gameplay broken down to groups like science, battles, ships, ai etc.? :)

[@RepublicOfPlay]

Thanks! Waiting for the big update before I do! If you’re new to my channel, consider checking out my ipdate summary recap, I guarantee you’ll enjoy it :) GUARANTEE.

[@TheNetherlandDwarf]

thanks for the suggestions! I've been putting so many gameplay mods into my game its becoming a mess, want to reset and start again with some visual stuff (and maybe giga megastructures!)

[@thibautnoah2599]

Thank you, gonna get some mods and jump back into the game, been hitching to do that for a while :D A bit sad that the real space for the stars is not compatible with achievements :'(

[@starsilverinfinity]

The best part about most of these is the fact that they can be used in multiplayer without requiring everyone else to do the same!

[@perahoky]

5:20 lol i can see straight through the black hole

[@123456gordon]

Ah! was just wondering about mods myself since the new update I'll have to start a new playthrough from scratch as per usual, may as well check for new mods... So this comes in handy.

[@abcdefghij7772]

A lot of these need to be in vanilla!! These planets look beautiful

[@bingusgaming8844]

My Top bar isnt accefted by the Dark UI and just stays green. any fixes?

Hay, i am having a a problem with my 4k screen, it makes the display REALLY small, i did not find any fix other then telling the game to work on 1090p...HELP🙏🏻

yea i tried using these and my game always crashes so i would love some advice or help

Yes, should be out this week! Our last game has been crazy!

When 2.2 comes out I’ll probably use this list and do a mini series lets play

[@Gamerpower]

Hype :)

[@gamersareawesome5904]

Amazing video bro

[@wertyline806]

Great collection.

[@jasonh3111]

You didn't mention the planetary diversity add-ons which add different look variations to habitable worlds so there less chance they they all look alike

[@bdunin]

Nice, will You make one for the 2.2 update?

[@PedroHawk1]

They all look awesome. Goona try some.

[@Kristaliorn]

This Video is really really well presented! Cheers! P.S do you think this all still works? Do you still use them?

[@user-oy2qt8mq7f]

How do you move camera as in 4:06?

[@UglyJaguar]

Do you think these mods will be available for the console version?

[@TheCreedEvolution]

Nice list. But instead of the Dark UI I prefer the Cyan UI, and a mod which makes the UI flat

[@localman9063]

Vanilla game already lags like hell on my potato, now imagine installing a graphics mod. Lol

[@hsaurma]

Maybe you can help...did there exist a mod which allow the planets real orbiting around there sun ?

[@RepublicOfPlay]

Don't think so, I've often wanted to see that too

Two mods I would recommend the first elves of stellaris if anything just do it for the ships there fantastic. Second check out new ship classes it’s for people who want to have massive epic fleet battles.

[@RepublicOfPlay]

Yeah I also tried some ascension perks/mega weapons/traditions and other late game stuff recently. Really cool, but gonna wait for 2.2 before covering them!

[@AethyrPrime]

Updated list for 2.2.2?

[@Demiurge13]

these are mostly all graphics mods, they don't change anything gameplay related so dont worry

WaHoooooooo

[@fc-xw9qr]

Hey, im thinking about buying this... Looks FUCKING epic! Would it be possible to create an insect race eating other species? Just asking.. 😂

[@RepublicOfPlay]

Mmmmmm kind of, with the DLC “Utopia” you can create a hive mind race, and I think they can feed on bio pops by killing them and turning them into food. I’m pretty sure anyway. If not, you can always just not get any DLC, create an insect race, purge other species and just pretend your eating them as they die :P

[@wilsthelimit]

So I can have my Time Lord Empire?

[@avantigaming1627]

The majority of them are not updated..

[@RyanMTube]

FML, just paid for this game and watch this with 70% off :(

[@BlueZeroZeroOne]

Sadly, th color adding mods are pointless as when you save your game, there is like 90% chance when you load it again your flag and colors will have changed at random due to a bug in the game that's been around for a long time.

[@RepublicOfPlay]

Oh really? I played a campaign with them and didnt have any issues personally, but only loaded about 5 times total I guess

[@RepublicOfPlay]

Do you know if it's just the colour pack or is it the flags or emblems?

[@gabemerritt3139]

Dark ui alone is so much cleaner

[@agnotwot7997]

Well one of these mods kills achievements.
