[@xanthpuns]

Here's the deal with all of those fleets in the same system the unbidden can't choose only your ships to kill. So while they can one shot a ship your allied fleet's give you ironically ablative armor since because of there size they soak up more of the shots sent from the unbidden. And since you hard counter them you take out there ships almost as fast as they kill yours

[@dracish123456789]

fun fact if two players have the opposing origins they get story elements with each other

[@catcentrum]

What kinds of?

[@brianjentzen2335]

@@catcentrum I think the same species (down to traits, name, and portrait) will work for lost colony. Maybe being a megacorp could work for these new origins but I would doubt it due to the fact they have to have contact with quite a few pre-ftl civilizations. The thing I think is funny that used to be possible, and I think it still is, is multiple civilizations as identical but different origins/ethics (so long as they don't add traits and have the same planet class) would let you modify between the different civilizations. Though, knowing how heavy I used to mod, I might have just broke something back then.

[@Talon1124]

Stellaris is indeed a series I wish to see continued in the future.

[@benjamminraps1030]

This long form content, Stellaris in general and Future Lathrixx in particular (Present Lathrixx is a bit of crusty badger) are things I want to algorithmically see in my KZbins

[@WisdomOfWombats-xr3zj]

This is probably my favorite Stellaris playthrough of yours. It was very engaging to see a true unification of the galaxy. Thank you for such enjoyable content!

[@matthewhawkins3697]

This was such a cool empire to watch! Lathrix, would you ever consider doing a series or megavideo showing an entire playthrough? It'd be really interesting and helpful to see how you manage your empires - I'm never able to get even close to as powerful as you in my games, and I'm sure I'd learn a ton watching you!

[@KodeeDentares]

Absolutely this! Even if you did like your "alter-ego" Aavak (😄) and had a separate channel you posted long, LONG form content on (mostly) unedited. You should know by now, Lathrix, that we see your vocal trip-ups as charming rather than a deterrent, so you wouldn't have to worry about having to edit them down if you were willing to do this.

[@matthewhawkins3697]

@@KodeeDentares Couldn't agree more! This channel or a separate one, it would be so cool to see the entirety of the gameplay. I imagine that might be a bit easier to edit, too ;)

You are one of the only people I do everything I can to support the videos. I love Stellaris wholly and the way you play, and Stellaris is something we all want to see continued on the channel for ages to come.

[@cantstopthepun]

Man that start IS perfect for a fallen empire rp. I truly wish stellaris had "seeds" to have the same start but with different civics and stuff. I know you can share saves but it ain't the same lol

[@rykertrujillo9733]

I'm pretty sure there are "system" mods that add new custom starting systems and locations around them so theyd maybe sorta work? But yeah seeds would be cooler and probably easier lol

[@mortache]

Civics are easy to swap, origins however...

[@royalbluegaming7763]

It'd also be great for world building if you can change the specific spawn circumstances of AI(fallen empire, advanced start, etc.). I think in generalz Stellaris needs a change to World Generation and how we affect it

[@Maadhawk]

I saw Montu's "No fleet, station only" run not too long ago. But, I think the nastiest bastion fortresses are the ones belonging to psionic empires with the Zroni chain and archeo-ascension as well. Picture this, a Citadel fortress, 6 Ancient Rampart modules granting a total of +90% station hull, +120% armor and +60% armor hardening; then for the buildings it has a Target Uplink Computer for +50% weapons range, Defense-Grid Supercomputer for platform cap, a Zroni Storm Caster for our pocket neutron star (which is buffed by Archeostudies Ascension Perk to deal 10% hull damage PER DAY a hostile fleet is in system), and a Communications Jammer to further hamper enemy fleets by slowing them down and making it harder for them to escape when they realize they have walked into a death system. Then, for the platforms, with the Unyielding Traditions tree and a Strategic Coordination Center, 78 defense platforms. First is an ion cannon with a whopping 375 range to "caress" the enemy lovingly and let the other platforms know to wake up. The remaining 70 platforms are all hanger platforms acting as home base to endless squadrons of Ancient Driller Drones. Their homes are all armored with level 5 armor, nanite repair system (I had scrapbot in my game), and a reactive armor module for armor hardening. Each of these Ancient Driller Drones do -25% damage to shield, but +100% armor penetration and have +25% hull damage. Thanks to the Zroni Storm Caster nullifying shields and doing hull damage, the ion cannon sounding the alarm all the way to the system edge, the first thing an enemy fleet will encounter, long before they get in range to fire back, will be swarms of drone fighters bypassing their armor and doing bonus damage to their hull for a cumulative damage greater than tier 3 fighters.

[@TheArklyte]

While the climax with AI fleets arriving and for once being useful(apparently if you control the whole galaxy, have maxed out federation, are a custodian and evey member of community is your scholarium, whom pays you nothing back, AI can finally keep up😂. I wonder what would have been achieved if it was a different federation type then?) was cool and all, it's early game that looked awesome. For once the tiny sci-fi blocks of Stellaris fully assembled into a space opera about slaves crash landing on a planet, by chance finding a trail of a precursor civilization that gave them a chance to establish themselves, making a few friends along the way and then finally leading a rebellion against their former masters and finally finding their home planet. Yep, we've basically just watched Homeworld. No idea if these origins would become stale to me after a while, but I like them from RP PoV.

at 1:30:00 when you were looking at the ship design of the federation, there's what I think is a bug that everyone in the federation can make their own ship designs and build that ship, instead of only the president, which I find it really weird, when I was playing I eventually chose to only make the president (me) be able to build ships because it was getting ridiculous the fleet with so many garbage ships

I do love being the criminal heritage megacorp, but I really don't like how they're locked out of Hostile Takeover casus bellis while the normal not criminal violence method megacorp can use war and violence to steal another Empires property... seems a bit backwards.

[@LuizAlexPhoenix]

I am about to watch it but as a fanatic egalitarian you can make everyone your vassals, then use the galactic resolutions so your vassals have something like 75% attraction to it. Plus, if you pass the worker rights resolutions, everyone will be forced to live under utopian abundance. Combined with the relay network and overlord holdings, it's quite neat. It means pretty much no conflicting ethics, so plus opinion and loyalty.

[@IapitusMcHeimer]

I recommend you try a megacorp with private prospectors and broken shackles if you want to revisit this origin. I have had upwards of 10 planets in the first ~30 years, due to having the numerous species. Trade is also one of the few things that isn't hurt by the starting debuffs. It plays more towards the strengths of the origin. You can also start pacifist then easily transition into xenophile if you want to switch off liberation wars. There is also a delicious irony of rising up against an evil megacorp as a nominally more friendly megacorp

[@mattlewin72]

There are quite a few good Stellaris streamers on KZbin, but you are by far the most interesting. Your love for the game comes through so clearly. Thank you for producing this great content.

[@Midnight-wh2bs]

1:27:25 Just because the game says "weak support" doesn't necessarily mean that the empires who don't support it are opposed to it. Every empire you hovered over were only in abstain range, not opposition range, so while they didn't support the proposal their opinion of you was high enough for them to not vote against it.

[@Leader1623]

I really like these single playthrough videos. Much more palatable than the massive long series you find elsewhere.

I honestly don't know if people hate criminal heritage because it isn't meta or because it's just annoying to deal with. Also I adore how broken shackles and payback are actually different, I thought they were the same but only one has multiple species. Nice to see there's different events and all that.

I haven't finished the video yet, but I got to the part where you chose politics and I have to say a discovery I made while playing, politics is utterly broken, for example if you're in the council and you get the veto power, well, did you know that every police you veto counts towards the +25% weight you gain for your resolutions not going to a vote? yeah... and they also stack! Also with the new laws you get you can basically make laws as punitive as possible for everyone else while giving yourself a free pass at everything! man I really love it
