Stellaris - Paradox new sci-fi grand strategy game

[Goliath]

For sure.. That is one of the least convincing lies I have ever heard.

I mean, of course, if you don't have a name for your game yet you put the name of another game in there. Every developer does that!

Hmm this is so far from the Paradox I knew. I guess they are suffering from EA syndrome. Well all good things must come to an end.

3 reason I can come up with what brought this change:

1. New CEO, coming from UNIBET where she had the position of "commercial chief" whatever that means, but I guess it has to do with money and profit
2. Publicly traded now.
3. Tencent owns 5% of the company.

This has happened before.

- Chinese company steals all your game's assets to make a mobile shitheap.
- Can't go after them because lol china
- Same Chinese company offers to release their game in the west so at least you can make some money off it in royalties
- Whoa, looks like we stole shit from other games too, what a surprise.

Speculation is that this is what happened with Diablo Immortal.

This whole debacle is far more entertaining than anything that Paradox has produced in recent memory.

And it is DLC-free!

You must have been living in a desert cave for the past 7 years. Welcome back to the temporal world, you'll find it... very different in here.

More exciting than watching the map paint dry (and waiting for your fuhrer mana to refill), definitely.

My only hope now is that they'll get so embarrassed by that shit that they'll actually get a good DLC out for diplomacy etc.
:Fabulously optimistic:

I for one hope the drama doesn't stop and we get some FLC for the ride.

 

[Fedora Master]

Hahahaha! It's a MMO!!!

It sounds like one of those cancerous late 90s browser games.

Paradox' social credit score just took a nosedive.

[Lord Commissar Alexer]

So...how are the mictro-transactions? 4,99€ for a 10K Fleet? 15€ for extra minerals or a powerful leader?

 

[Goliath]

Next Stellaris ShekelLC will be called Federations and will be diplomacy focused.

Well, it is plain impossible to make the federation system worse than it currently is so incline I guess.

A few more points in China and they're getting fuckin' arrested. Yay for technology.

By far the most needed change.

Info about dlc in RPS

Info I gathered:

- Will expand diplomacy with some sort of diplomacy resource available
- New types of Federations etc
- A new "Galactic UN" sort of thing
- New origins for empires

>Expanded Federations: With expanded diplomacy capabilities, players can build up the internal cohesion of their Federations and unlock powerful rewards for all members. Whether you join a Trade League, Martial Alliance, or Hegemony, membership can be extremely advantageous.


>Galactic Community: Unite the space empires with a galactic senate that can vote on a wide range of resolutions to drive legislative agendas. For example, players can pass a resolution to increase commitments to collective defense or funnel profit towards wealthy elites. Members can also sanction those who defy the community, and enact a single galactic focus. Sway the senate to position yourself as a leader, trading favors and maneuvering, doing whatever it takes to gain influence among schemers.


>Origins: Each empire has a story that shapes its path. Give your civilization deeper roots with the new system of Origins. By choosing an Origin, players can flesh out their empire’s background and alter its starting conditions. Whether it’s Void Dwellers who have abandoned their homeworld to live in perpetual orbit, or a society that worships and protects a powerful Tree of Life, you can lay the groundwork wisely for the seeds of your empire.

>New constructions: Construct glorious new projects for your empire like the Juggernaut, a massive mobile starbase that provides a moveable repair base even in enemy territory, or the Mega Shipyard, a new megastructure that can churn out fleets with incredible speed. Offering both tactical advantages and a good dose of shock and/or awe, these are sure to be an asset to any space empire.

Hope its gonna be easy to mod the syncretic evolution origin to allow for non servile serf species. All for the New World Order.

Image: Members of the Just Alliance meet at the 12,391st Tri-Weekly Summit on Loraxia Prime. From L-R; President Scree of the Bwauki Empire, Executive S’Lig of the Glukkonian Guild, President Ur’Ine of the Uri Nation, Matriarch Lyssa of the Lorax League, and Chancellor Fillur of the Eredi Assembly.

The Just Alliance federation is considering a declaration of war request from the Uri Nation, a member state which has absolutely no plans to assist in the war effort.

Presenting its proposal to its four fellow federation members, the Bwauki Multisystem, Glukkonian Guild, Eredi Assembly and presiding Lorex League, the Uri Nation appealed for military intervention against its larger neighbour, the Cevanti Empire.

Uri diplomats highlighted the urgent need for intervention against the Cevanti’s ill treatment of slave pops, while also adding that the transfer of several resource-rich border systems to Uri control would be “an extra bonus.”

Uri Nation leader Ur’Ine told Xenonion News:

“This war is vitally important for furthering the interests of the Uri Nation and… er, of course, the whole Just Alliance. Those poor slave pops, toiling away on all that precious Betharian stone. They must be rescued. Of course, if there’s room for the slave pops they should be taken too.”

[Preben]

That Galactic Senate looks like something that should represent internal politics instead.

 

[oldmanpaco]

That Lithoids pack is gonna be cool.

Is this irony? Can't tell. $8 for background spreadsheet shenanigans and some pixel art work?

 

[oldmanpaco]

It will come with new mechanics for Lithoids.

Yeah minerals from for and some habitability changes. Almost like they moved some numbers around on a spreadsheet.
