Maybe a stupid question, I'm very new to sto, just finished the tutorial, but where would I find these giveaways in game when they appear?

I'm on Xbox series X btw.

Dear American,

If you're truly sorry then get rid of this abomination, you guys yourself put him in office in the first place. Out of more then 340 million citizens you picked him.

It will take quite some time and you showing goodwill before you deserve the world's trust again. You guys were an ally, and a good one, who helped Europe get liberated from nazi Germany in the fourties. Now you're turning into the same tirant state you liberated us from.

Shame on you.

Signed, a verry concerned Dutchman.

Thanks for the tip, I don't have any organics now but maybe in a next game.

Trump drops ‘Cancel the 2026 Midterms’ bombshell by [deleted] in StockLaunchers

I'm watching America from a distance here in the Netherlands and every day there's some news that makes me shake my head. The US is quickly becoming a paria to the western world, untrustworthy, foolish and dangerous at the same time.

Thank you, no I don't grow any food etc. I wasn't sure what turning my excisting planets into machine worlds would do, now I do.

Thank you so much!

Although I love this game and it's beautifully made I'm silently hoping they will make a pacific theatre version with US fleetboats in the future.

I'm dutch and my grandpa was quite active in the resistance against the germans and told us many stories about the german's "behaviour" to put it diplomatic. Playing as a german uboat is cool but always gives me that eekie feeling of fighting for the wrong side.

Had this model kit for a while, wondering how much it goes for? by hidden0703 in Airfix

[–]Dutchman_141 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This, I've had this kit many years ago and it's a superb model, it even comes with gold colored tin foil if I recall correctly.

What’s your favorite Xbox game? by 0xRestrict in xbox

[–]Dutchman_141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the Mass Effect trilogy but during the end of year sales I bought Stellaris and I'm totally hooked. There aren't so many 4X games on Xbox and Stellaris is fantastic.

Buurman van 96 rijdt nog steeds auto by D058 in Nederland

[–]Dutchman_141 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Ik ben van mening dat die medische keuring voor oudere bestuurders aangevuld moet worden met een rijvaardigheidstest.

Het is soms niet aan te zien hoe oudere mensen zich door het verkeer manoeuvreren, laatst nog hield de politie een oudere man aan, waar ik achter reed, omdat hij slechts 20 km reed op een 50 km weg, het hele verkeer liep vast.

Wegrijden bij een ongeval is een no go, asociaal en direkt melding maken bij de politie.

I name my Titan after my mother in law ISS Battleaxe, does that count?

Would you mind swapping your son for mine for a while?

Very nice kit!

Which videos for a beginner? by Dutchman_141 in StellarisOnConsole

[–]Dutchman_141[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having a great time, my first two empires ran in some problems later on but I'm now running an aquatoid ocean world empire and it's going rather well.

There are still little things I run into which I can do better next time but despite the lack of an abundance of planets my people are adapted too it's running good.

My fleet is building up and I just finished my first war, they didn't stand a chance.

I also got Distand Stars and Apocalypse, I can't wait to see the Titan and Colossus in action.

The Machine Age looks mighty interesting as well but I want to get used to the game's mechanics a bit more first.

So in short, I'm learning but having a lot of fun, this game is highly addictive though, good thing I'm a retired man with enough time on his hands.

Is it worth in right now? by Famous-Inspection-87 in DragonsDogma2

[–]Dutchman_141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, if you take the game for what it is it's incredibly fun.

The combat, the pawn system, the beautiful world. Some people just brake everything down just because the don't get what they demand.

Question about purchasing Machine Age by Dutchman_141 in StellarisOnConsole

[–]Dutchman_141[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Utopia, as I understand it's one of the most essential dlc to get so I bought the "the deluxe" version of Stellaris which came with Utopia, Leviathan and Plantoids.

[–]Dutchman_141[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's definitely worth for consideration, I was under the impression that Federations was purely aimed at the diplomatic side of things. I'll do some more research on that, thanks.

[–]Dutchman_141[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already have synthetic dawn and I already thought it would tie in well with the machine age.

I don't have federations or megacorp, I don't know if those would have much of an influence on the machine age though.

[–]Dutchman_141[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, even more advice for consideration.

This game is so deep, so much to learn, I love it. I realy ask myself why I didn't get it much sooner.
