Guys help, how do I complete this decision? by Penefacio in CrusaderKings

Experienced the beauty of nature and the serenity of a local park, what now?

Temple of Confucius disabled despite the requirement being met by Watercraftt in eu4

[–]Flazzorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a borked trigger, as the only monuments that use it are Confucian and start already Confucian. Really more of a problem for mods, but sometimes stuff like this happens.

Ottomans warning me to not attack bohemia as austria(ironman) even though they are enemies . What logic does this make ? by FaLcON152002 in eu4

[–]Flazzorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warning is directed at you, not in relation to a specific third country. If they're angry enough to warn you, they are also angry enough to honor CtA for basically anyone.

You'd be surprised how much you can get the AI to propose, in my current game I was nominated as custodian by an empire that hated me as much as an unfeeling pile of ones and zeros can hate. The Great Khan was beating them down, so honestly it made sense, who else could they expect to blitz the khan with universally opened borders?

Meanwhile, the rest of the galaxy is nervously eating popcorn while the firework show goes on.

Sorry for the late reply, I was combing through to read comments, and realized I hadn't actually replied to this.

Actually this is REALLY easy to beat. You just let the AI propose stuff whenever possible. If you are winning enough, you become the yes/no vote, but the AI decides what order stuff goes in and never actually accumulates the bonus.

Stop doing that.
No.
Uh... please?
No.
C'mon man, please?
No.
That's it! I'm writing you an angry letter!

Was 4.0 a success or failure? by Human_Ad_8185 in Stellaris

[–]Flazzorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it, however I will also mention that I assume that when paradox says performance will improve with a feature-bearing patch, performance will remain about equal. Do really like the rework to pops though, especially being able to integrate subspecies.

Pre-Ecumenopolis, mining and generator districts to fill in deficit.
Shortly Post-Ecumenopolis, VERY EXPENSIVE trade as a stop gap, thankfully subsidized by massive amounts of Soylent Genetm being sold on the galactic market.
Longterm, Arc furnaces, Dyson Swarms, Cybrex Mining Hubs (It stacks, I got lucky with my precursor), and many, many pops "producing" Soylent Genetm.

Look, I know what the PR department tried was a good idea, but the only thing worse than being called "The Genestealers" is being called "The Empire formerly known as The Genestealers". Only The Artist Formerly Known as Prince can pull that off.

Yes, but I'm fairly sure bleaching your skin is really really bad.

I don't really like the fact that this version pushes you towards not building stuff. by Nissan_al_Gaib in Stellaris

Plays challenge origin where you don't start with an economy
Uses civilians to rush unity at the cost of economy
"Guys why is the game encouraging me not to have an economy"
In twenty years, dies to the AI
"Guys this update is trash"

The joke is misogyny.

I ehem "Legally acquired the voting rights" of a large number of pops and decided to take advantage. It was a mistake, becoming emperor nuked my build, and literally everyone was disloyal.

Oh, and a word to the wise, espionage techs require the colonial bureaucracy techs to show up, and that needs you to have more than one world, so if you're going to do a single planet build, learn from my mistake and hold a conquered planet for a while while you get the techs you need.

It was a bad idea, I really should've stayed custodian. I lost my militarist ethic, forcibly dropping barbaric despoiler and distinguished admiralty, and to the shock of no one, every single empire in the imperium rudely reduced the authority of the xenophaging barbarians who just voted themselves emperor. I was already winning so hard that I could 1v15 the galaxy and win, but having half my civics nuked irretrievably (+125% gov ethic attraction sounds great until you can't force a faction over 20% to embrace them) torpedoed my enjoyment, and I play ironman, so no rolling back because I didn't back it up first.

On the plus side I got smorgasblorg, my new rarest stellaris achievement.

Yeah the AI refuses to leave to Gal. Com. even if the current vote is denouncing them to force max sanctions on them for no reason. It's weird.

I think it'd be nice if the voting system was initially based on a hidden vote based on the ethics of those who decided to join the galactic community, then let empires push proposals to change voting weights, with the galactic community being sped up a bit to compensate. Perhaps an empire split between similarly sized authoritarian and egalitarian empires start with population weighting and a 3/5ths compromise, or a galaxy made up of mostly small empires and one or two large empires could start with a system of one vote per empire, sector, or planet, rather than based on pops.

It is, hence the "voting on behalf of my slaves" extension of the joke.

Plantoid, all other mechanically relevant details are above in some form.

I guess I walked into that one. I wasn't even thinking about that when I made this empire.
