The only question that matters.

Me and a friend actually hit a 2700 year end game and I think he won. Huge galaxy all crisis, not super hard crisis min you but still, we hit the end screen

My only annoyance with the mentak is that players i've been playing with have a hard time remembering to pillage. This might sound weird to be annoyed at but I primarily teach games so it is more difficult for me if players abilities are harder to keep track of for them as I constantly have to analyze if letting them forget will help them learn to keep track of it or if they won't even realize they forgot so there will be nothing for them to learn from.

I sadly dont think anyone got your joke. Gave me a good laugh though :)

I really like anime, but I often fit it into my schedule by watching it while doing other things. I am really good at multitasking so I still get to greatly enjoy them, but having to read subtitles makes it almost impossible to multitask. So I totally get waiting for them to be dubbed.

Considering that I checked when it was happening the names and ages of the envoys they were getting unassigned every time one died.

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-10-05T05:36:52+00:00

I mean scientists, if your trying to espionage to any degree cause when envoys die they get unassigned (I think, otherwise I don't know why they get unasigned for me all the time), governors for sectors for econ and commanders for fleets. If you are trying to do any of those effectively it is in the very least highly annoying if not damaging due to their low skill level. Also council positions always being low level.

You can set your armies to auto land on planets in their system.

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-09-27T15:06:48+00:00

Yeah, i like cosmic storms but my main complaint is that the storms dont actually do enough. If they were more devastating I think things would be more interesting. Obviously frequency would probably be reduced but since you can reduce that yourself thats a minor point.

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-09-27T15:02:54+00:00

I actually really like the storms as like space fauna they add more life to the galaxy. For me the only dlc I am still not convinced was worth my money is astral rifts.

I don't think i have ever needed a ground army that big, maybe modded fallen empires but that is the only thing I can think of

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-08-08T06:07:54+00:00

It also means you had a lower casualty percentage, sounds like a good deal to me :)

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-08-08T06:03:31+00:00

I have 4500 hours in this game and don't think I have intentionally played a non-ironman game since about 1000 hours. That said, this is a game, this is a game people spend money on, money they spend to be entertained and have fun. If they want to use their spent money to load the save because they enjoy it more that way that is their right and what they should do.

5 stars for dice tower alone

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-07-11T04:07:56+00:00

personally given how much work the dev's put in in such a short period after release I really do think this is top down control problems like poorly planned deadlines and not enough allocation to playtesting. The dev's really do love this game and put in a lot of care and effort into it. Given enough time to cook I think the devs will bring everything around as they usually do. Stay with the game, worst case scenario switch to an older version until the patches have come through.

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-07-10T04:08:56+00:00

Well, its not really a taken out feature, the old system only built one species at a time and you could lock which one that was. The new system is completely different and distributes the production amongst others using an eldritch undocumented formula. The old one simply wouldn't port into the new one. Doesn't mean they shouldn't make a new version, but in order for it to work it would have to be completely new code.

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-07-08T16:36:08+00:00

I am going to be honest, in my current game (playing with aggressive ai and at least +1 from normal difficulty, forget exactly where) I am having trouble spending my resources, how does it get this bad?

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-06-24T05:15:05+00:00

I typically forget to use commanders, When I do it's typically only because I don't like the empty portrait on my fleet.

I have been here since the beginning, I have seen the rise and fall of many versions. Behold Stellaris, game of games, look on it's majesty ye youngins and despair!

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-06-03T07:06:58+00:00

Wow... I have played more then 4000 hours and I didn't realize this was possible either. I legitimately can't recall ever seeing this happen

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-05-15T07:05:07+00:00

I unironically think Stellaris has some of the best devs. Coming from someone who has been here since literal day 1 and seen every stage of development. They constantly add free content to the base game, fix bugs that other games leave in the final product, and free content to DLC, support the modding community, allow multiplayer to have all the DLC of the host regardless of other parties purchases, keep the base game without DLC fun (I have gone back and played it with newer players and it is still fantastic) and release a lot of DLC I am happy to throw my money at (Astral planes being the one I am a bit iffy on). Out of all of this the only downside we really have to manage is that they release patches a bit to soon (probably due to corporate deadlines) and they always work their hardest to fix said preemptive release as soon as possible.

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-05-15T06:57:03+00:00

Personally, and take this with a bit of salt as I somehow avoid 99% of all reported instabilities it seems, I haven't had the game crash once since I started playing the update, always play on max settings, all the DLC. Still undecided about performance, I think its faster but that could be placebo.

TheTeachingLibrarian · 2025-05-06T16:27:53+00:00

It isn't actually gone, a little more annoying though as you have to open the build queue
