Yes! This video reminded me so much of my first Stellaris game, when everything felt fresh, you had to take the AI serious because you had no idea what you were doing and what they were actually capable of. So nostalgic.
@@igorthelight Yes, Stellaris certainly has a lot of awesome mods. Gigastructural engineering and ACOT are my all time favourites. But its hard to take it seriously after a couple of playthroughs, since more mods doesnt make the AI much better and once you've defeated the crisises a few times, they stop being that threatening. But for the newest dlc that came out last week for example I have not read anything about it to make it feel as new as possible and its actually fun. This is coupled with the fact that it is genuinly a good expansion. Another important thing is, that I've learned about the Stellaris graphic processor coupleing issue, where the game is being slowed down by your graphics card for some reason, even though your proccessor is more than capable to go faster. To fix that, you need to play the game in fullscreen settings and disable V-Sync. Dont ask why that is, that issue apparently has been in the code since the beginning and never got noticed or fixed. But playing with the new settings has improved the endgame performance dramatically. If you want to know more about it, there is a reddit post somewhere where everything is explained.
In CK3 you can colonize Finland with Nigerians. In HOI 4, you can destroy the whole world being Luxemburg. In Stellaris, you can blow up the Galaxy, playing with evil collective mind who likes Gaia worlds and uses alien races as their food, or creating a large slave worlds being an overlord of many other empires.
That was so fun to watch! Hope you continue this series. It's very rare to see such a well-made video about a newcomer trying stellaris. I still remember my first stellaris playthrough, I was so careful about the great unknown. It is to this day def in my top 5 playthroughs. I remember my robots becoming sentient and demanding rights or they would revolt and me going "WHAT ARE RIGHTS??" frantically searching through all the menus trying to find it before my empire implodes 😂. Good times
Good video. I'm a CK player who played a little Stellaris when it first came out, got bored, and stopped. I've revisited over the last year and found it has gotten a lot more interesting. You mentioned that you wish CK3 had more things to discover, like Stellaris. I do feel that it's worth pointing out that Stellaris has many more years of events that have been added to the game. Also you are new to Stellaris but have been playing a lot of CK3. Once you've been playing Stellaris a while, having the event where you move the aliens off the gas giant or discover an atomic age civilization come up once again loses some of the same thrill, much like the way you get familiar with events in CK3. Granted, good events should be providing you with interesting choices whether you have seen them before or not. There is also the point that Stellaris is a game about discovery, while CK3 largely isn't. That might change though. Playing landless characters wandering around the map will have a very different dynamic. I would like to see more detailed pop and economy mechanics in CK3. On the one hand, I understand that nobility are not merchants. They let the little people handling all the grubbiness of business and simply skill off the top in the form of taxes, so I understand why it isn't essential. On the other hand, we are on the cusp of having unlanded characters in the game, which should lead to a much wider range of approaches to the game. Assuming the landless mechanics work you, it should really open the door to playing merchant families in a way that CK2 never really achieved. That would give them a good reason to really expand the economic side of the game. Looking the other direction at what I wish Stellaris could take from CK3, I wish Stellaris had actual characters. NPCs in Stellaris are basically just buffs you plug into a slot. Even factions feel largely lifeless. Speaking of factions, it's always annoyed me that factions only emerge over the course of the game. It seems like the empires of the game should be a lot more factionalized before you encounter other species. I find the early game can be pretty slow, especially once you seen most of the anomaly events a few times. Having actual internal politics in the early game would make the early game more interesting, and make empires more interesting overall.
1:34: It's at this moment I realised that LrdHsy has no DLC for Stellaris 🤯😱 (The number 1 mistake when it comes to Paradox games is playing it in Vanilla 😂)
@@lrdhsy I'm currently battling the urges to buy First contact and Astral planes For a few starts and a few civics that I want to test out in a few (MANY) build idea I have😬🤣 The wallet curse is strong 😅😂
To be fair, unlike other PDX games, no DLC Stellaris is barebones compared to DLC Stellaris but is still very enjoyable, I had around 200-300 hours before I decided to get the Utopia DLC
Utopia is a must-get, but other than that, grab what looks interesting when it's on -50%. If the sense of discovery is what you like, Ancient Relics is a good one too.
This video was one of the best and most enjoyable videos i have seen in a while, in general, and especially stellaris videos. This was so good, please play more/do more videos on Stellaris. Also that music over the space battles were epic.
I played Stellaris for like 800 Hours. Than people came to me and told me that CK3 is basically Stellaris but in Medieval Age. So i bought it and man, my disappointment of CK3 is without limits 😅
With the current state of crusader kings 3 I think stellaris is better. It’s been better balanced. The developers really made the game soooo much better over the years.
I'm not sure how to feel about the fact that someone with virtually zero experience in this game did better than some of my games, given I have over 700 hours... XD
You really need to buy the dlc. The community agrees that Stellaris is pretty much an empty game without any dlc, so I’m guessing you’d enjoy it even more. Playing the game with friends that have the dlc would be a better idea now that I think about it
The reason why the other nations had awful military strength is because recent AI changes the devs made incorporated some community suggestions or contributions. Since that time the AI has been terrible with managing their economy, and thus terrible at being able to fund a strong military. Not two patches ago I remember being scared to death to play a run on Ensign (the base difficulty) now if I don't set difficulty to Commodore the run is a cakewalk. PDX AI...
The first time I played Stellaris I played a Xenophobe Devine Ruler nation 🤔 My first neighbour I encountered was some hideous creature who was also a Xenophobe 🤯 But instead of having the planned/envisioned rivalry between our 2 nations we became best friends solely due to both of us hating our other neighbour for some reason🤣🤣 (I don't remember what their ethics were. I think they were like Egalitarian Xenophiles 🤣😅)
Stellaris is closer to EU4... and EU4 is closer to CK3 then it is to Stellaris "I found an automation button" ...oh no, oh god he clicked it yeap watching new players is agony
the video is pretty cool :y I also tried out Stellaris some time ago. It's.....different than CK3, but as you said, the discovery part is very thrilling. And the customization is very cool too. I have some optional advice for your potential future videos: When filming the ship battles, you could try to either have slow camera movements and zooms; with cuts in between the shots to redirect the points people look at, rather than jumping around with the camera like you'd do in the standard gameplay. That way it would be a bit more cinematic and easier to watch :3
"Getting hit with any new Paradox UI is like getting hit by Mike Tyson" - oh, I felt that. I came back to Stellaris recently after a few years and just developing the muscle memory to navigate around was a process. That being said I must admit that I adore the simple, yet effective use of keys - WASD obviously let's you move around, but E allows you to quickly move out to galaxy map, while Q will focus camera on whatever you have selected, wherever in the galaxy it might be. Mastering E and Q really was the key to comfortably zooming around the map.
1st playthrough: Welcome to the federation! Have some complimentary cookies! 2nd playthrough: LET THE SEAS BOIL! LET THE STARS FALL! LET THE GALAXY BURN!
Stellaris, the game where you cause space genocide without a problem but feel bad for removing a senator/governor or not agreeing with every degree of a minor faction that is responsible for 5% of your total influence. A game where you can have military power to conquer 50% of galaxy but doens't do, not because the war would be hard but because it would be too trouble to manage half the galaxy
I am in almost the exact opposite boat - I have been down deep on the Stellaris rabbit hole for years and started firing up CK2 and EU4 after not touching them for years. The exploration and discovery of Stellaris keeps me super engaged, even years later, but the same kind of random turns of drama in the CK games makes it really fun as well. I honestly would love to see a fusion of the two - a space 4X where you play as a single character/dynasty, not just an empire.
Having played enough of this game to know pretty much every event off the top of my head, it's so refreshing and interesting to see it from a new player's perspective. Quick tip about the difficulty: Ensign is the default, where you're just playing the game as normal. I'd recommend that one. If you go below it, you, the player, will get bonuses to almost every part of your empire. At the lowest difficulty, civilian, you get for example double resources and fleet capacity compared to AIs. It is the opposite the higher you go, with the AI getting stupidly high bonuses to their economy and military at the grand admiral difficulty. If you want to try higher difficulties, there's a setting called "Difficulty scaling", which makes it so their buffs aren't applied in full right from the get-go, but is instead slowly increased as the game progresses, to try and match an experienced player's snowballing. It's a good setting, I'd recommend setting it to late game if you wanna try going higher difficulty at some point. Anyway, pretty nice video. The Stellaris expansion ads go so hard in those edits, very cool. :)
The focus on how cool the battles look through this is a banger decision. The battles in this game look so insane, its just a shame that watching the big ones can massively lag out your computer..
I have nearly 2k hours in the game, I've been playing it since launch, and let me tell you; once the game starts to feel old and stale look to the workshop. New portraits, new planets, new civics, new origins, new tech, new megastructures, new policies, and most importantly new events. The base game and its DLC has a massive wealth of content, worthy of the Great Lakes. Add in mods and you're dealing with the Pacific ocean. Wish you many hours in the game.
I play ck2 and stellaris, from what i feel from the two games i can say ck2 is more focused on the character, and other characters around you, whereas in stellaris the empire is you're character vs the other empires. I enjoy both in their own way, but stellaris is my favourite of the two, mostly cause being an empire over an individual gives you a lot of freedom, and i like blowing up planets.
Personally ck2 is one of the few paradox games i actually spend time on. Not a legal copy tho god knows i cant afford that as a inhabitant of the balkans with no localized prices. i refuse to pay them a dime anyway
It is a very long game, but if you stick with it the late game allows you to build some excellent sci-fi stuff and gives you a galaxy wide crisis that you have to deal with.
Stellaris is an absolutely gorgeous game. It’s far too easy for long time players like me to forget that or take it for granted. Thanks for the reminder :)
It's cool seeing what Stellaris feels like to someone completely new to it. =] 1,600 hours, playing since release. There is no story, only power, and crushing the xenos under my boot.
Just wait till you meet Crisis ^.^ On "easy" difficulty first crisis could slap you damn hard, as you could be hardly prepared, and AI has no any bonuses to resis crisis, sou you must solo it.
I started out with Stellaris and then learned CK3. I definitely think theres a lot of good Stellaris economic systems that they should port over but I'd also love to see more roleplay aspects in Stellaris like what CK3 has
I’d like to point out how you have been using auto-designed ships. They are alright to say the least though it’s better to design your own designs as sometimes auto design is complete BS
stellaris is an amazing game. its tied w ck3 for my fav paradox. id say ck3 has the stronger base game but stellaris has so so so many dlcs that are all so amazing i have to give it to stellaris if u can afford to shell out the extra money.
Honestly, the Intel system that was added a few expansions ago was a great addition to the game. Originally, when you met a new empire (and there weren't First Contact events either) you knew exactly who they were, how strong they were compared to you, and what their borders were. Having to set up a spy network to gain intel to remove the fog of war was a distinct improvement. The only downside is that the actual spy missions are pretty useless most of the time.
@@lrdhsy oh for sure.. ive been playing since day one so ive been able to buy them as they came out making it not as heavy on the pocketbook but when you can, if you really wanna enjoy everything the game has to offer, its worth it.. endless combinations and replay ability.. its one of my favorite games of all time... im thinking about getting CK3 and all its dlc but i find that one harder to get into. it feels like the diplomacy system in that game (at least vanilla) isnt all that great.. combat seems a little lack luster but maybe i just need to get the DLCs like stellaris.. ive only played it on gamepass where vanilla is "free"
I am always genuinely sad when the atomic age aliens blow themselves up. Imagine spending your lifetime studying an alien culture with the distinct possibility that in the next couple decades they invent their first space craft, only to watch from orbit as they blow themselves up.
You have not yet reached te midgame and the endgame crisis. They are decently dificult and you do need some skill to even have a chance of defeating them.
damn the combo of space lasers and phonk is a strong one
Hyperventilated a bit when I saw ur comment 👍
Thanks for watching im glad u enjoyed the space phonk

The Apocalypse expansion trailer- the best ad for a game I've seen in a long time

You can determine the quality of a Paradox game by the amount of warcrimes you can commit.

I’d like to point out how you have been using auto-designed ships. They are alright to say the least though it’s better to design your own designs as sometimes auto design is complete BS
Ooo okay thank you I will try that
This was a great watch! Nice humour and editing :)
Thank you 😁
stellaris is an amazing game. its tied w ck3 for my fav paradox. id say ck3 has the stronger base game but stellaris has so so so many dlcs that are all so amazing i have to give it to stellaris if u can afford to shell out the extra money.
Might have to shell out 😬
Don't know how you get around in live, but congrats, you made it another day. 😝
Thanks
hardest vid so far more of Stellaris rahhhh 😩
You have only seen like 2% of the game
I hope you enjoyed yourself! Next game ... Purge the galaxy
😈

The xenophobia pipeline.
I hope this will be continued.
This video needs a list of track IDs, nothing but bangers
I’ll look into that

Great Video 😁👍
Great Video !
So... more stellaris please
Yeah. It's good.
nice vid man
really nice video
Honestly, the Intel system that was added a few expansions ago was a great addition to the game. Originally, when you met a new empire (and there weren't First Contact events either) you knew exactly who they were, how strong they were compared to you, and what their borders were. Having to set up a spy network to gain intel to remove the fog of war was a distinct improvement. The only downside is that the actual spy missions are pretty useless most of the time.
Based on the date at the end of the vid you've got a lot more game coming, i'd love to see the next 150 in game years played too
Part 2 perhaps?
@@lrdhsy Assuming the save doesn't corrupt with the new update, I'd definitely watch it
Nice
Ah. The Jaynoecide simulator.
Once you get into the late game, the lights from the lazers Lazer are so bright you'll barely see the ships 😅
U need all the dlc to make stellaris worth it. It’s an amazing game with soooooo many possibilities
Yeah but so expensive 😬
@@lrdhsy oh for sure.. ive been playing since day one so ive been able to buy them as they came out making it not as heavy on the pocketbook but when you can, if you really wanna enjoy everything the game has to offer, its worth it.. endless combinations and replay ability.. its one of my favorite games of all time... im thinking about getting CK3 and all its dlc but i find that one harder to get into. it feels like the diplomacy system in that game (at least vanilla) isnt all that great.. combat seems a little lack luster but maybe i just need to get the DLCs like stellaris.. ive only played it on gamepass where vanilla is "free"
I mean it’s on sale atm 👀
Thumbnail made me turn off recommendations.
What’s wrong with the thumbnail 😭
@@lrdhsy I was diagnosed with cringe and they took me behind the shed.
I have played this game alot and its great with mods you should try it love the vid
I am always genuinely sad when the atomic age aliens blow themselves up. Imagine spending your lifetime studying an alien culture with the distinct possibility that in the next couple decades they invent their first space craft, only to watch from orbit as they blow themselves up.
Probs the coolest thing I saw in the game was the pre ftl civs. Such a good concept and rly immersive

You have not yet reached te midgame and the endgame crisis. They are decently dificult and you do need some skill to even have a chance of defeating them.
How many hours until mid game?
