In 40K, the galaxy was pretty much fucked before humanity ever reached the stars. funny thing? If humanity hadn't gone imperium, it's likely that Orks lead by beasts would have overrun the galaxy.
What I got from this video: Eldrad learned nothing from the birth of Slaanesh. Emps learned nothing from the Horus Heresy. The Deceiver has an actual reason for what he’s doing. Boy has not only achieved everything Horus did, but has outdone Horus. The fantasy role play characters are still around. Vulcan is a frog pirate. The only hope for survival is for everyone to stop fighting and be friends. And everyone’s collective opinion on that option is best summarized as “Fuck that shit”.

I am confused about this. i have a question for the warhammer fan. Fantasy and 40K. If i remember end time in fantasy is a shitstorm everyone hated. And currently the 40K setting recently came out of it's perpetual stasis and seems moving toward it's own version of the end time. Is this what the necroid not-deciever is referencing here ? The writer aiming to screw everything in order to retcon the whole verse ? Is he being meta ?
@@smile-tl9in Yeah, the Deciever here actually represents a section of the 40k fan base, who are now absolutely terrified of lore progression of any kind due to The End Times, and also how they handled AoS, so a lot of people actually would rather keep 40k as it currently is, unresolved plot holes and all, rather than “go straight down the End Times pit”
Also keeping in mind that this entire series exists as a pretense to justify a tabletop game about perpetual never-ending war. So the status quo will be maintained as long as that group of fans can be milked. But it's starting to get to the point where people who want to "get the hell on with it already" are outnumbering the people who just want stasis.@@TotallyNotAlpharius
So basically at 21:24 the Emperor decided to summon the Stellaris equivalents of the Tyranids, the Forces of Chaos, and the Men of Iron all at once. Good thing he didn't do event fallen_empires_awakening.1, that would've caused the Necrons to awaken and restart the War in Heaven.
That would have been awesome. I actually find the War in Heaven to be scarier than the crisis, but that's mostly because I'm used to the old updates, back when decadence wasn't a thing and they just steamrolled everyone if you didn't murder Awakened Empires quickly enough.
@Criss Poyner I feel like Bion Bel'Bonson is also underdeveloped. He spends some time hanging out with Boboute Builliman and Banguinius, then burns some worlds offscreen, before being betrayed by his second-in-command.
@@TheWarmachine375 i mean i think they could have done with it better. a caste system sort of uptopian society in 40k is still interesting because it can still be competent and relatively free while still being a stratified society, showing just how crazy the 40k world is. but they had to add to 1984 shit for some reason and i feel it was unncessary. having a faction that is competent and treats its citizens decently, only for it to be surronding and take its time to expand.
Every once in a while I remind myself that this started with one rigid cutout talking to a text-to-speech device and remain in fucking awe of how far it went.

Yeah it was like that, now with espionage every mp game is just like f-ing AmongUs... It's so funny to play the Trustworthy-non-Deciever-Ally-Friend while prepearing the fleets to jump two neighbouring capitals at once just as soon as the planet killer is finished)))
I also find it funny that the Emperor, Kitten, the Companions, Boy, Rogal Dorn, Corax, Vulkan, a Techpriest, the Tour Guide, Eldrad, The Deceiver and Jeff all decided to play some Stellaris and somehow got into the same lobby. Of course, this being the grim darkness of the far future, there's probably only one lobby in the entire galaxy.
@@Alino- Huh. And here I was thinking that was Tzeentch or some generalized representation of Chaos, given that Boy was basically Horus 2.0 in this one.
The Void Dragon wants to stay in hibernation, but they bribe him with energy so he hosts their every-so-often gaming sessions. He's the only machine powerful enough in the whole galaxy to accurately simulate the whole galaxy.
With the average time a 4x game could take they should be near enought that most people start their second game so many lobbys should reopen soon for them
@Libtards still Cant silence me The Not-God King is the Emperor, and while technically the Shaman'a his character, but as in his "chosen" as an avatar. She's still her own character.
"HEY, ANYONE WANNA GET CUCKOLDED IN CRUSADER KINGS?!" "BLEEAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH!" - Such poetic sentences that made me almost piss myself from laughter Marvelous.
"And my favorite son... Boy!" Ahhhhh so that's where Horus went. I knew his soul had to have gone somewhere. I had originally made this comment as a joke. The fact that it came true 5 minutes later is absolutely hilarious.
@Criss Poyner Unfortunately, not really, no. Current lore says that the Emperor destroyed Horus' soul along with his body, so that ostensibly Chaos couldn't put him back together to raise the Traitors again.
I'd actually be happy with this. Horus broken so thoroughly that in reality (if ever confronted) he just asks to be able to sit down, be a boy, grow up and be unimportant. Actually could hand Roboute all his Primarch rights for ever.
One of my best experiences playing Stellaris was a roleplay session where I was a nation of fanatic purifiers who'd had their planet nearly annihilated by a slaver empire that stole the majority of their population. We adapted and survived on the near-dead rock and built an immense fleet to purge the cosmos. Once I'd annihilated both Marauder factions, I changed ethics to no longer be Fanatic Xenophobe and just became a massive isolationist empire, as our people had been avenged. Then we were the only force strong enough to stand against the endgame crisis.
Modded, if such. If you select fanatical purifiers, you can't change that while the game is in progress. The POINT is you are to fanatical to change your mind. Ever.
@@terenin6423 Nope, you can change your ethics, just not remove the Purifiers civic. You gain no benefit from it while not Fanatic Xenophobe, but you can indeed alter your ethics.
@@Vherstinae This. You can lose the benefits of that civic by changing ethics, but if you reclaim your original ethics at any point, the civic becomes active again.
The Deceiver is right though. The story can never be allowed to progress beyond constant, never-ending war or the setting and game are done. You can't have a winner or it's all over.
I feel like that was sort of a meta commentary on how Warhammer Fantasy Battle ended, and how 40k fans fear a similar fate will happen if the plot goes too far.
Daniel Silva And if The Deceivers last appearance on the channel was any indication, this exposition dump at 16:58 is probably a Freudian slip of his _real_ endgame regarding TTS...

Eh, 40k has the Age of Apostasy, the war of the Beast, the Horus Heresy, and more events. The plot moving on is not an issue. Destroying the setting by having Chaos or Tyranids win is. There will always be more battles, new heroes, more technology, and a future ahead. The "bad" guys can win, and they can win big, but it has to be balanced with a glimmer of hope for the other side to regroup and return.

“Space Game Pain” well, that’s certainly an apt way to describe Stellaris, if not a slight understatement...perhaps on a similar level of pain on the Lamenters.
@@cakeboss4194 both of them are filled with immense pain, and at least the Lamenters have our sympathy. Stellaris players get bullied even by Imperator: Rome players.
I keep coming back to this, and even if I’m reading wayyyyyy too hard into it, the Deceiver as an analogy for folks who don’t want the setting of Fantasy/40K to change all that much is so good.
Y'know, gotta say, I'm surprised the option to play as a sub-commander for others hasn't already made it into the game yet. Would make online more interesting if you rolled into matches with others and could get your friends to play as your subordinates.
lowkey almost all paradox games would be better with that as a formal feature (compared to most having a clumsy Co-op mode which leads to overrulling of one another)
You can sort of set it up yourself if you wanted too. If you set it to cluster player starts and agree on who rules the empire as a whole, you can find each other within the first few minutes and just swear fealty to them.
There's the origins that lets you start as either a federation or a Hegemony, and you can probably set up a game where you have players take over the AI for the two automatically generated empires for that origin just after game start...
In light of recent events, I watched this video out of mourning. However… If this is the future of TTS, then someone remind me to bring my sunglasses bc **it be bright as frick BOOOOIII**
The funniest part is how they could re-create the entirety of W40K lore using Stellaris including > Any filthy xeno species and I mean ANY > Tyranids as a crisis > Necrons as a crisis > Chaos as a crisis ( I mean the actual Gods) > Men of Iron event > The Imperium as a fallen empire then going full awakened with Bobby G at the helm > Fucking 4 different methods of Exterminatus
The men of iron event is a thing, The machiens -can- rebel. The war in heaven has the Fallen empires waking up, this can include the Extreme Militarists. Chaos can happen, The Shroud has many secrets that will END THE FUCKING CYCLE. Tyranids technically exist as a crisis already, with the bio-scourge. Necrons too in a way, robots trying to cleanse all life.
Alfabusa has done the literally impossible. He has achieved a greatness I have never seen work before. A sponsorship that is perfect in its inclusion and not abrasive at all. I’m gonna buy stellaris now, and see if my friends want to play too
Key words of advice: population growth and science are the keys to victory. Also until you have a good handle on everything go with Kitten's strategy, be nice, avoid wars as best you can. Having said that maintaining a good defense fleet is a good deterrent.
@@EloquentTroll Agreed. Unless I'm playing a warmongerer I build massive fleets just to leave them docked at the station as a bargaining chip whenever my neighbors get uppity.
@@StarboyXL9 I just build tall and get ships that outperform larger fleets. It's hilarious when aggressive neighbors attempt invasion. Especially when it's a friend. One got really war-happy and tried to conquer my territory, failed on the initial invasion, and in less than a year my fleets pushed him back to his homeworld, and stole a ring world in the process. We reloaded for his dignity but it was hilarious to witness.

"There is NO narrative to drive us to the brink. Only SWEET BEAUTIFUL SETTING." That one hit home.
"Fuck you Games Workshop" in so many words.
I am confused about this.
i have a question for the warhammer fan. Fantasy and 40K. If i remember end time in fantasy is a shitstorm everyone hated. And currently the 40K setting recently came out of it's perpetual stasis and seems moving toward it's own version of the end time. Is this what the necroid not-deciever is referencing here ? The writer aiming to screw everything in order to retcon the whole verse ? Is he being meta ?
@@smile-tl9in Yes, he is being meta and referencing the End Times of Warhammer Fantasy. Seems to also have been his thing in TTS proper.
@@smile-tl9in Yeah, the Deciever here actually represents a section of the 40k fan base, who are now absolutely terrified of lore progression of any kind due to The End Times, and also how they handled AoS, so a lot of people actually would rather keep 40k as it currently is, unresolved plot holes and all, rather than “go straight down the End Times pit”
Also keeping in mind that this entire series exists as a pretense to justify a tabletop game about perpetual never-ending war.
So the status quo will be maintained as long as that group of fans can be milked. But it's starting to get to the point where people who want to "get the hell on with it already" are outnumbering the people who just want stasis.@@TotallyNotAlpharius
So basically at 21:24 the Emperor decided to summon the Stellaris equivalents of the Tyranids, the Forces of Chaos, and the Men of Iron all at once. Good thing he didn't do event fallen_empires_awakening.1, that would've caused the Necrons to awaken and restart the War in Heaven.
The Necron Shard vs the Eldar Guardians?
That would have been awesome. I actually find the War in Heaven to be scarier than the crisis, but that's mostly because I'm used to the old updates, back when decadence wasn't a thing and they just steamrolled everyone if you didn't murder Awakened Empires quickly enough.
For me contigency more like the awakening of necron, unbidden = chaos, scourge = space locust
@@playwars3037 I mean that's who the Most Trustworty One was playing as. Hence the "Necroids" name, and how they were robbing graves.

One of my best experiences playing Stellaris was a roleplay session where I was a nation of fanatic purifiers who'd had their planet nearly annihilated by a slaver empire that stole the majority of their population. We adapted and survived on the near-dead rock and built an immense fleet to purge the cosmos. Once I'd annihilated both Marauder factions, I changed ethics to no longer be Fanatic Xenophobe and just became a massive isolationist empire, as our people had been avenged. Then we were the only force strong enough to stand against the endgame crisis.
Modded, if such. If you select fanatical purifiers, you can't change that while the game is in progress. The POINT is you are to fanatical to change your mind. Ever.
@@terenin6423 Nope, you can change your ethics, just not remove the Purifiers civic. You gain no benefit from it while not Fanatic Xenophobe, but you can indeed alter your ethics.
