Love live the Empire!

I really like the lore aspect of Stellaris. It has a good mix of interesting, tragic and humourous stories. Today I encountered for the first time those "gas things" living in the atmosphere of a gas planet I had to evacuate to another gas planet due to radiation. They kept in touch with me and asked me to establish a new colony which then resulted in an uprising and me having to clean up the mess.
I wonder how many other events are in the game I haven't even encountered yet.
Probably 100s, I'm yet to encounter the Grand Herald, and I only remember Brain slugs once or twice!! Stellaris is a gift that keeps giving :)
I also have my own ideas for human clones. My idea is that humans were taken from Earth thousands of years ago and used as soldiers and slaves for a vast empire. Then that empire collapsed and vanished, leaving the clone vats to either decay naturally or they were destroyed by the collapsing empire itself. The clones all but died on the majority of worlds. But on one world the clone vats were dormant and are now active. Because of this, and the advanced technology strewn across the planet, these humans have a culture and politics far removed from other humans in the galaxy, and their politics are seen as primitive compared to something like the UNE.
The humans in this case are an imperial cult feudal society, basically a feudal empire but in space
@@TheRedKing Brain slug has gotten a bit easier because one of the fates you can get from the teacher of the shroud can trigger that for you. Before that (in my 4k+ hours of Stellaris) I only had the event twice.
*Shroudwalker enclave. Mixed that up, sorry.
@@TheRedKing I never had the Brain slugs. However, I get the inter-dimensional portal almost every playthrough 🤣.
Gotta say you would make a great enclave. A red themed station who sells tales with minor empire wide bonuses. Sorta like the text version of the curators.
Aha i'll mention this to the devs, should I get the opportunity :)
@@TheRedKing to be truthful for myself and a few friends that play the game quite a lot we would pay for a Enclave based on your lore if it used your texts and more so your voice files for giving the lore like older games did with their ingame codex and if it gave the players empire small boosts based on what they knew it would be worth it even more
I had it that my clone species were like the Orks. They're planetoids(because of the portrait with sharp teeth and because of budding) that had short gestation periods, which was why they were chosen for cloning. Their aggression and fighting capability was increased, a long with a sense of unit cohesion, but before the testing ended their masters collapsed. Because not all of the kinks had been ironed out, the blockers on reproduction had vanished after several thousand years. Now these rapidly reproducing, aggressive, and determined plants were left with technology of their masters and a mission, *Kill the enemy*.
I never played with this origin but once I made a fanatical purifier custom empire.
I had written their backstory as: the remains of an old galactic community's clone army.
somehow, their empire ended up being part of the galactic community (might have modded too hard), I ended up making them galactic custodian (after a while they replaced their fanatic purifier civic). it was kind of ironic how they ended up.

@@isuckatusernames4297 everyone loves a good ol' redemption ark!
Love the ending for the Clone Origins, sounds like every start when I do choose to play as them
Another excellent video! Always found it funny that in Stellaris you can have Clones (a clear nod to Star Wars) fighting alongside Xenomorphs (Alien) against Psy-Warriors (Jedi? Perhaps?) and Super Soldiers (maybe Warhammer Space Marines or, in a more far-fetched connection, akin to Captain America?) it's just an amazing blend of all things sci-fi. Would love to see a lore video covering the ancient dreadnought, I've always found its lore very interesting. Keep up the good work!
Aha! I hope to do something on the dreadnaught and other mechanical ish monsters sometime in April :) Glad you enjoyed the video!!!
“Subspecies one has been rediscovered….. fascinating! The humans are growing quick… prehaphs it’s time for an- intervention…”
The extradimensional warlock relic is the 1st or 2nd most useful relic I've ever found. It's vying with the Rubricator. It gives 15% sunlight speed and doubles the jump radius of your Warp drive. Has been the best thing I've found in a while....oh and I built the pyramids and everybody on earth (sol) fought the first war over it.
illuminati confirmed????????
Love the new immage of the red king😍👌
Ahh just something I was playing with, nothing is replacing the logo DamnDirtyCat did for me :)
Now i have to role-play the Crinn and the jauggernox
Do it !!! :)
Another great video!! Looking forward to the next!
Thank you!! :) Glad you enjoyed it
Love your content very much :) This stuff slaps my buns to bunion town, Real Tawk you make Fantastic Videos and love the way you narrate them. The Cinema references are incredible please keep those up! Scientists Merry and Pippin I just caught the other day lol... Great Stuff ❤️ Keep up the Great Work, King 👑
Thanks MisterDoctor! Glad you're enjoying them!! :)
I remember making a clone empire kinda like the cravers in endless space the amount of genocidal wars spread across the galaxy and made primitives my labor force the campain was just steamroling through the universe definitely my favorite origin next to the necrophages
I love these lore dives!
Ascended Clones are nuts for a tall tech rush build.
Their juggernauts look amazing, love it ! ❤️
A bit of a stratocracy/materialist fanboy myself, I understand their choices so well.
Dam,
mommy, I want one of their juggernaut’s division for Christmas !Plz mom, pls pls pls ! 🥺 lol
Yes a video on my favorite origin
Hope you enjoyed it!!
Great video!
Thanks Axel, glad you enjoyed it!! :)
I usually like to create an empire of clone humans that I later conquer as the CoM to make a grand army of the commonwealth
And a million more to come
Whenever I finally get the clone army I spam on every planète the most I can get
Nice lore videos!
Glad you like them!!!! :)
Minor nitpick, but “Hegemony” is pronounced with g being said like a Capital G or j.
So it’s “hejemony” in pronunciation.
Great video regardless
The British English correct pronunciation is with the hard G. He said it correctly. Please remember that English is a language used by many cultures and pronunciations vary greatly between them.
The only thing left for them to conquer was boredom.
Who created your clone empire is up to the player. ^^
Yes
17 seconds in already a banger
🥰🥰🥰
Go through all that just to find out that you started near a genocidal species. Time to restart the game.
Stellaris can be rough!! 😂
it literally never happened to me and I've probs made at least 30 empires
Love this one
Thanks Mitchell! :)
We were raised for one reason only to wage war that is our purpose
Does stellaris just actively use plot lines from other science fiction, just like warhammer?
4:02 Like these guys are the clone army of the republic but their template was a space marine
*okay the answer is a begrudging yes
I think everyone is inspired by everyone :)
Stellaris pulls stories and ideas from almost all science fiction. From direct references to themes. They are very open about it.
Necrophage sort of approximates Warhammer space Marines a bit better imho. But yes all the good tropes done well is Stellaris at its best.
literally the prythorn scrouge endgame crisis is just the yuuzhan vong invasion from star wars legends, and thats okay. i like random completely different bits of sci fi just kinda thrown into a melting pot. you can have star trek federations and warhammer 40k fanatic xenophobe empires in the same ring and thats a bunch of fun
@@sovietunion7643 YES! and basically the Stargate Goa'uld (Necrophage) or the Borg (Driven Assimilator) could be elected President of the Galaxy if they play their cards just right. They're in the same federation with the Star Wars Clone Army btw.
Execute order 66
Amazing
Thank you! :)
Woo-hoo! Another video to consume!
Thanks Ariel! Hope you enjoyed!!
Kamino? It's not a system I'm familiar with...
Sontar-HA!
*hedge-EM-uny
So I actually specifically checked this, and Amercian and English pronoucation is different... I went with the English iirc
@@TheRedKing you english people speak weird but i guess it fits the kingdom aesthetic
Me. I made them.
:( they just get offed after all their hard work?
Love the way you pronounce tithes lol
Thanks! :)

Whoever wrote this doesn't know what the word fossil means. xD
👀 context?
But why this army is weak in game!
unique pop system, however, pops is the most vital part of your empires.
But it's cheap!!

Meh, all the clones are probably called "Gary".
