Miroslavs can into space

[Sergarr]

research is randomized (described as like "a random loot system").

I bet this is going to cause so much rage from ironman people when they repeatedly get shit-tier technology...

At least there hopefully won't be any of that "lucky nations" BS.

Official HoI4 -> Stellaris converter confirmed. Now you can recreate the historical events that led Hitler to flee earth on his flying saucer and begin a new reich on mars.

Posting out of interest.

Well if you get unlucky in research, nothing prevent you from *stealing* others tech! ( i think i saw something like that in the interview thingy ).

Also posting to watch.

What the hell, PTW.

You can do that in Distant Worlds.

[Shadowlord]

There's a lot you can do in Distant Worlds, but... no multiplayer. And the price. Paradox at least runs good sales on everything but the latest DLC or two.

[Shadowlord]

Don't they all get killed by Samus? (I've never played them (Heresy, I know))

[BFEL]

[spoiler]You blow up their homeworld in Corruption,

Piracy: Not a life choice.

[Retropunch]

Well, I'm talking full-blown Space Pirate stuff; specifically, the Metroid-universe Space Pirate stuff.

...it really wasn't a good idea to blow through the entire trilogy in less than a week.

Distant Worlds really does provide probably the closest you'll probably get to that. but the price. oh god the price.

I'm really hoping that Stellaris manages to be similar to CK and the like where you can't realistically take over the entire galaxy. Like all space games tend to be 'become the absolute ruler of the universe' whereas I think it'd be great if you could both play a smaller power which isn't ever going to raise to such heights.

What? Of course you can realistically take over the entire map in CK2.

World conquest in CK2 isn't especially hard.

That said, I'm really not very excited about this game. You start alone, all the AI nations start with nothing as well at approximately the same time, and the only screenshot of a map we've seen has just four nations on it. It seems like there won't be an abundance of independent nations, of various degrees of power... like you'd find in pretty much every other one of their games.

[Digital Hellhound]

I'd guess that by the mid/late-game, with more established borders and power, the civilizations will vary in power. Some kind of option to start with older, more powerful empires already there might be interesting, though.

Here's a galaxy picture someone apparently pulled from the site. Looks like plenty of space for plenty of nations.
