RE: The Obsidian/Paradox game.
I have to concur completely. I played War for the Overworld a bit and that was only about 10% more campy evil, but it already felt like far too much. It's only good as a character (cue Murray from Monkey Island) or in a self-referential, novelty way like DK. However, I could definitely be convinced that a Paradox game with Obsidian writing might turn out pretty fun.

Re: Endless expansions.
As long as they're all sizable then that's ok, although I do feel the first 2-3 will probably be stuff that kinda shoulda been put in the base game (espionage for instance).

"Next week Doomdark will return and tell you about Migration, Slavery and Purging!"

Stellaris Dev Diary #25 - Reverse Engineering and Unique Technologies

Well, it's a fairly minor feature to fill a whole dev diary, but still a cool one.

"Next week Doomdark will return and tell you about Migration, Slavery and Purging!"

Now that'll be a fun one.

This week's features: Salvage, just like Aurora

I found a link to a mirror of the video on reddit it still works at the time of this posting https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B09jVNCB7ZzOcDNEUXQ2V3NEV2M/view

I'm guessing a lot of people will end up playing as fungoids, given their recent popularity. I know I am.

I hate to be a spoilsport, but wasn't that known since the fourth dev diary?

These wormholes can only be generated by a Wormhole Station, a type of space station that can only be constructed on the outer edge of a system. Any fleet wanting to travel will have to use the Wormhole Station as a connecting point, passing through it whenever they leave the system. The station may only generate a single wormhole at a time, forcing all ships and fleets to wait while one is being prepared. The larger the fleet, the longer it takes for the Wormhole Station to be ready.
...
Constructing and maintaining an efficient network of Wormhole Stations is vital to any species using wormholes, as it will allow sending huge fleets from one part of the galaxy to another in very short time. It also allows striking deep inside enemy territory with little warning. This great strength can also be a great weakness, as fleets are left with no means of further offense or retreat should the network be disabled through covert attacks by enemy strike-fleets.

Ugh jeez, some of those mammalian species portraits look very....yiff. It will be a pleasure to purge the filthy furries, so I guess it is working as intended.

[Drakale]

In space no one can hear you yiff

Nice, and btw they will stream Stellaris on thursday [@20.00 CET if true]. Here is the PD forum topic about it.

PS.

RELEASE DATE GET. 9th of May. Get hype.

RELEASE DATE GET. 9th of May. Get hype.

So close, yet so far. I long to touch the stars and cast down the furries lesser beings from the heavens. Or lead the Jedi, that works too.

[Majestic7]

It's coming out sooner than I thought, much sooner.

Please hold me, I'm scared. Mainly scared that it will suck despite all the hype.

[Orange Wizard]

It's a Paradox game, they always suck on release. Then we have to wait months for bugfixes and pay 40-50 dollars to get all the features they should have included in the base game.
