Stellaris released 10 years ago today
Also I know some of you all running genocidal empires, I don’t judge (usually)
Also how many times have they reworked surface building, I picked it up again about a month ago and hey yeahhh let’s go read some patch notes, good times
Also at least it let me craft my berry own socialist polity



Never played it, but is that the game they had to nerf communism because it was too op and people complained about it?
That’s Victoria 3, which is made by the same studio. The main difference is that Vic 3 is set in 1800s earth, stellaris is in space.
Isn’t Vic3 basically a historical materialism simulator, and the chuds were mad that Communism was OP? If I recall, they wanted it nerfed, but that didn’t really happen.
Yeah p much. Turns out that if you make a pretty realistic model of mass human behavior and political economy, communism is a reliably good thing to do.
Paradox games has a huge CHUD audience, so I’d be very surprised if they actually told them “no”. They’re the reason that the Nazis in their WW2 game Hearts of Iron are absurdly overpowered compared to real life, because the Fash kept whining that the Soviets would always beat them.
Ah, Gotcha thanks. One day I’ll play one of these map games when I have a lot of free time lol
