My PET OVERLORD Destroys Empires! | Full Overlord Playthrough Stellaris 3.4 

In my head canon the reason you are a vassal is because your dyslexia kicked in and you miss read the contract terms they gave you.

Paradox designing the quantum catapult: "I heard you like jump drives so we added some jump drives to your jump drives. Exept now it's system sized."

The ending with the fleets of the entire galaxy coming together gave me some serious Mass Effect vibes, with Commander Shepard leading a united galaxy to Earth for the final confrontation with the Reapers. Amazing

For the Declaring war on yourself bug, check your vassals defensive pacts. There may be a conflict with the "join vassals wars" because they may be getting pulled into the war against you which is pulling you in on the wrong side of the war.

It was very cool to see all the fleets of the galaxy coming together to fight the Scourge. I've never seen that before in Stellaris, and it's really great.

30:00 Cheerfully declares war: "Overlord, FETCH!" This made me giggle.

Hey lath, I'm gonna leave a comment and a like for the algorithm. I do have a request if you are looking at comments. If you are super super busy. It is fine, you do not need to do this buuuut... I demand pet content if you are working on long playthroughs. Bribe us with pictures of your exotic pets! We love the pictures :D I think what we have seen up till now has been frogs, snakes, turtle(?), Spiders... Perhaps your ant colony next? It's absolutely fine if you can't.

When I last played, my allies genuinely helped me multiple times; in one scenario they intercepted a marauder fleet in my territory, in other situations they actually joined my fleets AND attacked from various flanks on empires I was at war with. For some of the very first times in Stellaris, I honestly looked at some of my allies and wanted to defend and keep them as allies PURELY because I actually liked them

you know, that "A Broken Empire" event, I'm starting to think it's pre-determined by the game so that you always have a form to escape free from the overlord in the imperial fiefdom start

So.... when are we getting an animated Lathrix? For future Lathrix.. I really would love to see it!

Thank you for the Stellaris full playthrough

Lathrix: Look at me, I am the overlord now. Look at me. LOOK AT ME. *I,* am the overlord, now!

Scholariums are kinda op D: who knew in a game about technological superiority that allowing people to supercharge their technology while being safely protected by a number of empires would be so good!

Stellaris is a series I wish to see continued in the future.

I know your theme is being the 'good' guy Lathrix, but I've gotta say I was not prepared for "I love this portrait cuz it looks like they are in pain- and at the same time they're adorable :D!" and that really just fuckin sent me for a good minute

I adore that they've added and expanded vassal mechanics, it was such a fun part of EU4 that you could start as an OPM amidst larger empires, or as a vassal of one to be safe but controlled, trying to break free and figure out how to overcome the Very Hard AI's inherent numerical advantages through good old human inventiveness.

I love how Hyper Relays allow the road-building itch to be well-scratched. Getting them much earlier than Gates means they will get deployed abundantly. You can even lay out speedways to Gate sites so you'll have a proper hub-and-spokes layout, should you desire. Thank you for the playthrough, Lathrix!

With all of the mercenaries and vassal types, I’m exited as to the possibilities of a very feudal galaxy.

Man, who knew that Stellaris could be wholesome

This might not be the place to make an Overlord reference, but the backstory of this empire reminds me of the relation between Fluder Paradyne and Ainz Ooal Gown.

The galaxy engages in jolly cooperation

I adore we're still getting new DLCs in this game, especially liking these thematic ones. And thank you Lathrix for covering it all, it's always darn amazing to see.

Stellaris is *still* a series I wish to see continued in the future. And Hyper relays really are a great inbetween of hyperlanes and gates

YAY Lath has blessed us with new content. Was looking forward to how broken this can be.

I've also had a bug involving the relay's where if a fleet jumps in during a war, they strangely don't attack and act as though they were a starbase and had shoddy accuracy when engaging in the fight.

By the time it got to those battles near 1:48:00 in the video, it was getting impossible to tell which side was truly the Scourge, that flood of ships from the allies was crazy!

A new video of yours always makes my day. Thanks again for this.

1st of many full playthroughs for overlord I hope! Can’t wait!

Thanks for talking about your usual settings! I'd asked about that in a previous video's comment section and I appreciate your taking the time to go over them :)

love to see new stellaris videos come across my feed! look forward to more videos on Overlord!

I love all of these vids. Please keep up the good work man.

Always happy to see another full Stellaris playthrough. Definitely something I want to see more of in the future.

Loving the new hyper relays and quantum catapults, makes travel that much more interesting and attainable

Comment for the algorithm and to just say I love the full playthrough videos and appreciate the time and effort you put in to them.

Been waiting for another playthrough!!!! Thank you good sir!!!

Hooray for further Stellar full playthroughs! Now this is the kind of content I wish to see on my feed!

As always Lathrix delivers a fun and engaging stellaris video. Thank you for the entertainment and for keeping up the full playthroughs.

Really enjoying these playthroughs and commenting for the algorithm. Keep it up!

Watching these are helping me get better at the game, grand strategy games were never my style but after watching you and playing more and more trying to learn, I have a lot of fun playing! Thank you for all the effort you put into your videos, you’re appreciated ❤️

So neat to see all the vessels come and support you! Thanks for a great video!

Thanks for the playthrough! Awesome as always!

Gotta love the full playthroughs, even if the algorithm doesn't love them! Good luck to you and happy spacefaring

I normally don't watch your Stellaris vids, but this was a true beauty - I watched in a single sitting which is rare for me and 2 hour videos

Lath: “What’s your obsession with food? I’m going to change these…” *10 minutes later* “Oh a crisis. We ran out of food…”

Please keep the long-form videos coming! Also, I hope you and yours start feeling better soonest!!

Ahh yes more stellaris to watch. Love watching your stellaris. Thanks Lathrix Not a good time to watch exams are on me and have no time.. BLOOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD

Really love these full playthroughs!

Love these full playthroughs

I was thinking this afternoon when is lath gonna post, always amazing with the long playthroughs. They are a pleasure to watch.

Loved the video! New DLC looks great.

Been waiting for a while for this, very fun to watch

Dude I love these videos keep it going i enjoy them immensely.

Lathrix supreme Overlord of the Galaxy from vassal to Emperor long may he reign."I am Ozymandius King of Kings look upon my works ye mighty and despair."

They added some Mercenary Enclaves capacity to some underpowered civics ( Barbaric Despoilers and Warrior Culture both give 1 for example ), so you can really push them as a way to powerup your empire somewhat early depending on your style. Although, Paradox capped the research dividends they give to 5k, because that part was a bit silly.

So the Hyper Relays and the Quantum Catapult are, as I currently understand, a variation of the Stargate from the TV series.

I was waiting for this video so much! =D Something funny about Bulwark subjects, if you build the Overlord building that syhpons basic resoucers, the subiside you need to pay them reduces significantly. Its very usefull

I love how you can not only manage to turn the AI totally to your will Lath, but manage to make war on yourself, It is both Brilliant and Derpy at the same time, its what I love about your content :D

As someone who likes this series and would love to see it continued I'd still find it better for everybody to get some sleep And mabe straighten their posture and grab some water

Another great playthrough. I really enjoy all of them, and enjoying your continued commitment to create content - especially in the Stellaris universe. And another note - some of the most amazing playthrough for me have been the ones with the Mega Engineering Mod, which I also enjoy myself a lot. Have you considered after you completed a playthrough, to do another followup episode loading up either the final save, or multiple saves during your playthrough and explain a bit deeper or reflect on your empire build etc.? I think that could be interesting to see how you build the planets, which mega structures you have, the crazy output etc. Plus you will have an "easy" way of adding additional content on your channel of an already existing playthrough. You might also learn something from reflecting on your own playthrough 😊

My first playthrough was Imperial Feifdom. Aquatic authoritarian slavers. I took over a machine empire to turn them into my own vassal scholarium. very fun

Been waiting for a 3.4 playthrough!!

Cheers for the video bud, keep em coming!

I've been waiting for this one. You did pick the same start as MATN, but I can't blame you, since that's really the sensible way to dive into the new mechanics.

Lathrix video on my birthday? Well this was the best day I've had this year, now it is cemented as this decade

comment, interaction! love the playthroughs Lath, and I'm glad you're enjoy making them!

Finally have time to watch this through, I can't wait!

Can’t wait for this to come out on console in 2028!

oh dear, hope the sickness alleviated quickly, love this series

Always happy about more full playthroughs

this is such an interesting update for the game, Im so looking forward to seeing what kind of empires and role play you'll do with the new vassal system!

awesome work, Lathland!

I love your stellaris content!

Been waiting so long for this

I love these full playthroughs I can only imagine how much work these videos need. So here ist a comment for the algorithm :)

For the record, meritocracy fully works here. You show your scientific ability and merit, you get promoted.

57:20 Love yelling at the screan so you reatroactibely hear me with the extra districts in the orbital ring

I wondered if Lath would find the exploits or play as the developers intended :) Didn't take long to find out. Nice to have a free bunker bot upgrade from the lord. Also I can imagine another Lath super defensive run using a bulwark 😁😆. Something in the spirit of the massive defence starbases which kept the crisis out.

Is it just me or is the view/like- ratio of about ~20% for the full playthroughs pretty high?

I've been looking forward to this!

thank you very much for making these! I cant afford the game and obviously the dlcs too but i love the stories the game creates. I wont be able to play the game myself in a while but thanks to your full and well edited playthroughs iat least can be partly involved in the fandom. Again, thank you very much Lathrix!

Yep. That united galaxy moment did make me smile.

Fantastic Video as Always

Omg your still making videos you were my favorite RU-vidr when I was young so glad to see your doing good man 😁🙂

In order for you to get the end of the scourge event you have to do the galactic vote for focus the scourge. Its the same for all the other end game crisis as well

Awesome video thank you for the hard work

YES finally. I was waiting for this the whole time

Ooooooh I've been waiting for this ! First Overlord ! 1st of many I hope

Great video as always

Another excellent video! Good Job!

Well, I'm pretty sure I should not have noticed a new lathrix video while at work. woops.

great content lately!

Long video for the long video god! I also love the 10 million ships all coming together to bomb one world. :)

Commenting for the Algorithm! Love these Stellaris videos, always make my day to see these pop up in my feed

Lath is the only person where I watch stellaris keep it up lath

Been eagerly anticipating this.

Gaslighting a galactic empire into thinking they own you whilst simultaneously using them as your contractually obligated slave army.

Nice. Been waiting for this.

Thank you Lathrix

Finally got time to watch!

i do love the overlord expansion. i have played 6 games now, and have been having consistent fun in Stellaris for the first time in an long long time.
