Which of the four Legendary Paragons do you hope to unlock first, and why?! Let me know below... If you want to pick up the Galactic Paragons DLC you can do so here: play.stellaris.com/TheRedKing
Sometimes when playing the game, you start to only see the numbers and functions; it's almost hard to force yourself to read flavor. That's what makes these so great.
I love how you manage to connect the dots between one plot point and another. I totally missed the possibility of Skrand and his people being attacked by the Unbidden
It's truly amazing to me that Paradox is still updating the game and is also so active in the community with sponsorships and everything. Love your videos, keep it up!
Thank you!! Yes I tend to agree, i've often viewed DLCs a bit like a subscription cost and you just pay to support the development of the game. It's great to see that development continues, it's a wildly different game to how it was back in 2016
If the Beholder truly can transform a species into one capable to manipulate the Shroud, they'll inevitably end the universe, because every Shroud powered phenomena you create enlarges every present black hole.
with the right mods and research you can i have a mod that adds in every planet and moon we have in real life to a sol system and made them all Gaia worlds after using another option from the same mod to increase their size to at least 30 the only issue is a few now overlap on the system map but they all work fine and are the core system of the custom empire i made for that system
Me in my mind when I come across sharpbeak’s race: “Oh no their hot!” May my hours in mass effect get me a tall military space bird GF. …ahem… Now on a more serious note, I would totally be down to being the head researcher that practically live on there ship with them to study them and record their race’s history. I hope when you brought up cloning sharpbeak’s race, you actually start growing pops of them in the player’s empire, I’d be quite sad seeing this race go extinct.
For some reason, the lore of the Paragons-with Red King's immersive narration-makes me tear up. Bittersweet and makes you longing for more. You're awesome, King!
That Avian paragon totally had some drip! 👌😎. Exakeides really similar to house Atreides, Exakeides! Exakeides! ✊✊✊. 35:08 Hesitations is Defeat! The Beholder kind of reminds of The Witness ships from Destiny 2 and also the name 🤣
If I go psionic route, I always makes sure that if I have keides or sharpbeak, I always make them chosen. Just to make sure they are with me forever 😅 never got the plant lady or obelisk tho.
I have a suspicion that if you play Life Seeded, you have a way higher chance of meeting plant lady, just like how playing Galactic Doorstep gives you a super high chance of seeing Sharpbeak Because I think when I played Life Seeded, the plant lady event happened insanely quickly, so it's my suspicion
It would require three commander slots for Sharpbeak, Beholder, and Zadigal, an official slot for Grey, and a scientist slot for Azaryn Keides luckily can be turned into whichever one you need the most This is def one heck of a council though I've not gotten more than 3 of them in one go, Sharpbeak, Keides, and Grey I believe I found Azaryn twice, ever, and literally haven't seen the Beholder yet
It seems that Azaryn learned from Isshin Ashina because she knows that hesitation is defeat. Maybe that's why she was disappointed when you said that you wouldn't take another life to save your own. She wanted you to say yes because you would do well to kill without hesitation. Or maybe she's just a pacifist, but that seems boring compared to my idea.
The Talon's and the Formless working side by side is the most epic telling Curator that I Traxidus of the Forgotten Realms bare witness. When Zadigal and Skrand met in the war room there was an uneasy cold pressure within the room. It had only been a few days since the first sightings of the faceless ones had returned, and our King called for his royal court. When Zadigal spoke Skrand clicked his talons onto the round table, almost tearing the very metal underneath. His eyes never left Zadigal, yet he soon came around as the story of Zadigal fighting his children was one of complete astonishment. It had been known that Skrand's people once lived around galactic core where the Eternal Throne laid within the heart of our galaxy. Having faced many oppositions they left to find a home in the outer rims of the galaxy, but to his shock Zadigal didn't wish for them to stay so near as that would have attracted them to his homeworld that so many try and seek. Influencing the history of Skrand's people through a series of psionic messages, the great leaders of his people took to the stars in hopes of finding a new home. However within the decades the past the formless children traced the psionic ripples throughout the galaxy, and like a moth attracted to the dazzaing lights they truck Skrand's people without warning. Zadigal swore to Skrand that his people will be avenged, and that he is sorry for the pain his children have caused, yet not one more Talon child will face the nightmares that his people faced eons ago. With the Skrand filled with vigor, and our king rising up to marshal his knights into battle these two Legends flashed their weapons high into the air where our King talked about the bonds of brotherhood carrying the day. Though as a Scribe of the Forgotten Realms, it saddens me that in the ensuring battle I was lost to the rifts of time and my experience was one of many great sightings of such titans. Maybe in this new universe I can observe and give insight towards these humble empires eager to here of these tall tales.
And clearly, quite a dangerous possibility. And clearly, quite a dangerous possibility. And clearly, quite a dangerous possibility. And clearly, quite a dangerous possibility. . . .
I will admit that Stellaris is the first game in years that has gotten me to feel emotions. You build an empire and your choices affect both you and the galaxy. Taking in fleeing refugees because your empire is kind but strong. Smaller empires and pre-ftl species that reach out for help or to simply say hello. As you grow stronger, you become the protector or destroyer of entire civilizations. Your own personal morals affect how you play the game, letting you create what you consider a utopia. It's a good game, and I've enjoyed it.
I'm late to the party,and haven't played Stellaris in years, but I apparently still know how Paradox writes. My thoughts when listening to Skrand's story veered towards "are they going to settle them somewhere? Keep them on the ship? $5 says they didn't screen for diseases." And, lo and behold..
Glad you're enjoying it, ads sometimes seem luck of the draw but you do seem to get served more on the longer videos. I can only place them, but not choose when they run and even if I don't place them, RU-vid places them for me...
Of the four, Gov, general, admiral, scientist I think i'd like fit the Scientist tag the best. Hopefully with some sort of archeology trait or a surveying one. Maybe with a boost to unity if put in the "grand storyteller" position on the council :)
So I was playing a cheating game, just fooling around, spawned the beholder and gave them the chosen one trait. Sometime approximately a hundred years later I get an event to install the beholder as ruler in my empire so of course I say yes, now the beholder is my ruler, he isn’t leading the murmuring monolith and in fact no leader can be selected for it now, and best of all the Beholder had a son who is the heir of my empire: The Savant.
I recommend using a bigger galaxy mod that increase the amount of star systems, i am currently playing a modded game with the mods stated and a 2000 star system galaxy, one of them is real space mod 3.8 and various graphics/scaling mods that enhance/overhaul the graphics and planet diversity immensely. The base game is very lacking in realistic solar system and galaxy graphics i prefer realistic sci-fi and and thus extremely dislike Star Trek or Doctor Who, arguably bad sci-fi both and both are very boring
Man I didnt add this to my collection yet because Paradox decided the latest DLC for Crusader Kings 3 should be $29.99. I bought it. But this does not set a good precedent for the future. $30 for a DLC? Paradox is losing sight of the path for the greed. I also heard this DLC divided the community. Some say the bonuses and new system is cool. But most say the 7 leader cap and the fact you need to waste about 4 of them for your council and use the remaining for governors, scientists, and admirals. Oh! And sector governors no longer apply! Now you need a governor for each planet. I hope the cap goes much higher than 7.
My personal point of view regarding the cap is that it's fine; I think people forget you don't NEED a gov. on each planet and it does create an interesting balance when it comes to including Admirals. You now have to decide between Gov. boosting eco leaders, or military admirals. I quite like the choice personally. You can increase the cap to 11? I think with civics/traditions etc. and you can go over the cap similar to a starbase cap if you can afford it. Regarding the pricing of DLCs ultimately people vote with their wallets, if the price is to high or the quality not good enough then make the choice not to buy it. I tend to view it a bit like a subscription cost, (I played WoW for years) so i don't mind paying $20 every 4 months or so if that's the price of them continuing to develop the game. I appreicate that it's not for everyone though.
The council members are fully occupied with their jobs? I thought only the ruler was and the rest could operate as regular scientists, governors, admirals, and generals?
@@spode2091 i think of it as theres still a gov' but these are the particularly special ones of noteworth with traits and all, same with admirals and generals
Yeah, that sudden wormhole in myhome system caught mecompletely off guard... but the Relic World at the end was pretty useful, especially considering how far away it was (even if you have to use jumpdrive for best effect)
