I mean look up how fucking smug and in denial they were while SOTS2 came tumbling down. Probably a textbook case on how the I DO IT FOR FREE we hear round here is bullshit since a group of paid coders can turn just as feral.

Hrrm so you pick from hyper lanes, warp engines or wormholes and stick with that for the entire game. Oh hello my favourite part of sots without an obtuse smug game ossified around it.

Looks pretty good and oh hey there is a little depth to the map so it isn't pure 2d.
The only person I've seen so far playing the game is Quill and I can't stand him.
I watched him play some of the game to get some of the gist of it but he was too busy being a fuckboy to actually demo the game (spent forever making LOL SPACE CATS instead of playing, somehow even managed to fuck that up by picking slavery as his race's agenda and then setting his race's attitude towards slavery as negative... GG TOOLBOX)
Also holy fuck this whole time I thought he was some autistic 19 year old. Then I saw him for real in the video and it turns out he's older than me and looks like Hodor with a neckbeard. Jeeeeeeeeeeesus.
This looks like everything I've ever wanted AND it's releasing on my fucking birthday.
I fell specials.
My characters are Frank Lowe and Mel Cousins. I also play as CORION OS, the AI and Brainstorm the borg.

Q: Why does everyone assume I’m a pervert just for wanting to play as a cat girl?
A: Because they’re degenerate cocksuckers who cannot fathom that another person might have pure intentions in wanting to play as the cat girl master race. Their wish fulfillment fetish-tier races like elves, aasimars, goliaths, and hobgoblins are perfectly fine in their mad, lust-filled minds, such that the purity and perfection of cat girls burns at their evil perverted hearts.

I watched him play Hearts of Iron 3 once
He tried to invade his own country and then gave up strategically important ports and cities without a fight. And he completely neglected both the air force and the navy. And he did more but dear lord why I stopped watching right there and then

Setting the tool box, now bloodied, back on the table; I went to heal myself with a medkit. I clubbed myself in the head with that too.
I've come a long ways from asking how to switch hands.

so cKnoor and this guy Wiz or whatever (who i've heard Arumba talk about a bunch, I am a big strategy fan) made basically a let's play (in Paradox headquarters of course) where they played as mushrooms who just wanted some friends and I am really hyped right now

I require links.
Also threw in the extra dollarydoos for spiders. The thought of maybe giving someone a panic attack in multiplayer games is worth it.
If there isn't a mod to disable filthy clothes havers so it is a galaxy full of pink blobs and memnarches* fighting snapping turtles I will be sad.
*Four legged fungus ball with little arms sticking our under the forelegs looks so much like him!
Oh here is a list of known species portraits other than pre-order rewards for reference all are animated a bit in game and there is colour/clothes variation within a species keep in mind:
Next pay day I'm definitely going to pick this preorder up lmao
The character profiles look really well done, and I can only imagine them getting better

<hg|work> why do we unban people
OOC: Shaps: pizza status: fucking delivered
I don't usually pre-order a game but considering the amount of gameplay I've seen from the developers, and how I generally trust the developers in their games.
There's a lot of gameplay footage coming out that shows everything working pretty great.
And not pre-prepared footage. Just raw streams of people playing the game without errors and stuff.
I'm late to the P-dox party so I've never gotten to experience the releases you're talking about, but this looks solid to me. Maybe I'll eat those words later but the gameplay that they're showing off scratches an itch so good I'm willing to take the risk.
I've been watching the Blorg playthrough on their quest for friendship and the guys' sense of humor is really great.
"Why didn't we just go robotics and invent our own friends?"
"Well we tried building robots but they didn't like us either."
"Maybe blorg science isn't advanced enough to understand friendship."
"Yes, we don't completely understand friendship having never experienced it, we just know we want it."

Just maybe
Paradox learned from those other poor releases, and is planning to make this one a flawless one?
It's certainly possible, they seem to be putting in a lot more effort for it
I mean I don't mind a disastrous release so long as the game is good. Magicka was absolutely excellent despite its release, so even if they fuck it up if the game is good they can be forgiven.

Nah man, we figure shit out by just fucking it up. It makes for the best stories about awful strategies and games becoming broken when one player figures out some key element of gameplay.
actually that sounds amazing, I've never done that kinda thing before
I always watch let's plays or tutorials years in advance of playing
I'll PM you and shit

We've played some games of Endless Space and Dominions way long ago when a couple people were brand new to the games and it was fucking hilarious. Even the experienced players played like garbage and everything was broken.
That time we tried to play The Guild together and everyone ended up just sending all their people to eachother's towns to assassinate eachother left a giant circle of murders and revenges happening while only a few people actually made any money.
According to the developers its possible for you to research Sentient AI (which is considered a dangerous tech), create Synthetic Pop's and eventually make the Synthetic Pop's the dominate and main race in your empire, essentially becoming a Machine Empire of sorts.
Which will turn bad should your Synthetics declare independence and rebel.
The way the factions within your government work is a really fuckin' cool idea. If you mismanage shit you can end up creating more opponents for yourself.
The dev's indicated that they intend your Empire's populations to be a real constraining factor for very large empires that chose to expand/conquer a lot of territory and planets. With large empires having to contend with many groups of pops wanting certain things, and having the power to get it.
It also somewhat encourages having smaller empires as well, since its much easier to control a small empires than a vast once.
Yeah I'm watching them divide their holdings up into smaller sectors and appointing governors over the different areas of space rather than try to micromanage everything all at once.
