Instead of more Stellaris devs, get the guy in charge of White Wolf here so we can ask him what the gently caress.

It was a picture from the Armenian Genocide of a Turkish official taunting a bunch of starving kids with food held out of their reach, but Wiz's av on the guy, and captioned as Wiz teasing helpless goons about Utopia.

Wiz posted:The true dev was the friends you made along the way. Out of interest, is there any real difference culturally between teams at paradox? Like I mean do the CKII team tend to be massive history buffs? Do they often end up being the most keen on doing nasty things to other players? Are the Stellaris guys the super Sci fi ones? Or is everyone really just what you'd expect from a games company. Huge nerds.

Also I wasn't really joking when I said Paradox dudes and dude ties should post here more often. I can understand why anyone may want to duck out after the fifth page of "why can't you just copy this exactly from EUIV?" but I think you guys should know we really appreciate the fact devs come here and chat to us on these dead gay forums, when you guys could be chatting on new gay soon to be dead platforms like reddit.

[MOLOKOV] The man is utterly mad -- you're playing a lunatic -- [THE RUSSIAN] That's the problem. He's a brilliant lunatic and you can't tell which way he'll jump -- like his game he's impossible to analyse -- you can't dissect him, predict him -- which of course means he's not a lunatic at all.

This is probably already something mentioned, but, I think raiding with vikings has been some of the most fun I've had so far in CK2, since it means even when I'm waiting on truce/threat cooldowns I can have my dudes go smash something. Would there be any chance of adding space-piracy (or privateering) as a similar deal, in Stellaris? Maybe raiding mining/research stations or planets for slaves or something?

I assume if you play fanatic purifier, you can go and burn down whatever you want. No diplomacy means 'in the grim darkness of the near future there is only war', right?

You still have rivals, insults, wars, and truces because otherwise the game breaks in half, you just get no positive diplomacy.

I find it funny that the game would break without the ability to insult each other.

It's the always war part. The AI is terrible at dealing with it, and imagine how annoying it would be for every one of your neighbors to be randomly sending little issues fleets around your empire all day long.

What I'd like is when the AI offers me defensive pacts or non-aggression it shows up slightly differently at the top to the AI having signed ones with other people. I tend to just ignore them and end up missing them talking to me.

If dog people let mushroom men in and I have a treaty with dog empire can the dog empire's mushroom men wander over to my empire?
