I bought a bunch of the dlc and I’d forgotten how to play oh my God this game
My gameplay loop:
I’m gonna try to really figure this game out this time.
oh yeah, we’re expanding our influence
heh, my fleet is coming along nicely.
first contact: “Die xeno scum”
I am killed

I play on easy mode with a huge galaxy and like 6 bots. By the time I have to fight it’s usually way too easy which is fun.
I’m 40 with a job and a shitload of organizing to do. I can’t have a months long play get ruined at the end.
Just got the DLC that allows for the ‘Shared Burdens’ feature to make a more proper communist empire. After having played two games where I lost pretty handily to the crisis, I finally understand how the economy works and am on my third go. Funnily enough, I started right next to a system named Sol, with appropriate humans inhabiting, and I’ve had fun playing around with that: my first go through with that save I tried to let them be their own thing, this time I just took over.
I have over 700h in Stellaris. Wanna give it a go soon again. 4.3 seems to have been a pretty succesful reboot of the economy.
I only play it on easy and never figured out the economy
Stellaris is the only paradox game I can get into, because I don’t have to start with an entire already existing state
Also my latest play is as robots and I know nothing. Tips welcome.
I always found that creating your civ was really exciting and then it went downhill from there lol

Just explore stuff and attack early, every metal not spent on building fleet is a metal going to some useless healthcare (it also gives influence to build bases, so it’s still good idea to go to 20/40 ships immediately, even if you trying to peace out)
Also gestalt robots is the coziest play, cause your guys don’t change
