We get it, it’s a video game. But no one likes that kid who is really pumped to watch a bunch of women get murdered in a horror film. | ||

Memes have been invented by smart people as a way to spot not so smart people. u know what I mean? Second of all, stellaris has been, since release, an extremely lacking experience. Do not buy it. The only thing separating it from a skinner box, as is the case with most video games, is a ludicrously thick layer of decorations and some """roleplay""". The games mechanics involve almost exclusively clicking buttons in reaction to events you have NO influence over, especially in single player, but that is also the case in multiplayer. in the 200 or smth hours of gameplay I clocked in it, it was all chasing fun, no actual fun. You gradually build up a series of somewhat related numbers until one of the end conditions is met, which are: you give up, realising how futile the entire thing is, you paint the galaxy your colour and walk away feeling the entertainment equivalent of misjudging a staircase, or one day forget to continue your save, and when you remember 2 expansions later it feels better to simply restart. With the combat being 50% macro and 50% cops and robbers, and the economy game being complicated only by the means of being spread out across a lot of mildly usable UI elements, the game is won and lost entirely by your spawn location. Third of all, it's 2019, renew your Thick Skin subscription you scrrruuuuubb | ||

You're second point is actually pretty similar to my experience with EU4, if you survive the earlygame it just becomes tedious map painting either by conquest or colonization, maybe with a sprinke of "will the ottoblob attack me if I do this thing?" or "can I get the alliance with X before Y attack me and kill me in one war?". I've been afraid that Stellaris is similar in nature, but I'm a sucker for space and spaceships, so from time to time I entertain the thought of buying it. As for thicker skin, I'll try but no promises  | ||

As for thicker skin, I'll try but no promises At least the lategame threats in EU4 feel somewhat organic, as they are either historic or you can see something grow into a super power. In stellaris, they are completely manufactured. I mean ffs the lategame event is ALWAYS something just showing up out of nowhere. seriously, play something with less filler | ||

Yeah, it sucks. I loved her and cared for her a lot, but she ended up going behind my back and lying to me (besides being a shitty partner in the end). Still hurts a lot. Think I'll take awhile of being single. Nice to know I can fall in love with someone who I found amazing though. | ||
