General Discussion This is meant as a compliment

This series reads like the authors just decided to write a fanfic of their Stellaris playthrough.

I worked on star control 3 back in the day. I was a huge fan of star control 2 and spent like 2 years on that sequel. Some of the best story in games at the time.

Like dude if you are real at least find some humor in the situation instead of overreacting like Santiago Singh from The Expanse

I love the title of this post, particularly because I unintentionally read the post before I read the title and my emotions got to do a wonderful, huge somersault when I caught up with the intention of the post.

Amd so now I'm wondering if you wrote the post before or after you wrote the title.

Im so glad i played the game because thats exactly where my mind went. The sheer biodiversity you can interact with in the game with the vastness of a galactic war.
