Because it doesn't rely on external infrastructure. Fleets relying on warp drive can appear anywhere in enemy space and are practically immune to ambushes. Unlike hyperspace which forces people to use specific, well known highways or wormhole tech which is entirely reliant on space stations for travel.

Using warp drives is also far cooler.

>>
>>336799203
Warp drives, or warp engines, are devices integrated into spacecraft, making them capable of a form of faster than light travel known as warp travel or warp jumping. The warp drive allows a ship to enter the warp, travelling its currents until reemerging into real space light years away from the starting point.

Thats no wormhole station son. Warp travel is the closest thing.
>>
>>336799203
There's a pretty big diffrence between warp travel in Stellaris and the warp travel in 40k. In the former, warp drives create some kinda bubble around the ship that contracts space infront of it as it travels. In 40k they just open a wormhole to the fucking Immaterium and take a shortcut. If you want the 40k kind of warp travel then I guess you could mod it in; wormhole travel without relying on space stations to generate the wormholes for you.

>>336800050
Quoting the wiki;

Fallen Empires are large and extremely powerful empires that have become old and stagnant with their societies grown inward over the ages.[1] Some of these are created when the galaxy is generated at the start of every game. They have large and powerful fleets and is unwise to start a war with them unless your fleet is of equal power and should generally be left alone. If successful at conquering a Fallen Empire, it is possible to gain advanced technology from them. Only the AI can control Fallen Empires and they are not designed to be played by a human player.
>>
>>336800050
Extremely advanced and powerful old Empires who have turned stagnate and wont expand/research anymore. They wont deal with younger races but you can piss them off by colonizing their holy world or researching dangerous technology (like AI).
>>
>>336800050
Old Empires that have stagnated. Mostly keep to themselves unless you piss them off by being too warlike or settling on their Holy Worlds.
>>
>>336790595

Is this basically europa universalis in space?

Because I don't like games THAT in depth...
>>
>>336799972
Are you really from ПMP?
>>
>>336800050
They're just old, basically dormant empires that have been around much longer than everyone else. They do get pissed and will annihilate you if you do stuff they don't like though, like researching certain potentially galaxy-dooming technologies or settling close to them.
>>
>>336800132
>no way at all to get ring worlds

>>336800132
Can you form alliances with fallen empires of similar ethos?
>>
>>336800050
Think eldar in 40k or necron tomb worlds. immensly powerfull and technologically superior beings just chilling in their own corner of the galaxy, if you wake them though, youre fucked.
>>
>>336800050
Think of them like player factions that survived the last game. Each one is at the height of its power but is suffering some huge detriment. In one of the streams (giantbomb I think) they showed one that literally couldn't expand its influence past what it already had.
>>
>>336800050
there the core worlds of once great and very old empires that have fallen apart they're very insular but have incredibly advanced technology and powerful militaries despite the lose of significant territory
comparable to great Britain losing all their colonies but still having advanced tech and Military power
if you interact with them they might start to go out and reestablish their dominance

>I'm poor as hell and I plan on spending ~$120 on some shitty butterfly knife in CS:GO

Maybe you should re-evaluate your life choices.
>>
>>336800237
I don't think you'll be able to forge alliances with Fallen Empires, but you'll be able to maintain embassies with them to try to stay on their good side. At best; they'll just treat you like the minor, undeveloped race you are. At worst; they fuck your shit up.

Apparently there are 4 diffrent types;

Keepers of Knowledge - Fanatic Materialists - The Fallen Empire dedicates itself to the hoarding of technologies that it believes should be kept out of the hands of young and irresponsible races. Pursuing dangerous lines of research will draw their ire.

Enigmatic Observers - Fanatic Xenophiles - Empires that use slaves, or purge populations may suffer the wrath of the Observers.

Holy Guardians - Fanatic Spiritualists - This fallen empire dedicates itself to the preservation and defense of its holy sites. Colonizing systems that they consider sacred is likely to incur their ire.

Militant Isolationists - Fanatic Xenophobe - Get off my lawn. (Responds very negatively to border friction).

It's 1% per pop and I think it also gives you a diplomatic penalty that the tooltip doesn't mention.

>>336800217
It looks a lot simpler than EU4. Only a few diplomacy options, no espionage system, no trade system (in the same way as EU4), less cluttered UI in general, simplified war without claims, cores, casus belli, favors, trust, and all sorts of other mechanics, etc

$120 is nothing to brag about on 4chan. At best people will laugh at you for spending money on a bad knife, at worst they will insult you for spending money on cosmetic items period.

>>336800390
Since it's tied to the pops and happiness, it depends on what kind of empire you're running.

If a planet has 15 Ugly Fucks, all the other species on the planet suffer -15% to their happiness. Which is quite a lot.

Not a problem if you're playing as mono-species empire, but tough if you want to diversify your pops.

Then there's also a negative diplomacy modifier.
>>
release when?
>>
>>336800841
Bro, if you don't spend $150 on a fucking skin, you know howmuch money you'd have for entire video games? $150! That's three brand new games, or like 50 old ones on a steam sale, or $150 worth of heroin, or the components needed to make an exit bag to end yourself. There are so many other things you could do with that money that would be more useful to you. Fuck, make a garden or some shit with it to keep you busy, you sad sack.
