>>336919578
pls preorder.
>>
>>336919578
Hope so

I'm only wondering, can you create civilisation and keep them in ''storage'' or share them around?

I want to make a game with the Zerg vs the Tau vs the Bene Gesserit vs The Empire. etc.

Reminder that region locked keys can be bought for as low as 15$ with a free VPN

>>336919720
You can store them. I'm not sure about the sharing thing though I'd assume it would be a simple file transfer to share them.
>>
>>336919720
Yes you can create many custom races and put them all together into your game.

I only get mad about piracy if people try to morally justify it (unless they are poor, then I kinda get it)

If you like a game enough to spend some real time on it then it benefits you and everybody else in the long run to actually spend money on it since the devs will be able to deliver more of what you like. Pirates are riding piggyback on everybody else.

If you pirate just to save money, even if you can afford it, and not for some self-deluded moral reason, then that actually doesn't bother me so much, because at least you are being honest
>>
>>336922853

Its the time of game vidya gamers have been begging for literally for years. An open sandbox galaxy simulator where you can pit custom empires against each other in a grand simulation of war and politics.

tl;dr, you can finally settle the argument of would win, the Federation or the Galactic Empire.

Of course there is going to be hype. Its why people got hyped for Spore, and why they were so angry when their dreams were cruelly crushed. Pls don't fuck this up Paradox.

>>336923273

Depends on the definition I suppose. There are always glitches and things that could work alot better that get fixed/changed as players find them or give feedback about mechanics.

Nothing totally game breaking, though I am sure we will here the howling cries of "Feature X is OP, nerf plox" to "Feature Y makes the game to easy" and so on.

Johan isn't walking from house to house with a gun to force people into buying dlc

All games Paradox has released in later years have been complete, though at times buggy. Their dlc policy makes it possible for the devs to continue working on their games years after the release, I really don't see why some people are so pissy about this. You can get all DLC for a 75 % discount at the start of every new release.

I don't think they allow you to play as the cosmic disaster events anon.

I guess this case is different because it's a totally new IP and we have nothing to compare it with. But with Paradox sequels they always release the game lacking features compared to the previous, that gets added in with DLC.

You're not understanding anon, what you're calling unnecessary details are shit that any developer worth their salt would just consider things you would need to have your game be complete. These things are not expensive to create, they're not particularly time consuming either since there's never even animation for the vast majority of the cosmetics, just still portraits and textures.

The very idea that you think the only options are for them to be paid DLC or for them to not exist is repulsive.
>>
>>336923748

Paradox are not "so reviled" when you compare them to, Activision, EA, Ubisoft or Bethesda. Hell, after the fuck up that was Beyond Earth, I would say 2K and Firaxis are also more reviled.

I wouldn't say they're reveiled. They make quality games, just people don't appreciate the business policy, especially since they're one of the few in the genre industry making these games.

Yes. Robot/Droid/Synth pops have completely different stats to regular biological races. They also don't reproduce by having a food surplus per planet, they're built in the same way buildings are and consume energy once they're active.

Literally given almost 100 different racial skins and 5 different types of ship design at release.

Complains that he has to spend 4.99 to unlock 10 more skins and a new ship type.

srsly dude. This is DLC done correctly. Its not a pay to win deal like EA does with its shooters where you can spend 20 bucks to get an edge on the competition. Its a bunch of cosmetic changes and/or adds to the game. Plus, in Multiplayer everyone plays with the Hosts' DLC even if they themselves don't have it.

You are literally bitching about a for profit company wanting to make some profit. I have no problems with this so long as its not in your face jew tactics where you buy the base game but critical modules you NEED to have for it to function are DLC. That is not the case here.

Actual lategame is still pretty much a complete mystery.

>>336924584

The galaxy fills up surprisingly quickly, the game tends to turn into more typical grand strategy mid-game where empires and mega-alliances compete for more systems.
>>
>>336925047

Why? This game doesn't have a story. And a lot, coverage of this game has been pretty throughout.

It depends on whether the game allows you to create different portraits for different leader types of the same species ie warboss generals, freeboota kaptins, grot scientists etc.
