When even the devs think you might be making a mistake

Generally when Stellaris tells you not to do something, you should probably listen.
__________
The Shroud, introduced in Utopia, is an immaterial realm of pure psionic energy outside of the physical universe. All sentient species are linked in some way to the Shroud, however only a few will achieve the psionic ascension necessary to draw on its power directly

The game: "Do not do this."

The player: "But, I must."

[TheFirstMantoDie]

So, you're telling me I get insane buffs for 50 years but after that I got to face the consequences of my actions?
*Picks Become Crisis*
CHALLANGE ACCEPTED

I had a game in which I played a megacorp. I had branch offices on every planet of the two empires that surrounded me. Turned out they both had the 'Fear of the Dark' origin. I was so confused that the "Captain Holt: Oh no" scene from Brooklyn 99 best described my feelings.

I once played a nice megacorp empire in a multiplayer rp game. They couldn't see evil, and just wanted to give cookie to everybody to become friend.
Well, they've tried to be friend with end of the circle.
RIP Smol Gloobee, you were too pure for this galaxy

[kyltredragmire]

I wish the shroud entity this spawns had a better chance of destroying the galaxy. I have never seen one capable of taking out a fallen empire.

When you play Knights of the Toxic God just to get this.

[_Crystalmeth]

Blokkats are arriving at my galaxy soon, no reason not to

[spotkill]

Accidentally hits enter key without reading the window.

[damobeck]

I think AI should pick this more often.
Maybe add advanced options in the difficulty menu where you can choose the AI’s chances of pulling stuff like this. Bump it from 1/100 to 1/20 or even 1/10

[thesharkflys]

I never got the chance to see that, now im curious.

[bognog]

Don't worry, chances are it'll die before it hits you, and even if it doesn't, it'll be weak enough it'll be easy to kill.

[eyepatchonmyear]

Thats why you need dark matter for your aethrophasic engine

[idkwhattoputhere]

BUT THIS IS THE WILL OF THE WORM! THE WORM LOVES US AND WE LOVE THE WORM WHAT WAS SHALL BE AND WHAT SHALL BE WAS, GRAVITY IS DESIRE!

[Acadeimos]

Stellaris please update the Federation’s End. And pirates. It still says pirates are attacking my trade lanes, but you removed the trade lanes, so all I get are jank popups

[mali]

I was playing a modded game which was basically a one single planet run. It was hunderests of years of gameplay. I probably don’t have to tell you what happened

[Saiko]

Im ngl with a name like end of the cycle i had always imagined it being a fourth wall break ending to stellaris, where the empire you play as actively trying to break the “never ending cycle” that is the game itself, that way the people of the galaxy can be free from the chains that is the simulation or the player.

[kitaisuru]

Pick that shit then take Nemesis and invade the Shroud
Oh I WILL bring forth the end, one way or another lol

[Hwhwuehusbsbs]

Stellaris the dnd experience running an empire

[alexandruscarlat]

Those economy bonuses are nothing compared to what a virtual ascension can provide

[StegoAqua]

And this doomsday pupper of an entity is getting an overhaul!
