If you look at the Steam page, it was developed by another (more indie) studio, and is being published through the Paradox Arc program, rather than being an actual in-house production. Super interesting to see what that means for it, and what kind of input the usual Stellaris team have had into it as well as what they may adopt from the ideas of this third party.

Also means it likely hasn't taken any actual time or resources away from the main Stellaris development, be that expansions, offshoots, or some sort of Stellaris 2, as the other commenters seem to be wanting!

How dare Stellaris "respect my time". Stellaris is my time. My time has no value. I hope this is a good "gateway drug" to get people in Stellaris and ruin their lives, I mean, bring them into the fold.

"respects your time" is like the opposite of what i want from a paradox strategy game

Montu is always quick with the news. Amazing

I'm not interested in what this new game is, but I appreciate you informing us with coverage and details about it.

Dumbed down multiplayer version of Stellaris? Not my thing. I hope they don't cancel the real Stellaris for this.

Oh god... It looks like the unholy return of Sid Meiers Starships

Woke up saw the game announcement and wondered if Montu had a video about it yet....man never fails to be on the ball

"Predominantly multiplayer focused"

Pass.

I like turn based games and this looks interesting enough to give it a shot. I just don't see myself getting this for multiplayer. This is obviously a reach-out to expand their audience. This is one of those 'we'll see'.

Stellaris fans: "We want detailed strategy game with lots of nuances"
Paradox: "Here is an uber-lite quick-game that is as barebones as possible"
Fans: "Wait, what?"

I see absolutely 0 reason why should i play this Over Stellaris when im in the the mood to play a Sci-fi 4x game.
This 100% looks and feels like a mobile game EVEN if its not a mobile game it looks like one.

I was hoping for a Stellaris 2 with a deeper economic system with many different resources/goods and a better simulated population like Victoria. I think the current pops system is the main thing holding Stellaris back and idk if they can change it without making a new game.

I just hope Stellaris to be still the main focus

Ah yes finally a stellaris game that improves on nothing, while downgrades every good feature already present in the original, while also upgrading only the online features 2 or 3 people like, I waited for 125 decades to finally see this, thank you so much for covering it pal 👍

Honestly it looks horrible to me. Seriously hope people just avoid this in order for Paradox and the team behind it to realize people just need either a Stellaris 2 or just more updates or content for 1..

(And more modding support, Idk maybe a "Modding update" or something? I model on blender and still have no idea how to add a model to the game, seems to be black magic, or purple or rainbow magic Idk..)

[furioni]

looks like a phone game, am I the only one who thinks that?

[pieterfaes]

This also seems rather reminiscent of Endless Space 2, but with Stellaris mechanics and artstyle in there and considerably shorter games.

[disnark]

This very strongly reminds me of Beyond Earth: Starships, from Firaxis. Anyone remember Starships? Anyone? No? Yeah, I thought not.

On one side i can see the appeal for this game. It's multiplayer focused and it's not gonna take your entire day to finish a game. On the other side though i can tell that majority of Stellaris players will actually *not* like and play this game. A big chunk of the stellaris population is single player gamers, they don't want forced multiplayer and the chunk that are multiplayer gamers actually enjoy the fact that stellaris does not respect your time and consumes your entire day.

I feel like the beaker resource and other fraction one may be a sort resource that you can allocate. Maybe the beaker is a number of scientists that you can commit to researching. This could be a good replacement for the time that research takes in the original game.
