That shot at 1:45:00 where Lathrix calls for assistance from his allies as his main fleet is missing in action and the entire Arsenal of Democracy arrives from the gateway is one of the most glorious sights I've seen from Stellaris

Lath saying, "We're NOT allowing our vassals to take any damage. We CARE about them.", just feels ... *shiver*

Lathrixism of the day: "(...) through our peaceful methods... Cannons are peaceful."

Bake wake up! New Lathland Stellaris Full Playthrough just dropped!

MSI: Foolish properties, you exist to further our wealth! Lathland: Declare surprise war. [Half the galaxy rises against MSI.] MSI: *Surprised Pikachu Face*

I’m a simple man, I see Stellaris play through by lathland I play it on repeat for a week 😌

_"Two hours? I can watch that tomorrow. I'll just see what the Empire is like."_ *[Two hours later]* _"Okay, now I _*_really_*_ need to get some sleep. Damn you Lathrix for entertaining us so well!"_ 😆

fun fact if two players have the opposing origins they get story elements with each other

Irradiated Tomb World habitability species... Those guys can live in Heaven and Hell but nothing in between lol

That is just the most British saying I have heard. In an angry voice, "We are going to be, well very very polite to them."😂

the introductions keep getting better ! :D

This is definitely one of the most entertaining playthroughs you've done purely because of how you really did unite the galaxy through peaceful means *and* made everyone's lives genuinely better.

Stellaris is indeed a series I wish to see continued in the future.

Man that start IS perfect for a fallen empire rp. I truly wish stellaris had "seeds" to have the same start but with different civics and stuff. I know you can share saves but it ain't the same lol

This long form content, Stellaris in general and Future Lathrixx in particular (Present Lathrixx is a bit of crusty badger) are things I want to algorithmically see in my KZfaqs

46:50 Okay, this is straight up cool what the fuck. How the hell do you get an event like this, that sounds straight out of a bloody space opera novel, on a 4x game??? This is so sweet man

While the climax with AI fleets arriving and for once being useful(apparently if you control the whole galaxy, have maxed out federation, are a custodian and evey member of community is your scholarium, whom pays you nothing back, AI can finally keep up😂. I wonder what would have been achieved if it was a different federation type then?) was cool and all, it's early game that looked awesome. For once the tiny sci-fi blocks of Stellaris fully assembled into a space opera about slaves crash landing on a planet, by chance finding a trail of a precursor civilization that gave them a chance to establish themselves, making a few friends along the way and then finally leading a rebellion against their former masters and finally finding their home planet. Yep, we've basically just watched Homeworld. No idea if these origins would become stale to me after a while, but I like them from RP PoV.

This was such a cool empire to watch! Lathrix, would you ever consider doing a series or megavideo showing an entire playthrough? It'd be really interesting and helpful to see how you manage your empires - I'm never able to get even close to as powerful as you in my games, and I'm sure I'd learn a ton watching you!

I saw Montu's "No fleet, station only" run not too long ago. But, I think the nastiest bastion fortresses are the ones belonging to psionic empires with the Zroni chain and archeo-ascension as well. Picture this, a Citadel fortress, 6 Ancient Rampart modules granting a total of +90% station hull, +120% armor and +60% armor hardening; then for the buildings it has a Target Uplink Computer for +50% weapons range, Defense-Grid Supercomputer for platform cap, a Zroni Storm Caster for our pocket neutron star (which is buffed by Archeostudies Ascension Perk to deal 10% hull damage PER DAY a hostile fleet is in system), and a Communications Jammer to further hamper enemy fleets by slowing them down and making it harder for them to escape when they realize they have walked into a death system. Then, for the platforms, with the Unyielding Traditions tree and a Strategic Coordination Center, 78 defense platforms. First is an ion cannon with a whopping 375 range to "caress" the enemy lovingly and let the other platforms know to wake up. The remaining 70 platforms are all hanger platforms acting as home base to endless squadrons of Ancient Driller Drones. Their homes are all armored with level 5 armor, nanite repair system (I had scrapbot in my game), and a reactive armor module for armor hardening. Each of these Ancient Driller Drones do -25% damage to shield, but +100% armor penetration and have +25% hull damage. Thanks to the Zroni Storm Caster nullifying shields and doing hull damage, the ion cannon sounding the alarm all the way to the system edge, the first thing an enemy fleet will encounter, long before they get in range to fire back, will be swarms of drone fighters bypassing their armor and doing bonus damage to their hull for a cumulative damage greater than tier 3 fighters.

I tried to play payback. MSI declared war on me. We peaced out because fallen empire didnt allow passage and then I had to taKe revenge on myself because i humilated the MSI before I could get my revenge in them. If you are confused reading this, that makes 3 of us. You, me and my empire in stellaris

Hello Content Overlords, this is indeed engagement and you can't tell Lathy otherwise. please give him recognition and front page appearances. Also money.

Probably one of the most dramatic and thematic final battles I've seen. Just the whole galaxy, united by you prior, coming together to drive off the threat.

Love your stellaris videos!

at 1:30:00 when you were looking at the ship design of the federation, there's what I think is a bug that everyone in the federation can make their own ship designs and build that ship, instead of only the president, which I find it really weird, when I was playing I eventually chose to only make the president (me) be able to build ships because it was getting ridiculous the fleet with so many garbage ships

This is probably my favorite Stellaris playthrough of yours. It was very engaging to see a true unification of the galaxy. Thank you for such enjoyable content!

I do love being the criminal heritage megacorp, but I really don't like how they're locked out of Hostile Takeover casus bellis while the normal not criminal violence method megacorp can use war and violence to steal another Empires property... seems a bit backwards. That on its own makes it hard to wanna be them.

You didn't have to finish the discovery tree, now there is no penalty for multiple opened tradition tree. I'd just take the survey speed and then go into prosperity or expansion

Always look forward to your full play throughs. Thanks for the vids

love your playthroughs soooo much! you skip around and don't show us all of the tiny things and show us events and fun pop ups! love your videos! keep it up!

I honestly don't know if people hate criminal heritage because it isn't meta or because it's just annoying to deal with. Also I adore how broken shackles and payback are actually different, I thought they were the same but only one has multiple species. Nice to see there's different events and all that.

Such a good playthrough. Love these videos so much, dude! Thank you!

Thank you for making these long videos! I might not always finish them the first time but I always come back.

Always love seeing a new full playthrough :D Keep up the amazing work!

Haven't watched it yet, but I've been so excited to see you play this origin! Your rp/flavorful empire building is incredible, I can't wait to see what happens!

Thanks for the long playthroughs - enjoy these too!

Listening to your Stelaris playthroughs make me feel so cosy. Thank you xo

these videos are so great, i often use them as background noise when im going to bed, and usually watch it again throughout the next day. sometimes things pop up that i didnt even register while fallinng asleep but somehow still remember anyway lol

It a shame the algorithm dislikes your full playthoughs because there are some of my favourite videos but keep up the great work making these videos we all love

I love these videos so much, and this one specifically I am incredibly hyped for :D

You are one of the only people I do everything I can to support the videos. I love Stellaris wholly and the way you play, and Stellaris is something we all want to see continued on the channel for ages to come.

Always a pleasure spending my evening, unwinding with Lathland. Keep up the good fight! Keep doing what you do!

Love the new DLC walkthrough, keep doing what you are doing, these full playthroughs are a soothing balm for my soul, thank you and have a great time lathryx

Haven’t always commented, but I love your videos especially the long form playthroughs. I wish the algorithm would start to allow for more of this type of content to flourish. Looking forward to the next one and hope you have a great time until then.

New Stellaris full playthrough. Bizarre introduction (love it). That is... glorious. Thank you for your time!

Mate, keep making these videos. I love watching you play through the different new stuff in Stellaris.

Always Amazing Stellaris Content, thank you so much for these Full Playthroughs!

Yay for new Lathrix content. Excited to see this.

I love the long full playthroughs and the way you record the videos.

Hey Lath! Love your videos man, great to see more Stellaris content :D

Yay! Love these longer play throughs

Thank you for another full playthrough, Mr Lath!

What a pleasant surprise! Hope you are doing well and thank you for this amazing piece of entertainment! I wish to see Stellaris continued in the future, please.

Love your long vids. Keep up the fight against the algorithm ✊

Long video = Love, keep up the good work Lath!

Watching you do good playthroughs is very fun since it actually requires you to make some sacrifices and to interact more with the galaxy as a whole.

amazing playthrough to watch, super fun, glad to see the roleplays

“And as my first act with this new authority, I will create a grand army of the galaxy.”

Just started your video, I love these play-throughs and I hope you keep making them. I would love to see the "all" crisis option, both with a min-maxed empire and a totally random one. If you get to pick whatever you want that can make it a bit too easy. ;)

happy to see the stellaris playthroughs again

Always love your videos Lathrix! Can't wait to see how you spread "freedom" across the galaxy!

always love the full playthroughs

This origin would be perfect for Shared Burdens. Worker's unite!!!

Love these longer vids. Thanks

I really like these single playthrough videos. Much more palatable than the massive long series you find elsewhere.

I love your full playthroughs!

I am here to fight the poison and allow you to make even cooler full playthrough videos cuz I LOVE EM

Another great video mr 'land! Keep up the good work!

Nice thumbnail on this one! I'm also out there alone enjoying running the jewels with Criminal Heritage, even if it very much overdue for some help still; getting specialist vassals really helps it out imho, though. Something you clearly enjoy having already, as well as those good new archanotech.

Really liked this one ! Very nice playthrough !

Great playthrough as always Mr. Lathrix! Keep on Dominating ;P

Lathrix, you are a treasure my friend. YOU are something I would like to see continued in the future. A long, happy future.

57:30 hype for the late medieval to become Industrial. Hope the next hour has that happen! ⛄️

Commenting to bump because this video has started my recent stellaris obsession, great video!

so gooood!!! love these playthroughs

Great video as always! Yay for Stellaris!

this could be pretty powerful as a fast expanding empire, if you can manage to keep the tech in line, because you can essentially settle ANY (maybe not tomb) planet from the get-go

2 hours of great content?! Thank you!

Love your videos! Please keep them coming :)

Thanks for the upload!~

I see that you dropper a replay and a smile appeared on my face.

Best thing in the world for me. Go to work starting with a bad day and turn on KZfaq to see a video of yours. Awesome.

Always a lovely experience to watch lath while sleeping just makes sense you know.

I do really enjoy your playthroughs and if nothing else, you deserve like for your "Minamar" voice :D

In this video, lathland became a kind of space USA: Many autonomous vassals that all they have to do is join the military alliance he made and try to pretend to be pro-equality

Our man Lathrix, the absolute pinnacle of Stellaris content creators on youtube. Thank you for all the hard work through the years.

I recommend you try a megacorp with private prospectors and broken shackles if you want to revisit this origin. I have had upwards of 10 planets in the first ~30 years, due to having the numerous species. Trade is also one of the few things that isn't hurt by the starting debuffs. It plays more towards the strengths of the origin. You can also start pacifist then easily transition into xenophile if you want to switch off liberation wars. There is also a delicious irony of rising up against an evil megacorp as a nominally more friendly megacorp

At some point, I just want to see a compilation of every time Lathrix says something evil and follows it up with, "We're the good guys!" I'm sure the compilation alone will be 5+ hours.

Always enjoy a Lath full play through. Keep it up good sirrah, liberate us from the algorithm!

Keep going! I love these videos! :D

There are quite a few good Stellaris streamers on KZfaq, but you are by far the most interesting. Your love for the game comes through so clearly. Thank you for producing this great content.

Hearing things like "everything is as it should be" is an instant flag in my mind that liberty is being squashed lol. Really good run, was a blast to watch :)

I have enjoyed this video and Stellaris is a series I wish to see continued in the future.

Can't wait to see you do the end of the greater good line cuz it's my favorite

I love what you call us at the start of a video it is always so great

one of my fav full playthrus !!

I've been waiting on this one, so excited

Great episode as always!

The timing of that hidden spawn was perfectly cinematic.

Finally! I was waiting for this!

the moment i saw the ethics together with the title something in the back of my mind screamed "no gods and no masters"
