I've had a few people tell me the video is not available to them in the full 1080p yet, I have no indication of this on my end but It seems like KZfaq's processing Is taking longer than expected for some device types and ISN'T telling me.. Great. Come back later If this is an issue for you and I'm sure It will be fixed as this has happened before! Sorry about this for anyone effected. :(

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

Since Hiveminds can now take Void Dwellers you can do a Terravore Habitat build where you eat literally every single planet in the galaxy

Habitats used to be more powerful than planets in the older version of the game, they've desperately needed a buff to make tall builds viable for quite a while now

I feel starved when you dont upload for awhile. I search KZfaq probably once every other day for anyone who produces Stellaris content has high-quality, personal, and in depth as your videos. Thank you so much for this content, even though the algorithm hates it.

I really like how habitats work now, it is a bit of a shame that their base habitability is so low though, so unless your void dwellers they aren't too viable until you have some solid habitability bonuses going on.

Stellaris is indeed a series what we wish to continue!

I hope you know lath that you sticking to what you enjoy and not shilling to whatever KZfaq gaming trend is most popular is the reason that as I have stopped watching other channels I still catch every upload of yours😊 keep it up Man. Much love from Australia!

You've hit the nail on the head, habitats *do* just feel a lot like regular planets now. Very expensive planets. I just wish I could choose the type of orbitals I want to build instead of being confined to system resources, it'd bring some artificiality to habitats again.

I don't care what the lizardman and robot say, this is top tier content, right here.

Stellaris is a series I wish to see in the future

Stellaris is a Series I wish to see continued in the future :D

Awesome, I've had mixed feelings about the habitat changes. It's nice to see a good demonstration of them in use.

I’d like to see this series continue on the channel :)

What do you mean, new Lathrix video just dropped? Well, I'm going to watch it very intently now because Stellaris is a series I wish to see continued in the future.

I just wanna say that these videos always inspire me in how I make and play my own empires

I love the update for habitats i always hated it when the AI spammed habitats in every system and turning what would be a quick war into an annoying slog with 6-8 habitats everywhere

“Fellow sane people-“ Lathrix I’m gonna cut you off right there, this is stellaris! None of us are sane!

Good to see you back enjoying Stellaris!

I haven’t played too much of 3.9, but there were some really good changes made. Like leader upkeep and exp reduction for going over the cap being exponential, as in it can never reach -100% exp gain anymore.

Funny hat man

Sellaris is something I wish to see continued in the future!

48:30 lathrix: finally our energy reserves in the plus! *immediately cuts to negative 300 energy*

always love your full playthroughs!

Great to see another fantastic Stellaris video! I've also been super happy with the new habitat changes, as a person who likes to play tall it's nice to see them be viable again.

Always thankfull to see more content! Thanks lath!

Took a break from Stellaris for awhile after 3.8, it's great to see all these changes, and even better to catch some playthroughs after so long! Thanks for keeping these going, Lathrix! :)

Thank you for posting full playthroughs, they're great.

Amazing series. Cannot wait to see what else you provide!

I don't have much time to play the game myself, so these runs are really awesome content ! Of course I'd like them to continue

Always get inspired by your videos to create my own empires for a run!

I hoped that you would do the run with the new habitats and so, was pleasantly surprised seeing this video. Thank you for delivering and for all your hard work in producing such a high quality content!

Welcome back from vacation! Hope you feel better soon! Always excited to watch your videos

Love the long form content man! Keep up the amazing work!

Its fantastic to see more stellaris from you Lathrix, i would be very interested in seeing more of the ideas you mentioned on how to break the game with habitats. look forward to seeing your all 3 crisises playthrough as well.

Another stellaris full playthrough, love it, hope you feel better soon lathryx

Love watching the playthroughs! Very informative for those of us who are still learning many aspects of game play. Keep them coming, please!

Love your videos man! So happy you're back in Stellaris, the long form vids are great.

While I have not tried the new system, I liked the old habitats. If you'd gotten yourself pinned in somewhere you could still get heaps of (small) planet/habitats. And you could use those station automatic pop redistribution add on to great effect. And shuffling pops is the thing that I hate. By end game there's just too much fiddly work to do.

ooga booga me increase engagement on a more serious note, ive watched your content ever since your first ftd series, and ive been loving watching you and your channel grow. I really hope youtube does more to support long form creators like you.

I appreciated that you added that feedback about the new mechanics at the end.

Haven’t had a chance to play this update yet, so thanks for the preview!

Been waiting for more Stellaris! Love the long 1-3hr videos to fall asleep to.

Always a fan of your stellaris content, it's super relaxing and really helps me decompress at the end of the day! Keep up the great work 😊

I am truly pleases to see you making Stellaris content. Its such a joy to watch one of your videos.

I’m so happy to see Stellaris content again. I’ve been using the 5 hr unedited cut for sleep lately. Cheers man. Hope you are well.

love watching the full playthroughs especialy when studing just having it on in the backround is very nice, thanks for keeping this (series?) going

Lathland: I've done nothing evil this run. John Cena: Are you sure about that?

Yay!!! More stellaris!!! Love you and the videos lathrix!

love all your stellaris videos! all crysis playthru better be soon!

Here goes my Sunday afternoon! Go Lath for uploading another

Love to see more Stellaris from you! Can't wait for the triple bossfight playthrough later...

Keep up the good work Lathland!

Always love these series! Keep up the incredible work!

Having 10 habitats in every system used to be so tedious, much needed update. Great job on the rp elements in the video. I did a similar early rush with clone army origin... So strong early.

The usual, Stellaris is indeed the content I wish to see more on your channel! Looking forward to triple crisis video as well)

I'm so happy to have these back love these man keep up the great work YOU THE MAN!!!!!!

I’ve been waiting so long for a stellaris vid!

sick video, i've missed you on stellaris for a while

I'm glad to see you back, I've really missed your videos.

Love for the long! Keep up the good work, and dont let youtube put you down!

Keep it up I love this style of videos

Great video as always. I have a suggestion for a future run, based on the Chaos Dwarfs from the game "Total War Warhammer 3". The game has received some backlash after its recent DLC, but I still think the run would be fun. In the game, the Chaos Dwarfs rely on labourers to produce the basic resource of their economy, "raw materials". However their labourer population slowly dies off, so they have to capture new ones in battle. In Stellaris this could be represented, by restricting your main species to ruler and specialist jobs and use the forced labor purge type against other species. I think the civic Relentless Industrialist would be fitting, since the Chaos Dwarfs are very industrialised and corrupt their territory. There are supposed to be very few Chaos Dwarfs, so going for slow breeders or even clone soldier ascendend would be appropriate. For asension either cybernetic or psionic would be most fitting, though cybernetic won't be very useful if you play clone soldiers. Edit: You also shouldn't rely on vassals for basic resources, since that kind of defeats the purpose of the challenge.

I had a delightful terravore run, mostly because I might as well try becoming the crises once. Using worlds as breeding rocks was a huge boon for the run, and being able to focus solely on mineral and alloy income was an insane economy (starbases produce energy.) Another thing I learned was I do actually want hydroponic bays, since the food generator building actually converts them into energy at a net positive rate (better than market). Then you sorta just expand. Traditions dont really matter beyond going for the starbase traditions early because the bonuses from terravore are nuts and even on grand admiral you sort of just... roll everyone over. It's actually an inverse difficulty in that the fewer other empires in the game the harder it is. Advanced starts don't matter either, you can run 80 corvettes in 20 years without impacting habitat production, which is limited by influence not alloys.

the way the new habitats work reminds me of a thing from my own setting - one of the various species capable of faster-than-light travel has a destroyed homeworld, and rather than living in relatively static orbital stations, they live in truly massive city-starships that roam across different systems, accompanied by fleets of both defensive combat vessels and various civilian ships. They go around mining asteroids for resources mainly, and as one of their big 'starhomes' gets to be around its maximum size and population, a new one is built basically attached to it before being released out with its own little support fleet that it will build out also, because i like having fantasy stuff in my sci-fi setting, they're the equivalent of dwarves. nomadic dwarven starhomes devouring asteroids to expand

Glad this landed on my page SO far I got some fun new ideas to enjoy habs

I havent watched any Stellaris content for a while, but I'm glad this video was recommended to me because I have been wanting to play again. You inspired me to play a new game.

Glad to see more Stellaris from you!

It's insane that you got the last baol with the story you made for yourself. A plant species convinced of non-plant treachery finds a plantoid precursor that allows them to turn any world into a perfected garden world where they can overcome their need for habitats and settle their roots in terra firma again

Love you Lath!

Great video. I wasn't sold on the new habitat mechanisms but I'm willing to give it a try after watching this.

I do enjoy talking to plants, this intro was very validating thank you

Ty for your continued content bro

Letts go another full playthrough 🎉🎉🎉

Appreciate the videos!

The change was great, and the video fantastic

another full playthrough im so seated

glad to have you back

41:20 These battles look straight out of Legend of the Galactic Heroes - half-encirclements for days. Also fitting in that you started out with ambition to conquer the galaxy, and wound up doing so but creating a relatively peaceful and united empire in the process.

Been waiting for my Stellaris content

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

Love your videos. Hope you get better soon.=)

I love your stellaris content!

"Sillily" -Lathrix, 2023

Oh my, I've completely missed this! I've heard of other yt users not getting notifications for certain channels, but it never happened to me. Man I've missed loads of your content!

Funny thing is, never played this game but watched almost all the Stellaris videos you have. Stil no idea what you do exactly, but it's just chill and cool to watch and see you destroy the whole universe. Thanks for the videos

Yeah, I just picked up this game a few weeks ago and with this update I made a livestock habitat with a thousand pops on it, how funny

Love your playthroughs! Lets make the algorithm happy

Lathrix, I love these videos. Always a pleasure when they come out. Watching now with a bit of whiskey XD.

thanks for the video!

yes please let this stellaris series be continued in the future !

I always love your vids!

Super happy to see Lathrix return to Stellaris. This is a series I wish to see continued in the future!

Or in the case of Crowley yelling at his plants

Wow such great content!

See another Stellaris Video from the rambling genius. Just starting it and begin the prep for dinner. What a nice way out of the week.

Great video!

"Finally our energy reserves are in the plus" Next clip: -330 energy a month Never change Lathrax

happy to see you back in Stellaris! playing the Good Guys (TM)

I'm really excited for this, one of my fave empires is a void born criminal empire
