    A challenge to consider is to attempt a Fanatical Purifier/determined exterminator/devouring swarm but try conquer the entire galaxy BEFORE the end game crisis but play with all the AI advance starts. The most challenging fight I have ever had in this game was trying to stand up to an assimilator empire with a big lead, that spawned next to me, when I was a Determined Exterminator. After all the battles we had, I tried to wait for the end game crisis and then realized while waiting that, it could never compare to the epic back and forth battles we’d already had. So I stopped stalling to wait for it to spawn and just finished the game off. I figure with your aggressive approach, it should prove a proper challenge.

  • @dajosh42069

    You asked about starting on a Habitat as a future playthrough challenge.. Perhaps, instead of a habitat start, use "Gigastructural Engineering" and start your species on an "Orbital Elysium", or a "Planet Ringworld" orbiting an empty Tomb World?? Start with habitats researched, but with the standard start of resources. Since your starting in space on a larger station, you should have the ability to grow comperably to what you'd get planet-side. Could add a little flavor. :) You could say something like; your ancestors began construction of the Elysium/Tiny Ringworld ages ago to escape a planetary cataclysm (plague, volcanic eruptions, or something) and vowed to never again step foot on any planet, lest another dangerous cataclysm befall them. Maybe their spiritualists who believe that their home planet cursed them (by changing after too many volcanic eruptions turning it into a Tomb World, or by "creating" a plague that wiped out almost their entire species) leading to orbital habitats being developed to get everyone off world. And on 01.01.2200, the Elysium/Tiny Ringworld is finally COMPLETE, and all populations have abandoned the planet. With their "great work" (completing construction) complete they're able to turn focus outward, and are ready to begin exploring the galaxy. :D I'd watch that!! ;)

    Suggestion: Play a Tech/Tradition rush build in a Massive galaxy with 5x Tech/Tradition costs, even if its just on your own time. I've been trying it out recently and while the game does go much slower, you get to keep expanding (usually) well into the mid-game and if you build enough tech worlds and maximize your unity gain, you really take off by about the middle of the mid-game. I'm really enjoying my playthroughs now. Plus the end-game lag doesn't feel as horrible now because the game already feels slow and methodical.

    Ever since tiles being gone, I really dont like stellaris as much. But, I like it a whole lot when with life seeded still. I hate exspansion, too much to manage, not fun at all for me more of a headache. I prefer a nice 15ish systems or so and 4 planets w/ some mega structures along with a nice system to make a choke point. Fun fact btw, get droids ASAP with life seeded, you can allow colonization w/ droids, send over 4 more droids from your superior masterace gaia world and build a robot building facility or somethin. Then you got robots being built and can just have them mine, farm or generate energy and focus your gaia on sweet sweet research. Or just straight up rush either world shaper or synthetic ascendency perks with some holo theaters and bam you can colonize. Just stock up on LOTS of energy if your going the teraforming route.
