I'm also experimenting with playing xenophobes this time, and I'm not sure I like it. Research appears to be going much faster for a single planet, but it's hard to remember where I stood last time I got this far. Then again, I'm starting to see what people are talking about when they say that colonizing is almost a net detriment. Zero habitable planets over 20% habitability in the space I have available, and only 3 even that good. Things are going much better, but my starting placement in this galaxy is pretty terrible. I finally got a foothold against the pirates on another playthrough by building up a fleet of 10 corvettes as soon as I possibly could. Considering that none of us are even egalitarian (anymore), I'm basically the good guy here. Otherwise it's a matter of when, not if, they try to destroy my robo-friends (not to mention me, having just unlocked Flesh Is Weak). Yes, I'm going to change their ideologies by force, but ONLY because that's the only path to peace. I'm still a pacifist xenophile materialist, they have nothing to fear. I felt more than a little bad when I immediately left the federation and formed my own, with beer and robo-hookers.Įxcept it's FINE. It sure was nice of them to invite my materialist empire, and then to help enforce my ideology on our neighbor. Two spiritualists, one fanatical (and then both fanatical). Speaking of, that federation to the north that accepted me. Basically I'm Rogue Servitoring in reverse - no one will harm my precious metal friends. They have association status and my southern front covered, that'll have to do. they have a -30 to federating for some reason anyway, so screwit. I had to forcefully change their minds first, so they thought alike!Įxcept I was hoping to federate with two machine empires, immune to my ethical ways. Which would be fine - I just federated with some militarist egalitarians.
