After all, the relationship is the result of three years of long-distance love, so it is still quite strong.
However, at this moment, Bai Shuyi looked at the key sent by Gu Qingshi and felt so angry that he had no place to vent.
What are you talking about eight numerous stars? What are you talking about eight groups of stars? Kill them all!
Bai Shuo was so angry that he opened NGI and wanted to give a bad review for "Stellaris", but he found out that the game had not yet been released. To post a review, one must activate the key of the advance test version and play the game for more than 4 hours.
Just play it, he is definitely good at this game.
His happy marriage life almost went bankrupt because of this crappy game! No one could stop him from expressing his tearful accusations against Fanxing and Gu Qingshi!
——He really misunderstood Gu Qingshi. Who would have thought that he was confessing his love?
Bai Chengming entered the key and activated the game.
After waiting for a few minutes for the game to download, Bai Chengming opened the game in a bad mood.
The LOGO flashed by.
Bai Chengming cursed, "Stupid LOGO, can't skip, bad review."
Enter the game, a loading screen will appear, and the loading bar below will load within two seconds.
Bai Chengming cursed again: "Stupid design, rated as something that can't load in seconds. Bad review."
The main interface of the game appeared. The UI written in Microsoft's elegant black and white fonts did not inherit Victoria's high-end design with gold edges and a red background at all!
Bai Chengming turned into a big troll: "What kind of work attitude is this? They can't even do the UI properly. Bad review! Bad review! Bad review!"
......
After entering the game, Bai Chengming was filled with anger and was ready to find fault.
What customization? Just skip it and see what's going on inside the game first.
He randomly picked something called the "Hazibuzan Federation", which described itself as a reptilian species with extreme militarism and idealism, and whose philosophy was criminal families and franchising.
Well, the political system he chose is "corporate government (criminal syndicate)".
A political system that is despised by players across the galaxy.
Bai Chengming didn't know how to play the game. He was so angry that he made a few random choices and entered the game without knowing what was going on.
As soon as you enter the game, the interface pops up with information about the origin and leader of this civilization.
[Origin: Prosperity and Unification
Billions of years ago, the first primitive Hazibuzan species emerged in the vast savannah of Zumaka. Since then, our civilization has spread and slowly prospered. At first our government was weak... As a final step in consolidating power, the Business Group abolished the old government, which was now a shell of itself, and became the de facto rulers of our home planet.
Now, with FTL technology now a reality, the best minds in the Hazibuzan Union have completed the development of the first FTL engine. The stars are finally within reach!】
[Our journey is to the sea of stars!]
Bai Chengming was a little overwhelmed by the sudden incident.
He closed the event pop-up window with a bit of confusion, and then he looked at the magnificent and charming starry sky, the looming orbit, the rotating mother planet [Zumaka] filled with atmospheric clouds, and the three inconspicuous frigates outside the mother planet, and fell into silence in this short minute.
WTF?
Where's your beginner's tutorial?
Bai Chengming was indeed confused. He really couldn't understand what Gu Qingshi was doing. Was there really no tutorial for beginners?
He could only use his professional skills to explore the functions of the UI one by one.
Although many people claim that Stellaris is a very easy Viper game, this statement is actually biased.
Because most of them said that they have actually played Stellaris...
"Stellaris" has a very low entry threshold. As long as you play a complete game, you can basically understand the game.
But the problem is that many players can't even make it through the first game. Many players who have never been exposed to grand strategy games have already retreated when they saw this dazzling UI, subconsciously thinking that this game is "very hardcore."
Even though that is not the case.
Therefore, Gu Qingshi learned the clever method of "Victoria 3". When the cursor moves on the UI, an introduction box pops up, and the key nouns in the introduction box are hyperlinked to avoid headaches for players when seeing this complicated UI system.
As for the tutorial? Oh, long live the guy.
Seeing that Fanxing really didn’t do a tutorial for beginners, Bai Chengming’s anger disappeared instantly.
He doesn't even need to give a bad review for this. They don't even provide a tutorial for beginners. Wouldn't it just become a complete failure and become a niche carnival?
At this moment, he felt a little regretful.
Snapped!
He immediately slapped himself and said, "I don't regret it at all!"
Bai Chengming shook his head and found that a prompt box popped up again in the game.
One of his resources, "cohesion", is enough for him to choose traditions for his country.
The so-called tradition is similar to a national policy tree without pop-up events. It is subdivided into adaptation, diplomacy, exploration, expansion, etc. Each tradition can provide a certain buff to the player's country to facilitate the player's next behavior. When the tradition of a system is completed, you can choose to ascend.
The well-known meme "flesh and blood are weak, machines ascend" comes from here.
Bai Chengming took a closer look at his political system: criminal group.
What else is there to say? Just start taking charge.
I'm part of a criminal gang, so why can't I do some capitalism?
Stand up straight, stand at attention! Let's all contribute to the progress of civilization.
He was oppressing his fellow reptiles in the country. Not long after, a research vessel exploring a distant galaxy sent a message using superluminal communication technology.
[Unknown entity completes decoding]
After a brief prompt, Bai Chengming saw the pop-up window of this event.
First contact with the Republic of Chrisland
[Signal transmission access]
[You illegally enslaved your people? Bah! We in the Chrisland Republic will be vigilant against your race, criminal.]
Bai Chengming looked at the white-haired lion man with a righteous look on his face in the event pop-up window, who was looking at him with disdain.
How should we respond?
[(Goodwill) Win-win cooperation is beneficial to both of us]
[(Neutral) Your moral code means nothing to us!]
【(Hostile) Your old tricks won't work, Shifna.】
"What did I do?"
Bai Chengming looked confused, and then he saw the "Chrisland Republic" logo in the upper left corner.
"Equality Commune".
"Attitude: -250"
--------
I got this by accident when I was playing Stellaris a few days ago. It's a big cat plus the equal commune. It's quite interesting.
Chapter 191 [The long night may be sleepless]
The starry version of Stellaris, uh, it may be a bit confusing, but to put it simply, the "Stellaris" in this world and the "Stellaris" of the Earth's Paradox Society are very different.
As the development director of "Stellaris", An Yan inevitably added some of her own understanding.
For example, she strengthened the tendency of opposing ideological trends.
For example, she set up a system for the government to guide changes in social trends.
The former is self-evidently self-explanatory, and the situation that Bai Chengming encountered is a good example. In the original version of Stellaris, even if there were opposing ideologies, the reduction in favorability was not so severe.
The latter is a reference to the "political figure" model in Victoria. There is a unit called "leader" in the game.
The definition of a leader in Stellaris is quite broad: scientists, governors, fleet commanders, army commanders, heads of state, and heirs can all be called leaders.
These leaders will have one or several ideologies, such as militarism (expansion), peace, authoritarianism, equality, etc. Their ideologies will affect the ideological spectrum of the player's empire.
At the same time, certain events and behaviors will also affect the ideological spectrum. If the player manipulates the government to wage a long-term foreign war, the support for the militarist state will increase in a short period of time, but the domestic pacifist trend will continue to grow with the intensity and duration of the war.
When a certain ideological group becomes larger, it will ask players to behave in accordance with its ideology, and provide certain buffs when players perform corresponding behaviors.
For example, when a country as a whole tends to expand, political parties or social groups will ask players to expand their territory outward. When players start a war at this time, they will gain buffs such as reduced military ship construction costs, increased influence, and slower growth in war weariness.
If players choose to go against the trend, they will have to fight under the debuff. If this continues for a long time, some planets will experience riots or even rebellions.
In this way, when players want the government to take certain actions, they will also need to consider the domestic support for the government.
Of course, this does not require players to weigh politics. If you are a war-crazy player, you can also choose the "Gestalt" political system - that is, everyone is united and everyone is for me.
There will be no political parties or factions, and players will not have to deal with ideology.
This system is well done. Compared with the economic-based political system of Victoria 3, Anyan's system is quite simple. She just made a decent framework to ensure that players can understand it and get started at a glance, and then stopped there.
It does not pursue further depth like Victoria.
So the entry level is also very low.
However, Bai Chengming doesn't think so...
Ever since he was dumped by the "Equality Commune" Chrisland Republic, he understood the ways of the criminal gangs.
Bad attitude? I a diplomat slapped over and started licking.
Of course, they did not sit back and do nothing after licking the people. They immediately established a criminal branch on the planet of the Republic, and made huge profits by colluding with officials to smuggle contraband and exploit the common people.
Countless energy coins flowed from the Chrisland Republic to the Hazibuzan Federation, and it wasn't long before his resource reserves exceeded the upper limit.
What to do after you have enough resources?
Just expand.
Bai Chengming prepared for war and expanded his military, and by 2260 he had raised his naval strength to the top 4 in the entire galaxy.
