Gonna go militarist Zenophobe (either a fanatic militarist or add materialist, not sure yet) shadow bug. 
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

I went with a first walkthrough as a Xenophobe Militaristic dude and got myself a few bruises while roleplaying my character effectively and insulting every repulsive bug I encountered  :yuk:

This is my "learn the ropes" walkthrough anyway, enjoying the game so far. :)

You really need to get over your irrational fear of Zeno. The Isaurians are just misunderstood.

My science research was going really great until my level 5 science lady won the Presidency.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

She probably played the woman card.

I started with a random race. As a first for a Paradox game, Stellaris has a pretty good and useful tutorial mode.

The very first click on the race selection screen caused a crash for me - but since then I have played about 2 hours of stable game.  I'm mostly just knocking about in a huge galaxy, I colonized one planet and now I am looking for the Empire of Zeno.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

I figured out how to get robots.  I am not sure they are useful in the long-term, but burning plentiful money to get a permanent mineral worker tile seems good.   :hmm:

Just make sure they don't develop sentience and revolt against you.

Except for this one. It does look like a good game, but I bet it'll be a better and cheaper game in a year.

IGN looks to be a real outlier in terms of where they ranked the game.

http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/stellaris/critic-reviews

Total metacritic ranking is 7.9

Why?  I see nothing wrong with giving sentience to my robot friends.
