I stream on https://twitch.tv/imperorthefirst and run https://www.youtube.com/@Imperor dedicated to longform gameplay of grand strategy, 4X and TTRPG games. My main goal is helping people get into more complex games!

If the remastered versions add modern controls that'd be super. It's the main gripe I have with the older games besides low resolutions.
I read Macron and was wondering how the French suddenly had that one in the bag as a country.
Wouldn't have thought they could do it, but very happy they did. Let's see how long it lasts.
It's because it is ineffective and doesn't have any consequences if they fail. Withdrawing will prompt blue states to push even harder om regulation, as well as the EU possibly waking up. I think they are afraid of the Streisand effect, nothing more.
I truly believe the world would be a much better place if there was a clear cutoff for wealth. But of course, there would still be weasles out there circumventing such measures. Greed is such an incredibly harmful thing.
Not a single redeeming thing about billionaires. Not a single one. Their "philanthropy" would be entirely unneeded, if they simply paid their fair share back to society, without which they wouldn't have what they have in the first place.
I don't post nearly as much as I would like, because I post some stream related stuff in my own community on lemmy and don't know want to come off as someone who is trying to advertise all the time. I have been reported for that posting to my own community, which... ya know. I get it, nobody cares about yet another streamer dude, but it is a bit intimidating almost.
New Stellaris campaign starting tonight!
Tonight at 19:00 CEST (Berlin) we're going to start our next Stellaris campaign after the grand victory of the Avian Menace piercing through Black Holes to find a better reality for themselves.
Our new story will follow the Sludge, a Toxoid race in service of a Toxoid god to bring the truth of The Sludge to the galaxy!
Come on by: https://twitch.tv/imperorthefirst

Stream schedule for next week starting 23.09
Hello everyone!
Next week we're going full bore grand strategy, well nearly, with CK3 as the new Roads to Power DLC releases and back to Stellaris on Straturday's.

"We thought the unwashed masses would kill each other for the chance to give us all their money for something intangible and entirely devoid of value, but it appears they are even poorer than we thought they were."
I feel like I saw something on that topic before and no organic matter would survive being hurled out of our atmosphere. It'd burn up entirley and nothing would be left. Maybe if it was like... a sphere with a cave inside?
Cool! Didn't trust them before, now I can trust them even less.
Dave the Diver keeps delivering - Idol Concert Section
imperorthefirst went live on Twitch. Catch up on their Dave the Diver VOD now.
Tonight on stream I decided my first piece of merch will be a sleeping blindfold with the eyes of my avatar on it.
Now I only need about 15.000 more followers and 1500 more subscribers on twitch to make it actually a viable thing.
We're going live in 30 minutes over on Twitch with more Dave the Diver
Come on by, hang out with us and unwind from the day.

Sadly they did not kick his ass. They sort of settled in the end, but they lost their special status and self governance stuff to a board controlled by DeSantis but he put a few pro Disney faces on that board to get it all to settle. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_v._DeSantis
I don't know. Disney lost against Ron DeSantis on home turf. Not quite sure what they are going to do against a foreign actor.
Loved it. Every single actor and actress is doing a stellar job. The character arcs are fantastical but also believable due to the obscenely crazy circumstances they all find themselves in during the chosen setting of the show. I am very surprised it has such low ratings, I think it is a triumph in what it set out to accomplish.

The US and the USSR engaged in a race to have the most nukes. After the fall of the Sowjet Union international treaties were put in place to reduce the number of nukes in both east and west.
Don't quote me, but if I remember correctly, at the height of the cold war, both sides had more than 12.000 nukes each.
Humanity had enough fire power to delete the entire globe roughly 40x over then. Why? Because bigger is better.

The Imperor is back with Stellaris for Straturday!
Hello everyone!
My voice is finally returning to me and we'll celebrate that tomorrow with a full length Stellaris stream (if my voice survives it, anyway). I missed you all and I hope to see you there!
https://twitch.tv/imperorthefirst
Stream will be 19:00-23:00 CEST (Berlin) - come on by, let's hang out and celebrate Straturday!
Ah yes, the rapist doesn't want others to have power over him. Who would have guessed. Fuck him and fuck the panel that decided he could ever join.
Clearly me. I am a tiny little youtuber and streamer who wants this place to succeed, so I lurk, I post and don't have a presence on the big platforms.
So if I ever make it big, I can help drive users here. You just wait! It'll happen any day now!
They will still talk about this as some sort of suspicious thing.
Tonight we play more Stellaris for Straturday!
Join us over at https://twitch.tv/imperorthefirst
This is our fifth stream playing as the Avian Menace and we've just finished our ascension to become cybernetically enhanced super birds. Nothing will stand in our way to dominate the galaxy with our beauty and supreme intellect!
Come join, have a chat and a good time ❤
Beginners with Stellaris are super welcome to ask questions, me and the community will try and give you all the answers you might want

Dungeon Keeper is still the best Dungeon Keeper
Dungeon Keeper was my very first video game addiction. I stayed up late and got up early before school just to get in a few more hours with the game. It had so many mechanics all rolled into a delicious little strategy game that was so different than anything else at the time with weird little quirks and details that didn't have to be in there, but were.
Let me list all the stuff I remember being blown away by and that no game since has really properly captured anymore.
- The spell sounds and voice acting were amazing. IMPUS NETRUM - NYHAHAHAHA!
- It's a strategy game but also a full on 3D shooter, if you use the Symbiosis spell. Not just that, but creatures have their individual view points, skills and abilities. Need to exhaust a gas trap? Run over it 50 times with a big red devil thing (I played in German as a kid, don't remember the names of everything). Want to scout around? Become a fly and literally fly around with hex-cell vision!
- There was little debris falling from the dungeon ceilings, making splashing sounds in water.
- Creatures hat pointless details like their blood group, just because.
- You could find special items to transfer creatures from one level to the next (hello level 10 captured knight)
- Finding diamond veins was truly an accomplishment and changed the map
- Horny was a mad lad, needed his own dungeon and would slaughter your own creatures
- The animosity between certain creature types, requiring separate dormitories or hard choices: Spiders vs. Bugs and Flies, Skeletons vs. Fat horned red demons, Skeletons vs. Vampires and more
- The torture animations
- The humor on the map choices
- The voiced insults you could throw around
- The race against time as your imps barely managed to get the walls reinforced when the dwarves come digging
- The intro
- The creatures all having various abilities like trolls working in the workshop, wizards and vampires researching in the library
- The temple allowing you to combine creatures into new/better creatures or to insult the gods
- Ghosts rising from dead heroes in the graveyard
- Being able to raise a little lizard thing into a dragon
- The various types of doors with the swirling magic door which just looked so cool
- The Indiana Jones stone ball trap that literally killed everything in it's path, not just hurt or injured, no, flat out kill ANYTHING including level 10 creatures your own included. NO MERCY
- The Iron Maidens, oh my
- The chicken farms
- The speed up spell
- Pressing CTRL+R to get slightly less pixelated graphics on the dungeon textures
- The fact that you could drop your creatures without them getting stunned from the fall and be active immediately to fight - This is likely my biggest gripe with almost all "spiritual successors" including Dungeon Keeper 2. Always hated that I need to sort of kind of anticipate enemy arrival times like Deutsche Bahn and fail to deliver my creatures on time like American Market Makers
Honestly, I can gush about this game so much and it has inspired a life long love in me for Imps and Imp-inspired creatures. This is where my username and online presence today comes from and I love the little critters dearly.

Crusader Kings II - Monarch's Journey Playlists
I went through my channel today and I found all the playlists for the CK2 Monarch's Journey. Anyone here remember this? Leading up to the release of CK3, they had this event, where they put out "Monarch's Journeys" with specific little tasks and goals. A bit like Achievements. You'd earn points and unlock cosmetics for CK3 - these are now all available for everyone.
I put together all the playlists for the various Journey's that I finished as well as a few metrics I had collected back then.
Did you play these at all?
