    I mean have you played Stellaris?

    If not, the Prethoryn Scourge are hands down the most terrifying thing in the game, IMO. They are Galaxy eating hive minds. Stellaris is a real time strategy game made by Paradox Interactive. You create an alien species and pick their traits, ethics, civics, etc. It is mainly centered around role play and it is a blast playing with friends and great material for short stories.

    It is also greater for mocking politics, ethics, morals, perspectives, and often referred to as the Xeno hate simulator. The game is different each times, the DLC adds so much, the mods are a greater way to spice it up even more. In the game you face what is called the end game crises. There are 3 standard end game crises, technically more but they don’t pan out as end game anhilators, and you have to survive the wiping of the Galaxy. This is where the Prethoryn Scourge am alient hive mind that eats all live to thrive. However, the scourge discover your Galaxy by informing you they are running away from a greater threat.

    Prethoryn sounds awesome to me, there aren’t too many Stellaris players on Lemmy at the moment at least that I can find community or instance wise. So I am securing the name quickly. Plus I now have the game of world eaters.
