So I just remembered that the "full" version of Stellaris came with an actual novel :p . I've been meaning to read it for a while, but never could work up the motivation. Then I figured I might as well transfer it to my phone to read it during work commutes :) .

Anyone else digging into it, or already read it? What did you think? I might not participate in this thread much until I've gotten through it, but I'll jump in once I'm there. Given how much time I spend on buses to and from work, it shouldn't be long ;) .

Sending generation ships into the void would be hella cool, by the way.

I read it, it's actually quite good.
