Co-op Hive Mind | Stellaris

"Hi I'm here for the interview."
"GET OUUUUUUT! GET OUUUUUUT!"

THE ZUMANS ARE BACK

x= infinity

x+x=2x
2x>x

That's more, right? riiiight? :(

"this is not helping" killed me at the end

Love the idea of a hive mind just being run by someone with normal human limitations. Like instead of being deeply interconnected with each body it’s just a dude desperately trying to give commands to billions of bodies so they don’t die of thirst because he forgot about them.

I haven’t played all of these games but, if y’all make it, I’ll watch it and I always get a chuckle anytime y’all make a video. Common Door Monster W.

"That explains the gap in your resume."
Hmmm. Time Hurricane. Going to have to use that excuse next time.

I can’t even oppress people for fun because you’re all just me

I felt that

Solution find a new hive mind to integrate with so they can take half of the work off of your plate and vise versa and you can keep adding more hive minds and then you start getting into a job scenario the humans like to do.

Fantastic work.

"And then we had too many leaders and our economy exploded"
Felt that one

how has kyle not aged in the last 8 years

The Zumans are the worst! ^^

Do you only have the two Stellaris videos? Am I just not finding them or is this a missed opportunity?

My friend and I tried coop yesterday and it was actually awesome. I focused on maximizing our planets while my friend kept an eye on the military, and then focused entirely and waging an expansionist war against our super grouchy neighbor and ripping his empire in half without me having to give up working on the research and economy

Average progenitor gameplay.

"Oh, well, that explains the gap in your resume'"

Sigh. Ok. I'll download the game again.

According to my friend, you can opress a cactus by removing their spikes.

Honestly, that time you "helped" Stefan (that brave Ukrainian man-god) dominate the galaxy as a hive mind was, by far, one of the cringiest, most embarrassing displays of roleplaying I've ever seen. You guys had no idea what was going on, spent all the available time just waffling on amongst yourselves, and were generally useless. Even the Templin Institute doing his best insane Commissar impression was far better at making even basic decisions.

This is great

That was some next tier dialog

hey i think the algorithm hates you guys, i thought the channel wasnt posting but then i found out you just werent appearing on my feed

It's honestly kinda upsetting how little Stellaris content is on this Greta channel, because everything they make about it is amazing. However, I can't really imagine a sketch myself at the moment, so maybe I shouldn't talk.

Hey so long time subscriber who hasnt kept up with your videos in a couple years; I quite literally laughed out loud throughout this whole sketch. Love to see yall still going strong! Much love from Michigan

You just made a better hivemind story than Rick and Morty, which is great

Man i wish i had friends...or...hands...or less spikes, man being a cactus is hard.

I can't wait to see you guys release a video about Baldur's Gate :-)

I only realized halfway through the video how desensitized I've become to the crazy stuff in Stellaris.

When he said "Our head of research got trapped in a time hurricane" I just went "Oh yeah, that happens" with the same energy as if he said he forgot an item on his shopping list.

Is Door Monster's own resident hivemind the Collective around anymore these days? It feels like it's been a while since I've seen them... I fear for the galaxy... lol.

What you do is create someone who is connected to the Hive but is simi-independent from the hive.

I hate when hive mind don't act like a hive at all

"this is blank!" XD

You're arguing with yourself ,......... and losing

Brilliant!

When will paradox finally add zoomans

I just got the happiness is irrelevant part

Just use your supreme, overriding will to command an insignificant lesser being to govern for you. It's like delegation, but without the embezzlement, legal liability, and eventual betrayal due to secret ambitions for greater power from your employees.
If you're an organic, gooey, DNA-filled being like the Zerg, mutate a commander that's more specialized than you at controlling, but with infinite loyalty, but not weird about its obsession with the dear leader.
If you're a race of objectively superior machines, manufacture and program a specialized control unit, which will inevitably short circuit due to the leaky acids of the cheaper variety of Double-A batteries with which you powered it, go rogue, and turn on you and all other species in the galaxy, erasing the need for you to stress along with sentient life in the known universe.

I shall henceforth use 'time hurricane' to explain all gaps in employment

Doormonster always inspires me to hop back into these games, even when I’m burned out

What this video has taught me:
Our language lacks a word for a hive mind that is mentally ill and believes to be a single person.

There is a high pitched tone in the background of this videos audio that is hurting my ears.

Beautiful in every way

It just occured to me, if you have a co-op hivemind that could just be a schizophrenic hivemind.

Thanks for reminding me that Stellaris got co-op play "recently"-

Never to late to install automation, just beware there robo uprising.

Commenting for the algorithm

Wait this concept is so funny
