I've returned to Stellaris. I had started a game using a Star Trek mod, but decided to play the base game instead, or as much as the game with all the major game-changing DLC installed can be considered as such. My hunch with games is that in learning them, it's best to start with the most mainstream choices, as things like the tutorial are usually based off that set of parameters. But that can be a bit boring, so I created my own race of short-lived xenophobes who live on a mostly broken ringworld surrounding a star. So I have an added, personal goal of getting the ringworld back in shape and functional while fighting off the nasty aliens. Repairing a ringworld is expensive, so it's probably not in my best long-term interests, but the idea appeals to me.
