I wanted to make a tech-based hive mind species in Stellaris, but when I went through the whole list of options, I could not find anything that made your species into a hive-mind other than the naming convention. I remember watching playthroughs of the game were the AI were generated as hive-minds, but is there any way to make your own? Does it need any of the DLC's as I don't have any of them?
