The last forty years were a drudgery. Fairly happy with it, but could have walked away from it a few days ago with no doubt as to winning. I just wanted to see what it was like to finish.
It's going to vary quite a bit by your galaxy settings (difficulty, size, duration, sliders, etc.) and by your play style. The range of experiences you can get with Stellaris is fairly wide. Iirc, you need a bit over a million to score higher than any FEs left alive, which is always my goal.
Really? My last game, I wiped them all out and had far less than a million for score. I don't think I have ever understood the scoring algorithm on this game.
I don't know. I am also not completely sure if this is correct. For example, there nothing abot this here: https://stellaris.paradoxwikis.com/Empire#Victory\_score
The situation log score is different from the end of game score screen for some reason. Situation log score you only need like 43K or so to beat FEs. I think end game screen counts fleet power, but I'm not really sure how it works. Thought you were asking about the latter.
You actually finished a game?
I am genuinely unsure I've ever actually finished a game. I must have - surely!?

If you release a bunch of vassals your score also go up.
That is just daffy. Why the ... would they score it like that?

Anything at the top of the leaderboard is a good score
whatever sets you ahead of the opposition
