Looks more like art for a loading screen than in-game art to me. Similar to one of the hints for CK2 (or maybe the Old Gods DLC) in that respect.
I hope not. A space game with a CK2-like focus on characters sounds like my cup of tea.
If you zoom in by 800%, you can clearly see semi-transparent blue lines that look exactly as if they were deliberately applied to give the impression of an image on a monitor.
Unless Paradox is trolling us, everything is pointing towards a sci-fi setting.

I have zoomed and enhanced the picture and applied several forensic filters to the image, and the results have startled me deeply. I don't think we're dealing with a space GSG anymore.
I think Paradox is finally entering the world of comic books.

But that monitor must be old to have those lines. I rethought my post-apocalypse speculation, and that would be fitting if there was a nuclear war in 1973. Then people would be using old monitors like that

There are several galleries to the right.
Use with caution or simply use NoScript.
Not so sure if serious....
Well, the styles are not too far away from each other.
True.
So late antiquity and Dark ages is out of the picture 
I will just wait for it longer now

I can see why they did hide the bottom of the picture but is not hiding of the top part of the picture a bit suspicious.
There are 3 parts of this picture and 2 were hidden from us. 3-2=1. The illuminati has one eye. Paradox is illuminati confirmed?
I'm reading a lot about people being disappointed with the (most probable) setting: 'space'.
But please consider the Paradox staff reading this, thinking "What have we done?!". Think of all those tears, streaming down the young and eager faces of developers who have put their heart into making this piece of art. Imagine the sad face Johan makes, when reading your comments. Do you really want a sad Johan?
I say: This is very exciting and though it's not what I hoped it to be (which would be a modern 2000 setting), I will still look very much forward to it. So far I haven't played a PDS game which wasn't fun and I'm sure this one will be awesome as well.
I'm so excited about the direction they'll choose. I think concentrating on politics and technology is a great choice (especially politics, as this is where PDS-games shine).
Gooooo Paradox!

Given we don't know how the game will be we can't really just say no to it. A space game don't need to be anything like the space games that exist today.
"I've already figured out what this [Project Augustus] is. Believe it or not, it's a kind of plant toilet"
Plant? Agriculture Sim confirmed!
On a more serious note has Stellaris been disproved? Because if not - it feels very generic.
Why does everyone in this thread suddenly have a PhD in haircuts? Just wondering.
