Use my humble bundle link! humblebundleinc.sjv.io/OeePZG READ CORRECTIONS HERE: - base game has ascension perks. utopia adds ascension paths - lithoids does add an origin (calamitous birth) and potentially more.

Fellas if you don't have stellaris yet and are looking to get it, now is the best time, Stellaris is currently £3.49 for the game and £15.11 for the starter edition with most DLC also on sale
First Contact does come with the Eager Explorers Civic, that is an absolute must for players that like to go wide. Overlord does bring Hyper Relays and Orbital Rings, that is essential infrastructure to your empire in any playthrough, regardless of if you use vassals or not.
It also I think added the kingship civic and I think another one. It also got a similar set of traits like crystallization and the other traits that give rare resources only lithoids get. It could use another civic or gimmick tbh, an ascension perk for mining deeper or something.
@@nineflames2863 hmmm on the steam it says ‘Unique Mechanics for Lithoid Empires 15 New Portraits of Lithoids and 1 of a Lithoid robot New Mineral-based Ship Models New voice pack’ Lot of confusion to what it actually comes with
@@Ep3o Pretty sure they don't update steam with new things they added after the fact. Think origins were only added after this one or came from different pack that links if you have whatever. I thought you would have turned the DLC off for each one to see what was added but fair enough
@Ep3o Could be that the origin and civic were added later. Doesn't change the fact that you need the lithoid pack to use them, so yeah. Still should be 5 bucks at best, but at least it actually adds stuff that's fun to use. You know, unlike Cosmic Storms which adds a mechanic most players just turn off, and clogs up the tech tree + precursor pool lol.
Just have them all, ez :) tbh I have every dlc for ck3, eu4, hoi4 and stellaris (i'm not addicted to paradox games, you're addicted to paradox games) Paradox mp (when it doesn't desync) is great simply because only the host needs the dlc for everyone in the lobby to have access to it. Great video btw.
Haven't confirmed this but I feel like Calamitous Birth origin has to come from Lithoids. It's the origin where you're rock people coming out of a meteor that crashes into the planet.
besides just getting all of them, my take on this is definitely Stellaris, utopia, megacorp, overlord, paragons (optional), Leviathans, synthetic dawn, distant stars, Ancient relics (optional because relics), First contact (optional because cloaking), Machine Age (optional), everything else is pretty much up to you but i myself both started playing around the time utopia came out and would recommend playing with as many DLC as you can get your hands on and/or all the DLC.
Bruh the number of times I have watched the Galactic Counsel trying to fight back and forth over protecting or hunting the space whales while an active galactic crisis is eating the galaxy... Is 2, but since I've gotten that far into a game twice since the Counsel became a thing, that's still WAY too often
This game with all the DLC is so good but so expensive. I get it on sale with just about everything and I still spent more than $100. It was worth the $100 and some dollars for me but then again this is an old game so it probably shouldn’t be as expensive as it is.
So: -Utopia: Essentials -Galactic Paragons: Minor Extras and improves Leaders -Apocalypse: Mainly Planet killers (and doomsday faction) -Megacorp: Optional Economic features and playstyle -Synthetic Dawn: Cyborg factions and Uprisings -Federations: Expanded Federation factions, new politics and some big ships -Nemesis: Ur the bad guy + spying -Overlord: Some unnessential but useful comtemt, Orbital rings and more mega structures -Machine Age: New crisis, new machine race, new ship sets, new good structure -Leviathans: Eldritch horrors and new factions -Distant stars: New anomalies, systems and leviathans -Ancient relics: New Relics, digsites and relic worlds (and lore) -Grand archive: new lore and genetic enhancements, leviathans,crisis and more minor content -Astral plains: more lore and digsites and minor content -First contact: Cloaking and more minor content -Toxides: New species and minor content -Aquatics: new species, water themed ships and minor content -Humanoids: New minor content and CLONE ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC -Necrodes: Minor content, new species, consume other species -Plantoids: New species, plant exonomics -Cosmic storms:dynamic storms, rare. -Cliffoids: New Species
I play the base game and 1. Unity ambitions like desperate measures dont require the apocalypse dlc and 2. The galactic community exists without federations dlc, theres just less resolutions
tbh, Stellaris is a Small Game with the goals of "Deliver peace for the New world" or another Choice "Kill, Consume, Multiply and Conquer" I cant believe I havent played this game for a Long time and now Im Enjoying it!, but I cant spend too much on a VG but I enjoy you and other Content Creators playing Stellaris with all the DLCs! thx for the content @Ep3o. 👍
Most folks only want the dlc cause they feel like they're missing out. I for one quite enjoy the base game on it's own as it already has loads of content to explore before I dive into the dlc.
I was playing with my empire and was recently expanding, and one of the storms that were added by a dlc (I sail the seven seas) came, did horrible damage to both my capital, destroyed the stability, make them riot, and it wasnt leaving, and it ended up finishing in a revolt, which maked me lose the game because my only like, two planets revolted, my colonies didnt even took the time to evolve I play rimworld, and that was single handadly the most BS thing i have ever experienced in any strategy game...in any game, ever
What DLC should I buy? Yes. Which happened to be very expensive when I moved from console to PC on the release of the nemesis DLC, this game is the reason I built a gaming PC.
Only had Utopia, plantoids and Leviathan. Grabbed Federations, Necroids and Ancient relics just last night. Really want to try out Shattered ring asap 😊
I consider myself an organic/hive-mind player and I still find plenty of time to play robots. Machine age is essentially one of the best DLC’s ever, who plays the same empire 100% of the time and never tries new things?
Bought season 8. Love my cubes in balaclavas criminal syndicate. Played machine age a lot, but have not so much interest/free time to see cosmic storms or galactic archives. Basically have all the dlcs but toxiods and aquatics. Not my thing P. S. finally paid the channel fee
Long time console player. I got a laptop recently and wanted to play Stellaris, but the price for the game and all DLCs were too high. Read everywhere that it's best to wait for a sale. So i did that, and now the game and all DLCs were on sale for like 65% off! So I purchased it right away. Unfortunately, the laptop i bought was crap so I had to return it for a refund and bought another one. That one will be here in a few days. Can't wait to play this on PC. The game looks very different from the console version.
i bought them during a cyber monday deal ages ago and i think ive payed like max £150 for everything including a full price version of the game. dont remember exactly what i payed tho
buy season bundles, that way you even get future dlcs for the season, like i got season 8 for an alright price and recieved cosmic storms and grand archive without paying an extra cent
ngl I like cosmic storms. They're like a galactic version of plagues from CK and I want more emergent unpredictable grand strategy style gameplay darn it.
I still don't know if I like Cosmic Storms. The first game I had with it a storm came up in the first decade, went over my complete still small empire, while my direct neighbour wasn't affected by it and then declared war. The next game I didn't see any storm so far. It's a real shame that Lithoids brought so little new. And as far as I knew the species trait is really weak right now.
I personally hate galactic paragons because you get a gazillion notifications for fairly small decisions like constantly. I prefer playing without it for that reason.
I got astral planes as part of a pack before I knew what everything does. Ended up turning it off--I feel like it spams a lot of notifications that aren't impactful in the game and is more enjoyable not to have.
I don't always agree tier / rankings videos, but I found I agreed with everything on this list and the order and advice given. Well done, sir. I 100% agree that Utopia should be rolled into the base game at this point. So many mechanics that make the game fun and actually interesting. I also don't use cloaking against the AI. It just seems more unfair than usual. I also don't own 2 of the last 3 on the list. I only have lithoids for the trait. it really is the only valuable thing in the dlc.
I'm probably never get or turn on storms. Wait does Lithoids not even give you the origin? You can't pick it unless you are, did they just add that to base game but lock it?
The leader rework, habitat rework, and the Paragon DLC almost made me stop playing Stellaris altogether. I find the counsel kind of boring at best, but typically annoying, especially late game where I'm just waiting for agenda cooldowns. Machine Age is what brought me back into playing Stellaris. The music alone is almost worth the price. Become the Crisis isnt a "new" way to build ships, before 2.0, you built ships out of minerals. Dragons Horde was one of the best systems in the game from the sheer amount of minerals. I disagree on Overlord. Playing a game without Hyper Relays or Orbital Rings is almost a necessity at this point, just from needing less pops and having your ships move faster. The Scrappers are also one of my favorite enclaves, because buying 10 corvettes for 1200 energy, especially early game when your alloys are low, can be the difference between being attacked before you're ready or gaining a vassal. Ancient Relics is basically meta right now due to nano cloud missiles being the best weapon in the game. Fear of the Dark is probably the best origin to learn how to ship rush and have an early war. Knights of the Toxic God is still my favorite origin and hope they come out with another origin like it. Hydrocentric is still one of my favorite ascension perks. Being able to expand your planets or just terraform an enemy planet into being your preferred world is just so fun and wish we could get something like it for arctic or desert worlds. Can you play the Calamitous Birth Origin without Lithoids?
there are actually sales now winter sales and next ones are real time strategy fest i assume stellaris DLC gonna be cheap there so buy them if you guys want it starts at 20th 2025
I believe there's just a little mistake on the Season 8 price, it should be around 45€$ (price of all 3 dlcs -20% price) and not 75€$. It goes away in early january btw
Cosmic storms is the most annoying dlc I like one civic that comes with it but the constant alerts of a storm half way across the galaxy is the worst, I’ve turned the storms to their lowest setting but they all pop up in the mid game still
Ep30- My issue with Paradox as of lately, and this is not only with Stellaris, their Add on packs have been horrific lately. This cosmic storms one was a complete embarrassment.
Why did I begin watching this? I already have most DLC except for Grand Archive, Astral Planes and Cosmic Storms. And with every DLC I think most of the time that it isn't worth full price. Even at 50% off I'm still a swabian cheapskate :)
I feel like lithoids should be higher, since they do have an origin, and increased lifespan is very relevant now with leaders. But compared to more recent releases they are a bit on the downside. Happy holidays EP3O
man i wish paradox can release updates like a normal person instead of releasing everything as a dlc because of corpo greed and slowly removing things from the base game (i havent seen a space storm since before the storm dlc)
They don't release everything as a DLC though. I can't think of a single DLC that wasn't accompanied by a free update for the base game. Not to mention everything coming from the Custodian Initiative (also free updates that aren't accompanied by a DLC). They also aren't slowly removing things from the base game. If anything, they are only adding to the base game with each release. I don't mean to be rude, but I'm not sure what you mean with _"release updates like a normal person"._
@@sqocks8254 fair fair, i guess my comment was a bit of an exageration. By the "release updates like a normal person" i meant like put all content into the base game instead of releasing about 20 dlcs for £20 each. It makes the whole experience cost like £300 fully and aint everyone got that money. It also puts people off the game which is annoying when you want to play with friends
@@sqocks8254 did my reply get deleted or did i forget to send it. eh ill just say it again. fair response, perhaps i my comment was a bit of an exageration. By "release updates like a normal person" I meant they should put all the content into normal updates instead of releasing like 20 dlcs which are at least £15 each. A £300 on the full game can be a bit much and not everyone has that money. It can also put people off the game which is annoying when you want to play with friends
Certainly can be if you fall into the category of having a phase/fling with a game and then move on to others. I used to be like that, hand injuries (2 years ago now...) have affected my gametime and types which buying the dlc works better for me 😊
the objectively correct answer is NONE OF THEM 380 FUCKING DOLLARS FOR THE WHOLE GAME IS ABSURD buy the base game and pirate the dlc or just pirate the game idk i'm not your mom

So:
-Utopia: Essentials
-Galactic Paragons: Minor Extras and improves Leaders
-Apocalypse: Mainly Planet killers (and doomsday faction)
-Megacorp: Optional Economic features and playstyle
-Synthetic Dawn: Cyborg factions and Uprisings
-Federations: Expanded Federation factions, new politics and some big ships
-Nemesis: Ur the bad guy + spying
-Overlord: Some unnessential but useful comtemt, Orbital rings and more mega structures
-Machine Age: New crisis, new machine race, new ship sets, new good structure
-Leviathans: Eldritch horrors and new factions
-Distant stars: New anomalies, systems and leviathans
-Ancient relics: New Relics, digsites and relic worlds (and lore)
-Grand archive: new lore and genetic enhancements, leviathans,crisis and more minor content
-Astral plains: more lore and digsites and minor content
-First contact: Cloaking and more minor content
-Toxides: New species and minor content
-Aquatics: new species, water themed ships and minor content
-Humanoids: New minor content and CLONE ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC
-Necrodes: Minor content, new species, consume other species
-Plantoids: New species, plant exonomics
-Cosmic storms:dynamic storms, rare.
-Cliffoids: New Species
I'd switch swap synthetic dawn and machine age because machine age lets you play robots too but it comes with a lot of really good stuff.

They don't release everything as a DLC though.
I can't think of a single DLC that wasn't accompanied by a free update for the base game.
Not to mention everything coming from the Custodian Initiative (also free updates that aren't accompanied by a DLC).
They also aren't slowly removing things from the base game.
If anything, they are only adding to the base game with each release.
I don't mean to be rude, but I'm not sure what you mean with _"release updates like a normal person"._
@@sqocks8254 fair fair, i guess my comment was a bit of an exageration. By the "release updates like a normal person" i meant like put all content into the base game instead of releasing about 20 dlcs for £20 each. It makes the whole experience cost like £300 fully and aint everyone got that money. It also puts people off the game which is annoying when you want to play with friends
@@sqocks8254 did my reply get deleted or did i forget to send it. eh ill just say it again.
fair response, perhaps i my comment was a bit of an exageration. By "release updates like a normal person" I meant they should put all the content into normal updates instead of releasing like 20 dlcs which are at least £15 each. A £300 on the full game can be a bit much and not everyone has that money. It can also put people off the game which is annoying when you want to play with friends

Ah, I see.
Yeah, those are good points you make.
And lastly; _Happy Holidays :3_
@@sqocks8254 happy holidays too!
Too late I already bought them all
Don’t buy the DLC, get the subscription for three dollars a month
At one point you will pay more in the subscription than having purchased all the DLC's.
@ yes, but they would have to stop releasing DLC’s. Each DLC they release costs like five months of the subscription.
52 seconds ago is crazy
Buy nothing. Pirate or avoid completely
The answer is easy. Just get the monthly subscription. It’s the cheapest option by far, even in the long run.
Certainly can be if you fall into the category of having a phase/fling with a game and then move on to others.
I used to be like that, hand injuries (2 years ago now...) have affected my gametime and types which buying the dlc works better for me 😊
The answer? None.
I am still waiting for them to fix first contact + other bugs.
Haven’t touched the game in a year and still not missing it.
>hasn't played in a year
>complains about bugs that probably don't exist anymore
I just use subscription, I dont play so often, it is great for me
at this point game should be free. because its uselless without dlc.
Damn you glazing these guys, somehow you’re saying storms are cool
Bought the game...too complicated
There's so many errors
Arr, or something
Me who buyed cosmic storms dlc just to complete my collection of dlc's:
the objectively correct answer is NONE OF THEM
380 FUCKING DOLLARS FOR THE WHOLE GAME IS ABSURD
buy the base game and pirate the dlc
or just pirate the game idk i'm not your mom
9th
just pirate them tbh
Buy them all .... Stellaris is almost a religion.
