      But i also look (nowadays) if i play 50 hours for a €25,- dlc it only is 0,50 pro hour. Compare that to buying a beer in a pub. (But that is for me, if it goes of food i wouldn't do it)

      The Paradox model of DLC is a great system for long term support of good games.
      The downside is that people then defend a lackluster/barebones opening release with "well, the DLC will fix it", which shouldn't be the case when the base/core game is still a full price product, and the first DLC is months away(and might not but enough "meat" in all the right places in one go anyway)

      Completing the new Player Crisis path leaves your empire as a new FE when you "win". You do not play as this FE, you won. This FE does not appear in later games*. You can play as another empire after winning, including one of your vassals, or never complete the crisis and enjoy being a pesudo-FE for as long as you want.
      *5% of FEs have always been able to spawn as a pre existing empire on your empire list if their ethics match. This can be vanilla or player made empires set to spawn but not force spawn into the game. This is how super rare Human FEs can spawn.

    I think we need more endgame systems. Something that uses the crisis system but not necessarily a crisis. For example, forming the first galactic republic/empire, solidifying your power over the galaxy. That or being a megacorp, engineering a galactic economic crisis for your rivals to the point where you buyout their empires.

    • @102728
      @102728 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm back to the original rome total war myself for that very reason. There are so many features in stellaris that it obfuscates the game. I've tried again and again, but I'm failing to immerse myself and build any connection to my empire or the galaxy it lives in. On paper it should scratch my sci-fi and strategy itches, but in practice it just doesn't.
      Two of the most important failures of stellaris imo are that the AI empires do not behave like an entity like your own empire, but are rather static and rigid. Like dolls. The other is that basic information of 'how does my empire measure up?' is something you need to dig for, and not for any good reason. I see some numbers at the top of my screen. Are those numbers good? Are they bad? Where is the measuring stick in the game?
      I've bought most dlc up until the last year or so, where no matter the hype or how good a dlc is supposed to be, the core of the game just doesn't entice me anymore.
      And yes I liked the tile system a lot for how visual it was, and the naturally projecting borders even more. Though I can accept them doing away with those, it's the issues above that mean the game just isn't for me. And that's like 1k hours in lol

      Suffice to say they don’t make them like Master of Orion. If you’ve never played that classic, go and find it somewhere and marvel at how much information can be displayed with a few bar graphs. And how engaging and significant ship design can be. 4x sci-fi done right.

I hate the swarms of ships and going off fleet count for a win. 🙄 Id prefer an option for real battle like Total War gives and if you opt in you get a MOO type interface where you can actually place ships, do formations, use cloak and teleporation... stuff you simply cannot do here.

    Wow, a Paradox game where expansion has actually bunch of content. Didn't know it is a thing that still happens.

    I hate the fact that for us to get such a good DLC, we need to have a bad/backlash from the previews one DLC. Its just paradox things same shit happened with eu4 and Leviathan DLC

  • @lamename2010

    Going to be honest, all the previews i had seen got me to cough up for season 08, because the machine age just looks so good. Having played it some already, it doesn't just look good, but plays great too. Truly slams it out of the park and makes me wonder why the rest of PDX titles seem to be in a slum for the last year or so.

    Im very happy with the expansion. If they put out another astral planes i would have given up on the game

    I bought the season pass - first time I ever did that in any game.
    40 Euro for this DLC + 2 more DLCs, this DLC is easiyl worth 20 and the others will be worth 10/each hopefully.
    I didn't buy Astral Planes, but I reward high quality DLCs.

    I am disappointed the new ascensions arent part of synthetically ascended bio empires. I really thought the origin all about digitizing would end with the virtual ascension.
