Stellaris

Unfortunately I can't recommend the game in it's current state. There's still bugs in there which can crop up frequently and worst of all the game speed gets slower and slower the longer you play. The whole decision to use the Victoria 3 pop system was flawed from the beginning, forcing the game to track to many things at once. Same with modifiers, there's to many. Generalizations would have been better. There's to much stuff to keep track off, when a simplification would have been easier on the system. I'll also say this after playing the game for so long, the clicking in this game is intense and annoying. With Stellaris version 4.x they also introduced kinda a simple puzzle game... which annoys me greatly. There's a clear path to building "effective" planets. Unfortunately it's no fun. And the constant clicking for upgrading buildings is also no fun either in the long run. The less is said about the multiplayer performance the better. In short: It's atrocious. Even at the start of a round it's not uncommon that de-syncs happen, which only gets worse and worse the longer you play. And I usually play Stellaris multiplayer with one other buddy who likes the game. Stellaris in it's current state is a hard pass for me... and that after 1250+ hours in the game. Truly sad to see it in it's current state. And at this point I don't see how they'll reverse course, unless they go for another complete revamp. Great ideas in the game, but unfortunately the vision outperforms the actual performance of the game.

Game is not in a good place at all. Population is the foundation of the entire economy, and population growth is about fifty times slower than everything else in the game. If you waited to fill all your job slots on your planets, endgame year would happen first.

Once a fun game, now a cash-cow made of AI.

I really wish I could just outright not update my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game because every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ time I update it breaks everything and I need to redo my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ modlist. ♥♥♥♥ you, Valve. ♥♥♥♥ you and your stupid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mandatory updates. And also ♥♥♥♥ you Paradox for breaking ♥♥♥♥ every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ update. And also ♥♥♥♥ you for making 90% of the game locked behind DLC because you're a greedy lot of bastards who only care about money like some sort of inbred Ferengi cuck. Go to hell, you waste of space. Don't purchase this game if you intend on actually having fun. The base game is dull and you need either mods that KEEP ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ BREAKING WITH EACH ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ UPDATE or spend 500 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DOLLARS on DLC that should have been a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ update.

My favourite grand strategy game

Всё как у парадоксов повелось. Весь контент в лейтгейме который играется 1 тик в 30 минут. За то длс насрали. А так круто. Если есть с кем поиграть в мультиплеер вообще кайф. Длс покупать не советую если вы понимаете о чём я... Тебе ещё комп обновлять если осмелишься брать эту игру.

I do NOT like the changes to fleets and economy management Used to be big space battles towards the endgame that made getting there worth it, now it's like half that and feels like a chore to get through just to fight the crisis. And managing planets was easy. You settle, you build it up, and a couple decades later it becomes productive. Simple as. Now I have no workers anywhere unless I use slaves or otherwise micromanage the population of every planet so that the worker population can catch up with specialists. It's exhausting and I hate it. I don't care if this increased performance, and no, this didn't add "personality" to every planet. It just made them all likewise frustrating at their lack of productivity and the constant need to micromanage the population. Planets probably had more personality back when things were simple. Paradox, I beg you, add a classic settings toggle
