My problem with Paradox DLCs policy is just that I don't know if the games are planned with all the content and then split into dlcs or if the dlcs are created afterwards by people having new ideas and implementing them.

No game is planned for 8-10 years of gameplay. I know people love to rag on Paradox. It's the cool thing to do. The truth however is the DLCs are the way Paradox supports their games for so much longer than most any other studio. They don't plan a game and then cut a bunch of stuff out to use as DLCs later. DLCs are evolutions of the game, continued support and features based on community feedback and how the game evolves over time. Everyone gets the free features which is great and the sale of the DLCs allows them to do that. If they didn't do this then PDX games would be like 95% of the rest, supported for a couple years then a sequel sold instead.

@@Himmyjewett I honestly think CK3 is a product of its time, coming from someone who indulges in both publisher's games, there's no way Paradox could've thought of this before Activision did and I think everything before CK3 is legitimately just products that are created over-time.

I believe it has become part of the design philosophy. I experienced it with Stellaris. If the vanilla version is good, the additions have a value, all is well. But if Fans get the feeling too much is missing, this will cause trouble. I am unsure about CK3 at the moment, as it should be very good while I would miss some content I like in CK2. I'd didn't get it (yet). With Vic3... I have played Vic2 too little to feel I will like it. So not for me for now. The issues with Imperator Rome still sit in my bones. It is not so bad, but not so great either. It feels like wasted potential as the antique era is actually a great canvas for a grand strategy game. For now I keep playing mostly HoI4 and Stellaris.

I have them all, but it was an enjoyable thing to remember how EU has been developed. Thanks!

I would say the dlcs for Eu4 adds so much that we take certain mechanics for granted. They do seem to be overpriced but it's better to have all of them than some of them because of how much it affects playing the game. They may not be flashy but they sure do a lot.

enlightened: pirate dlc for free

Not everything you said were a part of the dlc but were a free update

I am at the fence with Leviathan. How good is it now after having been fixed, if it is? Curious about how Lions of the North will turn out.

I would have put Dharma higher. When I was a new player, I noticed a reoccurring pop-up that said I could upgrade my trade centres. Dharma is the dlc that actually enables me to do it. Got it for that reason alone.

I bought the Base game and Art of War. But I feel like I am missing some important things. Please correct me if I am wrong but I want the DLC because of the following reasons: 1. Art of War - everyone likes it. 2. Cossacks - allowed you to call in your ally to war with a promise of land. 3. The Right of Man - Great Power actions which allow you to influence nations. Also, tell your AI how to fight in your war. 4. Emperor - allows you to see Hegemony and extra diplomatic features with your subjects. (In Steam, it has Mixed review, which I don't know why). 5. Mandate of Heaven - allows automated diplomacy. There are a lot of DLC, eh... Be funny if I buy them all and EU5 comes out. Any other suggestions?
