Paradox needs to stop butchering games and selling the pieces as DLC with a 100% price markup so that they can run constant "sales". It's a dishonest and anti-consumer practice.

Have had Stellaris in my library for over a year now and felt like it was truly daunting until coming across your videos yesterday. Returning to the game a few hours later fully understanding how to play and finding the ability to keep my save going on without getting confused was an awesome feeling! The next day I go to look up DLC and here you are posting 6 hours prior about it. Thanks for all the useful info!

Mostly agree with everything here, but ranking Nemesis so high is strange to me. It just adds 3 different playstyles basically. I agree Espionage can be really useful (i personally try to use it alot and only play single player) but it mostly isnt impactful enough to warrant doing the operations. Its not a bad DLC but I think there is alot of foundational stuff like Federations, Distant Stars, Overlord, Relics, Leviathans that one should get first. Unless you really want to be the crisis or the star wars empire ofc. Thats hella fun Also very glad to see you give so much love to Synthetic Dawn.

9:20, you can create all the empires the host can create

I would find it really good if Paradox inserts a system like HoI4. That you either buy the DLCs or you pay monthly for as long as you want. That would generally upgrade it especially for the people who play 1-2 months and then take a break. They would only have to buy the subscription if they want to have DLCs and not spend 100-200€.

This is the 3rd dlc tier vid I've watched before buying and the 1st that actually explained gameplay, ty. Also the others were really multiplayer biased and kinda talk you out of the single player dlcs. Of course overlord sounds like they just fixed a function bug of ai not participating in vassalage and they sold a patch as a dlc...it is what it is 😂

I'm waiting for it all to go back on sale before I pick them all up.

Tried playing multiple times but it was just too much or too hard but got stoned the other night and now I actually have an economy but I’m still struggling a bit with managing the planet mostly the locked blocks should I clear them all out with the city blocks or ya idk shit like that no pain no gain

how do expansions work in this game? Do they all add stuff at once, or you choose which one to play and are mutually exclusive? I only played base game years ago, thinking of buying it on steam now

Good question...I recently purchased a few DLC's and now my game crashes.....all the time and never did before. Cant figure out which one is causing so I can uninstall it.

You don't need to own species or story packs to use them in a multi game just create the empire in the lobby

One question I a noob and a new dlc coming out witch best dlc to start like fresh start

I downloaded Stellaris on steam and all DLC but the paradox luancher won't recognise where stellaris was installed. Do I ignore the launcher app and use Steam or can I fix this?

Honestly, Stellaris and the DLCs goes on sale a LOT and the sales are genuinely good too.. 25 - 75% depending on what event is going on. I'm waiting for the Autumn/Halloween sales to pop up for the last couple DLCs I need because Stellaris will probably go on sale again. One just finished though so maybe it won't be till Christmas now but still, it's honestly worth waiting for sales tbh because there's enough in the game to keep you going until the next sale since they happen every couple of months anyway!

8:09 Montu has done testing with the Espionage system, and he concluded that you can NEVER break apart a Federation with the Smear Campaigns, and breaking a Defensive Pact is basically not worth it considering the time and resources it takes. I imagine it _could_ work in an edge case where a Federation exists that happens to have members with opposing ethics, but again it'd take more time than it would to just build a stronger fleet, or maybe even a stronger alliance

@@MihaelGeng You're welcome, though there has been an update. Honestly, there are only 2 uses I get out of Nemesis almost every playthrough: Galactic Emperor, and the Consume Star operation. Becoming the Crisis is fun, but it's only something you'll do a couple of playthroughs, because once you Become the Crisis, everyone hates you forever and you're basically diplo-locked out of the game, so really most of the time you'll eventually go on to either become the Custodian or the Emperor, though technically the Custodian is stronger because you can have the GDF annnd your Federation Fleet, so that's 2 free 800 cap fleets as opposed to just 1, but either/or. If you have Apocalypse as well, and you manage to kill a Stellar Devourer, and you choose Retrieve the Egg Sac, you can do the Consume Star operation, which kills all the planets/habitats in someone else's capital system. It's a very cool operation that speaks for itself, but eventually they will nullify it after the 1st or 2nd operation. Wait for it to go on sale.

Buy a few at a time, CD keys at a fraction of the price. Otherwise you end up starting multiple campaigns (most still work on saves but I find its best to start a new game to get the full benefits of the dlc) in order to experience each new dlc you buy. Or you end up half way through a campaign and realise that features of a particular dlc would have been really useful or fun to have in that campaign.

This is great advice. Any update for Stellaris: First Contact. And I noticed you have not made content in a year ... are you still alive?

I think the early game complexity and this DLC sprawl and cost of entry is what hurts the game the most. Right now it still costs $57 for a 7 yr old game and $367 ($330 with the massive 10% discount!) to get the entire ultimate bundle. I feel like it should be a $20-30 base game at this point (if not F2P!) and less than $100 for the entire bundle. If anything, they should be rolling all of the older DLC into the base game every couple years, as there are some fundamental features in early DLC you just wouldn't want to play the game without any longer imo.

I keep expecting George Clooney to walk across the room in the background! ;-) And yes, an updated comment about recent DLC releases would be much appreciated, especially as you promised it. 🙂

I just pirated it

Pro Tip : while some Paradox Dlc is great, none of it is worth the full price they ask for

federations are terrible, i had to disable the whole dlc because my small 6 faction games just end up as one federation at peace all the time. boring

Why are you afraid to flat-out say something is bad? You don't need to sugarcoat every point of criticism with a positive spin because it really detracts from the integrity of the video. Also, for Apocalypse you said, "I just don't think it's the greatest DLC of all time" instead of saying it's passable or ranking it. The issue is that by using that metric, none of the DLCs qualify, and that statement does not set the relative rank of that DLC over other alternatives. It just says it isn't the greatest, which none of them are. But this might just be hype-building, full-positivity ad shilling of a promo video.

I hate when games like this make a bunch of dlcs for you to buy, like why not just update the game it's like the sims 4 or arma 3

Save your money, the game is crap. They turned into a board game... where space has choke points. The stupidest feature in any game, and even worse in a space game that expands a galaxy.
