Stellaris released 10 years ago today

Also I know some of you all running genocidal empires, I don’t judge (usually)

Also how many times have they reworked surface building, I picked it up again about a month ago and hey yeahhh let’s go read some patch notes, good times

Also at least it let me craft my berry own socialist polity

    I don’t have several hundred dollars to spend on all the mandatory DLC I don’t have.

    I haven’t bought an expansion in at least 5 years and thus don’t own the most recent 19 DLC or so.

    If by mandatory you mean “considered a must have” the serious stellaris heads may have some insights on that. AFAIK no DLC is literally mandatory

      I meant in the way Paradox games will make their DLC a core part of the new game mechanics and then lock those mechanics for the player if they don’t have the DLC, but not the computer players. It isn’t as bad in Stellaris as it is in EU4, where the game literally becomes impossible to win without the DLC, but it still is a shitty business model that I hate.
