Stellaris

I have just clocked 2,700 hours.

It's become much harder to complete games now. Victory is based purely on score now.

I enjoy the various dynamics of the game, but it becomes very laggy but late game despite recent supposed performance improvements.

It may seem weird to quote myself, but it's been nearly a year since I made this post and now I'm at 3022 hours.

Since the latest update, I have played 5 substantive games, 1 of them winning as the crisis.
 
Currently playing two MP campaigns using mods.

In one game I'm a trader that has specialized in ecology. In the other I'm a syndicalist theocratic republic specialized in the economy.
 
I find it difficult to stick with a game long enough that I finish it before the next update. And then the next update drops, massively changes certain game elements, and makes me want to start over!
 
I'd recommend it if you like space 4x games (Master of Orion etc). I come back to it every few months and start up a new game to try something different. I rarely finish a game but do enjoy the different journeys it takes you on...

I am confused that there are so many x-pack. Are any of these vital, or can I just get the base game?
 
I never saw game which had so many changes, including fundamental mechanics, after release (and I am not talking about additional mechanics from DLCs, just basic, vanilla mechanics like what resources there are, how You build buildings etc). Every time I played, I tried to learn the game from the start.

Changes for the better?

Get ready, they have announced Stellaris 4.0!
Changes the way pops work.
A redesign of several of the basic systems of the game.
Going to have to learn it all over again..... Should be fun!
 
iirc (that's a big if, though), Galactic Civ 3 suffered from the same issue: later updates making sweeping changes to the core game.

Is that a Space-4X curse ? :lol:
 
Dtelkaris essentially has been 3 games at this point.

Scanning planets hasn't been changed to much from release.

Let's hope not! :eek:
They seem to be listening to the player base? Amazing after all these years.....
