Oh yeah I remember when I’d only played Victoria II (Which I’d pirated anyway) and thought hey this is a really great game development company and acquired a legal copy of Stellaris when it was on sale and my coworkers were like… A Paradox game? You rich? And… Then I watched all the new DLCs for Stellaris roll in over the years. I bought maybe 3 or 4 of them on sale and tbf I think I have like 150 hours in it so it’s not too bad, but honestly I don’t think I’ll ever buy another Paradox game.
They now have a subscription option and season packs… Eugh
Many of them are just basically mods that add a new unit or some bullshit. What annoys me in lists like that is not knowing at a glance which ones add new mechanics and features and which are just minor little things like tue aforementioned units.
Paradox’s whole thing is releasing as many DLCs for a title as they possibly can. Just look at every one of their games’ list of DLCs.

It makes the game feel incomplete when you see DLC lists like that.

Across the Obelisk player here, can confirm.
The Paradox publisher sale is currently on Steam. 90% off so you can pay a measly €125 for the complete Stellaris pack now.
Bought most dlc on release, been playing since beta 🤷 next one got me so hyped too 🫣
