Stellaris Reviews

4.0 is an unplayable atm can't play with friends because of constant resync issues. Wish they'd spend more time fixing and improving the game rather than rebuilding and shipping it for what the fourth time now? I do really enjoy having to relearn the game again! =/ and on top of that the dlc always felt half baked ei hiveminds have been in-game almost since the start and just recently gained access to auto migration but for years as a hive if you wanted to keep growing you'd spend most of your time manually resettling pops and this new dlc introducing bio ships a fleet that grows? Cool concept but if i have to manually re-add juvenile ships to my fleet manager after every battle your waisting my time

LOVE THIS GAME its one of thoughts sims where you can lose hours in the mechanics of battle , constructing and building your empire

Used to be great. However, with the latest DLC the devs promised massive performance increases - what we got instead was the worst regression we have seen in a decade. It's completely insane how bad the game runs from mid-game onward even on a top tier PC. Looking at paradox' other recent actions, this is not an isolated incident at all and likely to keep getting worse as the top talent leaves. Consequently, time to flee the sinking ship. Was lots of fun, but goodbye. Don't touch until it's actually playable.

I've gotten my soul partially sucked away by this game. Stellaris makes you lose all track of space and time, and just as you are about to log off: your economy crashes and you need to spend 4 more hours fixing it only to get invaded and wiped off the face of the map by a slightly larger empire. 10/10, would recommend.

I have played this game in two short bursts. It is fun but it is more addicting than a factory game. I forgot why I uninstalled it the first time and I paid the price of my free time. I've literally only played 3 games from start to finish and I'm already at 243 hours Good game, but way too addicting

Game is currently unplayable and has been for the past 3 months, glad the dev team is having a nice holiday though

Only game where you can shove 1 trillion people into a brain frying torture computer for science! 😁👍

The game where interstellar freaks have the time of their lives, ngl listening to interstellar music and playing this game is a different vibe 🤍🤍

Stay far away. I mean it, do not buy this game right now, do not play this game right now. Stellaris used to be an amazing game, but the developers ruined it with patch 4.0, they broke the AI to an unreasonable extend, the balance is all kinds of atrocious, and there are plenty of other issues, while some ancient bugs that have never been fixed for years on end still remain an issue. In short, 4.0 is a complete mess of a patch that turned an amazing game into a pile of crap. This patch needed A LOT more work, and should never have been released in such a sorry state, even now MONTHS later it has barely gotten any better. Paradox loves to nickle and dime their players more and more for each new bit of content, their DLC policy is greedy, and terrible, anti consumer at this point really, but usually they at least deliver something worthwhile. Recently however they developed a serious habit of delivering things of heavily declining quality, rushed, unfinished, unstable, damn near unplayable, not to mention the sorry state of the multiplayer in terms of stability. Paradox can NOT be allowed to just get away with this, or their bad habits will only get worse and worse. Do not support this game until they fixed it. If they actually ever bother to fix it, this review will definitely get changed, but until then, not recommended in the least.

I really like this game, but it has a lot of DLC bloat that makes it confusing for new people. Just buy the base game and if any of the DLCs really catch your attention, buy them on sale.
