Turning on the easy mode
Honestly, the extra stars are mostly there for the work put into writing new events, though some definitely need proofreading in english. Even a non-native speaker/writer like me can spot several typos. In short, this DLC is mainly there to turn on the easy mode. While new events bring more dynamics to the game, they rarely make you run into choices that come at a cost - instead these new events are largely bringing for nothing either positive outcomes, either more positive outcomes: free courtiers, free laws, free unrest removal, free culture gains, free military units... The extra traits are welcome for more diversity, and you're less likely to stall for time until you get your ideal ones since several of the new events force the acquisition of traits onto your leader. Still, the righteous one to reduce unrest over your whole nation does seem to appear often, again it feels as if you turned on the easy mode. On the bright side, the cost of this DLC is low and feels worth the return. Yet everything becomes suddenly far easier as I almost never have anymore a city at unrest lv5 or above; fortunately you can turn the DLC off at the start of a new game, so it's worth testing!
