Many of the reviews here claim the game crashes often. I have the Steam version and it's been running for hours without any crashes. Loaded up a saved game no crashes. All the comments about this game needing so many dlc's isn't a new thing in gaming. The pricing of the dlcs is one main frustration I have here (when not on sale) but often game companies create dlcs to enhance the base game years down the road. Paradox games is notorious for their multiple dlcs which are all necessary if you want a great experience. I've been playing Gal Civ 3 with Retribution, Crusade and Mercenaries and it's a great experience. Get them on a sale and you got a deal.
