DLC itself is one of the best so far, up there with Machine Age. Looking forward to the Psionic Expansion, hoping its on the same levels as the New Biological Ascension paths. 4.0 However is more bugs than patch, and definitely needs work. New Pop System I can see what they're going for, but unfortunately it does not work as it should. Elite Pops grow too quickly and outpace the available jobs, and everybody immediately rushes to specialist jobs and leaves the worker jobs empty which is a major problem for resource production. If the DLC could be reviewed without the stain of 4.0, easy 5 stars. But 4.0 needs more work done. Also disappointing to see Paradox start to go down the Gen-AI Path, as the Art of Stellaris has been one of its strongest aspects and I sincerely hope they don't abandon that for easy to spot AI Drivel.
was a good game, but incredibly disapointed to see "generative" "ai" content worm into one of my favourite games via the most recent dlc. they're only making justifications for its use to see what they can get away with, testing the waters. if you can't be bothered to create your own art, whats the point of making games?
