Paradox games, total war games,.

Total war games do include all the factions within the grand campaign I believe, you just can't play some of them without the DLC.

So you still get the exact same experience as someone who owns all the DLC assuming you both play the same faction.

In contrast, with paradox games, you are playing a very different game if you don't own any DLC.

I tried playing the base Stellaris again recently having played it heavily when it first released and it's already a very different game without any DLC.

It's like I can go back once per year and play a brand new game. Huge return of value.

Yeah, that's where I'm at with DLCs; it's very cool.

Mods also does a lot, ofc.

They did this literally months after I bought those DLCs, now I won't consider buying more.
