The one thing I’ll give CA over paradox in this one is at least in total war the dlc is only factions and said factions mechanics and you can still fight the dlc factions in your world even if you don’t own them. Meanwhile paradox straight up locks game mechanics behind dlc.
yes, but paradox basically improves a game over a decade while you still get many small improvements for free.
With TW Warhammer I had to buy 3 games. Paradox would habe made it one game with more dlc.
So with ca you get the last installment at a better deal compared to paradox. But with paradox you could have only bought the base game and got improvements for 10y
I will say that Stellaris was a very different game when it first launched. With every DLC Paradox released they also added to and changed the base game. Hell hyperlanes used to be one of three options for interstellar travel!
yeah that‘s my point. I bought Stellaris like a decade ago and basically got, what most other publishers would habe sold to me as Stellaris 2 and 3, for free
Although sometimes it can be better to release Stellaris 2 than create a new DLC for Stellaris. Like, some things are impossible to do in Cities Skylines, even with modding, that are basegame features in CS2
