Yeah, but it's starting to feel like there's more downsides. They've put out so much DLC that they're literally offering a monthly subscription service to get access to all the DLC. The new DLC costs $25 (base game costs $40), and comes with a game-breaking patch that couldn't have been shipped without knowing there were glaring issues, and a disclosure that AI was used to make some of the assets. It's getting harder to feel that you're seen as a playerbase instead of a cash cow.
I was pretty ambivalent about the subscription. I don't like subs in general, but I joined stellaris a little late and the amount of money to get all the DLC is very daunting. I can see how as a new player it would be a good offer.
That being said rent to own is always going to be how it should be imo.
