      Stellaris in particular was a absolutely wild release even by Paradox standards. They were reworking core features up until fairly recently, after it had been out for years. It’s essentially a completely different game than it was at launch lol. It also had completely dogshit performance for years and years.

      CK3 at least felt like a big step up from CK2. It ran well, and had some actually interesting new features in hooks and lifepaths (or whatever they were called).
