The added flavor for the Commonwealth nations is essential for any HOI4 fan, however I would suggest picking this DLC up at a discount if possible as it feels marginally overpriced at $15. Definitely still worth getting, though, so don't ignore it!

Hideo Kodima is good for the nearly thirty year series in the best possible way. Phantom Pain is surprising and tense, impressing with trisk, but above all, he really enjoys. It's all that stealth can play in the open world, and expect players to get the most out of it.

Recently, the conveyor of LEGO games fails and produces not very high-quality games, but this part came out even when the series had a lift, in general if you like this series, then skip this part is not worth it.

IMO there are 2 major features for this DLC:
1) making the council more important in the early game
- this is done by using 2 mechanics, powerful vassals will want to be on the council (even if they suck at the job) and making the council have better skills. THis way you have to think on whether you want a good council member or cede tot he demands of your vassals

2)reworking the children growth so it is harder to make the "perfect" son

If you don't like some of the additions you can disable them in the rules section.

What i like the most is that it makes the early game much harder to expand without thinking because powerfull vassals will push for a council that has the authority above the king while if you can keep your vassals weak you can rule like the game before the DLC

Much needed interface improvements, and solid game play. Worth every $.

Do you want to play as a robot empire whose only desire is to collect all sentient species and care for them in elaborate little utopian colonies? Those silly humanoids don't need freedom, they just need to be saved from their own worst impulses. Or maybe you want to assimilate other species into your cyborg collective? Or maybe all non-mechanical life forms are inferior and need to be purged? Whatever floats your boat, this DLC will expand Stellaris with plenty of additional content, options and challenges. If you enjoy Stellaris, this just makes it even better.
