    This expansion improved on the main game substantially. It adds more challenges and features to really add to the core gameplay. A great addition and an improvement.

    Now I know that critics never play games. This DLC is riddled with gamebreaking bugs like factions not working, Ai stopping building farms and starving its pop into revolution and many others.

    Stellaris best dlc so far. Ascension perks are game changers. They offer substantial change to gameplay and a lot of rp potential. Civics are great and offer a bit diffrent start. Hive minds are basic but they are worth one campagin. The price is bit high but with frequent sales its pretty fair.

    This expansion is intuitive and right next step. The game still gets repetitive rather quickly and becomes dull. Hopefully the next expansion adds something to make the story component of events feel better. Also hopefully there will be some UI improvements as the current setup hides the important knobs and displays the mid importance ones. Lots of potential still and forward progress.

    Stellaris: Utopia fills out a game that was already bursting. In the time I've had with it, I've played planet-devouring swarms, robotic foxes, militant birdmen, and slaving psionic jellyfish… things. While combat remains a sticking point, and hive minds feel like they have a ways to go before the idea is fully-formed, there is more potential than ever to do what the title does best – tell a story.

    Utopia brings a whole new depth to Stellaris with its mega constructions, traditions and the new political system.

    If you’re an existing Stellaris player, the Utopia expansion opens up a bunch of options that didn’t exist before and is well worth the investment. If you haven’t jumped on the stellar bandwagon yet – there’s no better time. Stellaris is a very strong space strategy game that has flown a bit under the radar, and anyone who enjoys games like Civilization or Masters of Orion will likely be quite taken by Stellaris.
