How is the state post patch?

[Shrike]

Thinking of getting Overlord. However.

One thing I have learnt in my years of being a Stellaris fan is that it's best to wait until a patch after (or an entire year in the case of Megacorp) a big content DLC such as overlord. On paper the mechanics look interesting and would add stuff to my playstyle, but the question is are things working properly?

ps

Thanks devs for the additional automation. That's always appreciated.

Play the game and find out for yourself.

Well that is kind of the point of this thread, to decide whether I should buy Overlord. It is a little difficult to understand how the mechanics work if I haven't bought the DLC yet

Ah, didn't realize you were deciding on the DLC. We get so many "Is the game worth playing now" threads ad nauseum that I tend to have an automatic response to it.

Overall, I think it's a good purchase. Having the vassal mechanics be more fleshed out is the best selling point of the DLC. It still needs some tweaking and balancing here and there, but the devs have been actively working on it (though there may be a lull for now as it's summer vacation over there).

Ahh Thanks, sounds like a the perfect addition to my despotic Commonwealth of Man. I'm not too concerned about little tweaks here and there just wanted to be sure the mechanics work as intended. I'll get it after work.
