Stellaris is a really living game, it changes constantly. Not really sure what is part of free update and what is in DLC, but additions are as usual significant and being able to start as a vassal and work your way up or out from it changes beginning of the game A LOT which kinda needed update from "the usual".
Uhmm... yeah, I should have read the reviews on Steam. In the current from (premiere day-ish) trains are just not worth it and DLC adds nothing really above them.
DLC really brings freshness to it, more maps all at the same time to fill in slow times on your main colony. Tho underground is frustrating at first, you are constantly finding caveins and can't go anywhere until you get magical tech. Oh, and it crashes a lot currently, so wait few more patches.
Well, if you are into playing in Balkan area, then it's really worth it. Otherwise, you can skip it and you won't loose out on anything that important.
Historical speeches in really good quality really add to the game, putting you right in those times and places, fighting for the Allies (in case of this DLC). Worth it unless you kill your game audio and use music from somewhere else.
Game is really easy and quite... overadvertised. Definetely lags behind games like XCOM when it comes to difficulty rating, but otherwise it's ok. Really good music and graphics in it, puts you right into the times.
New species type which is... interesting, a bit hive-mindy so if you are into this sort of stuff, it will be fun. They are slightly unqiue, but not sure if as much as full price would require.
I would call it watered down DLC - you get some small additions here and there, but otherwise it's not a game changer. Only if you are really running out of new things to do in Cities Skylines. Or on big promotion.
This game is just plain AMAZING. Difficulty of entry thanks to the new style of tooltips that you can explore deeper and deeper is MUCH lower than before. Also, graphics is a beauty, gameplay is dangerous tho. I started playing one evening, just blinked (I swear) and it was 4am.
It seems that Paradox is milking now just last drops out of the EU4 cow. I think that unless this is on really good promo, you can safely skip this DLC.
