I pirated /played this game since 1.9.1 and every year i try newer version so i can tell what new stuff i liked and what i didn't.
>new stuff in +
more races, variations on them, new diplomacy options, espionage, corporations, all of that was great, objectively better AI, I can't deny. more things to do.
>new stuff in -
adding perk system, same boring starting quests, more adaptation of the game for multiplayer, removal of other space travel options from the start of the game, removal of tiles, game became more buggy with each new patch and ran worse and worse.
>things i would implement
redesign planetary invasions/battles system
focus on bugfixing because game is engaging, and it's sad to see its current state.
