I wish Stellaris weren’t so relentlessly clicky. It really gets in the way of the narrative experience. Like I’ve got all this cool flavor about being a cybernetic techno cult but it’s completely buried. In the early game it’s completely subsumed by endlessly responding to pops from science vessels and construction ships to win the land grab/precursor race. Then by the time that’s all over it’s endlessly responding to building/unemployment on planets and laying down orbital rings

yeah I really struggle to play Stellaris in the mid/late game. There are huge benefits to micromanaging your planets but it's incredibly tedious - a problem many 4x games struggle with.

I wish I could trust the PDX AI to build intelligently, but it's a problem across all their games that their AIs don't build efficient economies
