And the less is said about things that were once paid DLC and then became free content for everyone a year or two later, the better, since it's an equivalent of jet fuel for flame wars. On the other hand, nobody is forcing anyone to get all DLCs, but that means missing a lot of content. Not helping matters is how often changes brought by new pack are cosmetic or add just some minor gameplay changes or UI help (like a new button to do something automatically, rather than file-editing), with that one, single important change that's still fundamental. Pretty much the entire older section of the fanbase has nothing but disdain toward the DLC model, as it charges utterly ridiculous sums to unlock the whole game.

And then there is still the issue of the paywall.

All in all, this drastically increased the time for delivering each new change into Paradox games. It also made modding needlessly complex, as modders faced the exact same issue, while not being a game studio with money and manpower for longer crunch time. With just a few initial DLCs crunch time spiked, as there were numerous iterations of the game and combinations of DLC content to test, check and work with. With the DLC system, all of that goes to a bin, since DLCs are disjoined from each other and their content exists in a bubble. Money aside, this leads to much higher stability of games, since there was just one existing iteration and all gameplay mechanics were always in interaction, making both achieving stability and debugging easier and faster. Before the game, any sort of new content was added by overhaul patches, which meant every player had access to the exact same content and it wasn't hidden behind extra paywall.

The concept of adding new content via DLC system itself is probably the biggest issue in the grand picture of things, spreading to other Paradox games, but it started with CKII.

This came full circle in Monks and Mystics, where Paradox intentionally shot for this trope by making approximately 60% of the DLC's new content about the Satanist secret society while the actual historical societies (like Order of Saint Benedict and the Hermetic Order) received almost no content by comparison.

This was even mentioned specifically as a feature on the DLC release trailer.

The most loved addition of Way of Life is not the new Focus system, nor the addition of new events specifically for roleplayers, but the ability for any character to seduce their sister.

Also, Holy buffed all pagans by revamping the pagan reformation system, allowing the reformer to customise the reformed pagan faith. Eldership ensures that one heir inherits the realm., and a warrior lodge society to all pagan religions (except Aztecs).

To counter the accusation that Germanic pagans note the Norse religion the religion was renamed as Norse as a culture is also present in-game got all the attention while other pagans got shafted, Holy Fury added Eldership succession to African and Romuva followers note Before this, pagans pretty much can only use gavelkind-style successions, which splits the realm easily.

A later patch even made it so disabling pacts doesn't even turn off achievements anymore. 2.6, released with The Reaper's Due, reverted calls-to-arms to an improved version of the old voluntary system (you can now betray the alliance again, but with stiff penalties) and added a game settings panel with the option to disable defensive pacts, as well as adding practical reasons to stay in peacetime for longer periods and wait out defensive pacts. Author's Saving Throw: Conclave was controversial at best, though less for what was in the DLC and more for what was in the 2.5 rules patch: namely defensive pacts against expanding empires and mandatory calls-to-arms from allies, and to a lesser extent not being automatically allied with foreign rulers of the same dynasty.This implies that the upcoming decimation of the Aztec Empire in the Age of Discovery was a Roaring Rampage of Revenge. Alternative Character Interpretation: If you completely wipe out the Aztec Invasion in Sunset Invasion, then you will get a message stating that one day the nations of Europe will follow the Aztecs back to the Americas and repay them with interest.
