Space 4X sim Stellaris is to receive its next major overhaul in May this year, with changes to the pacing, presentation and systems affecting performance.
Honestly, its better multiplayer. If the host owns the DLC, everyone else can play with that content enabled in the session.
The only downside is the endgame slowdown, and if you get a Min-Maxer in your group it will kill all the fun since the AI will rubberband to catch up with them and then declare war on all the other players as a result.
Also, not all the DLC is necessary. You can pick and choose which elements you want to play with. Definitely get them on sale though.
