The Apt books are good (I'm on book 5) but his sci-fi is next level. The Final Architecture books are some of the best I've read, and the Children of Time books aren't far behind.
I don't think it's actually even that. It's this peculiarly American thing that says "Freedom means doing anything I want." For starters not pay taxes. They don't come to that from watching analysis on Fox, they come to it by never growing out of hating their parents telling them it's bed time.
I remember reading www.amazon.co.uk/Libertarian-... a while back. I hadn't appreciated just how dumb (but also passionate) libertarians are about these things. Some of this stuff is just libertarian wet dreams, which unfortunately for the rest of us, don't work. But you can't tell them that.

To be fair, he has to work with whoever wins the US election, even if it's the Orange Man-Baby. He can't alienate Trump right now. Meeting him is cheap.

I've got kids and a non-gamer wife, I can't sink 1,500 hours into anything these days, sadly. 😂 Entirely in agreement on value, I tend to think of price per hour. I just can't be at the same point on the scale you are!
Yeah, I'd have considered both the Viking and Iberian packs except the two games I took furthest already were the Vikings and Castile. I'll bear the 'full' DLC you mention in mind when I want to give it another spin. Thanks. :-)
Wait, the "chapters" thing? They don't really solve the problem. I enjoyed the base game, but is it worth it to spend multiples of what I spent on the base game just to add a few new mechanics? And still not have most of them? As against spending the same money on a (several!) new game(s)?
Didn't know that, I'll take a look. Thanks. :-)
The problem with Paradox DLC is that while I might be willing to buy one or two pieces of DLC to get the definitive version, Paradox releases so many that I can't get everything without mortgaging my children. So I generally get none because I'll always be missing something important anyway.
