Don't expect the city-building sequel to totally match everything that came with the original game

I like Paradox DLC policies. Most of them are actually good and add a lot to the game. It also lets them service the game for a long period of time and push free updates along with DLCs.
I really dislike Paradox DLC policies. Most of them are actually really bad and add nothing to the game. It also lets them procrastinate bigger updates and bugfixes for a long period of time and push free updates along with breaking 50% of the mods.
I like their DLC policies.
The base game gets updated over a period of what, 10 years? Core gameplay mechanics which don't work well or at least don't make the developers happy are tweaked or revamped all the time. I only really play Stellaris, but the changes to the game throughout the years have kept things interesting.
The alternative is... not updating things which they don't like? Perhaps that means mods never break, but then we're shifting the onus of fixing the game to a third party, who can decide to quit whenever they want and let their (closed source) code deprecate. I've seen that kind of thing in Civ and I wasn't a fan.
I guess with a studio that has demonstrated a pattern of long-term support for their games, this is what we get.
Nuh uh
