Maybe they’ll give it to The Chinese Room who will turn it into a walking simulator with a smidge of awful, repetitive combat mixed in.

The poor state of Stellaris QA is incredible.

It feels like one of those friends you adore, with a constantly relapsing, and worsening, drug habit.

Meanwhile EU5 released with incredible QA for the starting centuries, with dwindling testing done for the later ones. And I can't even blame them, knowing how much slower the game generally is.

Sounds about right :(

Stellaris was like that early in its life, too.

I feel like most accusations of bad QA have their roots upstream of the QA department (or lack thereof)
