They can’t help themselves from fucking with the game mechanics.
That was a big reason why I quit. Every other patch they had to 'refine' the game mechanics. And of course, none of my saved games would work with the new updates. Just....enough.
They use the steam beta system to let you roll back to any arbitrary release that you like. They really fucked up 4.0 but thanks to this system people could just keep playing 3.14 which was actually still good.
Right click the game, properties, click 'betas', drop down the beta participation menu and pick the version you want.
All other stellaris bullshit aside, I wish more games offered such a robust way to play prior versions.
