Yeah. Particularly for a sequel where you have a direct comparison to a prior version, it needs to be polished.

For a new title, this still applies if it is part of a family of games (see Imperator).

Stellaris was broken in many ways on launch but had so much promise that we were willing to go through that journey with Paradox to see what would become.

CK3 was actually playable out of the gate.
