I loved CK3 when it came out, but tons of time later they still haven’t fixed many common bugs which I experience nearly every single playthrough.

I was patiently looking at Warhammer 3, but I see devs are anti player base and people mention a large quantity of bugs as well.

Is there any strategy game with relatively low amount of bugs? I was thinking of waiting for a sale on RimWorld, but maybe you guys may be able to help me out avoid it, if it’s buggy, or recommend something else.

    I’ve put a couple hundred hours into RimWorld (base game without expansions) and haven’t run into any bugs. The only bugs I’ve seen relate to the multiplayer mod.

      I second rimworld in general but I‘d say its a management sym rather than strategy. Real strategy games (and the best ones I know of) are starcraft 1 and c&c red alert. They’re as old as time but don’t have bugs afaik since games were made different back then.

        Agreed, I would call CK3 or Rimworld “simulation” games not “strategy” games. When I think strategy I think turn based strategy like XCom, FF tactics, or Civ games. SC2 and C&C would be Real-Time Strategy, but from OP’s examples it didn’t sound like that’s what they’re looking for. Maybe they’d like Northgard though.

    I was gonna recommend Dwarf Fortress until I remembered that it is Dwarf Fortress. RimWorld is relatively bug free from what I remember though.

    I have two open-source games to suggest. These not being in it for the profit means they can spend an eternity fixing bugs. Downside is that they’re not the most modern games in the world.

    Anyways:

    • 0 A.D. – Sort of AoE2 meets Empire Earth. Mind that the AI is brutal in this one.
    • Battle for Wesnoth – Turn-based, tile-based, with different terrain and time of day giving different races advantages. So, relatively dynamic gameplay despite being turn-based.
