Probably due to this, the ethics restrictions on robotics and psionics were removed in the 1.8 patch, replaced with stronger Materialist or Spiritualist factions, respectively. It's also rather questionable why the spiritualists are all fine with it, no matter the actual precepts of their religion. The fact that they can't do just that and are sealed off from anything involving the Shroud is a point of contention. Many sympathetic to the Materialists argue that they would just treat those like any other natural phenomenon: they'd study it, use that knowledge to improve or replace their theories of how the universe works, and look for applications.
Strictly limiting psionics to spiritualists, as a counterbalance to materialists' mastery of robotics and boosts in science. A more recent DLC, Lithoids, added rock-based lifeforms, but unlike Plantoids also came with some unique mechanics and was much better received, leading Paradox to state that chances are likely they'll go back and add some unique mechanics for all the other families as well. Many users in the first and fourth groups received warnings from forum moderators for their lack of civility. The fourth group defended the DLC as vehemently as the first attacked it. #HOW TO PLAY STELLARIS PRE 2.0 PATCH#
The third said it was cool, but a bit too expensive for their tastes, and they'd either wait for the new patch to bring them back in or a sale.
The second group had no problem with the price, loved the content, and simply posted as such. One was vocally angry with the $7.99 price tag, the feeling that several plantoids were reskins of existing portraits, and the studio manager responding to the criticisms by saying the DLC was cheap and should have been $19.99. Why is it a base breaker? It divided the forums into four groups.
The Plantoids DLC, which added a new family (in the taxonomical sense) of races with 15 portraits, a new ship set, a city, and a namelist. There is a group who despise the fact that vassals aren't just a slave nation that do everything you tell them to do without asking for anything in return, with the response being "if you just wanted to conquer them then just conquer them in the first place". A similar break came with the "Overlord" DLC, in regards to Vassals. #HOW TO PLAY STELLARIS PRE 2.0 UPDATE#
The 1.5 "Banks" update renamed these ethics "authoritarianism" and "egalitarianism", respectively, which is less controversial, though arguments on the accuracy of the names still flare up from time to time. The question tore apart many a forum and even been given tongue-in-cheek reference in-game ◊.
In early versions, a pair of opposing ethos were "collectivism" and "individualism". The Aquatic Species Pack's release trailer came with a spacefaring version of the "Fish in the Sea" shanty, sung by a deep robotic-sounding voice, a perfect fit for the new seaborne species. " Nemesis: Main Theme ", one of the most bombastic themes in the game, is the perfect theme for the expansion's premise, that of a galaxy coming together to defeat an existential crisis, beginning with an appropriately darker, more militarized rearrangement of the "Creation and Beyond" main leitmotif before segueing into a sinister melody representing the crisis and slowly brightening up to a suitably epic, heroic finale. " Then Comes Light " is a track that perfectly captures the ominousness and dread that comes with being the unfortunate victim of a Colossus, whether it's just an Earth-Shattering Kaboom of a planet cracker, the forcible conversion of a god ray, the total sterilization of a planet from a neutron purge, or - in the absolute best-case scenario - the encasing of a planet in an Ur-Quan-style slave shield courtesy of the global pacifier, backed up by one of the most ominous Ethereal Choirs in the game. 
A crisis is looming on the horizon, but a Guardian or a strong Federation awakened, saying "We got this.
" Assembling the Fleet " has a subtle start, but instead of building up into a climactic force, it telegraphs a distant hope. It builds up to a crescendo and then remains thoroughly epic throughout till the end. " Hostile Fleet Detected " was shown off during the Commonwealth of Man's revenge for its UNE brothers and sisters. " Deep Space Travels " starts out quiet, but then bursts into an epic theme with a mix of synths and a pipe organ. 
Who would have thought the track for an Ascended Meme would be so beautiful? Truly befitting of a Bold Explorer. "In Memory of Mercedes Romero" A mournful piece sprinkled with a bit of hope.The song was released as a single for streaming a month later. "NOT ALONE", the theme music of 4th anniversary trailer of the game, a haunting ballad about leaving behind a one-planet existence and exploring the wide galaxy (though lyrics-wise it could just as well have been a love song).
