Hey so I bought Stellaris on Steam because it was on sale and I want to play multiplayer. I want to get the DLCs but I don't want to spend over $200 on it.

If I use CreamAPI to unlock all the DLCs, could I play multiplayer with it? Would I have my DLCs in multiplayer?

Thanks in advance!

Steam is about the only platform I wouldn't mess with. I've spent way too much money on my library for Steam to ban my account.

I think they only do overwatch and VAC bans at first, no?

Using Koalageddon or CreamAPI should work fine as long as you don't have to download extra content manually. I've used it for years in multiplayer games and never had any issues.

Yeah, I was thinking of using CreamAPI. And I wouldn't get my steam account banned for this, would I?

[–] retro@infosec.pub 1 points 2 years ago

In theory your account could be banned. I've used it on several accounts for going on 7 years and never been banned.

i did use dlc unlockers to play a multiplayer game, and nothing ever happened, and i uninstalled after i get bored with it. But it might not work on Stellaris.

I read on the csRin forums that CreamAPI works with Stellaris, that's why I'm thinking of using it.

I think so, but don't quote me on that.
