The new Stellaris DLC + patch are fantastic. War has been overhauled and is now based around claims and war exhaustion so you can actually wage limited wars for a few systems instead of every war being a 20 year war of annihilation. FTL is now hyperdrive only so there's an actual sense of galactic terrain instead of warp and wormhole empires ignoring everything, static defenses are now actually useful, especially once you unlock FTL inhibitors. Fleets now have size caps that expand with tech so the optimal strategy is not doomstacks, and ships now have a chance of escaping battle when damaged enough so it's not a guaranteed stackwipe when you lose.

 

Oh and you can blow up planets now.

Some tweaks are required in that war exhaustion currently ticks too fast, so large scale wars are basically a rush to conquer the territory you want before war exhaustion ends the war even if you have an overwhelming military advantage, but it would be very easy to mod it to slow it down and there's enough complaints about it that I'd expect Paradox to patch it quickly.
