He has similar preferences for what he likes in his Paradox games, so him saying this is moving away from the board game feel and more to a simulated living world is making me a lot more optimistic. He's also saying that the underlying systems are solid and robust, though balance (and UI) in his opinion require tweaking and bug fixing, which is another big plus for me.

dammit, at this rate I'll end up with a preorder... don't wanna   :shutup:

Indeed. Overall I trust his views, although he is prone to shrilling, still.

But, but, but pre-order bonuses!!!! You might get better animated Swedish infantry bayonetting Russians!

I think this is going to be a great game, honestly, and like Queen once sang, I want it now.

Of course, there'll be DLC enough to empty your coffers, but fuck that, I am all in.

The preorder bonus just seems to be the EU4 soundtrack? Which I doubt anyone really needs. :lol:

I just saw that this is going to have language families, languages, dialects and court languages.

Why?

They revealed the "final" map today. 28.000 plus provinces. There will be a lot of over-cooked computers in early November.

It's Paradox's contribution to helping wean Europe off Russian gas for heating this winter.

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.
