God, let that joke drop. It was funny the first few times. The comedy was never really in the text..it was in watching Hitler explode in rage over silly things like his Xbox being cancelled. :P

This one didn't even coerce a smile from me.
Winner of THE grumbler point.

Seems like the paradox ceo doesn't believe this game will make a profit.

Kind of good publicity stunt, especially since either the game will suck as a deep 19th century simulation, or masses won't buy it.

I know that Johan posted a year or so ago that Vicy had the lowest sales of any Paradox game.

Seems like 'Plz don't pirate, help your hero Johan!' stuff.

This game will sink or swim based on its treatment of dreadnoughts.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

I'm not suprised--the time period isn't especially appealing for the EU engine. Plus the game design was overambitious with the pops and economic model. With any paradox release I want to wait until multiple patches and possible expansion packs have been released, but I'm tempted to say it is wise to wait for at least the second game in the series as well.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

EU is the gold standard for Paradox--I'll give you EU1. CK and Victoria left a lot more to be desired. Never played HOI.
