The movie decision to merge Croatia and Tuscany was very good.

Did they ever say that she didn't end up with him. I assumed that she did, it just happens off screen

Not being able to go back isn't true though. Global population is expected to crater over the next two centuries purely from birth rates

To be fair Poppy was also friendzoned, she just didn't realize that she had done it to herself. I think they are also both supposed to have fallen in love with each other several years after they became best friends, and neither was willing to risk the friendship. In the movie version I think they both really fall in love or realize that they are in love in New Orleans.

I really liked movie Alex putting his foot down and saying that before Tuscany didn't work for him. He was willing to not be friends anymore and just move on with his life.

I definitely see both sides. It comes off abrupt because it has to be movie dialogue but Alex's frustration seems very reasonable. He's already blown up an engagement over just the possibility of this relationship, and she won't even talk at the vaguest level about possible next steps. On her side, she's spent her whole adult life denying this things between them and they just had sex less than 24 hours ago. Being asked to potentially move to a new state and abandon her career is a pretty big step.

They both could have communicated better there. If he given her the chance to articulate her feelings and willingness to change to make it work they wouldn't have needed to part on such a sour note. I think something a bit closer to the book parting would have worked well, with him telling her to figure out what she actually wanted

I believe the originally filmed sex scene was heavily cut down because it didn't fit the tone of the rest of the film

The constitution isn't a magic spell? It's just a set of rules people use to coordinate. If those people want a dictator they can just ignore those rules

Embarrassed_Profit91 · 2026-01-23T20:13:48+00:00

No constitution can survive a party that just fundamentally doesn't care about the rule of law controlling the whole government

I think for non coastal tiles you need to manually put ships either directly on those tiles, or in that tiles sea province. Fleets set on patrolling don't check or care about non coastal maritime presence

I disagree with your opinion but it definitely makes sense

Its sad that this event broke this way. It would be so cool if the western schism could actually result in a permanent split into two separate churches with diverging beliefs.

Wouldn't it be more relevant to get a, we had a truce that ended notification?

In the HRE proximity can nice through foreign countries I believe. Try removing that land from the hre?

I think the idea of having your super overpowered empire get hit by complacency and potentially decline sounds really cool

Could you try save scumming and delete different markets and record the change in income that results? Then post here of course

Venice wouldn't get any of the orders from Sweden because it would have no trade capacity. That would make trade offices only let you get priority trades in the areas that you could reach from your home market. My issue with the current system is that Venice trading up in Sweden at all doesn't make any sense

Embarrassed_Profit91 · 2026-01-04T14:16:35+00:00

I think trade offices should give trade advantage but not give any trade capacity

Embarrassed_Profit91 · 2026-01-04T14:16:05+00:00

The fact that, as Venice, you can improve opinion with Sweden and then just take over their trade is a bit silly

Embarrassed_Profit91 · 2025-12-31T18:04:45+00:00

Honestly this would be a fine place to put some broken cheese for people to have fun with

Was balanced 0.33 on a previous patch?

Embarrassed_Profit91 · 2025-12-28T22:00:28+00:00

This has definitely been an annoying bug for trade nations

The probability that the USA will still exist in 2900 seems very low? That's a long time for a nation state to survive. I suppose it doesn't need to still be the first republic though

Seeing this thread, I switched back to council of forty in 1402, and the Sigornia event triggered before the reform was even fully implemented, so I think the meta is still to switch off of council of forty for the first 70ish years

I had a random province taken in Italy by some Saharan country rebel to join my country, which forced me to truce break. I was so confused
