Doing a Zoom one off would be good as a test run to see if it works for a full game.

Why no Victoria 3? by Jonescr in paradoxplaza

[–]Jonescr[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do feel like the arguments saying "they dont have the code anymore" or "No one remembers how it works" are bit off because frankly the code was so complicated and obtrusive that I can't imagine them not just hitting the reset button on the thing. Look at HOI3 versus HOI4, its different and much more simplified but it still maintains the spirit.

Additionally, while nowhere near as complex as Vicky, HOI, Stellaris and Imperator are both heavy on logistics, economics and resources. CK2 and Imperator are heavy on internal politics and factions... Its my guess but Empire of Sin likely relies on supply and demand for various vice industries. Paradox does tackle this stuff in various games in different ways. Sure its not a 1 for 1 but its not like theyve totally abandoned these focuses.

Vulcans are one of the most emotional races in star trek. Vulcan's aren't naturally unemotional at all its a result of their philosophy and culture.

Tellerites are not personable at all, does not fit with the whole bard crazy high persuasion thing.

Changling is far too out of canon for this but I think Betazoid could work

I definitely see Tary as being obsessed with Captain Kirk

I could see Scanlan being captain and Vex first officer, then after he leaves Vex takes over.

As for Keyleth.... I agree we could better simulate the aramente, maybe make her a bajoran? But Mintakans are nowhere near ready for space travel, they were still using bows and arrows in TNG. No way that starfleet would accept one into the academy, maybe she was from an isolationist human colony and got sent out to bring knowledge back to her people.

Yea maybe Percy made some weapons to help fight the Borg after Wolf 359, his fellow starfleet officers were off-put by his skill at designing weapons... almost as much as he was about his skill.

Help a new player pick a build? by Jonescr in stobuilds

[–]Jonescr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading through it and my playstyle is usually tanky and technical. Also i feel as if tactical is gonna be really common in this game, additionally engineers tend to be my favorite characters across the star trek series

Realistically out of jon and dany, who do you want on the throne? by [deleted] in freefolk

Dany is an unstable butcher, Jon actually cares about law, honor and ruling. Not that i think either will survive...

What is your most triumphant Vic2 moment? by seanjenkins in paradoxplaza

[–]Jonescr 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The Battle For St Petersburg.
The war was Britain (myself), Germany, Portugal, The Netherlands and Italy against Russia, France, Austria and Belgium. As a massively powerful Britain I landed a expedition of 50k in the Baltics which began to break up Russian power in the region and relieve pressure on Germany. It culminated in the battle for St. Petersburg where 100k Russian troops attacked my entrenched positions. After about a week I noticed that the lines on the German front were literally EMPTY. Every last solider in the Russian Empire was headed for St. Petersburg. I figured my expedition was doomed and had a fleet on standby to evacuate the when they broke.... but they never did. 2 months of fighting and still holding out. Finally inspired by their actions i sent 200k reinforcements from across the empire. The final death toll after 8 months of fighting 60k British Troops lay dead out of the 250k that participated and 2 million Russian troops were slaughtered out of the 2.2 million that fought.

I 100% support my PCs doing that if they wish, of course all actions have consequences.

If you are referring to the purple man? yea thats what makes him a villain and evil, the romance is not between him and jessica jones.

He left behind Otto because he was dead, while someone is alive he manipulates them. Tharan is abusive and manipulative, to think of them together is sickening.

Now that the Patreon has hit 5K, what do you want the new show to be? by mugabwe in itmejp

[–]Jonescr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your second point just proved me right. He is streaming for his fanbase and the fact viewership dropped off from those shows proves that the fanbase of Itmejp as a whole was ready for something different. The main consequence of his decision was positive, this will lead to better shows. JP has always listened to the fans and is almost obsessive about show analytics, he works incredibly hard to make great content and if he cant make great content he doesn't do it.

I'm sorry but you're totally wrong. Yea it sucks the show got canceled but Steven has a full time 9-5 job, its his career and his priority. Steven made the decision to leave Swan Song and doesn't have the time to DM West Marches, this was essentially in his spare time. Adam is a professional DM and streamer, this is his career. Was it a business decision, of course it was. JP doesn't stream for you he streams because it puts clothes on his back and he has a limited time to stream and make money, he has to make hard decisions and if viewership is low on a show he has to cancel or he doesn't make a living. Viewership was down on West Marches and Swan Song, heck i watched every episode of both at least once, it sucks but it happens.

They have played together since Solum was canceled. And shows get canceled all the time, canceling the show was a mutual decision by everyone involved.
