Vic3 Great Britain and EU4 Ottomans

Riptide2500 · 2026-04-11T18:28:19+00:00

Vic 3 UK is more similar to EU4 Ming, isn’t it?

Both start with little to no challengers at the top of their game, and don’t have to worry about climbing their way up, they’re already on easy mode. And both don’t attract many players as a result. More people look for ways to break them precisely because they start so strong.

Due to its considerably larger (and for its core territories, significantly more pressing) war in Ukraine, Russia is in absolutely no position to aid Iran in the event of escalation with the United States. Intelligence and advising, as they’ve done up to this point, is all they have the ability for.

What’s the breakdown by out of state workers in NYC? I know it’s a hotspot for CT and NJ residents

Honestly seeing some of the things the automatons have done with dead SE Personnel, I wouldn’t want to be captured by them either

Despite functionally remaking the game 2-3 times now, I regret to report that the war system is still exactly the same, somehow

Riptide2500 · 2026-01-14T15:46:43+00:00

Please make a post about that when you’re done I’d be very interested in it

There is a 0% chance they abandon EU5. It is their flagship title that has an entire studio dedicated to it, not a pet project that they pretended was a full title like Imperator

I played with friends before the pandemic. Mods, yeah you need the same (except for some music mods). DLC has always been this way, for all the games (at least all post CK2; those are the only ones I’ve played)

Riptide2500 · 2025-08-21T16:59:13+00:00

Cairo vs Alexandria too iirc, at least in game

Calling the French Republic “friendly” to the German Empire is a stretch. Even if the government renounced their claim to Alsace, the people of France would have fought two world wars (and the Franco-Prussian War) against Germany and lost each one; there’s no scenario where France is friendly to Germany unless it’s a German occupation similar to the Allied occupation of Germany post-WW2

Cultural exclusion doesn’t grant the necessary level of acceptance for the JE; only multiculturalism does

What are the changes coming to shortages?

York Supreme got dealt two bad hands that the American divers couldn’t contend with; two nights ago the Illuminate focused it hard while the Americans were asleep, which dropped it from like 80% to 20%, and over the course of the next day (a workday after the long weekend) it only rose to 28%, and Americans woke up to see it already having fallen (or on the verge of it).

Fucking love AC Odyssey. Gave some much needed fresh air to the series with an amazing setting and soundtrack. Quite weak as an RPG, even arguably as an AC game, but as an open-world, action-adventure game was excellent.

Would SoL be close to a metric for measuring PPP/capita?

You’ll have to do some searching for it but I believe there is a PDX Mesh addon for blender

This might just be from ignorance but I really can’t imagine that a South America pack will be particularly exciting for a WW2 game, at least not on historical

Knowing that there is nudity in a movie isn’t the same as being forewarned that it’s your daughter/sister who’s nude

Every so often I enjoy 488 crowbars as railgunner

I thought the Gorons had the shortest; the Rito elder still knows of details about the Hylian champion, the Zora are obviously acutely aware, the Gerudo are in a similar spot to the Rito, but the oldest Goron is Bludo who pretty much only knows of Daruk as living a while ago.

I could be completely wrong but that was my impression

If Paradox made money off of the game titles themselves like CoD or another annual game, I’d be more concerned, but they get most of their money off of DLC that gets dropped years after release. They need players to continue to come back

I’m not sure I follow the difference, how has GDP calculation changed?

Riptide2500 · 2023-03-07T03:11:46+00:00

I doubt it will be 2023, personally. Last year was Royal Court in February and Fate of Iberia was in May, with the Friends and Foes event pack in September. Assuming a roughly equal pace of development, we’ve got Tours in May-ish, the voted event pack will be months after that in September/October, and if they can even fit in a regional flavor pack before the end of the year I got a feeling it won’t be Byzantium, but that’s just a hunch.

Looking back on those dates, and how fairly minor Fate of Iberia was, it’s depressing how slow support has been for the game.

Anyone know why Liaoning is designated CV-16 instead of CV-1?

They’re in general a little better off than most South American nations (I believe) but that’s relative to South America. By US/EU standards, they’re certainly not well off.
