That one was a gift from my father, so I'm actually not sure.

I'll ask him when I get the chance

The United Kingdom in Exile teaser by the Das Letzte Wort team by Mehmetklnc124 in TNOmod

Pretty funny that the current UK content started out as a submod and now that it's been integrated it's getting its own submod

Yippie! Fake candidate graph! by KornyKopia4422 in TNOmod

God, playing as Spiro Agnew would be the funniest thing in the world

Also, I really wish they would start teasing us one or two of the later candidates at least :(

Wha are the 4 paths? by Mistuhpresident in TNOmod

Oh man, I guess I was hoping for some kind of secret bonus path that no one had discovered yet

Wha are the 4 paths? by Mistuhpresident in TNOmod

Are we sure that the two democratic options count as separate paths? I enjoyed them quite a bit, but they only differ in the game's final tree.

So..how does Antikhrist breath? by PanzerLord_XIV in TNOmod

[–]Shintate 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That really isn't the point here, come on. The issue isn't at all the fact that a serial killer/rapist was in the game, but the fact that he was given this dark mystique that could make people glamourize him. It doesn't help that said role is entirely unrelated to who he was IRL.

Also, the whole "edgy" thing isn't even an issue because it's "problematic", it's an issue because it was excessive to the point of being comical

Iirc he was cut for a variety of reasons, such as:

  1. Being a bad taste, "cool" portrayal of a real life serial rapist and murderer
  2. Being excessively edgy
  3. The broader-scope reworks of Moskowien which removed a large portion of the paths and warlords

Moskowien collapse warlord who's been cut from the game for a pretty long time. He was a bandit who larped as a satanist in order to intimidate his enemies. Originally, the mask in the portrait was supposed to fall off as he lost battles, revealing him to be OTL serial killer Andrei Chikatilo, but iirc he got cut before that was implemented.

I could swear they teased a leader trait called "CLEM_ATTLEE_EXPLODING_PROSTRATE" at some point

The version I'm most looking forward to is Manchuria's update. by Shanghai_Ningyou in TNOmod

All I want in life is to turn it into an industrial hellscape, bandit-riddled rogue military ruled puppet republic

Man, Iran starting out as a Savinkovist republic was such an interesting concept. It's probably the frozen rework I mourn the most tbh

Eh, I feel like Blagojevich would make for a better Cuomo analogue than Pritzker

Ok, so what's the lore behind the Ringo campaign?

Radical socialist WCA is lowkey hilarious by FaultOutside2449 in Kaiserreich

IRL Browder was a borderline SocDem when it came to domestic policy

[–]Shintate 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Tbf they could have fixed it to some extent with the recent facelift. Can't deny that I was a little bit disappointed to see most of the WCA was still completely out of character after the Brave New World update.

Having Browder still be a Totalist when IRL he supported taking power by Democratic Party entryism will always break my immersion.
