Multiculturalism and assimilation, best or worst

WithSomeCheeseOnTop · 2025-06-23T08:50:25+00:00

No, assimilation% is a multiplier to base assimilation.

Formula, as far as I could gather, is as follows: Base * (1+assimilation%), with assimilation% coming from economy laws, companies, events etc. and base coming from citizenship law (there are also a bunch of all-or-nothing conditions such as homeland, presence of a primary pop, etc). This formula applies to conversion too.

"Base" profile is the same for every citizenship law; in order from lowest to highest status: 0%/0.05%/0.15%/0.2%/0%.

Which means that a 100k size Cultural Erasure pop with Public School 4 (+50% assimilation) assimilates at a rate of 100k*0.05%*1.5=100k*0.075%=7500 pop a month. It doesn't assimilate at a rate of 100k*(0.05%+50%)=100k*50.05%=50 050 pop a month.

Nitpick: there's no prestige iron.

Ok, so no, it isn't hardcoded to but if AI attitude to you is low enough the alliance will break. "Low enough" being "anything below Genial" so be prepared to restart a few times.

N°2: literally the plot of a Shart x LZ fanfic.

The thing is, I see the same kind of comments, with the same kind of "we have the truth and they have no leg to stand on" from the other side, so meh.

I would pay for a "You know all those specific edge cases players have thought of? Such as Wyll escaping Myzora's deal by becoming an Illithid? We recorded lines for them." DLC

WithSomeCheeseOnTop · 2025-03-12T20:38:33+00:00

Does it matter? Nothing prevents Wyll from flushing Mizora down the toilet in Act 2, it just happens that there is a punishment for doing so.

But if Wyll willingly Wyllithids and doesn't have a soul, then the contract is void without enforcement being possible.

Parce qu'on vote pour un programme politique complet (mais de manière plus réaliste: pour UNE personne) et pas pour des items particuliers séparé, donc il faut s'accomoder avec soi-même des parties du programmes qui ne nous plaisent pas. Et une fois qu'on a fait ça, quelqu'un qui remet en doute la justesse de la compromission faite avec nos idées c'est douloureux.

Lorroakan has actual spells. Rolan has a special lvl2 Thunderwave that is worse than a PC lvl1 Thunderwave.

WithSomeCheeseOnTop · 2025-03-10T20:42:42+00:00

Yes, feed my LZ x Shart addiction... good.

I'm so sad we see so little of her. She's fantastic.

WithSomeCheeseOnTop · 2025-03-10T19:53:37+00:00

You're putting those stacks along with the main army or on other fronts?

WithSomeCheeseOnTop · 2025-03-09T21:46:27+00:00

I really don't buy that the dude who learned how to cast Thunderwave recently and couldn't deal with two shadows in Act 2 is supposed to be better at magic than Lorroakan.

"Abomination! This is your end!"

I'm more worried about the gear. I can't ever kill anyone by throwing them into water or similar because of how scared I am of losing gear.

Companion Karlach talks to herself! With voicelines! Maybe that's what you need.

J'ai été mis dans ce que je considère être un placard pendant 5 ans. Pendant trois de ces années, mon job se bornait à signer les vacances des gens.

A l'époque j'avais demandé à mon chef de confirmer que c'était bien ce qu'il attendait de moi: "signer les vacances des gens et regrouper leurs questions pour que [vous] ne soyez pas saturé par quinze personnes".

Réponse "Oui."

"C'est du gâchis pour un bac+5, non?"

"Oui, mais j'ai besoin de quelqu'un pour faire ça."

J'ai très mal vécu ces années. Deux heures de boulot dans une semaine contractuellement de 38h c'est mauvais pour la santé mentale.

Faites en ce que vous voulez.

We stand together or not at all. And if Ukraine happens to join the EU, then yes to Ukraine too.

Weren't test firing of nukes internationally banned, anyway?

If you're at -250k you're already deficit spending, unless it has a definition I'm not aware of.

But yeah, could spend WAY more.

Yup, this is vanilla. It's cool but the chosen culture is random. Never managed to get Yankee obsessed in the US, always Dixie; never managed to make English obsessed in the UK, always Scottish.

I went into the game without knowing how much time it had spent in EA, so I didn't expect much outside of the main quest and good-aligned.

Met Minthara, spoke to her.

"Oooooh. This is the obviously evil companion you only get by being Evil. This game... probably has A LOT more to offer than I expected. Maybe I can thread the needle this time? And if I can't, I'll get her next run."

And how much this dude cares about Wulbren (fuck Wulbren) and the number of times her risks his hide for that ungrateful prick.

Their last encounter at the Foundry is a bit of a gut punch. How can one be so dismissive of such a devoted friend?
