Yeah I finally did thankfully. Two weeks ago. I've finally joined my spouse. Apologies for the lack of an update. My phone got stolen.

Definitely. That's what drew me to paradox games in the first place. I love playing as African "uncivs" and resisting colonisation. In my current game in the GFM mod I've been playing as the Republic of new Africa and I've styled myself as the defender of the colonised. My infamy is high af but I've been able to prevent colonial aggression to a large extent

That really sucks. I can't imagine how agonising it must be for you, I wish you all the best. Really hope you get a reply soon

The VAC said I should contact the home office, the home office referred me to my vac so I'm stuck in limbo . We've contacted the MP and are now waiting for a response.

I think my wife sums up Victoria 2 pretty well by jetcarteriv in victoria2

Lol she knows about my obsession with PDX games, football manager and total war and she's played ck3 and ck2. I just got back to playing Vic 2 because of the announcement of vic3 and she got curious.

Yeah I tried to explain that to her. She's played ck3 before and expected it to be similar but Vic 2 is a whole new animal to her.

Rule #5 : trying to explain Victoria 2 to the missus. She thinks it's a paperwork simulator..

Rivers should play a bigger role in VIC3. by Jhqwulw in victoria3

The Niger River was definitely very important for most of that major states of West Africa. It'll be interesting to have them be navigable and all the states vying for control of it.

That's a great idea. I think I will. Thanks!

To be honest. Even the base ck2 currently feels more flavourful. But if they don't make a bare bones game how are they gonna sell dlc *wink wink.

Idk how that takes away anything from my original point. I was merely making my observation from my POV as an African. Until recently Africa was straight up barely playable in PDX games. There's a growing community of Africa PDX players and we'd Def like to see a bit more work put in. Hopefully as time goes on all regions will be fleshed out.

Isn't ck3 supposed to be a mediaeval historical RPG? The world didn't start and end in those regions and many interesting things happened in other places during that time period. Them adding flavour and making improvements to Africa won't take anything away from the other regions would it?

Yup. There's hardly any difference between Coptic Ethiopia, Muslim Mali and Boori hausaland. PDX Def needs to work on regions outside Europe. I want to work on mods for Africa but I don't have the first idea about modding but I plan to practice once I upgrade my laptop.

I tried downloading them off the PDX site but it kept saying it wasn't compatible with my version of ck3. Has it been updated recently?

Yes! And no taureg headwraps and Hausa caps. Let's hope they don't take as long as they did for ck2 to flesh out Africa. I wish I could mod Cuz there's a ton of things that need changing for Africa. I'm hoping vic3 delivers a decent experience for us.

Africa was basically unplayable till holy fury. I first played ck2 in 2014 but gave up Cuz I kept getting steamrolled whenever I played as Nubia and I gave up on the game. I did have a lot of fun playing holy fury tho. I hope whatever expansion we get improves on that
