And upcoming DLC is something that's been requested a lot, but apparently not China DLC, thankfully.

I don't think anybody actually requested a role-playing add on, which would explain the extremely negative reaction to Pdox "wasting time" on WoL instead of adding an alt-history scenario with a horde in the west.

Was it on the paradox forums? Because here I remember a lot of people really liking it. New DLC will finally add skeletons, I hope. *edit* speaking of Tibet is the "reincarnation" trait for Indian characters super rare or something? I never saw it once in my whole campaign to unify the subcontinent.

I figure by the time we get CK3 the map will have expanded to cover the entire world EU4 style and then at some point there will be some kind of horrifying/beautiful Sega 32X DLC that connects CK3 and EU5 for a single continuous millenia-long game without mod converting or whatever. If you want a vision of the future, imagine a human rear end sitting in a chair forever achievement: Play a game from 769 to 1821.

I hope they add all of Asia except China.Hitlers Gay Secret posted:
I´ve said it before but Romuva and "Suemensko" should get more features than Norse because the former lasted almost four centuries longer than the Norse did and the latter was still the dominant religion in Lapland until the 18th century and that sort of Finno-Ugric paganism that "suemensko" seems to be used as a umbrella term for is still a thing among the Mari of Russia although in a syncretic form reminiscant of Voodoo where they technically Christianized but mostly just added Jesus and Mary to the existing pantheon. Of course adding more features to them might be slightly tricky because they weren't really as into writing as the Nordics were so there isn't as much to go on.

All the "Norse" stuff wasn't even written by the Norse, though, which is the crazy part. That stuff was all written a few centuries after that whole region had converted to Christianity, so the authenticity of any of it is fairly dubious. I mean there are some things that we know are true like runestones because like, they're still there. But as far as the mythology goes it's very much second or third or fourth hand information.

It's definitely going to be a revision including the whole rest of Africa. I mean, on top of that Archer nerf, they couldn't actually hate the West African provinces, right?

This guy has the right idea: Paradox Plaza posted:I would love to see a push of the start date all the way back to the fall of the Roman Empire. I could just imagine it, a bookmark around 460 CE or so and the game would instantly start with all the different Germanic tribes pushing straight into the Western Half of Rome and could have the horde mechanics where whatever land they conquer becomes an independent state or maybe they just all have the invasion casus belli (this would result in less varied results). I want this mostly because of the amazing alt history potential here. Maybe the Franks decide to invade Brittania, while the Frisians invade Gaul, and the Saxons decide to take Hispania. Something like this would create an amazing amount of random uniqueness since you'd never have the same land controlled by the same cultures in any two games. Personally the farther from true history I get in my CK2 games the better. Cultures always being in the same areas has always been something that I wish would be resolved in a conventional sense such as this. It would also open the doors for other great possibilities as well, such as the Germanic tribes converting to Islam, Judaism, Zoroastrianism or whatever since maybe they decided to reject the Christian teachings and instead convert later or right away. It would be mighty interesting seeing a Jewish Europe or just any different religion in general. The point is that such a bookmark would create an amazing variety in CK2 games.

I want a Fall of Rome scenario just so the about-to-die Western Roman Empire can be a honeypot and I can laugh with malice as everybody tries to play as the Romans and immediately had their poo poo punched in from several directions simultaneously.

That's basically what Total War: Attila is about. The Western Rome start is ranked "legendary" difficulty. Shimrra Jamaane posted:Feudalism didn't really exist in 476 though. Maybe they'll unlock inland republics as playable! And then everyone else would just be tribal.

Paradox would need to figure out an immersive way for a game started in 476 or whenever to develop key features as time goes on. Islam doesn't even exist yet!

Paradox Historical Strategy Games: Civilization for the serious grognard. Why play only one game that spans all human history when you can play nine different games with different mechanics to get the truly immersive experience?
