It's hilarious when they get a guy who has actual experience in public speaking pretty much right after Johan.

It's a conspiracy to get you fired so you can start your new and improved 100 hours/week Paradox game schedule once unemployed.

It looked like they had mocked up some animations in the PoE engine, so I'm assuming it's another isometric RPG?

I thought the Tyranny thing looked really really stupid but the website makes it seem a lot more interesting. Apparently you play as a "Fatebinder" which I guess is like a judge charged with executing an evil overlord's will in occupied lands after the forces of evil win a big fantasy war. Like the Inquisitor from DA:I meets the Mouth of Sauron. Interesting premise, at least.

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Some sort of kickstarter for a card game or something? And Obsidian is making some Diablo or Arcanum clone with more details to come.

A kickstarter? Why would anyone donate money to a profitable company that is about to do an IPO?

You say this as if it hasn't already happened a bunch of times already.

Well, maybe not the IPO part specifically, but the rest? Sure.

It is exceptionally tedious even for a clicker liker like me. I'm using an autoclicker and I'm at close to 100,000 clicks but essentially nothing has happened. The number of active users makes me think it might be some sort of collective thing but if so that's very unclear.

A kickstarter for $2500 no less.

They liked the kid's game pitch but not enough to rifle through the couch for some of those spare Skylines benjamins. :10bux:

It's pretty funny that HoI4 got delayed for so long it slipped past Stellaris, but also pretty impressive Stellaris hasn't been delayed at all.

Click the thought bubble-question mark button in the bottom-right. If you have a Paradox account and are logged in it gives you some cosmetic forum and Stellaris stuff.

I don't know but like an hour after the project was announced it already has 2,000 out of the requested 2500 dollars so I guess it worked.

So what's this kickstarter thing? I turned the stream off when they started unironically talking about how minecraft modding is going to change the way developing countries think about urban planning and empower poor children to shape their futures because video games.
