Discords function better with as few people in them as possible, which is why it's actively desirable for discords to be fairly specific.

Yeah, discord is loving great and I love it but for all the good it has it can't be a replacement for a huge forum like SA.

If you want a forum and not a discord there is breadnroses.net Right now they are approving goons so you don't have to pay the $10 sign up fee. And there is already a paradox thread in the games forum!

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:Yeah but the UI is terrible. Bright loving red for the welcome post? Seriously? I think I would rather go on the PDX forums to talk about Paradox games. set it to dark minimalist in the forum display change thing. Which I forgot used to be a common forums feature. Also never go to the Paradox forums, you will regret it. Reddit is ok if you must.

Right now BnR is free even without an invite, just make an account and leave it alone when you hit the paywall screen. Someone will get around to manually approving you eventually, there's just a lot of refugees to work through. If you want in ASAP or want to give them money then just pay the  but it's not required rn.

I think there are only 3 people approving accounts.

I'm sure nobody here needs a link to another off site but in case you want to look for people to play paradox games with who aren't Nazis here is a decent if young discord server: https://discord.gg/xy2wEd edit: they also like chess and checkers!

He's actually a lib-dem british sikh. it's mostly active GMT time. it is almost all teens though and i only posted this link because the server owner asked me to leach from the dying gay forum. it definitely isn't a replacement for Something Awful community discords. edit: i just checked on what was up with the banner and it was apparently a troll on the admin.

fuf posted:If they did this then Paradox would have to move away from a map striated by static provinces to a map based on smooth space. Which would be really cool but hard for them to do because provinces are such an ingrained part of all their games. Eh, the provinces in the colonisable parts of the map in EU are all arbitrary (or linked to later historical developments if using the real-world map). There's no reason they couldn't just set up a node-based map with "regions" instead of "provinces", especially since there are obvious subdivisions around existing city-states, natural resources, etc.

I'm sure the kid means well, but I'm just not gonna join a discord run by a literal child. I'll take my chances with the mapgoons. They don't seem to be doing weird poo poo to invite drama for no reason.

Wait is the forum actually dying? I can't be bothered to follow the drama. Edit: If it actually is then I suggest Quarter to Three (https://forum.quartertothree.com/) or an offshoot of that forum called Broken Forum (https://brokenforum.com/index.php). Last one was set up by Lum that created this thread. They have a similar format where the games are discussed in seperate megathreads. Though both of those forums are less active.

A lot of people decided they wanted Lowtax gone after his lastest bout of domestic violence, and there was a risk he would either get pissy about it and delete the forums, or that he would refuse to leave and that a lot of the community would leave instead. The mods and admins seem to have (fingers crossed) arranged to take over the site and remove Lowtax though so for now, things seem to be ok.

Another new studio, this one a mobile acquisition. The Stellaris mobile game was being done by a third party right? Maybe this will help bring that or future efforts in-house. https://twitter.com/PdxInteractive/status/1278690319597477888

Anyway Mapgoons discord is good and you should join it. Unless you're the 11th person to click that I guess. I didn't want to leave a permanent link laying around since I'm not, like, a mod there. Nazis aren't welcome though.

I'm not really buying it. That's not to say I don't think Paradox might have been assholes about something but considering how he acted when the EU4 Castle LAN thing went down, I reckon there's way more behind this than that one video.
