I have actually watched a stream of this mod yesterday and it stole a lot of assets, I'm not certain if the music was stolen or did the streamer troll us, but graphically I've seen guns from a lot of games and other mods, like the Double Barrel and Magnum Revolver from KF2. Every weapon has iron sights, even those from HL2, like the Combine Rifle. There is a SHITTON of enemies everywhere, it's stupidly hard and overstretched to the max. It's really bad. It also crashes constantly, graph node is still out of date and you can get stuck very easily. The release version was only 25gb tho, cause it got shipped without cutscenes, which bump up the total to 60gb. Kikas fucked around with this message at 17:45 on Feb 24, 2018 |

The game is also reportedly drawing the entire asset pools of several of the games it's stealing from/modding. Like, the entirety of L4D2's assets are in there, in, I don't know the format at all, I think my source said they were vpks. l4d, every source half life, counterstrike... . by all accounts this is the product of a diseased mind.

Not the Messiah posted:...I did some quick googling and couldn't find anything like what they describe, especially not "hundreds of fortified, self sufficient cities" I'm terrible about history myself, but looking at the wiki article on the Garamantes suggests that they are wildly inflating the city and population counts of the kingdom, possibly to make them a more competitive regional power (ie, they're a pet favorite kingdom of the author). It is sometimes a weakness of Crusader Kings that it can't always model all the wonderfully weird interstitial kingdoms and short-lived regional mega-powers of history, but this does seem an especially funny reaction to that problem. There is also the possibility that the fact that it is a North African kingdom may play some role. There is, apparently, an unfortunate tendency among a tiny slice of the archaeological fringe that over-inflates the importance of North African kingdoms in history as a well-meaning but wildly misguided reaction to the fact that most fringe archaeology quacks are constantly trying to suggest that somehow vikings created everything of note in the world and that no culture developed writing or agriculture without being 'tamed' by white northern europeans. Given that it looks like there's not a whole hell of a lot of well-documented excavation sites, and that Africa in general is woefully underrepresented in historical study, it's possible some fringe group latched onto the Garamantes and the author got their information from there? At any rate, the broad strokes of who the Garamantes were and how they were organized SEEMS to be there, they did have fairly independent walled communities that were very prosperous due in part to their ability to locate underground water sources. Disclaimer: this is all just me browsing over pages in documents pulled up on google, I generally can't be trusted to know jack about poo poo, myself.

IIRC when the Romans conquered North Africa it was still one of the biggest agricultural centers in the world, but was experiencing the onset of extreme desertification that has continued to this day. At one point, however, the region was filled with lakes and ideal for agriculture, and likely housed a pretty sizable population.

It is sometimes a weakness of Crusader Kings that it can't always model all the wonderfully weird interstitial kingdoms and short-lived regional mega-powers of history, but this does seem an especially funny reaction to that problem. There's a decent amount of historical information available about Africa, it's just not widely available in English. The other issue with collecting archeological evidence in North Africa versus somewhere like Scandinavia is entirely due to climate conditions and local architecture. It's a lot harder to find records of wooden structures in a region that has turned into a desert than it is to find them in somewhere frozen. A similar problem exists in the Americas, where evidence suggests that cities housing millions once existed, but little trace of them remains. e: Actually figuring out things like population from historical records is also pretty tricky and almost completely unreliable. The conquests of the Mongols is a good example of this - the official count for people killed in their wars is something like 3-40,000,000. Historical sources used for this casualty count are extremely unreliable, however, and sometimes describe far more people having been killed in cities than what archeological evidence suggests could have ever hoped to live in such a place. It also coincides with hundreds of millions of people dying from the Black Death and other diseases, which likely had their spread hastened by the conquests. Accurately distinguishing between deaths caused by warfare and deaths caused by disease isn't really possible when examining a series of wars that spanned around a hundred years. With that in mind, getting accurate population projections of North African and Saharan populations around 500 AD doesn't seem like anything realistically achievable for the average CK2 modder. The region began experiencing the onset of extreme desertification about 2000 BCE and it has continued to this day - so even at the time the Romans wrote about its nations they were already likely in decline. The closest example of Saharan/West African communities to what the mod author describes may be the Soninke, who settled parts of the Sahara in modern Mauritania prior to 700 CE. They did build cities out of stone, fortified them with walls, and had hundreds of communities spread throughout a region that is largely now desert. For the sake of making a mod for CK2 I don't really see much of an issue with portraying neighboring regions similarly, although adding dozens of provinces to represent that seems kind of odd. turn off the TV fucked around with this message at 22:33 on Feb 25, 2018 |

I forgot about the desertification thing, and that's some very helpful contextual information, thank you. And, yeah. The provinces thing is what makes me think that it's just a personal favorite of theirs, otherwise it doesn't make sense to give them what should amount to a long-term mechanical advantage over everyone else. I guess it actually wouldn't even be THAT weird if it's supposed to be some kind of alternate timeline where the desertification process stopped early or reversed somehow, maybe? If the information I skimmed was accurate, it suggested that even in 500 AD the region was a respected political power. Reversing desertification would be far from the most unscientific or unlikely scenario even compared to the base game, much less the shenanigans in the DLC.

Shady Amish Terror posted:I forgot about the desertification thing, and that's some very helpful contextual information, thank you. It's still strange to give them that many provinces in a historical title with the rationale being that they had a combined population of 80,000 in eight cities spread out over an area of 180,000 miles, because even if you interpret that as meaning that they had eight cities with 80,000 inhabitants each, that's 640,000 and still only a little larger than what Constantinople's population alone was projected to have been at the time, ignoring the fact that the population of Anatolia at the time is projected to have been about 7,000,000. Unless they've added a couple hundred new provinces around the rest of the Mediterranean their own logic for the addition doesn't make much sense.
