The weird thing about the Ghana video is that conquest is supposed to reduce fervor so I would have expected it to fall instead of staying pegged at 100. Maybe all that human sacrifice counteracted that.

Maybe all that human sacrifice counteracted that. My understanding is that it's not conquest that reduces fervor, it's holy wars, and the player deliberately avoided holy wars to save piety. They used county conquests to expand, I believe.

Are they all just playing at a very quick speed without ever pausing when in the character interfaces / responding to events, or are they just cut a lot to keep time down ? Yeah they’re definitely heavily edited

Has Rimmy's video on spreading the faith of Tomboyism been posted yet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-q6NkCOV9bg Twenty minutes well spent.

It's pretty funny he got the Knights Templar because he technically created the first Christian holy order. And that his vassals conquered Jerusalem without his help, though the Templars probably did a lot of the heavy lifting there.

I suspect Paradox told them the format they have to produce, since at least several of those usually do LPs without any editing aside from cutting into episodes.

One of the streamers said that Paradox had asked them to ham it up/roleplay a bit, so I guess a lot of them settled on "costumes" as a way to do that? Honestly I don't mind but I'm sure the people jonesing for hours upon hours of uncut gameplay aren't going to be happy until Monday when the streaming embargo drops. (or today's dev stream I guess?)

I'm really looking for casual chill potential of CK3. Usually I'm all for deep and complex strategy games or RPGs. But last month was tough one (I got twins, my country Belarus got a revolution with dead people on my street) and now I just want to chill the gently caress up. So my library of cool intellectual games doesn't really work for me now. I'm walking around in Assassin's Creed Odyssey and get really tired of trying to have fun from anything more complex. So fellow lovers of needlessly complex games, do you have any casual recommendations of any genre to pass the time while we're waiting for the release of CK3?

ilitarist posted:I'm really looking for casual chill potential of CK3. Oof, twins. This is probably a terrible recommendation but when my last kid was born I played Kenshi for about a month straight, it can be janky as gently caress and ruthlessly difficult but the difficulty drops immensely if you save scum because it makes it easy to steal from the shops at night. Once you get going it's fun and chill to build an outpost somewhere and then go exploring with your fast/sneaky characters. And of course it's easy to pause and step away to change diapers etc. Super fun game but maybe too crazy for you right now, although I will say the combat doesn't require a lot of input from the player, it's real-time with pause and mostly automatic. edit: If you do try it out, you should use a mod that increases XP gain, unless you don't mind getting your rear end kicked over and over again (which is normal in this game and not always a bad thing since it makes you come out stronger). bees everywhere fucked around with this message at 22:11 on Aug 26, 2020 |

Gort posted:Why did anyone preorder this Not preordering but I will get it on Steam. Both times I've subbed to gamepass (so it's no longer 1$ for me), the games have deleted my saves and hidden my cursor (Frostpunk), changed the RT of my controller to "swap between fullscreen and windowed mode", made the B button randomly not work (Ori and the Blind Forest), crashed continuously (Bloodstained) and probably a couple of other things I'm forgetting. But yeah, if it works it's a great deal.

Gort posted:Microsoft Game Pass, Microsoft has required me to Have two copies of the game on my drive at any point. One game in particular kept breaking every month or so, requiring me to download it again if I wanted to play. If Game Pass works for you, that's fine, but I'm not exactly enthusiastic to download CKIII six hundred times.

ilitarist posted:Three Moves Ahead podcast talked about the music a lot. It's very different from previous Paradox music where you just had a movie-style score playing in the background. Here the music is more ambient and subtle but deeply connected to what you see on the screen. Special event music is what you hear a lot, I understand. I went and found this and yeah, everything you and they said sounds great to me.

It's not uncommon for devs/publishers/pr agencies to demand that a video only be of a certain length, or only authorising a single video, so they edited a lot in order to tell a better story rather than focus on the game itself.

One limitation these videos all seem to have is no inheritance - it’s all the scope of a single character.
