Yes, it should arrive few hours before the release.

I'm not sure, but a dev said that all that stuff will be free eventually.

The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes, look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.

They can only be unlocked until September 2nd apparently, but like Knuc said, any of them that you don't unlock will be available for free at some unspecified later date.

Thanks. I'm not exactly sure what is the point of temporarily gating cosmetics in a primarily single player game, but I might try to knock out the last few points I need for Joan of Arc tonight.

Got a link to this? I really don't think I'll be able to go back to CK2 once I get bitten by the bug of the new game.

Somehow missed that there was a thing like that to begin with. Welp.

I give it about a week, maybe two for the tiddy/anime mods. Longer for the more involved things, like the ones on lovers lab.

I forgot this was coming out and haven't been following the development at all. Does it look promising? Paradox has not exactly been on a hot streak recently.

In all of the streams and preview media, anyone seen how many female rulers are in place at game start times? I think there was one I saw but I don't recall any others.

Historically there aren't going to be many, and for the ones that are there you will probably have to deal with the succession laws for a few generations. It's likely you will be forced to have male heirs for at least a while before you can change them. I hope they get the ruler customizer in soon, along with an option for more lenient succession laws.

There's a game rule about gender equality, so you can start the game will fully equal succession

Ah, ok. CK2 didn't have that for like 5 years after launch.

Huh, the xbox app now lists CK3 as 'installable' but only installs ~10MB and sets it up as an app on the system.

Oddly enough it only lists the approx size as 5GB, which seems smaller than what's been mentioned in the thread so far, so I wonder if that's wrong.
