I made sure to take steps to show how the system can be broadly applied across the board and would be a solution to a number of different issues with the genre. I'm addressing your repeated desire for a studio to have it's 35k-50k (salary) per month tech employees spend a lot of time modeling your ideal 1836 Japanese start. It is weird to be that focused on something in a 1.0.0. Honestly the counter argument for giving US states more independence makes a lot more sense to me, at least from a gameplay perspective. It'd own to do something with Jazerus posted:you could say the same about literally any place on earth getting special mechanics or a detailed starting scenario.

He’s saying a western based game cares about western scenarios more. Which while I don’t think is the complete story also isn’t wrong

Hrm, somehow this doesn't seem like an accurate representation of my arguments and position. You get kinda close though because I did say that US states should be represented with a similar system, but it doesn't make sense to me that you'd be up for a system to only apply to some nations and not others; that's more work than what I suggested. CharlestheHammer posted:He’s saying a western based game cares about western scenarios more. Which while I don’t think is the complete story also isn’t wrong It is contradictory and undercuts their point though; because weebs are a huge market who would actually line up for good Japan content.

Randarkman posted:This is a pretty small thing all things considered, but I find it really weird if they've actually put down Vlasov as (I assume) a potential leader of a Soviet Union turned fascist. The thing is that Vlasov's defection to Nazi Germany was very much a result of the specific circmstances of his defeat and capture in 1942. While it seems he harbored anti-bolshevik sentiments, he decidedly had not been outspoken and political before the war and was a careerist (supposedly a pretty good division commander) more than anything else. Yeah, it's extremely bizarre and it honestly just left me...annoyed? There's still plenty of white army lunatics in 1936 that would gladly collaborate voluntarily with Hitler if the circumstances were right. Instead, vlaslov because someone looked up "general of fascist Russians" or something on Google and called it a day. In the meantime, paradox gave so much detail to Portugal that, if you liberate Angola and Mozambique, you get accurate historical figures of Angolan and Mozambican society as leaders. It's really weird how they invested their focus in the game.

Part of it is also shifting focus. I don't think Paradox set out to make Carlists of Iron 4; it just turned out that the weird ideology-switching focus paths in the second big DLC were a hit, especially the monarchy ones.

Speaking of Sunset Invasion, CK2 did have a DLC that introduced explicit supernatural content, and a game rule to turn that off if you so desired. I don't see why there can't be a steampunk equivalent for Vicky 3 somewhere down the line.

I really really hope this game lets me grind the confederacy into paste and then introducing an extremely radical union with socialist characteristics. Nip all this poo poo in the bud in the 1800s.

Unironically, because time spent developing dumb goggles-and-gears scenarios could be better spent modeling the unique real world economic and political circumstances of 19th century Persia.

If Victoria 3 is successful enough I think they'll have no problem expanding the team to crank out expansion content. We can have both Steampowered spider tanks AND historically accurate Persia!

Vasukhani posted:I hope that the confed actually puts up a meaningful fight though. In Vicky II it was really anti-climatic. Especially since it was incredibly easy to game by simply not enlisting any Dixie pops before the start of the war. Or better yet, use all the Dixie pops to fight in wars against Mexico/whoever else and then delete them all before the nation splits.

Dixie pops should probably be the only ones able to support military units until the civil war breaks out and then have the amount of recruitable yankee pops grow as the war continues

I'm baffled that people do the gamey yankee soldier play in a game like Vicky. It's not like you're going for an EU cheevo. Similarly I don't understand people who powergame in CK.

Similarly I don't understand people who powergame in CK. It wrecks the Southern state's infrastructure no matter what, but when you game it like that less people in your country die. More pops are better in V2, and losing a massive amount of population when it can be easily avoided just rubs me the wrong way. And again, this isn't an abstract manpower pool, once your citizens die they stay dead.
