Comedy option: At pdxcon they announce that Vicky 3 will come out the day after. Pissing off every whale present because it'll be days before they get home.

The announcement reveals that the release date was 7 days before but no one noticed.

I would find it very hype if the release date was the day after PDX Con, but unlikely.

Vicky 3s release date isn't announced, it just shows up in everyone's hard drive like an occult tome

all the mechanics in the dev diaries were made up and all of them are obfuscated in game, have fun

1) Street you grew up on
2) Third grade teacher’s name
3) favorite animal

This cultural map looks good, though I hope that this represents the majority culture for pops in each province rather than the only culture.

IIRC it's what those respective cultures see as their homeland, the actual culture map is different.

Nah, pretty sure that's a map of the majority culture in each province. I don't think you could have a "homeland" map considering there would be a ton of overlap between cultures that share "homelands".

From dev responses:

lachek posted:

Clarification on the cultural mapmode: this map displays the dominant culture among those who consider that state their Homeland, and does not represent cultural control, international understanding, "natural borders", or anything like that. States can be considered Homelands by multiple cultures simultaneously and this map will shift over time as the game progresses.

lachek posted:

Clarification to the clarification on the cultural mapmode: it's a Homelands mapmode, which is in this context more relevant gameplay information than "which culture has a plurality here". In the cases where a state is a Homeland for multiple cultures we break ties by population and display the minority cultures in the tooltip.

yeah I can understand not wanting to give a culture an obsession over a capital-intensive good like tanks or planes or smth, since it'd either break systems or be some sort of free pass for 99% of your pops. Stuff like small arms deffo should be possible tho. Actually, I could see class-based obsessions being an easy DLC/expansion fodder, so you could have your lower classes obsessed with opium while the upper class is busy buying as many planes as possible

No, which is why Americans cannot be obsessed with guns.
