Don't pre-order games, please don't spend more money than you spent on the game to pre-order loving DLC.

CK2 - 1.3M

Still a lot of room for growth Steam Sales coming up for both HOI4 and Stellaris, so shareholders will be happy for a while.

They both came out middle of this year, they haven't gone on the big sales that give you those numbers.

... leaving the player free to take absolutely everything that isn't close to an AI country.

The AI can and should take stuff I want, what I don't like is them taking stuff that they shouldn't want. In this game China took all of Anatolia while Greece took Istanbul and puppeted Japan. It's backwards.

Whenever I play Eu4 as a colonial nation I always select "let's be friends" for my colonial policy.

Also great work whoever did the Eu4 -> Vicky 2 mod it works exceptionally well except I loaded up my save and remembered I couldn't remember how to play Vicky 2.

I pick that unless I'm playing as a native in which case I need the +10 or whatever colonists and choose the exterminate all natives policy.

Ah the lost art of using the word literally. Let's see a random example:
They were so bloodthirsty that I had to wave a white flag for them to end the war [in a multiplayer LAN game].
vs
They were so bloodthirsty that I had to literally wave a white flag for them to end the war.

The first statement you could take with multiple meanings, he could've referred to jumping up and down while waving his arms and yelling stop, or telling everyone that they concede. But in the second one there is no other way to interpret the statement, the writer had to, quite literally, wave a white flag for the jerks to stop vaporizing all his manpower.

Now let's look at an example of misusing the word:
you literally have to buy a 20 euro DLC to join an alliance if you are a minor power in HoI4

Why was the word literally used here? Nevermind the accuracy of the statement because who cares, was there anything wrong with just saying 'you have to buy a blah blah to bleh bleh bleh'? What was that man trying to say? Was he showing off his low level of education by being unable to use the correct words to show emphasis? Or did he for the sake of comedy harm his own argument by making it sound ridiculous? :thunk:

It's weird looking back that Paradox got into publishing big mods for their old games as standalone products. And then the first two (only two that made it to market? Darkest Hour and Arsenal of Democracy?) were basically trying to do the same thing.

The first fan-game was For the Glory but nobody remembers it since nobody was going to go back to play EU2.
