I think a lot of it works quite well and it has some good ideas, but the game does a terrible job of pushing back once you start snowballing (which is weird, that's like paradox's 'thing'), the UI is glaringly deficient, and they should really just go balls in on characters and their interactions. 'Autonomous personalities within your country' is Pdox's best ever idea but for some reason they insist on limiting it to CK, as if individuals were irrelevant to all other periods of history

Gort posted:Yeah, I'm waiting until the "combine all the different kinds of power into one" thing gets a full release and then I'll try again. Fwiw I think the focus on implementing sim mechanics is adding a lot more to the game than Stellaris's leguin update, which ended up being a bit of a disappointment to me.

Imperator has a lot of good ideas now, and looks to be getting more, but it flopped so hard (in terms of reception) that it's hard to see people flocking back. I also don't think these regional focus tree packs are necessarily the best way to go; they add a lot of interesting detail, but only to small patches of an absolutely enormous map. I think Paradox would be better served scattering them around on the big or historically significant nations, similar to the state of EUIV on release E; so you'd have missions for like rome and carthage, but also the diadochi and parthia and the marathas and arverni, something for everyone and roughly covering all regions and gov types Fuligin fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Mar 9, 2020 |

Rome 2 TW is still bad, just less broken. Also IR's nes simulationy bent is like a million times more interesting than its bare, lifeless release incarnation, I cant imagine why anyone (apart from johan, apparently) could possibly be absorbed by the latter

Lead out in cuffs posted:Yeah mostly. The character mechanics are kinda fun with events, but marriage is pretty broken. Under monarchy you have to arrange marriages for your own family, but if there's even a slight gender imbalance then the AI controlling the other families will automatically snipe any eligible characters the instant they turn 16. You can try for the ruling families of your neighbours, but they also get sniped the second they turn 16. this really needs to be sorted with a 'debutante' button or something

I've played five or six hours of 3 on gamepass and it definitely seems like an enormous jump in UI and graphics and even basic mechanics, but I think i've played CK2 too much to really get into it again. Also they took out the Byz mechanics after finally getting them right, what the heck

Lum_ posted:it actually applies to all online games - Chinese regulators differentiate between games mostly played offline/single player (danji) and online/massively multiplayer (wangluo). The split is mainly to keep esports producers happy (they qualify as danji for ~~reasons~~). The three hour a week ban is for wangluo games which by far are the most popular in the Chinese market. my impression was that there was still basically zero enforcement of these time limits. am i wrong on this?

verbal enema posted:How's Imperator Rome? It's pretty fun now, at least if you're into the period. If you try it i'd recommend the invictus mod, just fleshes out some more tags. It plays closer to eu than ck, if that makes a difference to you.

Jazerus posted:it's the only game in paradox's "mainline" games (i.e. not march of the eagles, sengoku, etc.) that felt like it was created without the input of anyone who actually knows the time period inside and out, it just has a weird vibe that's very pop-history-rome instead of real-history-rome This is a weird take imo. Like rome at release had only one consul which was annoying, but the map's attention to detail and different polities is incredible. The game ended up in a good place
