Yes, Steam... EUIV and CKII DO have the 'simulation' keyword.

But I'm not sure that word means what you think it means.








EDIT: This is because I bought the Way of Life DLC, isn't it?

I dunno about you guys, but I play mapgames because of the atrocities I get to commit, not in spite of them.

It made it a lot easier to distinguish them, since they didn't have, say, historical context that you could use to do so. SMAC had to be over-the-top to combat the featurelessness that happens to fantasy settings.

it's kind of sad how many Jagged Alliance "sucessors" have showed up in the JA thread and how creatively every single one of them fails to do even the basics of what made JA2 a game that is still played today.

Welp. Guess I'll be crying myself to sleep tonight, thanks.

Thank Franco for that.

Yes, but President Reagan did wisely enact the "Gorbachev, tear down this wall!" Act. That decision is pretty OP, seeing that it tag-switches the USSR to Russia and force releases all provinces with non-accepted cultures. No the fact that oil prices plummeted at the time had nothing at all to do with it it was all 100% that one speech.

There are otherwise very smart people who actually believe this to be true.

I hope there's an event where you can uplift a race of super soldiers to fight a war and have them rebel on you after the war is over because they're bored.

As for the Liir.. answering that is spoilers. Even though probably no-one cares.

You've never been to a city council meeting have you? The worst paradox forums poster enraged about some minor map inaccuracy or supply abstraction is nothing compared to the sort of people who actually attend and speak up at public hearings. You've never heard people on the verge of rage crying over newly relaxed off-street parking regulations potentially leading to a stranger parking on their sacred clay. You've never heard people passionately arguing against a project because it's offensive to the city's history which they've invented from whole cloth.

I've never seen a unit designer in a 4x work out in an interesting way.

Edit: "Swamp Fox," aside from being a dumb name that I am sure is actually historically accurate,

Ah cool throwing in your lot with Larry. Yeah videogames that change are real scary, I wish these developers would stop developing their game. Reverting to a previous patchlevel? Total bullshit.

If you have been paying attention to how CK2 and EUIV expansions have been at launch, you should be worrying if they're back to their old tricks.

I would play that game. Sometimes magical thinking makes better gameplay systems.

Isn't Trin Tragula of "This day in WWI" fame also on the EU4 team? I thought I saw his name pop up in one of the latest dev diaries.
If so, I like to think that Vicky III will have really good flavour text.

We are way past topics I had planned from the start now! Into unknown territory.

Disturbingly low number considering how much of any particular game is designed with MP in mind and how little it is for SP

Heres the thing though, they've bundled alot of genuinely good mechanics with the terrible ones, I'd say anytime before Forts was pretty swell.
