Bort Bortles posted:EU4 is in a really great place right now, but I cannot comment on CK2. Are there any LPs or threads or...I dunno, websites, I guess, that are good for teaching new players how to play EU4 in its current state? I got it at launch, got overwhelmed, put it down, then recently bought all the major DLC up to but not including Cossacks in a steam sale (cossacks was the only one not on sale) and I'm kind of itching to play again but not without an idea of what I'm actually doing, because I don't want to get flustered and quit again. I know that there are "let's learn how to play EU4" LPs but I have no sense of how out of date they might be since there have been so many expansions for the games. Or maybe the game itself has a tutorial that actually properly teaches you what you need to know to do well? I don't know.

Bort Bortles posted:The EU4 thread here is: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3725024&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1 Ah, thank you--didn't occur to me that there would be a separate EU4 thread from the paradox one (I only ever browse from my bookmarks these days). I'll take my questions there then!

Bort Bortles posted:I'll never forget how much of a shithead the Dev was when he was posting here. The fact that he got trolled off the forums and then ended development of Stardrive 1 when it is still buggy and broken as poo poo means I will never buy another one of that rear end in a top hat's games unless it is really good. And thankfully there are alternatives coming out this year so I wont be tempted to buy it. Yeah, that was my "ok, no more buying things in Early Access" moment. I had big hopes for the game because the dude seemed pretty responsive at first, but then he disappeared and announced a sequel instead of fixing the game that he already made and nope I don't think I'll be buying that, thank you, even if it turns out to be the most perfect space 4x of all time. It's the principle

Now I'm curious what wording of "refugees welcome" could possibly satisfy that man "Tolerate Undesirables"?

uPen posted:Nobody actually plays with an unmodded hitler portrait... right? I actually do feel legitimately uncomfortable playing as Germany in HOI because I hate seeing hitler's face every time I go into the politics screen, like "that's me, i'm Hitler" I somehow never thought to look for mods

Lum_ posted:I thought this mod was funny until I found out Nazis unironically worship Taylor Swift as an Aryan goddess figure. Yeah for some reason being stalin and literally choosing to enact the great purge doesn't bother me at all, but looking at a picture of hitler gives me the heebie jeebies. It doesn't make much sense but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's a very fun nation to play from a gameplay perspective, being a plucky little militaristic upstart and seeing how much of the world you can conquer. You just have to uh, not think too hard about what your actions represent

I had never heard of realpolitiks until today, in this thread, but it looks extremely my poo poo so thanks for posting about it even though it isn't a paradox game

Imagine four paradox franchises on the edge of a cliff
