I got into the Rome beta, but my computer chugged so bad with the game in unoptimized debug mode(?), and every bug I wanted to report had already been reported by someone else that I felt like a bad beta, and I figured I'd been put on a bad beta blacklist.

It really depends on how its executed in game. If it's like MOO2, where every turn is a dozen planets demanding you update their build queue, that would be bad. If it's like EUIV, where you've five hundred provinces with ~5 building slots apiece, but you're really just going in and enhancing certain places when you've got the extra resources, that's probably fine.

Lord Tywin posted:Some more HOI IV http://www.twitch.tv/paradoxinteractive/v/29053519 , this time the dude Johan is playing against pumps out 20 completely untrained infantry divisions to trigger the anschluss in 1938 and Johan is just 200 days away from having fully motorized divisions. I was listening to 3 Moves Ahead all day at work today while doing some super repetitive database work, so coming home and having Troy Goodfellow on the stream was a weird and momentarily disorienting moment.

They're going to have to put in some sort of Federation internal politics. It's going to be awfully hard to convince players to give up control of their foreign policy 3/4 of the time. It's like a semi permanent opt in regency council. Oh boy!

EUIII came a long way, but I think EUIV has come just as far at this point. We're really on like EUVII or something. Paradox is cool.

The mechanical debt Vicky owes to Imperialism was the biggest thing I noticed when I first play V1. But Imperialism was comparatively streamlined and elegant, but Vicky 1 & 2 were like an 'ideas guy' had got a hold of it and cranked the complexity dial way past 11 to like 24.
