Yes to the harem, no to the execution; but if you have the sadist trait you can use hostile scheme against your kids and assassinate them. AtomikKrab posted:My body is ready but my wallet is not. CK3 is launching on PC Game Pass which can still be had for the $1 trial period!

Raged posted:Is there a reason we can't preorder this on steam? There are problems with age restrictions / ratings if you're in Australia that caused it to be pulled. They're trying to resolve them and recently fixed it for New Zealand.

Robert of Apulia in 1066 is always a fun start, not too easy but also powerful. You start with a horde of ambitious family and dynasty members, are in a war with the Byzantines for control of Epirus, and are perfectly situated to take Sicily from the Muslims and form the Kingdom of Sicily. From then on you can use your power base to either invade the HRE for their Italian holdings, to inherit them through strategic marriages with Matilda of Tuscany, or to just wait till they eventually secede from the HRE and gobble them up - or you can go an entirely different path with the crusades and try to eke out a crusader realm in the outremer.

fuf posted:I'm still enjoying these but in some ways it's hard to know who the target audience is. The content is too introductory for experienced players, but they are so fast-paced and cursory that I don't think new players would find them very useful either. I agree. I'm not sure if this helps new people, but maybe the narrative explanation helps sell the basic concepts? I'm hopeful that streamers will be able to publish their videos starting tomorrow.

Veryslightlymad posted:One thing I would like to see is with hooks: we know that if you have a strong hook on someone, you can force them into your schemes, but I bfeel like they should have an opportunity to expose their own secret, depending on what you're asking them to do. Like, if you ask someone to murder someone they have an enormous opinion of, there should be some people who still refuse, even at great risk to themselves.

CharlestheHammer posted:Imperator is a fine game but yes the reception will be similar. Imperator is not a fine game, lol And "Paradox fans" can't be that predictable when the "trend" you're referencing is only for one game.

teacup posted:I think this one has a lot of “internet street cred” going for it, bubbling above the just general scene. Stellaris had a lot of issues and look at it now- huge reception. Probably 4 PM Central European Summer Time so about midnight for you I'd guess.

TOOT BOOT posted:I feel like Paradox fans are pretty inclined to leave negative reviews these days. It might seem that way in passing but to me its reflective of the quality of the DLC and the monetization for each individual game. Here's how the latest DLCs for each of their big games did, it's not a general negative trend in any way: For their full releases after CK2: Imperator was an outlier because it was a bad game, no matter how many times someone goes "Imperator was ROBBED".

Hordes are playable as tribals, catholicism has no college of cardinals or antipopes. Crusade/Jihad mechanics are basically Holy Fury. Ham fucked around with this message at 10:44 on Aug 25, 2020 |

disaster pastor posted:Wasn't there a DD or a Q&A where they said the Byzantines have a simplified inheritance structure right now, and expanding that is going to come in a DLC where their goal is to get it much better than CK2 did? I remember that as well but can't place where they said it.

Dante posted:Is there an embargo on streamers until release? I'm hesitant to buy a paradox title without seeing it in action even though I love CK2. Seems strange streamers aren't part of the hype marketing before release. Streamers will start releasing content around 6PM CEST today. orangelex44 posted:They don't have a single achievement about crusading. How? quote:19.

Pyromancer posted:I've heard tales of this mythical "Game Pass", but looking where people say it is only finds "We are sorry, the page you requested cannot be found." as soon as I reveal where I'm from. Some foul sorcery is afoot, I'm sure. It isn't really worth it in my opinion, but you can get around that by: - changing the Microsoft Store region to US - buying Xbox $10 digital codes off US Amazon, which you can do with any international card so long as the shipping address is in the US. - redeem your code on the Xbox app and claim the $1 trial offer for however long it's there for

So about the Australia situation, Paradox hasn't said anything definitive yet but there's a good chance it might be because of this: https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2005L01286 Looks like this really might take a while to resolve if they have to publish a separate version of the game without incest/sex events.

PittTheElder posted:I mean the line right before that is "gratuitous, exploitative, or offensive depictions of", which I would hardly think applies. Maybe nude 3D characters in events is what pushes it over that line?

LordMune posted:The art team truly went above and beyond. We all did; this is not a game Paradox Dev Studio could have released as late as just a couple of years ago. Not that there won't be missteps and disappointments (in other titles) in the future, but I feel CK3 has fundamentally transformed the games we make and how we make them. Congrats on making what looks to be a phenomenal game, and I was also on the Stellaris train from the start! I'm curious though, what changed internally to allow for the kind of shift you speak of? Is it simply good project management and tech investment?
