Victoria 3 will be a sandbox game

And not a historical game. They confirmed the game will be an open sandbox experience where players can turn their country into whatever they want. Basically a full meme generator. Is this the last nail in the coffin of this game?

      So how can they go anywhere from here? A game where you can do anything can just be modded into anything.

      THREE games where you can do anything (HOI4, CK3, Vic3) means no reason to make a sequel. How will what they make next sell at all?

        Modders are ultimately limited by the infrastructure PDX creates. Is EU3 a better game than EU4? I don’t know, but EU4 mods are definitely better because EU4 is better raw material for modders to work with. EU5 will be better than EU4 just enough to convince players and modders alike to switch.

            CK3 had two big problems. One was few of the modders had the relevant skills to alter the new 3d character models, which severely slowed all the big overhaul mods that had planned to migrate from CK2. This was always going to be an issue - messing with art assets is not something the modding community has ever been good at, and the more sophisticated the assets become the fewer the modders there'll be who can do anything with them. The second is that Paradox took a year-long hiatus from supporting the game when covid hit, which caused their strategy of releasing a content-bare framework of a game and filling it out later to backfire as everyone lost interest and moved on before the dlc's started rolling out.

              Another big problem is how much of CK3 is hardcoded. I know personally how shit some of this shit is because the framework for my futa mod won't let my futa knock up other women.

                No doubt.
                They hardcoded marriage to only be between men and women. Took them nearly two years to untangle their messy code so mods could have marriage equality. ME was also added it as an game rule option, much to the dismay of the far right fan base.

          EU4 has too much DLC bloat to warrant it.
          Even EA is struggling to justify a Sims 5 because they aren't willing to make the game better (4 was a downgrade similar to Paradox sequels - undercooked human models, other art downgraded to PS2 tier, reduction in features) in a way that would restart the cash cow for a new generation.

                Yes. I gave it long and careful consideration. Because I feel that Paradox needs to know just how excited they made me feel. Unfortunately I could not find Sweden. Lord knows I tried. Denmark, Norway, Finland, I had no problem. But Sweden? Nope. I must have taken a wrong turn at Leningrad or something. I did find some country overrun with immigrants, but I think that was Germany.
                Its really a shame. I would have loved to have emptied the sloppy contents of my rectum right at the entrance to the Paradox Fuhrer bunker. I would have have been screaming "THREE BUTTONS!" loud as a bastard, while spraying my ass around like a Flammenwerfer.

That's when I do manage to get them out. Often they just nudge out a bit, nope out, and then retreat back up my anus. As if they were afraid of the water. I imagine its how gay sex feels.

      The shitposting (get it?) is unironically one of the best things to happen to the vic3 threads. There's no reason to keep these threads up when the discussion has already been worn out and everyone already realizes that the game will be a hot steaming pile of shit, much like the one I took just now. The only problem is the fact that it took me a week to shove it out my rectum from how unexcited I am about Vic3. Me taking a shit and posting about it is going to be infinitely more entertaining than discussing why Vic3 will be terrible for the 5 millionth time. Either rock out, or get out. Your choice.

        I really couldn't agree more. But I think there is more to the poo-shitposter ( shitposters? maybe more than one guy ). I suspect its also becasue its is virtually impossible to have a reasonable discussion on these boards. The noise to signal ratio is just too high. So all the posts about wet poos and hard poos is not just a satirical commentary on the futility of discussing Victoria 3 but also a wider criticism about the nature of Ganker. It might be summed up as "When its all full of shit the only worth adding is more shit."
        Anyway, thank you for reading my thesis draft. I will be publishing it soon.

      So you have hard poos. Yes. Its a major problem, I know. Sitting on the toilet, grunting away, trying to shift the little b***h.
