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 the same as all Paradox games, then.
yes
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?
Stop posting
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.
>EU5 will be better than EU4 just enough to convince players and modders alike to switch
Just like CK3 am i right
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.
Wait what, paradox hardcoded what a woman is? That ain't woke!
Turns out they are woke but only for things that are easy or quick to do. Tell a dangerhair manager that there is a gender injustice and she will be up in arms until you tell her how many manhours it will require to change then she suddenly turns into a ruthless capitalist.
You guys are like creepy 65 year olds trying to fit in with teenagers
>like
what the frick is a 'lady-pede'
Female partner of centipede.
>Wait what, paradox hardcoded what a woman is?
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.
Which is hillarius, as paradevs chill that CK3 be much more moddable and modders friendly than CK2, and on release we get even more hardcoded crap.
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.
all eu5 need is a better trade system and couple of 4's dlc features and people will switch
HOI3 is a better game than HOI4 even though HOI4 has a larger modding community.
Thats cause hoi4 is such a barebones game with no options for anything and the entire game is railroaded by focuses
What are your computer specs?
I do not think in V2 you could invade England as the Kingdom of Congo at any point in the game without cheating the dumb AI. Something like this historical abhomination should be possible in V2, and even encouraged. This is a jump in sandbox quality.
Possible in V3*
>if you play V2 crazy well you can do meme shit, and that is okay
>If you play V3 crazy well you can do meme shit, and that is BAD
Never said any of that.
I've turtled as Zulu before and was able to invade British and Portuguese colonial possessions during late game, this was in vanilla though and not in Grandimod
Grandimod?
>Basically a full meme generator
I don’t know how I inferred this from that sentence alone but you are definitely fat and underage
No need to seethe.
Who would think that calling someone fat and underage as an insult would make a nuchanner b***h out
Well, you are wrong. Why are you shitposting without contributing to the discussion? Do I need to call the jannies?
Because you are projecting gaylord bootlicking Pdx of all companies.
>projecting
this word is like a giveaway someone is cutting their wrists and sobbing tears of pure impotent rage
>No you
Ehrm, no. I am neither fat or underage, quite the opposite, actually. You started this thing instead of bringing actual arguments to the table. Sorry
>You started this thing instead of bringing actual arguments to the table.
LMAO are you actually gay
You ever wake up and think "the frick am I doing with my life spamming the same fricking pictures on /gsg/ and /vst/ constantly?"
Imagine being this butthurt you have to keep commenting the same shit over and over. Absolutely assblasted, go drink some mom's milk.
>Absolutely assblasted, go drink some mom's milk.
Why do ESLs have such fruity sayings that they insist on using in English lmao
Ah, thanks for exposing yourself, polenschizo.
Now we know you're just shitposting instead of deluded lmao
All poles are delusiona, tho
All I know is that I am very excited by Victoria 3. So much that I am pooing myself everyday. Watery, unexpected, and violent poos at that.
I am genuinely happy for you. I wish V3 had the same effect on my intestine.
Thank you for the kind words. Having one's bowels involuntarily cleansed of feces is certainly a beneficial effect, although admittedly a rather embarrassing and messy one at times.
I am sure that once you have experienced the joyful excitement that come from choosing among three buttons for all your warfare requirements the excitement of Victoria will become more apparent.
3 buttons? It sounds like an improvement, Victoria 2 had 1 button regarding warfare, if we exclude the recruitment: "move your stack to a chokepoint".
WTF? Why did you tell me that before? Now I am literally EXPLODING with VIOLENT DIARRHEA!
Have you considered relieving your bowels just before the entrance of PDX HQ?
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. Paradox needs to know how much their fans love them, hopefully someone will succeed where I have failed.
>flammenwerfer
i too sir, am a fan of both history and the epic reddit history memes ! 😀 HANS GET THE FLAMMENWAFFLEZ xDDDDD
You have no idea how much your kind words of support mean to me and my uncontrollably wayward sphincter. If it were possible on this beleaguered forum I would upboat your post at least ONE BILLION MILLION times. Then I would create at least a CUMZILLION throwaway accounts, get them all up to a thousand Karma each by making staggeringly inane hivemind comments designed to appeal to fricking morons, and then upboat you into TRANSLUNAR orbit, while also making some poignant comment about respecting pronouns.
The idea of doing this has made me quite excited. Excuse me for a moment while I expunge a deluge of hot excrement from my anal cavity.
If it wasn’t clear I was calling you embarrassing
No dear Anon, you are confused. I was taking a dump of very hot and watery shit on you. Its a tragedy you didn't notice. I shall endeavour to push harder next time.
Pls sdob 😀
terminally unfunny
You dont like my big fat sloppy greasy poos? What the frick is wrong with you?
Consider the rope.
It merrily dangles, awaiting your arrival.
You love my stinking filthy dirty worm infested shits. Just admit it. You want to roll in them. They make you excited. Just like I am excited for Victoria 3 !
you will never be a Victoria 3 player.
Good morning Sir
I am Sir, to pleased to have being meeting with honorable pooer such as myself. Let us being of play Victoria3 and making of the poos together, Sir.
Cringe.
Sir! I can be of assurance there is nothing being cringe of my poo! Is finest poo Sir! Being much betterment than your second hand poo, Sir!
Just quit it with the runny poo jokes. My poos have been hard as frick for weeks ever since Victoria 3 was announced. Yeah, okay, the three buttons bullshit pisses me off, but I never knew it was going to make my shit as hard as rocks.
Soft poo beta larping as solid poo chad.
I wouldn't mind if they were just solid poos. But these frickers are like shitting out pieces of fricking concrete. I can hear them "clink" as they hit the bottom of the bowl. 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. Its most unsettling.
What the lack of Vic3 does to a mf..
Its not the lack of Vic3, its just how bad it is. I cant help it if a game is so bad it petrifies my crap. Look, at this point I would prefer to like mashing 3 buttons if it meant I could sit down and have a jolly decent crap, rather than straining for ages in the hope that one of my reluctant poos will venture out into this brave new world.
Jesus Christ where the frick are the jannies
Generally speaking hard poos dont make such a mess. Its the wet explosive ones that take a lot of cleaning up. Those people excited by Victoria 3 will be making a lot of messes.
Bloody b***hh bastard
Bhenchod Sir
They added mission trees aka semi-forced railroading
The journal entries? They look mostly harmless to me, unless they give you "rewards", which I am not aware of.
>unless they give you "rewards"
Obviously they will give you rewards just like in every other game
I specifically remember from the leak that quite a lot of them give you tech points and others give you modifiers and the like
Then I was wrong. This is even worse than I thought.
Trannies ruined Paradox games
Did any of you morons even play vic2 ? You already could do whatever you wanted to.
what are the odds the war system crashes and burns so badly they have to remake it?
>what are the odds the war system crashes and burns so badly they have to remake it?
I wonder if they already have designs ready for a more in depth war system that they're planning to sell separately.
Zero. If you played the beta, you'd realize combat is the least of the game's problems.
what's the deal with bowel release and victoria 3?
Forced meme
how moddable is CK3? I'd imagine Vic3 will be on par or better
>Ehrm, no. I am neither fat or underage, quite the opposite, actually. You started this thing instead of bringing actual arguments to the table. Sorry
I just cant stop thinking about Victoria 3. And every time I do I have an explosive shit. ITS JUST THAT DANG EXCITING!
Modders will fix it.
Nice pepe you got there.
I dont know why some of you guys keep going on about shitting your pants with excitement. Victoria 3 looks boring as hell and my poos have never been harder and more difficult to shit out. Painful even.
vic3 will suck, but not as much as the forced shitter memes. degeneracy is so unbecoming.
Du wirst die Scheiße essen
I'm troony btw
You mean trans?
y-yea?
Do trans 'people' even possess mental calibre high enough to be able to play strategy games?
As far as I can remember, most trannies are autistic so I suppose it does fit the bill
Who would win in a no holds barred physical scuffle between a /vst troony and a /vst janny?
I imagine the jannies would win due to the sheer difference in weight. The trannies would be crushed, both metaphorically and literally.
ynbaw
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.
Sir is, I am to say, unfathomably based, Sir!
I must of eat curry now Sir!!
Rude, offensive and uncalled for.
I want to roll in your hot steaming pile of shit.
Do Americans really?
You haven't seen pics of the fat American Walmart shoppers? The ones who have shitty pants? Protip. They were all excited for Vic3
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.
Played the leak, the game as a whole is boring as frick
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.
>a war system more complex than three buttons? H*ck no you chud.
>yaaaas look at the detailerinos on my marxerino!
