I never played ck2 but I know that eu4 with and without dlc are like different games

I feel like the amount stuff paradox are putting behind dlc is better than what it was before either games like ck2, however, the quality of the stuff in the dlc has gotten a lot worse

They saw Sony and Microsoft trying to steal their title of “worst videogame company” and decided to make sure they keep the title

Take Two are an evil company

It is a shame they’re such a greedy company because, similarly to what you said in your 3rd paragraph, they make good games, some can be as good as games like factorio at times, but it’s always ruined by their dlc.

You mentioned free updates at the end, I believe they are doing that for victoria 3, but their first big expansion for the game, spheres of influence, comes out in June so we’ll see if they stick to that.

I love paradox games and have the money to by their dlc most the time and will keep buying the ones I want (because the beach dlc was too far even for the largest paradox shills) as long as the game’s stability and the free players are prioritised, unlike the way they have been treated in cities: skylines 2.

And yes, fuck paradox, shame their games are ruined by their greed.

But it does, sadly.

I am actually planning on not buying anything more from paradox if they fuck up the launch of eu5, only dlc from current games (if they’re worth it/required)

and cancel multiple in-development projects

Please don’t cancel civ 7/whatever game they’re working on

I think they did the same thing with anno 1800, only difference is they haven’t cracked it yet so no dlc on the pirated version.

This was too late. Paradox’s in house development studio did the same thing with Victoria 3. Do something way too greedy (lock historical characters behind a preorder for a dlc that was already bad). Waited to see the backlash, and when it was too much, they make the bonuses free.

At least they’re doing something, but the dlc should have been pushed back at launch.

Invasive, non cosmetic, overpriced microtransactions.

And also locking entire updates behind dlc like how paradox interactive did (and still kind of does)

Thanks, does it usually miss votes and comments then?

and on sh.itjust.works:

Have they even given a timeframe for when mods will release because I haven’t seen them say anything about it since launch, I’m assuming because another team is developing it.

It’s on the .57 machine and in the same docker environment as the proxy

I’m not sure if this is a response to my comment but the article I linked isn’t about setting a secondary dns, the fritz!box has a function that allows it to temporarily change the dns (usually to 8.8.8.8) if the specified dns isn’t working. It is separate from the “normal” dns settings.

https://fritzhelp.avm.de/help/en/FRITZ-Box-7530-AX-avme/avme/021/hilfe_internet_public_dns I found this guide for the fritz!box to set up a fallback dns, I think it should be on by default as it is on mine but I would read the article just to make sure

That’s what I was trying to say. It looks good if you don’t view the new game as just “more prison architect 1” instead of an entire new game

The subsidies have never saved me from failing before, they only make me fail slower (if that makes sense). It might just be something I’m experiencing though.
