"[Mana] was one of the first features we talked about, and it worked in the game and is a nice, balanced system," Andersson says. "I don't understand why people want to buy a game that has major core features that they don't like. Well, if the customers want something different, we'll just have to change the game to do that."

Sooo speaking of incompetence....here is my latest game as mugles after all the missions.

It is a fucking border gore galore. The stupid retards have missed adding 8-11 regions in the missions. Eight if you decide to let the part with Champa and Ayutthaya go as being kind off a border. But the rest is just retarded laziness. Now,when i do work i try to be easy going,but seeing such shit really piss me off. If i was the boss of their garbage company,i would fire 90% of the team. The QA team is extremely garbage,you could do the content of the dlc in a day or two of lazy playing for fun. Not being able to see all this misses means that they haven't played the nation at all. Fucking lazy gits!!!

This is like the owner of the only cakery in a town that sells a specific desserts wondering why people are mad, yet keep buying their treats after they decided to make the icing out of their own feces.

That owner needs to start selling Cancer Cure Hot Cakes I heard GTA sells like it was them or something like that.

Paradox has become so desperate, they are now using sockpuppets:

My Imperator experience.

Like wine and cheese the best way to consume it is not quickly but to savour every taste. This is my first paradox game I have gotten at launch and I love it. So much I hate to ruin it so I have erected a media blackout and have not watched any or read anything about Imperator. I love it. I live and breathe Grand strategy and this is my first from the antiquity. And I say a worthy one. I look forward to the years of paradox development. I haven't even finished my first game as Rome and I have over 100 hours put in. Here's to many more hours and to much more features.

Complete turnaround

Wow! Such a drastic overnight change. On launch I couldn’t play for more than an hour but now I’m hooked and can’t stop. After a few more updates this may be my favorite paradox title.

You know what that means?

VICTORIA 3 CONFIRMED
Requested by dozens!
Do you people really want victoria 3 ? It will end up as the same garbage as imperator.
Even after lessons learnt from Imperator, taking of gradually Imperator & Johan of mana (like every mana junkie, he put some symbolic fight to it) and even if Doomdark is Victoria 3's composer,hm?

Go on, rate me all with fabulously optimistic, Pompey patch is genuine incline and you all have too many grudges in your heart for Paradox to make room in it for small hope. And despite all flaws, Paradox is among my TOP 5 publishers, Swedish cucks & cucketts listen to feedback, cause unlike EA they can't afford not to. + their CEO is based Swedish boomer dad, probably secretly votes for Sweden Democrats but pssst

They listen because Imperator was a disaster and even then the shit they actually take away from the criticism is wrong. Doesn't help that their forums are filled with nothing but cocksuckers and lickspittle cucks.

Well there are certain things about Victoria 2 that are infuriating and can't be fixed by modding (namely the way that armies and mobilization works are just bad; and lesser things about RGO and world market balance), so on the offchance that it miiiiiiiight address those things yea.

EDIT: Also I want to beat back Kwa with the Sioux.

The guy is no longer CEO. He has been replaced by a progressive woman.
Yeah, just checked it. He's been CEO since 2003, 15 years is looong reign for average Roman Emperor let alone CEO. Corporate Coup took place last year. Fredrik is now co-consul of Paradox DLC Merchant Republic aka Executive Chairman (title he made up and crowned himself with). Guess his influence remains very strong inside company

There may be something that need fixing,but they will fuck the whole game and dumb it down. I too would like to conquer the world with Bulgaria.

Victoria 2's limited expansion mechanics are kind of annoying, on that note. I sort of understand the desire - balance of power and all that - but I dislike that even if you have the military force to defeat a coalition of the rest of Europe, cb restrictions will prevent you from any major expansion until you get in a Great War. But you can still do massive expansion for no infamy ie annexing all of the Austrian Empire as Prussia, so the way the game works ends up being pretty silly. I'd rather be able to map paint, if I can beat a coalition of the great powers.

Well annexing the Austrian Empire as Prussia requires a lot of metaknowledge in regards to how you can do that in the first place (also it requires a lot of work to get Austria out of the Great Powers until before late game).

Anyway, the real problem with war in Vicky 2 is really that it's almost entirely a numbers game, if you have higher population and better tech, you will win without any thought given. But the bigger problem is that the way raising armies is linked to provinces is a huge pain in the ass that adds nothing but annoyance. Personally I'd prefer a revised system based around mobilization, where tech has been decoupled from war effectiveness (at the very least, equipment should be something you can just BUY instead of a thing that can change magically overnight), in general I'd wish the tech system to be changed entirely.
