    If true, they will choke on it after the Season 8 debacle.

    Paradox has been saying (in some business presentation or interviews) they'd like to build their own IPs than using other's IP, so probably not.

    An alternate history Cold War scenario can work tho, a (potentially) good example of this being the still unreleased The New Order mod for HoI4. You really just need to be willing to go wild, the big problem with every single modern day mod for any HoI is still that they simply aren't even bothering of thinking about implications of a scenario on gameplay and so make everything BORING by following real events.

    And in this it should be noted that the World of Darkness stuff isn't someone else's IP for them, they own the entire thing. They are the ones doing the licensing to Onyx Path and Modiphius.

    (Empire of Sin is totally a possible VtM strategy game title)

    Regarding a Cold war game being modeled on Twilight Struggle, the devs of the failed Paradox attempt at a cold war game East vs West were inspired by it in the game they went onto.
    Terminal Conflict if anyone is interested in that.

    About year ago someone from Paradox was talking about how some of them want to make a grand strategy out of Tyranny.

    Every paradox game is the exact same game with a different UI.
    "Brand new game"? Does anyone really believe this?

    AGOT, though a mod, gets pretty close to "fantasy." I would be interested in a fantasy setting. It'd be fun to play as incestuous orcs, wreaking havoc on the countryside.

    Paradox should pay Infinitron for the rights to make an RPG Codex grand strategy game. Conquer the forums with shitposting and trolling, while building your army of stalkers to support you in flame wars.

    Posting on the Codex, in its own way, is playing an RPG.

    Great only what? 7 years of waiting after the game is comes out on Steam to be finished? Can't wait.
    No, really I can't wait. I'm already too old for this shit. Paradox can shove their business model up their own asses.

    I really want a fantasy version of Crusader Kings, it has endless possibilities with DLCs so I really dont know why Paradox didnt already announced it.
