Grand Strategy Imperator: Rome - the new grand strategy from Paradox

[Raghar]

Damn i bought it last summer on a sale but i bothered to play it just now, i don't understand a shit.
I thought it was a sort of CK2 but instead it seems like an excel simulation decorated with roman eagles.

Excel simulation would be awesome, because it would simulate stuff. This is just a random clicking on the map.

I will play devil's advocate and say that not every thing is bad about Imperator with 2.0 - The Greeks and Romans are well defined (unlike literally the rest of the map) and the culture/religion mechanics work nicely. It's a bit more syncretic overall which makes sense for the time period.

Maybe i can't find them but:

• There is no way, when assigning a job, to order characters by stat/loyalty?
• A roman family is scorned because they don't have enough jobs, but for assigning them a job i need to open the characters panel then remembers the name of one of the family members then go to province/army/research and assign the job there by browsing through a character list hoping i can remember the name. That's crazy, there is no Assign job option?
  Ok, found this one

I uninstalled it after sacrifing to Mars and gaining +2.3 something %.
Are the other paradox games, a part from CK2, like that? I own EU4 with all DLCS (never played), Hearts of Iron IV (all dlc, never played), Stellaris (all dlcs, played for 2 hours but i don't remember)

Did you actually buy all that shit or did you find it floating on the high seas?

 

[zapotec]

I bought it, after quitting smoking and being lockdown since last year i pratically swim in money

 

[AgentFransis]

It's your money, but there are better ways to spend it than dropping hundreds on games you probably wouldn't like and all their shitty DLCs.

There's stuff you are mising about deities, first you need to upgrade the temple, only possible in a metropolis, then you add and swap relics to them , giving much more significant bonuses. Then the best option is to grant divinity to one of your rulers, he needs very high prestige, and the best stats he has the best bonus it grant . Every paradox game is different, you should probably play something easier like stellaris.

You are mostly right, i am just used to play CK2 and this is super bland in comparison.

 

[thesecret1]

I gave this game a spin after all the shilling about 2.0 and holy shit, it's so bad. There's nothing to do except pain the map, there's little in the way of flavour, and it's so damn boring! The AI is the dumbest one yet, and internal politics are a joke

CK2 is lot more focused on characters interaction and its a rpg grafted on a strategy game, it has years of DLCS and content, but imperator is getting better, the best part being the roman and greek empires.

To be fair CK2 is probably their best game.

No, because I already know the answer: They just didn't give enough of a shit to make sure cultures use the correct gender laws.

Yes. In a Republic. The head of the republic is a woman.

People who minmax these games instead of playing them as RPGs

Minmaxing IS playing them as RPGs

Have you pirated it?

Arggggggghhhhhhhhhh I sent my neighbours of fire. What to do what to do to finish them off?

What's it to you?

I was just curious if you were conned to pay money for it, or borrowed it/watched for free/pirated it. (Most shops allows return when you played less than 2 hours.)

LoL imagine if majority of codexers were dumb enough to get scammed in to buying that garbage. On release i sailed this shit for about 30 minutes and already regretted the waste of bandwidth. Tho we do have a few special sparkles that are dumb enough,but they mainly talk about how great star citizen is. I doubt secret chan is one of them.
