Why the fuck would you waste your time reading that PR shit???? 10-15 minutes of gameplay will tell you everything you need to know about the game.I meant that if you spend hours digesting all the pre-release info, sure you'll know a lot, but if you just skim some DDs or something, then it's more like "oh man a cool mix of EU/CK/Rome but oh man there's some worrying shit like mana spam"
I watch a some gameplay like dev clash or florry when i have a meal. I too don't watch dev streams and pr shit.Took me less time. I generally don't like watching dev streams or shit, I'm not on Twitter, etc. If it's a game I have no idea about I'll glance at somebody's gameplay video on mute. With Paradox, I mean we already know 80% of the game just by virtue of it being Paradox. I figured I'd wait for actual post-release impressions about how the mechanics play out over sustained play. No rush.
ITS OK EVERYONE THEY HAVE A ROADMAP! CRISIS AVOIDED.
edit: Johan is a massive prick.
Also if I knew the corruption mechanics were so broken I wouldn't have ever said what I said about game duration then. So clearly all the streamers are playing too passive because they assume Aggressive Expansion and Corruption are bad things but really they are inconsequential. Oof.
Watching any video is waste of time. Any summary?

TLDR: Game is shit, its a hollow shell of badly implemented features ripped from previous games. But Paradox are "happy" with it and cite the classic BS argument "all games release with issues, it will all be fixed with patches and DLC, we have a roadmap! You should be happy to pay us your money for years to come you stupid ungrateful plebs."
He has a good point that the "DLC will make it better" argument was kind of ok years ago when ck2 and eu4 released. But now that doesnt fly anymore, they have had years of experience crating these systems and I:R is a disgrace to release in this state. Its good to see someone saying this as most of the Youtube shill "influencers" are peddling the same BS as Paradox.
Do you watch Isorrowproductions? He primarily does videos on Paradox games and he didn't like it at all.
Even fabricating claims is dumb at this time period. Yeah right I am sure Caesar fabricated claims against Gauls when he took it.
It would need total overhaul to be even remotely interesting or playable.

Yes if by this you mean that what Ceasar did to justify his operations to the Senate and to gain legitimacy among the Gauls themselves was a lot more complex and elaborate.
The claim fabrication works as a diplomatic relation, not an internal justification.
