Best Paradox game to get into as of 2026 and why?
Bump
stellarisbecause it's the best
>>733676035CK2 with a mod for your fantasy setting of preference.
Is EU4 game complete yet?
Victoria 2 with HPM or HFM
>>733679849That's a 15 year old game
>>733679813It was at 1.30.6 but they ruined it with too much micromanagement.
>>733679486Feel like ck3 is better for this now.>>733676035Ck2 or 3. You get so much more attached to what is going on in the game.
>>733676035Don't. They're all half-baked and get worse and worse as each DLC adds a new layer of bloat that doesn't mesh cohesively with the base game. Flawed studio and flawed model.If you must, and you're new to the genre, play CK2. It's finished, was made at a time when they cared about strategy gameplay, and you haven't played it to death yet it will all be fresh.
>>733682715I can play as a merchant republic yet?
>>733676035vic2vic2
>>733682715CK3 is dogshit. The only thing it does better is doll eugenics.
>>733676035CK3 is the only one with loli mods, so CK3.
>>733683096CK2 doesn't have loli mods?
anyone interested in doing a /v/ multiplayer session for one of the games?i don't know how to host
>>733676035EUIV with Anbennar, a lot of very different experiences and mechanics throughout the campaigns
>>733683213idk but its harem mechanics are lacking
>>733676035Knights of Honorignore all mapshit posters
>>733684640>anon asks about mapshit>no play something elseretard>b-but paradox published it!they didn't develop it, paradox makes mapshit
>>733679329this, i have surviving mars in my backlog too but i dunno how good or not that game is
>>733684640>Knights of HonorWhat is it about?
>>733676035EU5 :^)
>>733687867It was released already?
>>733686150It's a Nascar simulator game. You play as an overweight fan in the crowd.
>>733676035CK2
>>733688481Yeah, paid early access. Without calling it that, of course.
>>733688924>paid early access
>>733688481Haha.... It's a long storyEu5 dropped and it was like crack, and updates were coming every 1-2 days, and up until 1.0.7 things were looking really bright as things were starting to coalesce into a truly great /gsg/Then Johan developed or picked up a drug habit and started changing shit in totally nonsense fashion, stopped updated for 1.5 months, started them back up to start February, and it's all been downhill since. If you wanna play it just get 1.0.7 and get the mods which flesh the events out and fix a lot of the balance shit, it's still good. But he's totally shit all over us who were just trying to enjoy the game
>>733679849>>733683042>Victoria 2Is this a game or something? It's just charts and graphs on a screen. Maybe I'm getting trolled?
>>733690804Vicky2 for economic and pop autismHoi3 for OOB autismSimple as
>>733690804Shame I can't play this because the UI is too small and outdated.
>>733679813Don't listen to that other fag. There's barely any micromanagement in the game. I've always hoped they would add more of it desu.
CK2 or Stellaris?
>>733691325Good question.
>>733686150CK if it was a video game
>>733676035Don't, play Total War instead
Hoi4
>>733691325both are stale but at least the random map gen of stellaris provides some sort of variety
>>733676035Hoi4 with EaW mod. Don't bother with vanilla
