CK3 is comfy mostly because it's so simplified, but this is also what makes it sort've boring once you recognize all the common events
>>
I still haven't played one of these

Is Stellaris the only first-party Pdox game where you can actually see the battles occuring in a non-abstract way?
>>
>>746020201
I think there was one 4x that let you do the battles in another game from the same studio. Dunno if it was Paradox's game.
>>
>>746020008
No. There are no true autists playing these games. No autist would put up with their monetization model. These are games for posers that want to feel smart when they play a video game.

How do I win without cheating?
I am not playing on the easiest mode, but the one that gives me only slight buffs.
It feels like every time I get set up, something comes along and totally fucks me over.
My last try I was doing okay, but I had some fallen empire on the other side of the galaxy always wanting me to prostrate myself before them. I did so for like a century, before I told them to go fuck off, thinking I was okay with my military, and my fortifications.

Victoria 3 is the only good game in the roster solely because it requires at least half a brain to play properly

CK3 is excellent, but it gets tedious having to use mods to make it more fun. I don't understand why the game isn't more mature. how many children actually play CK3? It is a game that naturally appeals to an adult audience.

from my understanding in their usual process of oversimplifying like retards they managed to accidentally make the perfect historical sims-like that children and women can enjoy and are planning on infinitely milking it.

CK2 is fun if you like roleplaying(as in making up a stories about the event and characters not in the jrpg sense) CK3 is a worse version but still fine for that, it's may still be "autism" but it's a different kind of autism than the excel simulator micromanaging autism of the other paradox games
>>
>>746020279
true autists prefer simple games

More like awkward, obnoxious, bullied, memelord teenagers The Game
Nu-Paradox games (Anything released after EU3/HOI3) are made for children, they have arcadey mechanics that try extremely hard to appear complicated much more complicated than they are on the surface but you need to be a legit retard to be unable to cheese them to be OP and steamroll the game, so that people who are slightly less retarded feel like they are doing something so ebin and kewl. The games have a retarded ecosystem full of memester goyslop youtubers constantly shilling their extremely half-assed buggy garbage DLCs to kids.
I fucking hate this garbage company, its community and their shitty games so much.

>>746020306
fallen empires don't reinforce unless they wake up. stack the shit out of a system, fight them, accept the defeat and kneel.. while stealing their schizotech components from the 4 ships you managed to blow up.
if they were truly across the galaxy that sounds like a wormhole/gateway as not even psionic jump drives have such range. stack a bunch of cqc ships near the exit to swarm the fuck out of them, again any ship you kill is gone for good while you can rebuild.

Age of Wonders? Published by Paradox as of now, but not made by them.
>>
>>746020008
>neither Minecraft, nor Factorio
wrong

>>746020008
I still play ck2

They're really not that autistic. It's not rocket surgery to get to where you can enjoy them, but there is potential for truly aspergic minmaxing too.
Shit like ultra optimized EU4 runs make me rapidly age just imagining actually playing them out, the sheer amount of jank exploited and game restarts would drive me insane before I got to 1500.

Ck2 lets you have sister wives and daughter wives, soooo it remains one of the best vidya ever

>>746021931
most people are retarded, doesn't mean the game is actually hard or complex
>>
>>746023071
Must've been Field of Glory Empires, also not sure why I wrote 4x instead of grand strategy.
>>
Are there strategy games for the middle class? I can't afford hundreds of DLCs for Paradox games and I refuse to risk getting banned due to CreamApi.
>>
>>746023361
Does CK3 have that too?
>>
>>746023767
If what you're looking for is total war-like, I want to shill these 2.

The dev of tabletop tavern also mentioned that he will never do paid dlc/update, so I think it's fine to support him.

They're huge time sinks, well maybe except HOI since you can finish one campaign in one sitting.
Newer games tend to add some cool features while either simplifying and casualizing the rest of the game or just simply botching the execution, which sucks. EU5 was the only one in recent memory that tried to be more complex, but then they botched it even more. You just can't win.

just pirate the entire games paradox pvp sucks anyway

This has never happened in the history of man. If you really fear it then just pirate the whole game, downloading mods isn't that much of a pain in the ass so you won't be missing out on much.
