wtf that cant be right

dadc

crimeamod is just a more lgbt version of b&i

nothings wrong with liquor, guns, boats and texas

i remember when grandi was posting here so i looked at moddb sorted by popular mods and picked some competent looking mod basically at random and started replacing grandimod with b&i in the OP
i never to this day once played a game of that mod, i just shilled in in random posts from time to time and it cought on cuz people hated grandi that much
im coming clean now: its probably a bad mod or whatever, meme game and all

texas(arknights)

never played victoria 2 in my life, am i missing out or actually dodging a bullet?

Why can't I ever finish campaigns in eu4

it's the best paradox game ever
play it now before eu5 is fleshed out in dlcs and you spoil yourself (it's looking like it'll be a better game than liqqy after 10 years of dlcs)

>>549148618
Are we back?

yes, we're back (until the next janny ban)

victoria 2 is mediocre
its worth 1 or 2 playthroughs but really it somehow manages to be both the shortest game AND completely fall apart by lategame
the game turns nearly unplayable with constant rebels if played properly, half the ideologies dont work as your economy crashes... badboy makes for a really shitty map painter... idk it's alright i guess, what's good about it over something like eu4 is the veriety of CBs you can use (like 6) that are actually useful for something other than taking land

cant blob :((( game bad

that's vanilla and even vanilla is less retarded by the late game than other paradox games
the economy only crashes in bad mods like hpm and hpm derivatives. mods that keep the vanilla economy are fine
and it's not the infamy system that makes blobbing unfeasible, it's the accepted culture system. if you blob outside of your accepted cultures without cores you will get The Troubles in those lands 24/7/365. yes you can take a 100% french state as germania but 30 years later half its pop will either die in pointless rebellions or migrate to EE.UU.

i blobbed tho

because contrary to retards' belief, eu4 is more fun when you're the final raid boss then when you're not, it's basically goy4 lite, without the cancer rgb of course. you don't boot up eu4 expecting an emergence narrative, you boot up eu4 to map paint with the best of tools available as of now

it's not that you cant blob its that blobbing is extremely tedious
restarting the game 30 times during cb fabrication so you get 0 badboy is a horrible experience but it's necessary if you want to form arabia for example
your ability to blob should be hampered by difficulties regarding administration, rebels and what have you, not by your extremely gamey badboy RNG. eu5 is pretty good at this

you'd think with all the fucking rebels in the game this would be a good spot for them but nationalist rebels are the least of your problems, they're only a problem if the nation in question only has 1 core because that means you need to have an army there permanently

>restarting the game 30 times
why the FUCK would you do this?
just ~ event 18540 at that point if you're willing to cheat
and we might have different definitions of blobbing
to me pic related is blobbing and i did it just fine within the infamy limit (was actually my first liq2 game ever). you blob even more?

what's worse is that badboy from blobbing isnt much more than badboy from realistic actions like puppeting
i wanted to puppet central america as the USA (historical), every single shitty 1 province nation costs the same amount of infamy to puppet, which quickly adds up to be your limit
me wanting to be historical hampered my game significantly as i should have used that infamy to blob into asia instead

thats another thing, the ganme completleuy gives up on what to do about china and just asks you to please not invade them i guess otherwise it's completely fucked. it's even worse if you invade them as an unciv (heaven forbid you invade china as japan!)

is it historical doe?
they just influenced them a lot and stopped rebellions if those arose (radicals winning a rebellion in a sphereling where you invested give you a free puppet cb)

i will never ever understand why they made it so that annexing a nation's capital state costs 22 infamy
it's absolutely fucked that to annex luxembourg or san juan or some other shitty country is more infamy than to take 2 full states off of a real nation like england
when yucatan declares independence from mexicio, youd think that would be an optimal time to invade, but no, that's illegal because to annex yucatan would be 22 infamy when indpendent but much less when mexican

yeah, in eu4 or ck2 you can pick basically anybody and know you'll have an alright time, in eu5 there's some obviously unfixed parts of the world but they'll fix them i'm sure. in vic2 there's like 15 or so tags you're "supposed" to play and everything else is just a meme

test

ck3 is a little complicated topic
it's not worth pirating for a single playthrough, because its current version reportedly sucks because of the lag
if you had a pirated earlier version of ck3, one that didn't really come with the asian expansion or most of the other dlc, it would be worth at least one playthrough
pirated version i have is 1.5.1, it's fun and not laggy on my pc
you very likely won't find an archive of all pirated ck3 versions, so you'd have to buy ck3 to find which version is best for you and which dlcs to get for it

why play ck3 when ck2 is superior, especially when you install memethmod

maybe because he got bored of ck2

that's when you do other stuff and then come back to ck2 after a year of absence

maybe he'll speak for himself on that

no, we're the experts and we know better than he does

Ck2 is superior in no way

i hope the price for ck3 drops to chump change so i'll never have to feel guilty about giving them chump change instead of money actually fitting for a game

this is not to say that ck3 is absolute shit but i just hate paradox at this point
if the game was made/produced by someone else i'd pay them instead of a studio compromised by investors

you should say that ck3 is absolute shit. because it is

>a studio compromised by investors
cool it with the antisemitism
fiduciary duty is a crucial tenet of our democracy

it's not absolute shit if i enjoyed it as much as i did
it's very unique, meanwhile you suffer from ck2 nostalgia goggles

no, ck2 is absolute shit too

oh okay, carry on v2 cuck

you know your meme normie game is absolute shit so all you can do is lash out at people you make up in your head. what a waste of a poster

i played a LOT of ck2 back in my day and i got bored of it
i want to see what's up with ck3 even if they changed something for the worse it'll at least be different is my thinking
but is it good yet or do i keep waiting? also my pc is not some russian looted library linux craptop i can run ck3 i bet unless there's an actual memory leak or some shit
i played eu5 and the game is good but they had a bunch of updates daily and it got better after that, so i felt like i wasted a playthrough that couldve been better, i dont want to make the same mistake with ck3

it's in a bad state unless you want to roll back to a previous version like the newfag retard said
you should probably wait until the next major update + a few months for the hotfixes and mod updates

how strange, your post has no bite because you missed the mark so much

who are you talking to

the guy who called me a waste of a poster

it's just the local brown talking to himself so the thread stays lively, pay it no mind

alright i'll let him
maybe his posting will gain bite again

fudge brownies

in what way is ck3 in a bad state?
are we doing this thing again where poverty rune using europeans and brazilians are crying about an update adding more land coverage/provinces and the game slowing down on their 2008 intel celerons? i remember back in the day this general would cry and bitch about ck2 being "unplayable" and "in a bad state" because they added india, but i always had 0 issues with performance, i presume this to be one of those cases unless you can state otherwise

can we go back to talking about vic2 instead of vaguely alluding to the differences between the same two medieval sims games?

yes lets talk about vic3 (same as vic2)

why was this post deleted?

I'm just saying, it's nice seeing people treat their ck3 characters like actual rulers even if it's for a reddit post. Really makes the game more immersive and brings campaigns to life.

i'd go back to posting ck3 but i'm currently hooked on other games

but that's what you're supposed to do. at least that's what i did when i played ck2. i modelled my ambitions based on my ruler
you're not supposed to metagame like arumba

clicked arumbas stream and he hasnt been on in 15 days. why bros... eu5 was supposed to fix everything...

he killed himself

ck3 is so bad that it has an anti roleplay effect
you get baited with a historical setting and then the game spits on your face with shitty events and storylines that have nothing to do with and often go against history, you would have a better time closing your eyes and thinking of a medieval story yourself without any input from the game
of course redditors don't know anything about history and think everything was just like le game of thrones so this doesn't affect them. blissful ignorance.

Name 3 events that have nothing to do with history
Complaining about events being random is stupid because history is random. Who the fuck was supposed to predict the rise of the Mongols or saracens? The black death definitely seemed like RNG bullshit, or all those natural disasters like earthquakes and volcanoes.

If you have any paradox game on your computer it should uninstall itself and remove the game from your account if it ever detects you opening excel

excel lmfao does this nigga think i'm a 50yo secretary

i never relied on events because they're gay anyways
instead i savescum because i don't want cancer or inferm or any of that shit to make my stats poor
the only roleplay i want to do involves conquest goals, i don't need some intimate and detailed info on my character like whether he's a coward or he's a lustful, i just want whatever gives him more stewardship so i can control more provinces in my domain
the roleplay i care about is "look, these are the borders for my nation and its religion, and watch as it looms next to others that fight against eachother"
i treat the game like a fishtank too, where other rulers big and small are constantly fighting eachother, it's a pleasant feeling

oh yea' and i also care about my character's looks and certain traits that helps influence his appearance
the dna thing in ck3 is very interesting too

05
cat-apult
and the two flatulence events (there's more of them but pick two)

that's fair, it all depends on your tolerance for bullshit, it's not fundamentally different from ck2 but it's still worse
as in, a few decades in you'll probably have half of europe be ruled by karling andalusian sunni nomads, that either bothers you or it doesn't

oh and lastly nations collapsing because of succession is very nice too, even if it happens to me, it fits into the 'fishtank' effect where chaos is everywhere and rulers big and small are always fighting eachother

what bothers me in ck3 is the economy
you build farms and uhhhh thats it youve won the economy just build a farm or two and you're good for the entire game

ck3 could be fixed with a simple hip or ck2plus equivalent total overhaul mod. but modders are too busy modding elves and dragons and memeth trooned out before getting hired at paracocks
sucks. could have been a nice sisterfucking simulator

Infirm is pretty bullshit desu. The reason people age like shit nowadays is because our diets are shit and we're way too sedentary, also people generally died in their 60's before you could really see their bodies plummet. I don't think a 60 year old whose diet consists of natural meat and bread and is fit enough to lead his troops into battle has the same health as some 60 year old nowadays who ate McDonald's his entire life and never did any physical activities after high school

but that's how the medieval economy worked
compare that to eu5 treating peasants as dead weight meant purely for promoting into wagecuckolds

>gibberish post
LMAO
>economy
i unironically have only played as persistent tribals so i don't really deal with building much
i like to stomp the filthy feudal civilization scum, which is part of my roleplay

yeehaw

yahweh

>but that's how the medieval economy worked
i legit dont give a fuck
you build 1 building and that covers your money needs for the entire game, bad game design

What's your solution? A vic2 economy in a medieval game about dynasties?

yes.

the only thing i remember really bothering me about ck3 is when a large kingdom/empire breaks apart into this messy randomized bordergore
i have exclaves turned off but succession still leads to an eyesore that i feel obligated to clean up through annexation of parts that my character's father used to run

The only thing that bothers me in ck3 are the niggers. There's no reason for the map to go below Egypt

this is why the russians have been a more productive workforce than for example, the gemrmans or the japanese

should i play ck3

idk what happens above didndt read
heh
is ck3 worth tplaying

no, play vic2

yeah alright playing neither thanks

only if you acquire the dlc and even then only for a run or two

Every time I load my ironman save in EU5. I keep getting all the pop-ups for any achievements I got in the past. Any way to fix that other than pray to Johan to fix it?

i would like to remind you this whole shitstorm started because the resident paganigger got triggered by the mere mention of the word "christian" and went apeshit

very interesting discussion fellas but it's time to get back to the important stuff, you think the bengals can steal this game or nah?

you're going to have to post a screenshot before we can ascertain the situation

world feels so barren without pops

that's nowhere near bengal

me i have the exact opposite impression
when i play eu4 — a game without pops — the world feels infinitely populated to me. because i can raise a shitload of a troops and have them die in battle, but 10 years later they're all back
it's even worse with rebels, where you can have em rise up on cooldown and the prosperity of the province doesn't suffer

pops in memegame2 are soulless holographic npcs that defy all laws of physics and are incapable of coherent behaviors, it's only natural a fellow npc would approve of this

emperor Franz Joseph, assumed the position of reis-ul-ulema in 1913 With Austro-Hungarian encouragement, the Bosnian reis-ul-ulema Džemaludin Čaušević issued a similar decree in December 1914. While following the pattern of the Ottoman fatwa, Čaušević’s decree specified that this declaration of jihad legitimated Muslims fighting on behalf of the Habsburg Monarch

my favourite passage in the bible is

>again they came to Jerusalem. As he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders came to him and said, "By what authority are you doing these things? Who gave you this authority to do them?" Jesus said to them, "I will ask you one question; answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. Did the baptism of John come from heaven, or was it of human origin? Answer me." They argued with one another, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?' But shall we say, 'Of human origin'?" - they were afraid of the crowd, for all regarded John as truly a prophet. So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things."

People think Jesus is outsmarting the pharsees or outdebating him but in reality he's just refusing to answer and they know they're right but they can't say it because the crowd of retards will beat them up with sticks.

no, but convincing a 3rd party group standing around with baseball bats to back you up instead of the other guy is outsmarting them
when arguing with someone who you're absolutely certain won't be convinced no matter what your goal switches to convincing the audience you're right

>convincing someone to be your goon threatning to beat up anyone who disagrees with you is the same as outsmarting your opponent in a debate
whitoid doubling down

maito makesu raito, as confucius once said

ah yes, the foundation of christian ethics...

look, the choice is simple: either you convert or we kill you all

unironically yes, might makes right is a foundational christian belief in every sect that subscribes to paul and his epistles, which is easly 99.9% of christians nowadays
>Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
Romans 13:1
You live in a shitalian town and the local mafia boss is shaking you down for money? GOOD. God gave him the authority to do that. Go back to work and better pick up a second and third job to pay him what he's owed you ungreatful little shit.

you're really taking these excerpts out of context
you simply declare those authorities unjust and working against G-d and run your sword through them. it's that simple
but keep in mind that there are much worse authorities than a mafia which provides a protection for their services and does not target civilians in their violence, as evidenced by the current zog

fundamentally, nietzsche was right about christianity
the only true christian was jesus himself, everything afterwards disregards 99% of the ethics and the religion became about wretched people feeling good about their poor material conditions

the bengals didn't win }:<

>for there is NO authority except that which God has established
>uhm actually you just-
>NO authority

youll notice i am linking my game and youre not linking ytours not even a screenshot just kidding thats not myu game just some dude

anyway one time this philipino guy was trying to convince me to join christianity and thats when i realised that in most of the world religion isnt a set of ethics or practices you conciously subscribe to but some kind of tribal identity you swear your alliegence to because he didnt talk about charity or any of that shit he just rambled about jesus loving you and churches being big

yes, there is no authority but the authority that comes from iesus, that is all powers that claim to be authority yet do not come from christos are not actual authority and you don't have to care about them
also i have not read the letters in a huwhile, especially romans so there might have been some clarification further or earlier
as always, context matters

how brown do you have to be to interact with philiphnos

render unto il capo what belongs to il capo

there's plenty of white tourism in the filipines, but it's mostly sex tourism after duerte cracked down on drugs

i would swear allegiance to don corleone, but i would not swear it to tattaglia or barzini

that's just because michael corleone is the main character and you know it

>you simply declare those authorities unjust and working against G-d and run your sword through them.
depends
>yes, there is no authority but the authority that comes from iesus, that is all powers that claim to be authority yet do not come from christos are not actual authority and you don't have to care about them
the roman empire was an example of authority that came from god
since god allowed their reign to flourish, their authority was the fruit of it
if you defy them and they kill you, it's because you were in the wrong and god willed it, silly little anarchist
moral of the story is, whatever happens, god wills it

thank you Lord for willing all this loli hentai into being

Why can't you make eye contact with me anon

>>549323997
Make better posts then you thirdie narcissist

because we're on an imageboard and i can't see your eyes. that's a major fuckin reason

how do you make eye contact with someone on the internet you absolute retard

>>549324181
>>549324143
By using capitalization and linking posts, this isn't discord or irc.

neither capitalization nor post linkage equate to eye contact

>>549324428
It apparently is because you fail to do a normal courtesy unlike everyone else on imageboards these days.

that's not the definition of eye contact you smoothbrained amalekite

>>549324590
Sure it is. Apparently it causes great psychic distress when I do it.

this is /gsg/, the culture here is to not reply and in fact it is deemed poor form if you reply
why can't you accept that not everyone has to be the same uniform kind of boring?

well, that troll got boring to talk to

>>549324739
Because the culture here is poor to begin with. Many of the schizo generals like kerbal, starcraft, and old school runescape do it to simply blog about their lives and make gibberish statements.

then navigate your gay ass back there

well here it begun as a shibboleth for posters who were against the attempts at thread control by a known schizo. the schizo was driven out but the lack of replying stayed
this is how culture is formed. and if you're against it you're free to leave

>>549325274
>>549325297
Why should I?

because you're a whiny bitchboy
or maybe you like being miserable ;)

because apparently you hate the way things are done here and you sure as hell won't be changing it
therefore you have two possible solutions:
1) leave
2) stay and rage impotently

>>549325527
nah, i think he's right, the no replying shtick has gotten old

>>549325468
>>549325527
Just replying causes great harm to you for some reason though, although I have yet to see you discuss anything. Surely this isn't just a gay chatroom?
