Played it over a year ago and got absolutely rammed in every department so I want some pointers on how for my next run, namely:How to go full dictator.How to deal with the old guard fuckheads and oligarchs.How to not shit the bed with the economy.How to shit on Lespia the most.And optionally avoid the Rumburg war and join the communists to further piss on Lespia if possible.
>>2142607>How to go full dictator.By "full" I assume you want to give yourself MoH and privatize everything in which case you need both oligarchs, nationalists, bluds and the libs. Oligarchs can be won over by giving them contract. I don't think tax cut is necessary. Also troll koronelli by saying you will nationalize and then back off.Nationalists will always support you afaik To win bluds don't pass racist bills and pick the lib option in prologue. Maybe also invest in bergia idkLibs will always support you if you promise a cabinet position Also spend 5 money on campaigning and you should win by 10 votes>How to deal with the old guard fuckheads and oligarchs.Old guard becomes irrelevant after passing dictator constitution and removing them from court. Oligarchs can be put to jail when you nationalize everything and targeted when you form SSP. >How to not shit the bed with the economy.Idk just aim for synergies if you're allied with commies build a naval port etc it should be intuitive. Economy doesn't really matter if you're not going for 1v1 Rumburg on mass mob in which case you need everything to be green. I failed that cuz I was too racist and couldn't get bergia to green so don't be racist and you're economy will be better
>>2142607>How to shit on Lespia the most.They don't have much content but I guess allying with valgsland and winning rumburg war will give commies the most advantage >And optionally avoid the Rumburg war 1. Fuck them in the UN (hard)2. Be peaceful and pay reparations (easy)3. Join an alliance (very easy)
>>2142622I once read here that there is a path you can take to get empowered by the old guard and then fuck them over so I assumed that was the dictator path. Also working with the oligarchs and then nationalizing them is possible right? Also on those choices you mentioned like promising a cabinet position, I can go back on the deal and stuff like that?
>>2142651>get empowered by the old guard and then fuck them overIt's possible and it's more brutal than the normal dictator path. You need to first work with the Old Guard and start the state of emergency but then turn against them and and ally the Young Sords and have them murder Hawker. The rest of the Old Guard will be too scared to do anything after that. I think you also need to have the secret police and use them against the Old Guards. The Oligarchs you can just arrest when you nationalise their companies.
*hits pipe*
>>2142751These guys have a knack for making me hate women.
>>2142764at least she's way easier to gaslight than bitch Monica, I had no problem getting her to agree to marry Axel. And apparently you can even make her fall for Rico through a specific series of events if you're terrible at hunting and injure his dog
>>2142607in my opinion the devs should have clarified things more. the base game is too opaque when it comes to managing resources, especially for a """political simulation game""" where budgeting and economics are central to making good decisions and stuff. theres no clear display of your total national budge or annual revenue, or how close you are to going into a deficit. I heard they fixed some of those with the rizzia dlc?
I regret ever trying to accomodate and work with all parties to democratize Sordland further.I cut a check to that worm Ricter to guarantee his support, only to see his party being spared by the ensuing media shitstorm.I tried so hard to love Monica and support her, but she just wouldn't relent on trying to usurp my presidency and make it about women's rights.I banned both youth factions because of the daily killings and I was slapped in the face with accusations of authoritarianism.I did my best to appease Bludia only to narrowly escape assassination.I reinforced the army with Lancea only to be betrayed by the wicked bitch in my cabinet, and die with him during the siege of Holsord.It was a great experience. Many thanks to the german government for thoroughly smashing my delusional views about democracy, and to Gus Manger for doing his job right without a fuss.
>>2142860I should try playing democrat for once. I played like 50 times but I always went dictator since other option sucked
>>2142860>ensuing media shitstormyou've gotta censor the media if you're gonna bribe people>I tried so hard to love Monica and support her, but she just wouldn't relentyeah you just need to gaslight her the entire way and then at the end say "oh darn we couldn't get your retarded bill to pass oh well sorry honey" and she's okay with it>I did my best to appease Bludia only to narrowly escape assassinationdid you pass any of the dumb NFP bills? I assimilation-maxxed and mainly did agricultural economy focus on Bergia and the Bluds loved me despite having never supported any of their separatist bullshit>I reinforced the army with Lancea only to be betrayed by the wicked bitch in my cabinetwait which wicked bitch, and how did they betray you?
The abrupt way of winning the war makes a lot more sense when you realize it's all in Rayne's head while he's knocked out in a cocaine-fueled coping session.
There should be a DLC where you play as some warlord in notAfrica. Even doing the most basic Rizian government function would feel like a revolutionary act while having access to flexible political and ethnic decisions.
>fullfil all of my campaign promises>the recession is ending>develop the land>oppress bluds>deal with the east as promised>change the constitution >champion worker's rights>defend the faith>stop a pandemic>start investing in healthcare >20% of the people support me>Lucian argues it is barely salvageableI hate democracy. This whole fucking region is cursed with retarded people if that retard van Pooper can get reelected after fumbling away the region's only ally for nothing.
>>2143686 It's not your fault, Rizia is just bugged. In my first run I did everything perfect and got a coup off screen because I didn't let the guy uncork the wine.
>>2143686you still really fucked up somehow if you're at 20% approval, is there mass unrest?>if that retard van Pooper can get reelectedyeah he's by far the most retarded of all the leaders, completely misunderstands the terrible situation his country is in and how desperately he needs allies. I hate him and have never been able to bring myself to side with him in any of my playthroughs>>2143947he's talking about Sordland. also are you talking about the house toras wine event or what?
>>2142751Ugly pugface
>>2144069>you still really fucked up somehow if you're at 20% approvalI don't know how. Economy was improving, I passed the dictator constitution, supported worker's rights bills while placating conservatives and so on until everything went tits up for no apparent reason. Also, as it turns out, CSP membership means jack shit and Rumburg invades anyway. And since I didn't have any allies besides Vargs and didn't invest in the army I lost regardless. CSP as a whole didn't help in any way other than hurting my trade. Furthering my theory that Smolak is the only competent and trustworthy guy in the whole region.
>>2144268Are you sure you allied with CSP and not just Valgsland? It shouldn't be possible for them to invade if you're in a faction. Anyway it's really easy to avoid war just by being peaceful and not allying with your neighbours.
Rizia seems alot easier compared to sordland, my first rizia run i managed to reunite lost lands without war and get a pretty stable economy despite flip-flopping on a lot of issues, and i went in completely blind.
>>2144295>my first rizia run i managed to reunite lost lands without war and get a pretty stable economy despite flip-flopping on a lot of issues, and i went in completely blind.That's the easiest path. The problem is that you get couped at the end
>>2142607flip off the judges, apply tough love to tycoons, give everything to serge, have friends among the secret police and the nationalists, don't investigate yourself for corruption if you're corrupt, and most importantlyORDER THE FUCKING SALADand join nato, this isn't yugoslavia
>>2144332>and join natoI'll rather ally with Rumburg. In NATO You literally get cucked
>>2144339you can tell the prez to fuck off and he actually does
>>2144341>Implying he won't do it behind your back
>>2144345>implying he wouldn't get kennedy'd
>>2144346>Implying you wouldn't get euromaidan'd the moment he grows tired of shagging your wifehttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/-EZXgLW-VII
>>2144368you don't euromaidan your allies anon, not with blocs like grace or csp in very close proximityit's not anybody's fault your rayne was a cuck
>>2144424ATO doesn't have allies, only puppets. US literally sided with USSR against their NATO allies during suez crisis because it didn't like them having sovereignity and influence
>>2144457>ATO doesn't have allies, only puppetsthat would be the warsaw pact, NATO allies bicker all the time
>>2144298I was not couped thoughever
How do Rizian war stages work? If I lose phase 1 do I get a different phase 2 and vice versa? I might have to rewind a couple of turns since only four action points is killing me.
>>2142607Not a /vst/ game
>How to go full dictator.>How to deal with the old guard fuckheads and oligarchs.Both have the same answer: if you can't beat them, join them.Give the Old Guard some scraps (let Soll live in peace, crack down on commies and Bluds) and placate the oligarchs with favorable contracts and policies (but don't make yourself indebted to any of them). You don't really have to give a shit about the constitutional reform, because ultimately it serves you just fine to leave it the way it is.>How to not shit the bed with the economy.Just follow the Keynesian playbook. Deficit spending, up to a point (-7 seems to be the breaking point), and pick the right policies for short-term economic growth. I have always gotten positive results with the train project to Laclaven and the agricultural zone (which also pacifies the Bluds because they get jobs). And do everything you can to butter up to Arcasia, since they will give you trade deals and military support in the end.I tried my hardest to piss off the Bluds to start a civil war, but they didn't even try to assassinate me in this run. Smoked cigars with Soll and Hawker as we laughed about fucking over liberals. Easily reelected and kept the Rayne Train going for another four years.
Is there a full world map? The one in the game is very nice looking but I want to look at the scale of how irrelevant Sordland and Rizia's shitflinging is.
>>2145053what happens on that continent on the right?
>>2145053
>>2142751>in her early 20s>looks like she's in her late 30sRumburgian genetics...
>I solve every problem and avoid every pitfall>Become an Extreme CentristAnd all I had to do was sacrifice my best friend! I really wish we could play for at least one more term
>>2145134I imagine post Victory would be a lot less painful(and fun) since reparations may give you some money to work with and not have to tard-wrangle retards nowhere near as much. New areas would also improve the economy and dear God does Sordland need it. Comparing it to Rizia feels like comparing Moldavia and China. Rizia can pop a dam, several military industries, consumer industries and a port expansion while Sordland struggles to build a shitty highway. And noble houses are a lot less retarded and pushy, Vina excluded.
>>2143223>you've gotta censor the mediaThis one is on me, but I was more upset that the PFJP seemingly got away with taking a bribe while I got raked through the coals. Sordland has 2.5 parties, who the hell are you going to vote for if both are involved in the same "scandal"?>you just need to gaslight herDamn it was that easy>did you pass any of the dumb NFP billsNot that I recall, but I think I half-assed assmiliation, or that my speech wasn't neutral enough.>the wicked bitchLileas Graf from the interior. Against my better judgement (and my nigga Iosef's advice, sorry bud) and she immediately resigned to announce her bid for the USP primaries. I think this doomed my war against Rumburg too, so I hope it was worth it you whore.At least I wasn't caught being a terrible politician in real life. I'll get it right next run, after I finish Rizia.
>>2145230*against my better judgement, I transferred the gendarmerie to her and the interior ministry.
>>2144281>Anyway it's really easy to avoid war just by being peaceful and not allying with your neighboursAt least in the current version you still need to pay R*mb*rg reparations for them not to invade you even if you take all the peaceful response options, which is just so cringe I can never bring myself to do it, also tanks your approval. Best (and as someone else mentioned, most technically difficult as far as choosing all the right options) way to avoid war without an alliance is to get the AN to sanction Rumburg>>2144298Who did you get couped by? I also reunited all lands without war and was never in coup danger, I even deposed Rico at my university speech and House Toras was still cool with me. Azaro loved me because I married Lucita and Sazon was too weak and disorganized to do anything to me.>>2145405If anything that makes Lileas like you more and less likely to primary you, and Iosef more likely to coup you. So you must have really pissed her/the conservatives off in other ways. Also don't believe it has any effect on Rumburg war.
>>2145695>At least in the current version you still need to pay R*mb*rg reparations for them not to invade you even if you take all the peaceful response options, which is just so cringe I can never bring myself to do itIdk I'm a contrarian and I saw how hard devs were trying to make me hate Rumburg so I allied with them out of spite and because they're the most based block in the universe. At the end you basically make them energy dependant on you so from RP perspective it's be very lucrative and offsets any costs reparations might had. >Best (and as someone else mentioned, most technically difficult as far as choosing all the right options) way to avoid war without an alliance is to get the AN to sanction RumburgYou also need to get superpowers to sanction them. I've read that you had to be neutral for that but I did it with lespia and angola alliance. >Who did you get couped by?Either Rico or noname revolution. At the release there was a bug that made you get a coup ending regardless of what you did but now it's fixed but Rizia is still crap. >Also don't believe it has any effect on Rumburg war.Nah it has really huge impact on Rumburg war
>>2145932>You also need to get superpowers to sanction them. I've read that you had to be neutral for that but I did it with lespia and angola allianceYeah I did it with valgs alliance, you just need to act relatively neutral/respecting international norms and sucking the AN's dick at the big AN meeting, as well as in the kyrute interview.>Nah it has really huge impact on Rumburg wardamn nvm you're right never knew that, though looks like you can potentially make up for it in a few different ways like full Wehlen alliance
>the ending scene in the carriage after you win the war>never forget... who is your SUZERAIN
>>2145932>because they're the most based block in the universeWehlen is the most based and also the most hated by the devs thoughbeit
Why don't the devs give you a choice between allowing Beatrice to go back to her kingdom as our pawn or keeping her in a rape-dungeon? She literally keeps us in a hidden prison if we surrender to her...
Is it weird if I've never played as Dictator? It just feels wrong. Not even from a moral or political perspective, I literally support the idea of monarchy.But it just...feels wrong, for the game? I just can't help but end up playing the exact same build: Traditionalist centrist reformer Anton who wants to fix the economy, beat the shit out of Rumburg and stay neutral.Anything else feels wrong. I don't even like to stop using the Economy Degree even though it's literally fucking garbage that does NOTHING
>>2143326What kind of retarded compass is thisWhy the fuck would you even make this a compass if every axis just means "Supports"
>>2146021wehlen is the safe edgy reddit favorite thoughbeit
>>2146049>Is it weird if I've never played as Dictator? It just feels wrongYes? Dictator is the only path where you actually get to "win". It doesn't make sense to go through all the effort of reforming constitution just to lose more power.
>>2146057So which country is 4chan edgy?
>>2146072NFP chud dictator Rayne-led Sordland
>>2146034Because she's an old, dried up grape.She wouldn't have left that surrender carriage unscathed if Anton felt her remotely attractive.
>>2145124IIRC it's notAfrica, heavy CPS influence especially since much of the north was directly part of the Valgish empire back in the daythere is some ATO/CPS fighting, I think Nibiya has the ATO overthrow its commie government if you cause the trade war blow up
>>2142751
>>2146072Rumburg.
When will this game get some good rule 34? Been years and still nothing...
>>2146606>Rayne-ledKibener presidency is more based cuz he introduces segregation
>>2147195forgot Kibener can win in one of the epilogues, I assume if you're an ineffective libtard
>>2147130forget rule 34, the devs need to add way more romance options in general. why is there no way for rizzler Romus to fugg shortstack dommy mommy AOC?
>>2147249>>2147130Everyone in this game is fucking ugly what do you mean
>>2147255t. dumped by monica and cucked by walker
>>2147255That Rumburg spy and Lucita both have big tits, both of them aren't bad to look at face-wise, and both mix sex with their working relationships. So the lack of rule 34 of them is mind-boggling to me.
>>2147245>I assume if you're an ineffective libtardNah if you're a based dictator and get ousted for killing Soll you can join NFP and become his VP
My first run. Democratic. Got reelected with huge support. Bluds loved me and I integrated Bergia. Won the war with my allies Lespia and Agnolia. Got Lileas arrested but left Hawker in place since I respected judicial immunity, and left Soll untouched since I kept him MoH position and besides that always respected him for bringing the Republic out of the civil war (I had been a Young Sord, then served loyally under Soll until he stepped down)My only instances of "corruption" were initially agreeing to work with Marcel (didn't give him the shares, though) and getting Franc into university. Lucian always stayed by my side (even when I made Gloria VP) and Petr stepped down of his own volition, after I tried taking the blame for the spy. Monica didn't divorce me and we ended with a happy marriage (although I veto'd the women's bill for cost reasons after letting her form the commission)I oversaw the great Sordish recovery and overall did a great job as an enlightened centrist. I owe it all to my good friend and old professor, Deivid. Good game although some elements really bug me and it can be pretty clear sometimes where the devs stand on things based upon how they weigh certain elements. (For instance, looking it up, it seems like having a stricter immigration policy is only a negative which I completely disagree with in real life)Also annoyed with some elements which I felt weren't utilized much. I read some of the history codices and it seemed like the daughter of the previous king could have come into play politically. Maybe it depends upon what you do but she was never mentioned. Where's my monarchy restoration run?
>>2147795>for instance, looking it up, it seems like having a stricter immigration policy is only a negative which I completely disagree with in real lifeI wonder why a bunch of Turks in Germany would want a loose immigration policy?Bluds are also Kurds which is why the game lets you fuck them over without moralising lmao
>>2147795>I veto'd the women's bill for cost reasonsthe fact that it costs as much as it does is really funny, like what even would be the upfront government budget costs of a women's rights bill. the game actively wants you to split up with your bitch wife at every turn>For instance, looking it up, it seems like having a stricter immigration policy is only a negative which I completely disagree with in real lifeyeah it's retarded, uncontrolled borders with refugee waves during a mass unemployment recession helps the economy hurrrr
>>2147951Explains why they made the Bludish religion the gay one lolTurks projecting
>>2147795similar in the rizia DLC, 'heterogeneous society' gives you a green modifier'moderately homogeneous society' is a yellow one
>>2148380Are there any mods for this game to change a few things like that?
>>2142607Can I play as the biggest scummy most corrupt piece of shit imaginable? Is that a viable strategy?I want to be caught in sex scandals, getting money under the table, tempering with the media, taking bribes from everyone, fleeing from crowds, just ouright being the biggest piece of shit imaginable and getting away with it. I want Sordland to serve as nothing but a way for me to make mad cash, and my only regret to be that I didn't get to sell off more of the country before they put me down.I am playing through the game for the first time and everything bores me except the chances to get money and favors. I am also flirting with the secretary.
>>2149335Also, can I cheat on my wife with the bitch minister of education? For good measure, I want to cheat on her with every single female in the game, including and especially the old minister of the interior, just so she knows that she is replaceable. Why does the game even force me to be married, I wanted to JFK maxxx.About the minister of education,I don't want to hear about schools for hill billies being shit, she just reminds me of that one college gf I had who acted like a total political stick in the mud for foreplay whenever she wanted to tease me into a dicking our differences down.I also deeply do not care at all for the people of sordland, Alphonse did nothing wrong.
>>2148380>>2147795>>2147951What? Accepting in rapefugees by the millions will help with the economic situation?
>>2149355Yes, Agnolia wouldn't accept a good deal if you don't accept refugees or build a shitty railway
>>2149335>Is that a viable strategy?I think it's literally required for most of the good outcomes. I think it's a must-have if you want to pass constitution without conservative support and do based things like privatizing everything and giving yourself moh. There's literally zero reasons not to do corruption except RP reasons. The only downside is that Lucian will betray you if Lileas challenges you and you can executed if you form ACP and target oligarchs
>>2149364highway*, which is way worse than the high speed railway economically speaking
>>2149364The Agnolians are closely related to the Sords though, so it's unlikely that they'll cause much trouble.
>>2149335Yes, you can buddy up with the oligarchs and they will give you personal wealth that you can use to buy your own vineyard, invest in companies that you plan on giving contracts to, and even your own football club.You can also decide to fuck off to Island Switzerland with all of your money if you realize that you are going to lose the election.Just don't be a fucking retard and create the Anti-Corruption Police if you are being a corrupt cunt.>I am also flirting with the secretary.Boy are you in for a treat later on.
>>2149444>>2149370>>2149444Good. Turns out playing like a complete corrupt scoundrel Jabba The Hutt emperor of Sordland is not only viable, it is the META strategy.I am beating the game, bros. Also, I'm definitely impregnating that secretary so I can have a Bill Clinton'esque sex scandal, then abandon her and her child and my annoying family so I can fuck off to Island Switzerland and do coke and hookers until I overdose. If this is not an option, I'll be mad. They made her too cute.>>2149355>>2149439The game is pointlessly liberal about how immigrants are good. In real life, empoverished immigrants would increase unemployment numbers, reduce wages and make jobs harder to come by. They are only good if you have zero trust in your population and think penniless refugees can do better.
Man, I'm loving the game so much. I gotta say, the reformer party dude is my nigga. I also like Marcel and Petr.Running a country must be so awesome. You get to try and stumble through all sorts of nonsense with your friends while syphoning in mad cash.
I lost the reform in the boomer Supreme Court.Hopefully there is a way to turn this aroud.
>>2149576eat the fugging salad
>>2149576>he didn't eat the salad
>>2149800>>2149866I thought eating the salad would make me look like a cuck. Why would the supreme court judge side with me just because I ordered a salad.I was very pushy in that meeting, but it was necessary. She turned me off.
What the fuck, the military
i LOST THE GAME, BROS. The military and the supreme court boomers couped me. My own secretary of defense betrayed me.
>>2149914>Why would the supreme court judge side with me just because I ordered a saladshe wouldn't, but it counts because you're mirroring herit's a psychology thing, and also free in terms of opportunity cost
>>2149950Did you not fund the military? They tend to be cool so long as you give them money to spend.

>>2150037Ok, I am not investigating my father's death. Hopefully this won't be a problem.
>>2150042Does marrying her off to Manus make Sazons happy so they don't revolt? You can keep the Toras in check with some investments and being nice to the vezier.

>>2150830I wonder why no right wingers have made their own suzerain type game, doesn't seem like it would require much money.
My first playthrough was fantastic, I really got immersed into the game's world and into the mind of my character, each decision felt like it had real weight and could take the game anywhere.After the game ended I started over, retracing the same path but with more focus on specific goals, and I wasn't going to re-read everything again so it felt more like clicking buttons to play a videogame than anything. Eventually I realized all the big events are inevitable and always the same, the game is largely on rails and only a few big choices truly matter and the game is not as expansive and reactive as I wished, but that's to be expected from these kinds of games and it was a good illusion the first time around.
Can I join ATO as Rizia?
>>2149997Titus is the ultimate bro, like Karl in Sordland and you should expand his guard.Lespians are jews of the continent and should be fucked over at every opportunity. They will do the same to you.
>>2149914>Why would the supreme court judge side with me just because I ordered a saladit's just one of the things you can do in that conversation to make her trust you. More important is to remember that she is a conservative and wants respect for separation of powers and rule of law, so don't act like a complete libtard who wants to throw the old constitution in the toilet>>2150042that being the only sequence of events where she willingly marries Rico is newgrounds puzzle flash game tier obtuse>>2150603such a kino track, I thought the commie bitch had straight up poisoned me when it came on>>2151254yes at the very end, if you have good relations with Lespia, have been kicked out of GRACE, and also try to go reformist but the reform fails. All those things combined must make it a pretty rare ending, I've never tried to go for it
>commie-aligned state leaders are all lovable epic chungus badasses who will deal with you reasonably>capitalist state leaders are abrasive bumbling idiots at best or just straight up evil, leader of not-america cucks you if you join ATOCurious!

I wanted to escape the country, but instead I got them into a depression, sold off the country, declared war on Rumburg, then had the capital nuked with me inside. You will own nothing, and you will be happy.
>>2150603This scared the hell out of me. I thought I was going to die because some commie university liberal put too much of her herb inside the cookie.>>2151251There are deep dialogue choices, though. I managed to get an entire section of the game by simply eating a salad. Or funding the military.
>>2145053damn these names are bad
>>2151749Half of Tolkien's names are lame once properly translated.>GondorStoningland>MordorBlackland>ArnorLand of the King>RiddermarkRider's March
>>2151755That's how place names work in real life. Try looking up any place name that's not in modern English and it's going to be stuff like "long river" or "tree-hill" etc. Most fantasy authors just come up with nice-sounding names without regard to how the names developed over time. Tolkien autistically thought it all through.
>>2151605>dragged Mr. Revolution to the paredón and ordered his shooting personallythat's cool, a lot of people get bolshevik'd by him in their fail playthroughs. in my crown empowerment game I somehow kept things together enough that I never met the guy and Sazon kid stayed as opposition leader the whole time.
>Be a libshit and sign everything Manus asks >Bring in millions of rapefugees to vote for you>People still elect conservatives despite manus crying about le peoplerinos wanting democracy Lol, does that ruin my reformist run?
>You can use Arcasian PMC's to murder commies and nobles I wish sordshit democrat run was that based
>>2152672>bending over to ATO and Lespia>as a monarchy>as Rizia specifically >based
Alright I fucked up by going radical and being too successful so I got regular lib ending. >This is obviously a very risky move, which might have a hand in your undoing: in fact, we never were able to go for it without being deposed, although other factors certainly played their role in such cases. However, we suspect that a properly executed power grab and reform with Manus Sazon might just be the solution to guaranteeing you being the first openly gay king without further repercussions. Please leave us a comment if you can attest to this, so that we may update this portion of the guide.I can attest that yea in fact you can stay a gay lord by doing a radical coup. I also removed state religion without much fuss. I failed to dissolve intermerkopum because of fucking pales staying no matter how much I insult them since he's married to me. I also noticed that Arcasia only offers aid if you ally with commie faggot instead of Rusty for some reason. Next time I'll try to fail a moderate reform to see if I can join ATO
>>2152771Trying to turn your country into a cyberpunk shithole led by an open faggot who destroyed everything holy and uses foreign mercenaries to slaughter his people is in fact based. I might be the first to get this ending since it's so obscure
>>2151749what's so bad about them?
>>2152782The only ending for Rizzia that I got was the one where I thrusted my people into abject poverty, cucked their revolution, shot their leader while all watched, then told my bitch daughter to fuck off and named my son the next heir.Rizia after my reign was poorer than Haiti and stuck in an energy and financial depression, but bowed to their rightful leader.>>2152782I usually try to get rid of the gay butler.
>>2152782>cyberpunk shithole led by an open faggot who destroyed everything holyThe Canada ending.
>>2152815Canada is South Africa not South Korea.
>>2152818Rhodesia even.
>>2152812That's the regular ending you usually get. Since I'm replaying I try to go for something obscure. I feel like rizia falls into earn your bad ending (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EarnYourBadEnding) trope since everything is fine and will be fine if you don't fuck it up and try to do something retarded like introducing liberalism or going to war
>>2152783I'm not ready to explain it at this time.
>>2152773>fucking pales staying no matter how much I insult them since he's married to meyou mean married to Vina right, no way there's a hidden gay Axel route lmao. also his quip about not swinging that way is a great line when you propose the Vina marriage>>2152830>everything is fine and will be fine if you don't fuck it up and try to do something retardedyeah pretty much, especially since war is something you pretty much have to actively opt into. as opposed to Sordland where you have to actively try to avoid the looming invasion. In fact, is there any way to end up in a conflict by accident in Rizia?
>>2142607I will never get over how this game feels like a direct rip off of rogue state except they directly made it into a visual novel.
>>2152949>In fact, is there any way to end up in a conflict by accident in Rizia?If you buy the gas field you get falseflagged and it can turn into war I think
>>2153267buying the gas field is so fucking expensive after the most recent patch, wonder if it's even worth it in the first place
>>2153917Buying the gas field should be an impeachable crime. Lespia and Pales deserve to be destroyed. What is the point of being a king if you just surrender the needs of your people?
Bruh I didn't know Lespia could steal your shares if you agreed to their demands and didn't negotiate with morella. I can say no and valgsland will side with me but I'm gonna say yes because it's too funny since they're friendly with me and I did everything I could to appease me yet they still try to fuck me over
This game is so fucking retarded and buggy. It's clearly not coded correctly and you can fuck up for any reason and no reason at all because nothing in this game makes sense. I ordered to suppress protestors instead of giving them gibs and was railroaded into supporting commies and the event to ask arcasians to kill him never popped up. Also it seems that no matter what you do you will be a shithole with high poverty and revolutionaries will rise up
>>2151486>yes at the very end, if you have good relations with Lespia, have been kicked out of GRACE, and also try to go reformist but the reform fails. All those things combined must make it a pretty rare ending, I've never tried to go for itAlright I got the ending where Lespia supports me but I don't think that's what you were referring to. The game says that it's a stalemate but considering that in my run Lespia conquered rumburg it should've been a total ato w. I think I'll have to go through game files to see if there's anything about joining ATO.>which will have Lespia come into the Azaro's aid and, in an attempt to counteract ATO's efforts on your country, Valgsland coming to yours.Once again wiki is wrong
>[\"RiziaDLCSupport.Report_Turn10_NewGov_Epic_ApplyATO\"]>[\"RiziaDLCSupport.Report_Turn10_NewGov_Epic_ApplyCSP\"]So apparently you can join ato and csp. Still no clue how to get it though
>>2154445MONBOL ROMUSMONBOL ROMUS
>'Beatrice Livingston (R): ""Little did I know my brother-in-law would enthusiastically participate in his own cuckolding."'>RiziaDLC.Trait_FunnyKing == true && RiziaDLC.Prologue_Monqiz_PartyPrince == true>'Player_Romus: ""Come on, Bea. If you don''t think Romus Toras is enthusiastic about cuckolding, then you don''t know me at all."'So apparently you can be a big fucking cuck.
>>2154767She said this to me when I married her to samuns and was kicked out for being too liberal
>>2150148It's been a while, but in my run I let her marry the useless twat and also released their matriarch, and they stayed loyal. Marrying Lucina kept her family happy and my own family I did fuckall for, but they still didn't revolt. The best Sordland ending is you and Josef in the bunker, btw.
>>2152035I was on track for a fail playthrough, but I ordered his bitch ass assassinated and somehow got away with it scot-free. The achievement was like .09% of people completed or something. No idea how I pulled it off.
>>2154794what does marrying vina to manus have to do with cuckolding... is beatrice *hits pipe* pilled?>>2155105>my own family I did fuckall for, but they still didn't revoltI really do wonder how badly you need to fuck up to get Toras to coup you, I think you need to be a dick personally to Hugo to get them to do it, and do awfully at the Toras wine event.>The best Sordland ending is you and Josef in the bunker, btwit was my first playthrough ending and therefore the true ending. i should've listened to Iosef...
>>2155174>I really do wonder how badly you need to fuck up to get Toras to coup youOn release they would always coup you if you didn't depose rico. I did literally everything to appease them and even married vina to rico and still got coupd. I guess now they "fixed"' it so that they almost never coup you. In my recent run they've even accepted radical commie constitution
>>2142773>blow a dogs leg off with an ak>sweetie, marry this dogs owneryay :D
Aight I applied for ato but it had no content except the fact that there were ato guys with the an in the ending. All I had to do was keep status quo so the previous poster was fucking lying.
>>2142607That's a lot of empires in such a small area. Do Germanoids really?
>>2142751ENOUGH
>>2142751Vina, you're going to Democratic Zanza to be a cultural ambassador.
>>2164219>After you scrub all the floors in Porte Drazon, then we can talk about mercy!should have been able to say that to Rico after you depose the little shit
