Johan has stated in the past that he doesn't see ancient Rome as a good setting for a new Paradox game. Can you elaborate on this -- what are specific reasons for this?

What are the upcoming patches/DLC plans for EU4 and CK2?

Lastly, are you going to fix EU4 ironman mode? There's several threads reporting increasing lag with autosaves as the game goes on.
 
Are there any plans for DLC(s) for MotE? Many MotE fans are still waiting for it/them

When will PDS announce the next PDS game?

Which will we see first, HOI4, VIC3, Rome2 or new series?
 
Johan has said: ""We don't do marxistic historical games, where its mandatory that some countries will always fail."
Will this always be the reality? Why not add a "Historical" game-mode, which it's not mandatory, but increadibly high % that they will fail & fall.
Vicky 1 with VIP is a good example of a game that acts very historical but still has choices to go outside of history and still having events for it.

It's almost like doing a niche within a niche. Which doesn't exactly a big audience.

Thanks PDS and Shams for the stream!

It's nice to hear direct thoughts of the devs, also appreciated the information given about the EUIV patch and coming DLC's. Surprised to hear them coming already next week!

I love playing ironman so I was given a reality check when the devs stated that only 15% of gamers play with it. Your statistics MUST be biased somehow (See, I am already going into denial)

And please, no Zombies. One aprils fool joke was horrifying enough! The older you get the more this horror stuff frightens you.

And a question:
There was 2 DLC's announced for EU4
1) American Dream

What was the other??

And Linda: You are a beaut

Go into steam and EUIV -> view all achievements -> global gameplay stats -> note that 17% of people have ever made a royal marriage, won a war, or conquered a province (which translates to done in ironman, because achievements are not recorded otherwise (certain workarounds notwithstanding)).

Watching achievements for other games, there will be about 10-20 who never actually play the game, and that 17% should also rise over time (I want to be more familiar with the game before playing ironman) but yes, some interesting things can be dug up through steam stats.
 
I'm playing ironman and love it, but once Meiou and taxes mod is released, sadly I'll have to stop playing ironman. I seriously wish they made it a normal option that can be selected with mods.

Is anyone working on list of most important things that were told during stream? I've hardly enough patientce to watch all these 4h...

It is "only" 2h, after that time the video starts over again. They somehow managed to add the whole video once again, so the second half is a repetition of the first half.
