The spirit summoned itself unprompted? Wait, that's illegal!

Regardless, the council appreciates the gesture, looking forward to it!

May I ask if the plans for All under Heaven DD's beginning in May are still on schedule?

So far so good, yes, but likely going to be the back half of May.

Appreciate the directness!

But if the rumors are true, then early May will be dedicated to the EU5 announcement and probably some major content drops from YouTubers, who currently are at Tinto. So you just might get away with late May here!

We will probably also get some DDs about Coronations event pack in may.

I think it's less likely. Event packs are small in scale and their DDs usually precede the release by mere weeks. For example, Wandering Nobles got 3 dedicated DDs, while one was about the free update.

Since the release window is set for Q3 (July - Sept), and with July being summer season, I'd expect some late August/early September release. That narrows down the time window for the few DDs it will get.

I think we'll get DDs for AuH until the summer break, then a two months pause, DDs for Coronations, and then intense marketing with substantial DDs leading up to a what, mid-November release? That would be my guess.

The nice part with the content dropping from almost May on, is that we Will be getting lots of news for the rest of the years

Vic 3 is about to drop 4 DLC in 6 months, Stellaris 3 Big DLC in 7 and CK3 3 DLC in ~9 (2 being Major expansions)

So starting with Khans of the Steppe we are eating really good boys

I am thinking that Coronations might release together with the post-launch update of KotS and late june / early july isn't that strange. I believe previous paradox DLC released around that period too?

No, mid-June to mid-July (if not late July) is summer break in Sweden. You won't get anything that isn't pre-scheduled to release before that (like the documentaries from last year).

The earliest you can get is mid to late August I think, if we assume they don't let a finished product sit on a shelf during summer break, just to release it the moment they're back.

Today’s stream.
I watched the stream. I like how each of the three religions that claim spiritual descent from Abraham are trying to convert you via events, but my problem is with the Samaritan conversion attempt. Since Samaritans didn’t spread like Jews did, there is no reason why a Jewish character who is not from the Middle East has the Samaritan faith. There needs to be some region locks on which Jewish faiths can appear on generated Jewish characters.

Yeah, the Samaritans absolutely should not be proselytizing.

It’s also weird that this is happening in 1066. Correct me if I’m wrong, but the Khazars were the only major Jewish group on the steppe, and they were basically irrelevant by then.

I imagine that event alone will end up making the religious map of the steppe quite messy.

Not only not proselytizing. They shouldn't be on the steppe at all. Whenever the game generates a Jewish character, it gives them a random Jewish faith. Samaritans should only be of middle eastern Jewish culture and not appear outside the middle east.

Confirmed you're not an Instagram user, at least. We posted this teaser there since embedding YouTube videos isn't feasible on that plaform.
