PDS is very happy to present not just one, but two, of our eminent devs today!
And from this day on and up until Christmas Eve, we will be dual-wielding and posting two presentations per day
My name is: Niklas Tammpere
My forum nick is: K-vald
At Paradox development studio I work as: QA
So what do I do, really – what does that mean?: Testing games and lurking on the forums.
I have worked on: Crusader Kings 2, Europa Universalis 4, Victoria 2: A House Divided and Heart of Darkness, Hearts of Iron 3, *secret project* and *secret project*.
Right now I´m working on: EU4, CK2 and *secret project*.
My best game ever and why I like it: Counter-Strike, because it can be both tactical and casual, slow or fast paced with very good balancing work both weapon and level wise. It has eSport support and the gameplay doesn't get old.
My hobbies include: Playing games, playing the guitar, riding my snowboard, playing pen & paper RPGs and going to festivals and concerts.
What I do when going on a holiday abroad: I prefer to visit historical sites and check out ruins/monuments/other kind of constructions and freshen up my knowledge about history.
Little known fact about a Paradox Development Studio game: Some characters in the unit packs have their faces based upon real people.
My biggest rival at the office is: Rufo.
My best moment at Paradox Development Studio: When I betrayed Rufo in the office multiplayer game while sitting next to him, and he asked "what are you doing?” and I turned my head slowly and answered "betraying you".
