umm, how about a real dev diary soon that talks about what is going to come in 2024 ....

Honestly, I wouldn't hate that. India needs more love, and if they can do it well, I'd be interested to see what southern Africa would be like.

I hope whenever India comes it gets atleast 2 DLCs, for love of Shiva you can't do justice for India in just one DLC. it's way too big.

1. North India and Tripartite struggle

2. Kannada Tamil struggle.

A 3rd can be made which is coupled alongside Turko persian empires from Anatolia to India.

A few years ago there was a special 4-part detailed look behind the scenes of CK3 development, complete with IDE and Jira screenshots. They weren't actual DDs because they were incredibly technical (and so your random steam user likely wouldn't care), but they were neat and informative. You could try running another mini-series of those at some point.

I would not be opposed to doing another of these, personally. I'd need to find a suitable topic, but I do like these behind the scenes entries to pull back the curtain a little on how the process of development is, how we do the technical things and what considerations go into it. I might have a topic related to the Chapter III content, which I researched extensively, but need to find the time to turn it into a Anatomy of a Game format And some other bits and bobs I can cook up. Time is something that is a bit of a premium, though

... s2g, some day there will be Agrarian Research Techniques Part 2. I don't know what for, but sheer spite compels me to do it again for something.

I'm still all in favour of that Dev Diary.

If we can put forward requests (for consideration of course) for DD topics, what I’d really like to get is features that were planned or even had some work put into it but never made it and the reason why(too hard/time consuming to implement, wouldn't improve experience but rather make it worse for player etc.) features that each dev himself/herself would like to see in the game, both from a player perspective and developer perspective and whether if there’s a chance of us getting it or not.
For base game itself as well as each dlc
A sort of what could’ve been and what may yet be.

I think you should actually implement some kind of agrarian advancement technology system into the game. Then you can come out with Agrarian Research Techniques Part 2 and play it completely straight against all expectations.

Yeah, I remember those. I like those technical ones from time to time. My software development has all focused around real-time data transmission and control in the oil field . Not fun, but interesting from a technical aspect.

Ooph, landless? That would be a lot of technical work for even the basics, honestly.

There are two wolves inside of me: one, wishes to be direct and helpfully informative, the other, a gleefully rambunctious little imp-goblin.

Do you have any specific region in mind or just a general idea that this system would work good with other places as well?

When I was mentioning it I had primarily Balkans (including Byzantine Empire) in mind and as for the empire question was thinking of the Abbasid Caliphate and Byzantine Empire and perhaps also various states that broke from the Caliphate around 867, say, such as Tulunids starting as vassals and de jure part of the Caliphate's empire but breaking away through war negotiating a seperate empire and then integrating any territorial gains they had much as it works in England currently.

Interesting note! Not really a specific region in mind for me tbh, I'd just like it to be something that can occur dynamically.

Posts like this are better than constant dev diaries. Just feeling the engagement of the developers and actually commenting on this works for me. I just enjoy the engagement and discussion around a game that I love. I don't need a dev diary all the time, if the developers engage in discussions around the game mechanics and the like. Official dev diaries can just be on the "big stuff" if the developers discuss things and engage. At least that is my opinion.

Been a longtime paradox fan and it seems like the "old crew" engaged much more on the forums, but maybe I'm just thinking back to the old days .

Anyway, thanks for commenting on the thread and helping us pass the time to the "big reveal" .

<3

I am sad no landless gameplay . I really want to roleplay a merc leader one day, or maybe a member of a holy order etc... It could be fun. Also the idea of starting as a soldier or minor person and working your way up is pretty enticing to me. Rise to power CK2 mod was pretty awesome.

Furthermore: lmao.

@Trin Tragula you're up.

I'm still all in favour of that Dev Diary.

You are a scholar and a gentleperson.

 

[anbeck]

Why does everyone think we’re getting landless characters?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

LOL you are a legend. If I ever make it to Sweden one day; I'm taking you all out to the best restaurant in the city. Last few times I was in that part of the world, I just did Stavanger in Norway. Unfortunately Sweden doesn't have any oilfield business .

Seriously though, I love the posts leading up the reveal they were fun. I also loved the reveal. Thanks for the game and I look forward to playing.

I mean you guys nailed it. Added some key new systems and the unlanded gameplay is just simply the best of both worlds. I'm assuming the disease system will spice up the world and add to the difficulty along with throwing a wrench in the world. So check the box on new systems to up the difficulty. Than on top of that you gave us even more in depth ways to roleplay.

PS - a few minutes ago I didn't see season 3 yet to buy on steam. Get it ready for purchase. I need to buy 4 copies. My wife, my son and my brother all play together. We are all hooked!

Oh and it also seems with the Legends, you gave me another wish with the world "caring" about what you are and what you did.

Fair cop. I just couldn't see it happening.

Got disease right at least
