Why all the negativity?
Paradox interactive is a great studio.
Some of their games, certainly not all, have lots of DLC. But games like EU4 got support and new content for over 10 years. And when I look at their newer releases like CK3 or Victoria3. The amount of DLC isnt that big. These games are perfect fit for paradox.

Why does Tuxedo choose for an Intel CPU?
Isnt AMD way more energie efficiënt and better integrated graphics and longer batery life?
And the hardware getting less hot?

Beside that this looks like an very interesting, but expansive device.

Quoting: LamdarerUnfortunately kinda expected, all material so far about the game was only mediocre at best, but I had hopes to be honest. The concept is known to work, ppl want such a game, even more so with tons of (actually good ) DLC and even more important (Good)Mod support. Paradox could have offered it. Kinda sad to see they canceled it, it cant be so difficult to make a okey-ish game like that, mod support and future development over 1-2 years could have made it a Sims killer(potentially). I would have bought it.

Really irritating that they killed it, but a delay at best was inevitable at this point.

Now I have even more fear that Europa Universalis V might fail miserably, EU4s legacy is just too great to easily beat within the next 5years.:unsure:

Have you seen the tinto talks for project Caesar (eu5)? The community is very exited with what they have shown so far. I have 3k hours in eu4. And I like very much what i see for eu5.

There is a big reason why paradox is delaying victoria 3: Sphere of Influence.
Since the launch of victoria3 the fans aren't happy with the game.
The amount of players is kind of low for paradox and stagnant at best.
With all the updates victoria3 got since the launch, the most issues haven't been fixed.
If they release this expansion in a bad shape, its done with the game.

Europa Universalis IV: Winds of Change will probably be the last expansion for EU4.
The changes so far look amazing!

@Liam ; EU5 is already in development, look in the paradox forum at Tinto talks:

I think EU5 will be released in 6-12 months from now.

EU4 on steam is DRM free. For people who want to buy it on GOG. You should be able to use multiplayer.

Quoting: RedjeIn the Dutch interview from tweakers, they also mention they wanna move to immutable OS. And that they probably cannot do it with Debian packaging. So maybe they move over to fedora or arch?

Do you have a link? I coudn't find it.
Pop!_OS and Fedora Silverblue are currently my most favourite OSes on a Laptop.

I really love a lot of games from paradox dev studio….

But I believe this is an terrible direction that paradox is taking here.
They could also just release a big bundle of DLCs for a big price reduction.
But no, they choose to take the subscription path were you own nothing, pay a monthly or yearly fee.

Just no, there are already more then enough subscription services that try to rip you off.

Well, he could just release a native version of Fortnite, so he doesn’t have to deal with the insecurities from proton/wine.
