Quoting: BielFPs... that Phasmophobia requires Cortana to use the voice functions of the game, ...
Wow, that's so braindead.
They did this to take advantage of the Cortana's AI, despite the "Windows dependency" part, I think this was actually pretty smart of them.
That's a sure way of making sure your game is completely unplayable in 5 years is what that is.

Paradox celebrate 1 year of Crusader Kings III with stats, like Cannibalism being popular

Quoting: denyasisSo honest question....
Is CK3 so much better than 2 that is worth buying 3? Or should I hold off until it gets fleshed out with a couple more expansions?

I have CK2 and most of it's expansions, which cost a lot. I haven't played it much and would basically be a new player.... I guess I'm worried that I would spend a lot of money on a game I fundamentally already have.
I may be stating the obvious here, but you should probably first play the game you already have, see if you even like it, before you decide to by the sequel :D

> One of the stats they gave out showed that Cannibalism has been adopted 14,000 times! Oh my.

Well it's just a game. Like we keep playing games where we kill people and animals left and right, it's not like we have any desire to do that in real life.

I don't really know why this game is popular. It felt very repetitive to me, despite the wildly different characters. Like the strategies are different ok, but the world and enemies themselves are just too repetitive and boring IMO.

Quoting: jarl.arntzenWhy not just call it "Couch OS".
Much more fun name which is actually perfectly related with the use case :D
That sounds like the OS is running on your couch. Smart couches anyone?

If you liked Salt & Sanctuary, you should play this game. Also if you liked Axiom Verge or Hollow Knight.
