Quoting: HoriLooks like Paradox heard us. There's a sale on Humble Bundle now with lots of Paradox DLC. :)Quoting: LungDragoI'm afraid to look at and calculate how much energy credits it would cost me to buy in the missing DLC/expansions at this point. :(IKR I have had the same problem with EU4 for years... and it's only getting worse and worse as time passes. At this point I've given up on the idea of getting into it and would rather wait for a EU5... whenever that comes

This feels like an appropriate time to declare I'm on team Necromancide.

Quoting: fractalOn a related note, the EUIV board game can be demoed for free if you own Tabletop Simulator.Book your entire afternoon for that one. It's one hell of a board game.

Quoting: LakortaEU4 will (most likely) soon get a subscription based service where you buy a monthly fee to gain access to all DLCs (they added localization files for this in a recent update).Honestly, I think for Europa Universalis it would be more interesting to use a model similar to what the Dominions series has been doing for years now. Just update it for free, then bump up the version and sell the game again every now and then with a bigger release.

Quoting: axredneckNow i need something like this for Android. Now i use Medibang Paint but it's proprietary and not flexible enough.Godot should export to Android too, so there's a chance this could have such a version, no?
Some thoughts on Linux gaming in 2019, an end of year review

a) Office suites. That one I always didn't really understand, I always thought you use those mostly at work, I personally have very little use of them at home. But regardless, it's great on Linux. BUT it's still a push and pull, because M$ does its best to keep their product relevant.
b) Artist stuff from Photoshop all the way to 3D. Perhaps a bit paradoxically, Linux does better in 3D than it does in 2D, as I believe Blender is overall way better built software than most stuff you can get to do your 2D. And this was, is and always will be a big issue, because Adobe are d*cks.
And then of course gaming. Honestly, nowadays I really think it's just a matter of time. The hot AAA games that everyone including your 6 year old son should play come and go. Maybe the next big thing will run on Linux well.

Quoting: TheRiddickLinux has a learning curve along with some constraints to what software you can use and how you can use it. Windows FAR less so, its not about being perfect, its about doing most of what you want. Linux sadly doesn't for most people. Yet anyway.Depends on what we think that most people do on their PC. If it's surf the web, watch movies and porn and stuff, Linux is great. The things people always talk about are:

From my experience though, most people are still in the late 90's when it comes to Linux. It's an elite OS for programmers, tech gurus and hackers. Even though they have Linux on their phone. :)

Quoting: TheRiddickHey I was just saying, don't act like Linux is all roses and daffodils, it has a mountain of issues that need to be addressed before we see those steam statistics budge significantly in a positive way.Hey, it's not like Windows is all roses and daffodils either. There's bugs and "missing features" in every software, OS or game. I have to agree with Liam though that marketing is our biggest problem. Note that not every gamer out there uses every possible gaming store and plays every single AAA game that's currently the hot stuff. I believe we would all be surprised at how many gamers could quite feasibly switch to Linux and still play what they want to play (LoL, Hearthstone, Warframe, etc.) IF they knew Linux existed and that it was an option.
