I wonder what if anything they'll do to keep interaction between Europeans and Indians to a minimum? It makes sense for people in the middle east to talk to both groups, but they shouldn't have any direct contact.

Welp, I'd still prefer it that CK2 would be further deepened rather than broadened, but, on the other hand, I'm sure there'll be Kama Sutra-related events, so this can't be a bad expansion.

Goddamnit, Paradox. You won't make me waste 100 more hours on this game. I refuse to give in.

Unnnggggh. I'm failing in my resolve, brothers. Help me! Help me....

At the very least the bastard events for Indians should have those references. "I gave her a good tumble... UPSIDE DOWN!"

Kill yourself. Not because you play Crusader Kings 2, but because you form part of the shitty popamoler trilogy, along J_C and Matt12455whatever.
I have no idea what you're talking about.

Time to create an inversion of the muslim conquest of India. Except this time it will also include the fall of Constantinople along the way. Think Hindi Ottoman + Mughal Empires.

They posted a feature preview
  • Rajas of India features twice the landmass of the base game.
  • Play as an Indian ruler. Start a new and quite different type of game by playing as an Indian raja in 867 (if you have The Old Gods expansion) or at any point between 1066 to 1337 AD.
  • Three new Unique Religions. Choose between the Buddhist, Jain and Hindu beliefs for different benefits.
  • Caste System.
  • Experience Indian Events & Decisions.
  • Elephants and Jungles.
  • Hundreds of new Provinces including Central Asia and large parts of Siberia too.
  • New Interface Skin.
  • Indian characters get a unique set of facial profiles and clothes.
  • Steam MP Matchmaking and Steam Workshop: These features are brought over from Europa Universalis IV into Crusader Kings II, together with Borderless Windowed mode in the patch together with the release of the expansion.

Soon, it will be two years since Crusader Kings 2 was released. So, in a way, I think that Paradox reached a whole new level of fostering a fanbase. Perhaps because the pressure of SHINY NEW AGE GRAPHICS is nill, they can churn out actual expansions for so long. At this point I wouldn't doubt that we'll get a Theocracy and a Horde Steppe DLC right before some sort of China expansion. This is why, I think, they can get away with these barrages of cosmetic DLC that overwhelms people every few years.

I don't know much of Paradox's finances, but if push comes to shove they'll have to do things like Blizzard. The price for buying everything except the latest DLC will be either equal or less (most likely less) than that of a full game. That should be enough.

I wonder if they'll ever make a Crusader Kings III at this rate? Even if they vastly improve the base mechanics in ways that couldn't be patched into CK2, a CK3 will seem like a huge step back compared to the sheer amount of content added by the CK2 expansions.

As with all their games there will be a 2 year dead cycle in between. More than enough time to deprecate CKII.

Everyone who browses this forum posts in some way.
And that's how these posts happen, each and every day.
Just look at retardoland or crojibjibs place which is totally gay.
It's all here because of poo, and now I will tell you why...

Your posts are read by sperglords, who post diarrhea and spam.
Their opinion fuses with their body and becomes the poo they type. And that poo routes through the internet, which is tucked into the wall. There it is caught by the NSA, which becomes the governments meat. The government grows bigger with the poo still inside, it floats to the surface and gets eaten again. By the media that turns the poo into some kind of brand, so that it can spring to life and become poo for the land!

It's the poo of the right-wing protesters, It's the poo of the sales staff. Which crawls down into facebook, where it gets read by every ass. The asses blog their prattle, which is read by you on the other end, which become shitposts on the forum all over again.

Just like you post without thinking about it, so too do the google and banksters do what they do. Without even thinking about it! But it's all one life form. It's all you.
That is the cycle. The cycle of your posts.

I think the next step should be tying all this enormous CKII simulation framework into an actual RPG.
