You mean like the historically accurate Aztec invasion of Europe?

It bothers me a lot this, my grandfather fought against the aztec hordes and died in the Battle of the Pyrenees.

Back then, people couldn't understand how the Aztecs were speaking spanish. But now, we do. They were conquered by the spanish in the future.

Have they released any similar dlc since? I think they realized it was stupid as fuck even for them.


Right. Vikings were well known for finding purple axes inscribed with +3 during their raids.

I feel stronger.

Plus of course, portal to hell, summoning cthulhu, child that is literally a demon...

Paradox never went to great lengths to preserve historical accuracy.

Let it be known I don't particularly care either way. Just wanted to point out "historical accuracy" was never a concern that kept paradox from adding silly shit in the past

Welp, that 25% off was too much for me to resist. I took the plunge and pre-ordered.

The game looks good. I hope it ends up being so.

Couldn't resist either. At the very least it will provide a decent modding base.

Everything I see gives me a real Distant Worlds vibe. Which is not necessarily a bad thing, but I assume since it's Pdox this game won't be "finished until a couple years, 100 patches and 6 expansions later. Then it will be great. :greatjob:
 

Got bored and left

Huh, that late game threat (it's the Unbidden) showed up pretty early and wrecked some dudes. Interesting.

When you choose your FTL drive, the jump drive route has a chance to unleash them every time you jump.

I'm pretty sure jump drives are supposed to be late game technology, Quigs

The starting FTL choices are wormhole, warp and hyperlane travel.

Enjoy your broken buggy ass mods that become unplayable after every minor DLC
