Whaddya mean Stellaris? Project Ceasar is obvioussly City Skylines.

​@@danvernier198 Nah, it's pretty obvious by now that it's actually ck4.

I know , Imperator 2 cames earlier than hoi5

“If I die here, I'm dead" kind of comment

I doubt they can afford another flop to be honest

There has to be, otherwise once you and the AI start creating bigger markets you'd have a single city in the middle of your market that is entirely in their own market.

I refuse to call them that! :v

If the 'they' you meant is Byzantine subjects, then they would call themselves Roman and say they lived in the Roman Empire. Many other peoples wouldn't call them Roman at all preferring to terms like Hellenes/Greeks/etc. and saying they lived in the Empire/Kingdom of the Greeks.

@@Alex_Fahey no, just the Catholics and Protestant did, and they did so for religious reasons (because the Pope refused subordination of his church to the Emperor) and they made a "new", "western", "(holy)", """roman""", "empire" so they could remain independent from the actual Romans living in the east. Everyone else around them excluding them and the Roman themselves (so Persian, Africans, Arabians) referred to them as Romans. The language of the Romans in the East has always been Greek for commerce and diplomacy, to them and anyone else besides the western separatists, nothing changed.

@@ShiningLight You start your response by ceding the point and saying that all the Catholic world would not call them Roman. Do you not see that this contradicts your original comment? You have just argued that Catholics - which covered much of Europe before, during, and after the mediaeval ages - did not call them Roman (which is frankly far, far more extreme than my own opinion). You argue this yet maintain the idea that calling the ERE something other than simply Roman is a modern invention. Unless you think """modern""" begins somewhere around 800 AD, then I don't understand how you can think your initial statement is true.

@@Alex_Fahey that's not what I said in the original post. I said that calling it "Eastern" Roman Empire is a modern invention. At the time, the Catholic called it Empire of the Greeks/Byzantine sure, everyone else they were just Romans, but I meant that the word "Eastern" was never an official title of the state.

lmao

It's in both last 2 videos. Johan said you can eithe fully sutomate it or exclude specific merchants from automation or do it fully manually

the problem with automation is that if you give to the ai, the ai is going to be hilariously shit at managing it, just like in all other paradox games

@@BobbiusRossius i wouldnt say shit, if they are just 'okay' it will be perfect. 1. It's more than needed for a newbie 2. Experienced players can set up a few strategies resources themselves and let ai automate the rest and 3. Dudes that like roleplaying and micromanaging will be able to do so, great for a tall, trade focused games

@@BobbiusRossius yea but if you have 150 types of buildings and resources to manage, then as i said, it will be tedious to manage everywhere if you own half of the world. if you give same automation to player as AI uses to build up, then even if its shit it will still be fine because both of you are doing it bad. but as zlewikk said, if you want to micromanage you can still do that. i imagine most people will turn on automation in lots of provinces, but micromanage few mots important ones. otherwise you will spend an hour paused while micromanaging every province every ingame year or whatever

@@ZlewikkTV that's true but i don't exactly trust paradox to make it even just "okay", hoi4 has some ai stuff to "automate" and its beyond awful if they design automation well then cool i'm happy to be proved wrong, but i personally don't trust paradox to make it work decently well

Dude is a game director and the biggest figure in the company, he always says what he thinks and feels, especially after Imperator initial issues

Johan talks about Tinto Talks as dev diares every week ;)

@@ZlewikkTV lies, deception!

Did you watch till the part where Johan explains not at all if you dont want to? :p

Huhh?? Why?

Dynamic trade is actually an eu3 mechanic :)

I'd say the opposite. A lot of this looks like Johan looking at Vic3 with disgust and remaking mechanics from Vic2 in the EU mold.

They have 2 M&T modders hired as devs
