all victoria 3 needs is

1. ability to convert simple rgo's, like from fruit to cattle, fish in shores, lumber in forests, etc... perhaps even multiple rgo's per province. also some products could be produced from different goods (clothes from both cotton and/or wool)
2. smoother map and user interface
3. new combat system with variable/less attrition, less casualties for both sides and less randomness factor

4. religion system, so that catholics can feel better under a fellow christian country than under a muslim country
5. better "assimilation" and internal migration system
6. reformed economy system, countries having millions of pounds in their reserves makes 0 sense. make it easier for countries to get into debt, but do not punish them too much for it. will also make interesting scenarios during financial meltdowns

7. great power council that solves crisis and/or decides the fate of other countries.
8. reformed alliance system. right now it feels very random at times. also do not let sphere leaders to directly join sphereling wars with other minors. instead they should only give them money/equipment and volunteers and only interverne by asking permission from the council. can you imagine russia sending thousands of troops into serbia to defend their ottoman sphereling?
9. less punishment for being a minor country. otherwise, you just force everyone to spam prestige techs. more factors for country rating, like population, income and technology

10. trade agreements, embargoes, naval blockades
11. reformed rebellion system. no more than 2 rebellions can be active at any time. rebellions should be less likely to happen, with major protests and strikes being more common instead, but when they happen it means that they are ready and confident about beating you. other countries could fund such traitors if it's in their interests.
12. more organized general system, generals should be both less useless and less op and can be fired

So I did the math the first DLC for HoI4 should be out before december I would say. Then if we judge that art of war is the dlc that made EU4 "good" then it should take till about july next year for HoI4 to be good. Wanna bet that that DLC is gonna come out on 4th of july and gonna be america focused. And deal with special forces america and neutral countries roles in world affairs like screencap this I guarantee it.

by the way, that's if you want them not to assimilate once the flag is set.

If you want them to assimilate only if the flag is set, throw an extra not clause around has_country_flag:

modifier = {
factor = -1
OR = {
is_accepted_culture = yes

has_pop_religion = yazidi
NOT = {
has_country_flag = the_flag_you_set

I quit a campaign like that awile back. I was american fairth i stretched from ohio in the west to Vermont in the north. Then I got bored. I tired of waiting forever to take a small piece of land from the HCE and for some reason non of my land was converting despite me having 100% religious authority and all my vassles being american faith. I also converted a good chunk of the south great lakes and the western great planes to the true faith.

Johan is an Autist.

He does not like how Paradox is dealing with their games. He doesn't like the DLC policy, he doesn't like the casualization, he doesn't like the SWEDEN YES-tier intrusions to his historical simulators.

And yes, he privately laments on not making the games more like simulators and less like platforms for easy fun and DLC.

He's a sub-par male specimen due to his physical health, but he likes his games. He just can't do anything but go with the company's flow, he is silenced and basically acts as a lunch-time bug-tester and balancer, a face of Paradox PR and a testemant to past age of Paradox GS games.

He still occasionally plays EU2 and his earlier games, that is more we can say about the newer, more 'progressive' employees at the company.

Johan is an Autist.

He was the creative designer on Stellaris, nothing more. He had a more prominent role in EU4 as the lead for Game Design, but was heavily constrained by release schedule and Wester (CEO) influencing the development to create a more profitable platform for DLC and easy fun. Johan had an even bigger role in the development of CK2 as it's Producer for it's initial development back in 2012, and less constrained by a still transient Wester who had not discovered the perfect formula for profit. CK2, at the time, was an 'okay' game that many people could have seen being improved to be better than CK1, and more.

CK2's DLC was not developed in any way by Johan, and look at the game now.

Games previous to CK2 are either acceptable or more high up there in autistry, while Paradox was still a small (sub-40 employees) yet growing company and Johan still had a voice that was listened to.

Johan is an Autist.

How do I prevent the civil war as USA in HPM?

>>146252235
I've seen people with average ~1mil views per month post screenshots (against the TOS) of their income, and it's around $1k per a million. But then again, those were twitch streamers where the main audience has adblock integrated with the OS, so it might be slightly higher for him. I'd guess around $3-4k for his current channel per month, considering the content he's uploading attracts a bit older of a viewerbase, and the older it is, the smaller the portion of it has the knowledge (and need) to install an adblocker

>>146249602
Colonial migration in HPM has the following simple modifiers:

-0.5 if the pop isn't primary culture (in this case British)
-0.3 if the state has a factory
-0.1/0.2/0.3 if the pop has less than 8/7/6 consciousness
+0.1/0.2/0.3 if the pop has less than 90%/80%/70% life needs
+0.3/0.6/0.9 if the pop has 10%/20%/30% unemployment
+0.15 if the country has colonial transportation

You need these to sum higher than 0 if you want colonial migration, the focus only affects where the pops move to, not whether they move.

HPM, are you here? I have a question about map mods

So what country should I play in Divergances, lads? I'm thinking Scandinavia, but it's basically a game of endurance then.

Go for it lad. I've always loved the Baltic region for some reason.

But don't focus too much into Germany. Expand into Baltics, and eventually Ingrian people's land, and eventually some Russians. Turn to Protestantism, but maintain the Order. Or become a republic. Colonize. You will learn what a harsh mistress debt is, but ride the wave. You can make it. The various people that make the Livonians will make it to 1821, but only if you believe!

Ah, Livonia. It was my first EUIV game, I still remember it fondly.
