Wiz cares about such things because he was once just a player like we all are

Yes, I think this is the way forward for PDS. Instead of hiring developers who were dragged out of the coal mines in Sweden and have never played a computer game before, they should hire developers that were once just players like we all are!

Both extremes ,as any extreme, are horrible ideas. A good mix is the thing to go for. Only through broadening your horizons you can better yourself. Cram yourself in a corner you start to deteriorate. just look at the Big companies. All eaten up with their closed in developments only looking to industry specialist and such.
But only going for the open approach will invoke confusion and no direction. You need both sides.


And love wiz work and frequent appearances on the forums. And all the other folk's in paradox. Keep grounded with your audience. But don't drown in the sea.

Oi! I've played these games since I was in a diaper :glare: Which according to Wiz, I stopped wearing yesterday.

Now you're misquoting me. I said it was *at least* five years ago.

I can't think of bad things to say of Paradox as a whole. Yeah sometimes they make decisions I disagree with but overall they are still number one on my list, as they have been ever since I first played their games.
Hear, hear. Much appreciation to not only Wiz, but to the entire CK2 and Paradox Interactive team for the work they have done and continue to do.

What makes Paradox such a great company and their games so fun experience are, above all else, the developers:

Hey, get back to work! CK2 is beyond playable, all DLC suck balls, India sucks balls too. So does EU4 with and without vassal-feeding.

Hey, keep up the good work! CK2 is beyond anything I could have imagined twenty years ago, you keep on adding cool stuff and I love Indian food. I also love EU4 and who gives a crap about vassal-feeding.

/me.

I am too busy dumbing down HoI4 to worry about these CKs or EUs you speak of! :)

Did you finish the cover mechanics yet? I'm busy making AI for the deathmatch bots.

We need objective markers that constantly remind you that you have to invade Poland.
 
Better watch out, the I love Wiz threads may result in the other devs forming a faction to throw him in the Oubliette to be rid of him.
