I'd hate a modern era game. Don't make assumptions. The obviousness of the connection between the recent teaser and Rome makes an antiquity game unlikely. Did you even read the other teasers? Why would they say something so obvious after so much vagueness. No Norway = Shams wearing a Rome 2 shirt.

i will remembre this .
seems you are not experienced on history or antiquity precisely and this is why you think that teases about minorities and religon and goods cant fit with that time period .
seriously some peoples would be offended by this .

Didn't they state after the very very vague early teasers that the hints would get clearer as the week went on? No Norway is a pretty clear nod to Rome since the land area of Norway was just cut off in Rome 1, and even if they put it in this time there would still be no 'Norway' on the map since Norway wasn't a thing in antiquity. It works well however you interpret it.

agreed . for mediteranians norway region didnt exist at all and the last tribe known there was local tribes of scania and sjaelland in the extreme south of sweden and danemark like the GAETS tribe .
mentioning that there is no norway mean that its kill the modern days game theories .
and for those who think that teases are somekind of conspiration or delusional messages or idk to make us BELIEVE something just to release something else those are very wrong . teases of games always make sense after the release and the only delusional here are your minds full with conspirations and theories and illusions about vic and and modern days etc ... .

i dont say its IS rome .not 100% but its still the favorite number 1 .
vic was denied months ago and fantasy game grand campagne is something that will not happend after the devs last year during or after pdxcon cant remembre . if you watch twiche and hear what the devs say sometimes to peoples in chat you will know what i mean .
you build your theories here on delusion while the awnsers of what you claim now was all denied over and over by various devs during the stream .
please watch paradox streams so next time you stop making bold (sometimes stupid) theories .

If it's not Rome and not Vicky, what other possibilities are there?

A Late Antiquity game is well within the realm of possibility, given the hints so far.

My wishlist is:

3. Victoria 3

2 & 3 are ruled out ... and if it is not 1, then:

It'll be a fantastic PDS game that I will sink hundreds (thousands) of hours into. ;)

That would be the biggest Rometrolling yet. Realistically though last year we allready got one or two clear hints or statements showing it was not Rome, this year we got clear confirmation it's not victoria but not a word about Rome. And every hint would fit a (spiritual) successor to EU:Rome 2.

Not announcing Rome 2 would definately make me pissed and feel shitty for a few days.

What would it be if not Rome 2? They have repeated denied it's Vicky 3, so either they are blatantly lying to us, or it's something else. If it's not Rome and not Vicky, what other possibilities are there?
Basically anything? It might not even be a GSG.

If they didn't want us to be disappointed they should have hinted to exclude Rome. Them's the rules.
That's not how they roll.

The Norway hint excludes Rome.
No it does not, in fact most Rome games don't have norway. Rome TW had the landmass but it was part of the same province as Sweden. You could easily make it wasteland or cut the map before Norway.
I would totally buy a fully done fantasy version of ck2.
I think that you ar ebetter of not thinking along the lines of GSGs, perhaps a magicka sequel? They did include the word spell in one of the hints.

Great Migrations. Dark Ages game.
Or basically anything.
