I am not betting on it.....well the DV patch is still beta after 2 years(?). It could be a spin off of the EU series in the same vein of Rome though.

 

[TempestDK]

Maybe it is Ulmont's project?? ...

But I am too afraid of being disappointed, to get my hopes up for something Ck-based.

 

[Galaahd]

We can only hope.

 

[TempestDK]

As expected ... biiiig disappointment.

Johan just confirmed that it has nothing to do with CK

 

[Count of Reval]

not anything at all to do with ck.

Oh well... that's that then.

 

[Galaahd]

No

Our time will come, lads. Sometime, it will...

 

[Aat Jago]

Our time will come, lads. Sometime, it will...

Until that day comes, I will still be playing CK. It's the game that really gained my love.
I sincerely hope that someday, at least a revamped CK ala FtG will be released. Better yet, a true sequel. Now, I can only hope and pray...

It all depends on how you see it:

when ck2 is announced, it will be called ck2, not something else.

and no, we are not working on ck2 yet...

There is still hope

My English isn't that good, but I have a strong gut feeling, that instead of "when" Johan meant "if", in his first sentence (especially because that word was emphasized in bold). He just wanted to quit pointless speculations.

And (continuing pointless speculations)... I'm afraid that after today's news we can pretty much bury our hopes seeing official CK2 ever (except maybe some remake similar to FtG, in a distant future). It seems to be highly improbable they will return to the same theme - crusades - so repetitively (and if they intend to keep the initial name, they can't shift an era, the game is covering, too much). My humble guess is that, in a sense, "Lionheart: Kings' Crusade" IS a "Crusader Kings 2" - just in a form, which is expected to be more successful (taken into account market trends).

I wouldn't say so. Remember that Lionheart is not developed by Paradox, but by a third-party company.

Gods know that Johan's english is not perfect ... but I am pretty sure that when he emphasizes "when" and "yet", that they do have plans of making a sequel. So on that note I am pretty optimistic about getting a sequel ... though it might be a year or more before we see anything CK-ish.

 

[jordarkelf]

I'll keep hoping.

 

[Veldmaarschalk]

We can still hope and this is what the CEO of Paradox just said

You mean we would register an alter ego to boost a new game?

It's better I tell you in person; I think this is a really great team and I think the game will be great as well; otherwise we wouldn't have signed it. No alter ego needed to tell you that.

I love CK too btw, one of our best games ever.

[Rinmaru]

The years of waiting for news of a sequel... Its getting to me, man! :wacko:

 

[LordofSaxony]

Even though a CK FtG would be nice, I would much.. much.. much.. rather have a true sequel. Sounds like CK2 will be in production at some point.

 

[Nick B II]

Keep in mind Vicie came out before CK. It's their turn.

Just give Johan a bunch of coffee and sugar sticks, then hire a taskmaster with a whip, he'll get CK2 done. :rofl:

 

[Fookison]

Either a remake of a classic (aka FTG) or a full sequel to CK-DV would be welcome. The concept and gameplay are brilliant!! IMO.....
PS: Afterall I have a new FTG and soon to be HTTT to entertain me until a new CK2 emerges.
