Is it possible to increase the time of the steam to two hours as they(you as in Paradox) are doing with Stellaris?

BTW great stream's this week for both HOI4 and Stellaris!

Daniel is being particularly meticulous as of late and for the sake of having a stream that is as intensely action-packed as it is mechanically-instructive I too would stipulate that a two hour stream is pretty much mandatory. That said, last week's World War Wednesday was awesome either way and I'm just super appreciative we even have it at all. Kudos, Paradox!

Ye i thought it was pretty impressive on how well Dan covered the topics that he was asked to go over. I really like the approach paradox is doing by streaming their new games, not only does it build up more hype but also shows the core mechanics of the games and how the games run as well.

I couldn't agree more, it has also made me feel alot better about alot of these new mechanics and features, so see them work well in action.

Ye I was unsure about certain mechanics about the game, mainly the Civ and Military industry, but now I believe it is a much better system than HOI3. And in all i was disappointed about the removal of the OOB, but I actually like the new way divisions are 'ordered' and finally i think that the battle planner is one of the best ideas that they have implemented.

*edit* i also cant wait for the game so i can do this as Canada

While i would love 2 hours of time every week id really prefer they spend that extra time polishing the game. It really is a big time synch doing this stuff and while it keeps fans happy id guess its pretty counterproductive considering how many people it removes from work. We only have a few more months until release lets give them all the time they need to make it exceptional.

One thing have literally zero thing to with the other. Less time on the stream doesn't, at all, means more time polishing the game. The people who play the game are not even devs proper, they are part of the QA team.

Anyway, as much I would love more time on WWW, you guys need to remember that the situation with Stellaris is completely different. Stellaris not only have been having streams for a much shorter time, it will also be released sooner. The extra weekly hour is probably to "make up" for that. To allow them to go through a large part (if not all) of the game before release. With HoI4, not only we have had a full game already, but it is also still likely Daniel will be able to reach the end game in the two remaining months regardless.

if you think QA literally has zero to do with polishing the game then you dont understand the process at all. QA is an integral component of polising a game or for that matter pretty much any software.

I doubt a QA team spending 2 hours of their time showing us HOI4 would hurt paradox's effort at all in developing the game, they're a QA team! not developers!

its not just 2 hours. its at least one more hour a week for what 12 weeks. the time adds up towards the total process. Again i would actually like to see more but its a considerable investment in time when its all added up. Most end users don't understand this. When all the time is added up once all is said and done this could be weeks of time for all parties accounted for. Paradox has been really great about giving us alot of things other developers don't but at some point its really not very productive for them.
