I would love to see a Paradox space 4X game because it would be so different to all the others on the market.A real galactic space simulation.

Thanks for the post, it was a nice read. But next time, I would recommend posting it in the main IAMA subreddit and x-posting it to /r/paradoxplaza. The larger one is far more populated and you'll get far more attention there. The magicka guys posted an IAMA there and got 4-5 times as many comments as you did Johan.

"If I were a betting man, I'd put my life savings on us making another hoi3 expansion..."

YES, PLEASE!

Very informative, many good comments. It's a pity that there seems to be little interest in creating a game set in the Ancient Greece, as there is much unexplored potential there. The game could combine the best elements of EUIII and CKII.

i guess audience is not that big.

So, definately a HOI3 expansion. Maybe a EU3 expansion and potentially something outside of the 1066-1950 timeframe (please be Rome 2). That sounds pretty good to me.

 

[RedRooster81]

Yes, I'd encourage you to do it again.

I did play as the Ptolemies in EU Rome, which was a lot of fun and the Roman Republic had only two provinces or so.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms in the makings...?

Definitely!

How do you know?

 

[Arathian]

So, when do we get an interview over at /v/?

 

[s1234567890m]

How do you know?

seeing as he started that sentence with, 'i guess'

 

[James_Manring]

I about died when I read that Johan wants Rome 2. Whatever I have to do to appease the gods, I will do it for Rome 2.

I also liked a couple of other hints at internal projects and ideas that were cooking.

Yeah, a dark ages game is out. However, a HOI3 expansion and a Cold War game sound likely IMO.
