Let's not add things to a game set at least two centuries ago based on liberal culture today. I play this game with my wife and daughters, we all enjoy it just fine without such pretensions.
Well, good thing they're adding historical figures and things like portraits, then. I mean, both actually existed these two centuries ago and further back, and have nothing to do with being based on liberal culture of today.

Great, political perverseness seeping into one of my favorite gaming companies now. I'd be fine with some historical events and female additions (with a low mtth) but lining this up with "International Women's Day" is over the top.

The irony of "but it's history!" comments like this is that it sounds like they're only adding historical women to the game. But sure, hop in your time machine and tell Catherine the Great and Grace O'Malley that their existence is a "pretension" of modern times.

Off course it is. All great and most good rulers in history were, in fact, either a future or alternate version of me(sometimes both). As soon as I hit the chronological point where I have access to enough proof I will send it to you but for the time being trust me. :laugh:

Its a company, they will line up a release like this with an appropriate holiday if they can. I don't remember complaints about Songs of Yuletide like these. Plus do the events they added insert modern ideas of feminism into the past or just adding historically important women in as flavor? I haven't had the time to look at them yet.

They only add historically great women as flavor.

It has vocal anti-support.
Correct, people who think Nintendo should lift that ban are expressing it (even PewDiePie).
If something isn't vocal how would anyone know it's there? Mind-reading?

That's what I thought.
That's not what people are upset about from my reading of the thread, people think the coinciding date acts as a twisted megaphone Paradox uses to push the marxist feminist view.

Everybody knows women didn't exist until the 1960s. How dare Paradox force this PC revisionist crap down our throats with free optional DLC!

And the "pro" side is just disgusting, saying things like "sounds fun!" and "thanks, this means a lot to me" and "hooray for more content" and "yay some of my favorite historical women are included". Can't they hear how gross they're being? Women shouldn't be talked about and especially not depicted, it's perverse. Acknowledging the existence of Catherine the Great is declaring war on the mythical housewife!

The only way this dlc would make sense to me, would be if paradox unfairly represented women in the first place.

If so, then I suppose they may have a reason to correct their error. If not, then they are over-representing women based on cultural whims. I don't want new material added to my games based on political movements.

Why do we have historical character events when the butterfly effect means none of them would probably be born?

Well to quote the OP (first time I think in thread):
OP said:
"It's no surprise that the role of women in history isn't as well known as that of men,” Johansson says. “Europa Universalis, admittedly, hasn't done a lot to foreground their contributions. We thought that International Women's Day was the best time to do a little bit to help balance the scales and introduce our audience to some very interesting people

I only learned about Roxelana from watching a documentary about the Ottomans, because I liked the country after a few games.

Its not that many events in the big picture. Plus they are constantly adding new flavor events and its not like its a huge deal if women are over represented for once. This didn't need to be political.
