I'm hoping the icon is Kurtz (Brando). Heart of Darkness was probably the most interesting book I had to read in high school.

Unless this is an accurate picture of The Super Pope:
Have you been taking photos of me again?
On older cpus it's really taking some time when it comes to load the army menu for example when there is a late game with thousands of brigades on map.
Lookimg forward to this 
I'm glad to see naval combat, and navies in general seeing some improvements, they were a very noticeable weakspot in an otherwise great game.

Yes, yes!!! A million times yes!!!
I'm very excited about this expansion, way more than CKII (and I was blown away with the new start date). I'm slightly, slightly disappointed for not having a WWI focus (which you could please improve the current system JUST a little in this one!) but I believe you are focusing on the main issues we have at the moment. Colonization is one of the areas that never got into much in my games, but I'm glad that it is going to be revamped.
Got two questions though: 1) Should we expect colonization wars between GPs to be fought within the disputed colonies only instead of carrying it over to Europe, for ex? and 2) with this new release, are we supposed to expect the new Paradox model with a bunch of following DLCs or this is an old-school giant expansion with a higher price?

Yay! The new naval combat looks lovely. The newspapers look fun and flavorful, oh better colonization will be fantastic.
That said, y'all have to do a third expansion after this one for land war and politics. We must have the most perfect grand strategy game!

Is this going to be like Vicky 1 or KaiserReich when the winners decide how to partition the losers?
i am unable to play victoria 2 ever since i saw that naval battle screen shot... i cannot stop thinking about it
I'll be sure to play as the USA and find a way to get embroiled in a long war with/in Vietnam.
If this expansion has the ability to redraw the map without having to fight so hard and take so much infamy, I'd be delighted. Most of my games have me trying to break up blobs for the role reason that they look ugly or I want to give people self-determination.
The features seem good so far. Onlt thing i miss with the new system is that diplomacy makes a bit more sense, instead of major powers constantly allying and breaking the alliances with no apparent reason

On the contrary, stay tuned.
We will see, but I doubt it. There is major rework necessary, and these would be mentioned amongst main features.
I don't think "the buggeringly bad core diplomatic system" was supposed to imply that there are bugs in the current diplomacy mechanics. Just that they're bad.
I suspect what they're mainly complaining about is the relations mechanics. Bi-directional relations and being able to get anyone in the world to love you just by spamming them with diplomats aren't great. Especially in comparison to the system in CK2/EU4.
