What do you think the next DLC is going to be and are we getting another one after that?

[Black Turtle]

Any guesses on the next DLC?

We know that it's not focused on the regions of the map changes they've shown us so far.

My guess is Arab culture rework and Africa focus.

Also just how many DLCs do you think are left? Jade Dragon was supposed to be the last "major" DLC, with one small one after that, which is where we're at now. Or are they just going to continue making CK2 dlcs until the end of time?

JD wasn't major. Neither was MnM.

But they said it was. Doomdark specifically said it was a large DLC and a smaller one afterwards.

Doomdark didn't say *anything* specifically, except perhaps that the last DLC *should* be a big one.

EDIT: yes, I have that link bookmarked. It comes up way too often.

Johan doesn't work on CK2 though.

I sincerely hope they don't do another one after this. The game is old, its playerbase has dwindled, send it off big and leave it be.

They would be dumb if now stopped make dlcs, after so much people got it free. I think they will do AT LEAST 3 or 4 DLCs, otherwise they didn't make this big sale

The jolt of player activity is just a temporary blip. It is absolutely the wrong call to not put the game to rest. They are building this massive, massive bubble that's going to burst on them sooner or later.

The next one is a large one:

Meneth is an absolute champ, for sure, but not the only one around. And nobody has been fired. The next expansion is just large.

I'm almost 100% certain whatever it'll be they will completely revamp the african portion of the map.

Think about it. They just worked to revamp all of the middle east with a guy who's mod also revamps africa but they didn't touch africa at all. Not even egypt! Revamping the map is clearly on their minds since all the last DDs have been about it. Of course they wont show what they're actually planning for the DLC until they're ready to actually tease the DLC so they've been showing off their revamps of europe since it's important but unrelated. And lastly revamping europe in the same patch as revamping africa is the only way for them to ward off the hundreds of 'it's crusader kangs not crusader anywhere else' posts.

My expectations are that'll probably have to do with the Mediterranean if not africa proper.

Who think a it's a crusade dlc?

..They just worked to revamp all of the middle east with a guy who's mod also revamps africa ...

What ??
Who ?
How do you get that idea ?

 

[Black Turtle]

Well it's apparently something everyone has been asking for so I'm guessing playable theocracies.

Hahaha you've really saved that quote for maximum usage

Some people think the free sale is a sign that ck3 is coming.

I indeed think so also, as they are updating map around the Baltic, which is the second most important Crusade location (there is also Iberia but it more a regular holy war location then Crusade)

I really hope Crusade become more of an expedition then a free for all winner take all. That way it also become possible for it to run out of money and go on a 4th Crusade for a "devout" enterprising individual willing to take on their dept. =p

My vision is to basically make Crusader state their own government type, where other ruler can gain political power according to their contribution. They are player playable but you have to balance between centralizing your power, influence of other power, and getting their contribution.

You basically gain benefit from sending money, soldier, competent people, relative, or joining yourself, with lesser benefit when Crusade is not going on. If you go yourself your demesne fall under regency, but you get gain influence over how the Crusade expedition can proceed (possibly direct control of an army if important part of the force is yours, i.e. Toulouse in first Crusade, France and England in Third) and political influence over the formation of the Crusader States if not a direct control of one. The other contribution only give you influence once the states are formed.

 

[smellymummy]

that sounds a lot like how a Crusader King would do things

Well we already have China, so might as well reuse some of it system, it just that this time, it is for on the map powers. Part of the Crusade system could also be a good for "Great Heathen Army" for the unreformed pagan tribal, so they become more threatening.

Are you kidding?

@elvain worked with the devs for the last patch.

Proof ?

I know his mod(s) and threads, but he's terribly biased.
I hope you are wrong.
