      @OneBiasedOpinion 3 месяца назад +2

      Given the prices of their DLCs, “one of the good ones” is very subjective. But yeah, this was gonna turn me off ever purchasing anything from them ever again if it was even remotely true.

    • @jamieboyer3398

      ​@Nartanek the micro transactions in DD2 can be ignored entirely.

    Sweet relief. Sweet, sweet relief. I was legitimately dying inside, I'd lost hope. To realise that this was a joke was a massive relief, I was absolutely perplexed why you were so onboard with these changes. I am utterly glad that this is a joke. After two years of having to defend Paradox's DLC model to my friends, I thought it was all for nothing. This was a sick joke (I'm laughing though). The worst part is, when I saw 'Enhanced Democracy', my first thought was a new streaming option so you can get twitch chat and such to vote on things for your empire, and I was genuinly pleased. After hearing what the actual 'plan' was, I sunk further, in utter disbelief that Paradox would actually go political like that. I'm going to bed, it's been a night and a half. Thanks for scaring the crap out of me Montu. :D
