Their dlc's have always been overpriced, but there hasn't been one that actually broke the game in years.

Well... Eu4's newest expansion, "Leviathan", has actually broken the game, it is actually unplayable. And the worst part? Even if you don't have the DLC, you're still screwed because the free patch that came with the DLC also breaks the game.

Oh, and also this dlc is 20$.

So please shit on paradox interactive in this thread.

    I mean paradox development, idk what you mean. I just have more sympathy for employees than I do customers

      This dlc was made by a new team (literally their first project), so I do have sympathy for them, they probably needed more time to get used to the job, but I have no sympath for paradox interactive as a whole for not giving them more time to fix this shit.

        I would like to see their fans and customers word it that way! I dont know if complaining to the managers is usually good for the workers anyway though

          Yes, there is a lot of people on r/eu4 who are constantly shitalking the new team, and it does make me worried for their careers tbh, at least some people there also recognise that the higher ups of paradox are the root of the problem

      yeah, the production of it was ordered by the management that wants to increase some sales KPI, I don't get your point, the thread is about the mismanagement of the game itself, and is not trying to shit on workers

        No, its just about shitting on paradox interactive as a whole, not the management specifically. My point is to remind you to think of the workers, which OP didnt mention

          I understand your point, and also, you're right, think of the people that had to look at the broken shit and then say with a straight face "yeah, this is good enough, ship it" because they worked long hours, it was nearly the weekend and they wanted to wash their hands of this crap that management over-promised that it would be done much quicker than it could have been.
