Reminder that SteIIaris has its own general and discussion of the game doesn't go here. Thank you.

We don't have an official steam or discord group. If anyone posts in the thread about any "official" or not steam or discord groups, promising MP or not, be sure it's a shitposter group known for organizing raids and shitposting in the thread. They are known for false-flagging.
Report and ignore it.

How fares your empire, /gsg/?

This day in history, June 22th:
1893 – The Royal Navy battleship HMS Camperdown accidentally rams the British Mediterranean Fleet flagship HMS Victoria which sinks taking 358 crew with her, including the fleet's commander, Vice-Admiral Sir George Tryon.
1898 – Spanish–American War: United States Marines land in Cuba.
1940 – France is forced to sign the Second Compiègne armistice with Germany.
1941 – Nazi Germany invades the Soviet Union in Operation Barbarossa.

all victoria 3 needs is

1. ability to convert simple rgo's, like from fruit to cattle, fish in shores, lumber in forests, etc... perhaps even multiple rgo's per province. also some products could be produced from different goods (clothes from both cotton and/or wool)
2. smoother map and user interface
3. new combat system with variable/less attrition, less casualties for both sides and less randomness factor

4. religion system, so that catholics can feel better under a fellow christian country than under a muslim country
5. better "assimilation" and internal migration system
6. reformed economy system, countries having millions of pounds in their reserves makes 0 sense. make it easier for countries to get into debt, but do not punish them too much for it. will also make interesting scenarios during financial meltdowns

7. great power council that solves crisis and/or decides the fate of other countries.
8. reformed alliance system. right now it feels very random at times. also do not let sphere leaders to directly join sphereling wars with other minors. instead they should only give them money/equipment and volunteers and only interverne by asking permission from the council. can you imagine russia sending thousands of troops into serbia to defend their ottoman sphereling?
9. less punishment for being a minor country. otherwise, you just force everyone to spam prestige techs. more factors for country rating, like population, income and technology

10. trade agreements, embargoes, naval blockades
11. reformed rebellion system. no more than 2 rebellions can be active at any time. rebellions should be less likely to happen, with major protests and strikes being more common instead, but when they happen it means that they are ready and confident about beating you. other countries could fund such traitors if it's in their interests.
12. more organized general system, generals should be both less useless and less op and can be fired

Mummy thinks I'm weird for listening to such songs but I always am sure to deliver her daily dose of redpill and explain how the DIRTY KIKES have infected music and are mindcontrolling all the white people into racemixing (which is bad by the way because it changes skin color). Also, fuck degeneracy! Why can't I just find a girl that is virgin like me, why are they all whores :( goddamn kikes

>I have that problem with the "home of the mormons" stuff while Utah is still colonial
Couldn't you make an event to pop up every 5 years or so that checks if Utah is a proper state, and if it is and doesn't have that modifier it reapplies it?
Alternatively you could make it a decision. When Utah becomes a state you have a decision to reapply the modifier; I bet you can flavour it to not look too much like a workaround to a game bug too.

I'm not sure what the government was after the revolution, I remember seeing some stuff about it in Budapest but I forgot.

Hey HPM, I have an issue with the way the Oriental Crisis works out. Since GPs intervening against Egypt start their own separate wars, their intervention doesn't end if Egypt forces the Ottomans into white peace. This isn't the case for any GPs who are intervening for the Egyptians against the Ottomans, and so what ends up happening if Egypt forces white peace with foreign help is that they are left on their own against Britain or whatever, who wants them to return their cores to the Ottomans, despite the fact that the Ottomans agreed to give up that land to the Egyptians in the actual crisis war

Not really, but I can take a look. Do keep in mind that Edirne can be far away from the ocean and the province can still have sea access, names are usually the ones of the most important city in the area rather than port cities.

hoi4 was originally just a risk style game johan dreamed up for internal office play during breaks and employee events
podcat went to freddy and convinced him it was a fully fleshed out game ready for sale
johan despises dan for this reason

Johan is an Autist.

He does not like how Paradox is dealing with their games. He doesn't like the DLC policy, he doesn't like the casualization, he doesn't like the SWEDEN YES-tier intrusions to his historical simulators.
And yes, he privately laments on not making the games more like simulators and less like platforms for easy fun and DLC.
He's a sub-par male specimen due to his physical health, but he likes his games. He just can't do anything but go with the company's flow, he is silenced and basically acts as a lunch-time bug-tester and balancer, a face of Paradox PR and a testament to past age of Paradox GS games.
He still occasionally plays EU2 and his earlier games, that is more we can say about the newer, more 'progressive' employees at the company.

Johan is an Autist.

He was the creative designer on Stellaris, nothing more. He had a more prominent role in EU4 as the lead for Game Design, but was heavily constrained by release schedule and Wester (CEO) influencing the development to create a more profitable platform for DLC and easy fun. Johan had an even bigger role in the development of CK2 as it's Producer for it's initial development back in 2012, and less constrained by a still transient Wester who had not discovered the perfect formula for profit. CK2, at the time, was an 'okay' game that many people could have seen being improved to be better than CK1, and more.
CK2's DLC was not developed in any way by Johan, and look at the game now.
Games previous to CK2 are either acceptable or more high up there in autistry, while Paradox was still a small (sub-40 employees) yet growing company and Johan still had a voice that was listened to.

Johan is an Autist.
