Europa Universalis 5 erscheint, aber fertig ist es noch lange nicht. Im Review-Talk diskutieren wir mit Steinwallen, wer es jetzt kaufen sollte und wer nicht.

Len, Rowan, and Jon are at last granted the liberty to speak on their experiences with Europa Universalis 5, Paradox's latest and most ambitious grand strategy game. Is it actually good? Is it even possible to evaluate it in a that straightforward of a way at this point? And why has it turned Rowan into The Joker?

Besser ein spätes gamescom-Recap als gar keines: Maurice, Steinwallen und Ranger diskutieren ihre Highlights von Anno 117 und Europa Universalis 5 über Blood of Dawnwalker bis zu The Expanse: Osiris Reborn.

Fünf Spielen dürften im Herbst 2025 stürmische Zeiten bevorstehen. Die Verkaufszahlen sind dabei allerdings unsere geringste Sorge - mit zwei prominenten Ausnahmen. Mehr Infos zu tic tac findet ihr unter: https://www.tictac.com/de/de/ (Werbung)

Professor Kozlowski tackles the French Enlightenment with excerpts from Montesquieu and Rousseau. The first is an orderly, encyclopedic thinker trying to categorize and classify every element of political philosophy; the second may well be a proto-Anarchist masquerading as an Enlightenment mainstay. Really, what were we expecting from the French?Readings today come from Montesquieu's The Spirit of the Laws, as well as The Social Contract and "Discourse on the Origin of Inequality" by Rousseau.Additional readings include Voltaire's Candide and Moliere's Don Juan, as well as a casual suggestion that you should read some David Hume, (here's an especially representative collection). And of course, today's video game recommendation is Europa Universalis.

It's Three Moves Ahead Original Flavor as Len, Fraser, and Jon gather for a second panel discussion on the press hands-on for Europa Universalis 5.

Paradox macht keine Kompromisse mehr: Europa Universalis 5 soll noch komplexer werden als der kolossale Vorgänger. Kann das gelingen?

Algunos dirán que el 555 es el número de la bestia adolescente emo, pero en Café Fandango no hay ninguna duda que es el número del Hanson del Medium, que viene a vaticinar el gran episodio especial Hanson para el programa 1110 de Café Fandango. Pero como todavía falta, no te queda otra que escuchar a Gus que sigue paseando por Cyrodill cual semidios y a Seba que jugó al parenting non-simulator toda la semana. Sin lanzamientos (relevantes) avanzamos a las noticias donde en Australia te podés ganar una moto del infierno, el Killing Floor 3 finalmente tiene nueva fecha de lanzamiento, se anunciaron los nuevos integrantes del salón de la fama de videojuegos, los desarrolladores del Outer Wilds están haciendo otro juego (sorprendiendo a... alguien?) y el Europa Universalis fue anunciado con un modo para poder jugarlo lo menos posible. Cerramos con la Pregunta Fandango donde charlamos de los videojuegos más complejos que hemos visto.

Xbox Dominates PS5 Charts, Grand Strategy Returns, and Nostalgia Hits High Gear This week's gaming landscape sees intriguing shifts and anticipated returns, as discussed on the latest GameBurst Podcast. In a surprising turn, all of last month's best-selling titles on Sony's PS5 were published by rival Xbox, further blurring console battle lines. This trend continues with the news that another major Microsoft franchise, Gears of War, will make its debut on PlayStation later this year with a revamped edition of the original game.   Paradox Interactive has officially lifted the veil on 'Project Caesar', confirming widespread speculation that it is indeed Europa Universalis 5, heralding what the developers are calling a "new era for grand strategy." Meanwhile, Rockstar's GTA 6 trailer has shattered records, becoming the biggest video launch of all time and surpassing even Hollywood behemoths like Deadpool and Wolverine, despite a potential release pushed to 2026.   Subscribers to Xbox Game Pass can look forward to a robust May, with a fresh wave of titles including day-one releases such as Doom: The Dark Ages and Revenge of the Savage Planet. Fans of historical action have cause for celebration too, as the highly anticipated sequel to Ghost of Tsushima, titled Ghost of Yōtei, is set to launch on October 2, 2025, nearly five years after the original. Finally, a dose of 90s nostalgia is incoming with Crystal Dynamics' cult classic Gex and its two sequels being bundled for a multi-platform release on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC on June 16th. #gameburst

Erik Fossum fra PressFire gjester oss for å snakke om dataspillenes plass i den offentlige samtalen. Hvorfor har ikke spill mer dekning i den allmenne sfæren når over 60% av den voksne befolkningen spiller jevnlig? Hvilke konsekvenser får det når spillsamtalen skyves ut til nisjemedier? Dette er bare noen av spørsmålene vi tar opp i temadelen. Dessuten blir det bred skandinavisk dekning av nye spill, da vi har spilt både det norske Overvåkerne og det svenske Split Fiction.

Yannick Süß verdient seinen Lebensunterhalt mit Musik, allerdings nicht irgendwelcher, sondern mit Soundtracks für Videospiele. Das Portfolio, das er sich seit über zehn Jahren in der Branche aufgebaut hat, ist beeindruckend: SpellForce, Die Gilde, Europa Universalis, Crusader Kings. Seine musikalische Leidenschaft gilt dabei vor allem Spielen mit historischen Schauplätzen. Kurz vor dem Treffen mit Dom Schott hat Yannick Süß noch ganz frisch ein Großprojekt abgeschlossen: Die Komposition des Soundtracks für den neusten "Crusader Kings 3"-DLC namens "Roads to Power", für den er byzantinisch-mittelalterliche Chorgesänge erst recherchieren und dann von einem Professor einsingen ließ. In dieser Folge erzählt Yannick von dieser spannenden Arbeit, seinem unverhofft-überraschenden Weg in die Spielebranche und wie gut man als Komponist von Aufträgen eigentlich leben kann.

Cities Skylines 2? Miserabel gestartet und bis heute nicht für Konsolen erschienen. Life By You? Eingestampft und abgeschrieben. Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2? Fragt nicht. Was ist nur los bei Paradox Interactive? GameStar-Autor Reiner Hauser hat mit den Schweden gesprochen und diskutiert mit den Strategiespiel-Heroen Maurice Weber, Steinwallen und RangerArea über seine Erkenntnisse und die Probleme von Paradox.

This is a free preview of this month's Patreon episode. Check out the extended version at Patreon.com/3ma! Len, Lambert, and FatherLorris continue their ongoing beef with the Holy See while discussing Europa Universalis 5 dev diaries primarily focused on warfare. We're not even doing jokes about how long these are anymore. That's so early 2024. It's just expected at this point. This is our lives now.

Len, Lorris, and Lambert sat down with JayBean, the creator of the popular Anbennar fantasy total conversion mods for Europa Universalis 4, Crusader Kings 3, and Victoria 3. We asked him what he's most excited about from what we've seen of EU5 so far, what changes he might make to the mod with these new systems, and how Paradox Tinto can better support the modding community.

This is a preview of this month's Patreon episode. Check out the extended version at Patreon.com/3ma! Join Len, FatherLorris, and Lord Lambert as we get the NoCB Cast band back together to talk for 3.5 hours about Paradox Tinto's "Project Caesar," which is probably Europa Universalis 5. Okay, let's be real: it's definitely Europa Universalis 5. We break down the first four dev diaries, everything Johan has ever said about the project on the forums, and talk a bit about the year 1337 – which was not confirmed as the new start date when we recorded this, but has been at this point. So we nailed it. We're very smart. Please clap.

It's the final episode of Season 6! (But don't worry, I already have great stuff planned for Season 7!) This time, Eivind Vetlesen, designer of Europa Universalis: The Price of Power, comes by to talk about designing a game that is true to both history and to the video game from Paradox.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Morality is Accidental & Self-Congratulatory, published by ymeskhout on May 29, 2023 on LessWrong. The Selfish Gene remains one of my favorite books of all time and although published in 1976 it remains a compelling and insightful introduction to the brute mechanics of natural selection. Richard Dawkins later acknowledged that his book's title may give a misleading impression of its thesis, erroneously ascribing conscious motivations or agentic properties to non-sentient strands of DNA. The core argument is dreadfully simple: genes (as opposed to organisms or species) are the primary unit of natural selection, and if you leave the primordial soup brewing for a while, the only genes that can remain are the ones with a higher proclivity towards replication than their neighbors. “Selfish” genes therefore are not cunning strategists or followers of some manifest destiny, but rather simply the accidental consequence of natural selection favoring their propagation. Nothing more. Dawkins is responsible for coining the word ‘meme' in the book to describe how the same principles behind gene replication can apply to ideas replicating. I thought about this when I read WoodFromEden's post about the origin of patriarchy. Their explanation for why male dominance persisted historically for so long is elegantly tidy: Men make war. Or rather, groups of men make war. The groups that were good at making war remained. The groups that were less good at making war perished. That way, human history is a history of successful male military cooperation. Groups with weak male bonding were defeated by groups where men cooperated better. Here too, there is no dirigible trajectory mapped out ahead of time. Cultural values which valorize physical male violence and facilitate its coordination at scale will become the dominant paradigm purely as a result of the circumstances' ruthless logic. Any deviation from this set of values would lead your tribe towards extinction, which accidentally also meant your bards wouldn't be around to write songs and poems extolling the virtues of sex equality. At least not until there have been an extensive change in circumstance. This “security dilemma” may have been borne out of petty squabbles over hunting grounds in the Serengeti but its ramifications persisted throughout history. Military service today may be seen as a low-status and distasteful profession — quite literally grunt work — but it used to be venerated deeply as a path to honor and a cornerstone of civic duty. This philosophy is epitomized by the recurring and central portrayal of military men in stories from a long time ago (Homeric heroes of ancient Greece, Genghis Khan, Jedi knights, etc.), their deeds forming the backbone of societal narratives and cultural mythologies. The historian Bret Deveraux analyzed the grand strategy video game Europa Universalis 4 to illustrate the war-hungry reality of the late medieval period: Military power requires revenue and manpower (along with staying technologically competitive) and both come from the same source: the land. While a player can develop existing provinces, taking land in war is far cheaper and faster. The game represents this through both developing old land and seizing new land requiring similar resources [but compared to incorporating newly conquered land, development is about 4x as expensive while providing only marginal improvements]. That may seem like the developer has placed their thumb a bit unfairly on the scale, but, as Azar Gat notes in War in Human Civilization (2006) for pre-industrial societies that is a historically correct thumb on the scale. Until the industrial revolution, nearly all of the energy used in production came out of agriculture one way or another; improves in irrigation, tax collection and farming methods might improve...

It's an all-star panel as Len and Mike Williams are joined by Mohawk Games' and Idle Thumbs' own Soren Johnson and Paradox Tinto's Johan Andersson to chip away at a tricky target: the different design goals between a more "Board Gamey" strategy game like Civilization and the "Simulationist" breed exemplified by Europa Universalis. We discuss what we like and don't like about each one, who the audiences are for each, and how to navigate the significant overlap in those audiences. In the end, maybe it's not as adversarial after all...

We've got a full house this week with Rich, Amanda, Aaron, Jason, and Chris O'Regan from The Sausage Factory/Cane & Rinse as they talk about the PSVR 2 release.
