Stellaris is making some really radical changes in order to balance the game. It really is like the game itself is getting Thanos Snapped, indeed.

I wonder what the new EU4 expansion will be called. My guess is something to do with Southeast Asia and religion, since those are the two areas of the game this expansion seems to concern

I read like two million words of ASOIAF fanfiction over the past two months. My soul is so ready for this.

Again? The game is already unrecognisable from release.

Considering that game of thrones mod for CK2 was considered as one of the best CK2 mods, CK3's one will probably be great.

Has anyone here played HOI4 with Battle for the Bosporus much? I'm considering getting it along with La Resistance but I don't know if it's worth it yet.

I hope it's a nod to us getting things like intel, spies, sabotage, stoking dissent amongst the enemy populace, fomenting uprisings and revolution, etc. Contrariwise, it'd be great to have the ability to have various policy and building options to create something akin to the Stasi, that watches every move that your own population makes.

I don't have either, but I plan on getting BFtB. From what I've seen and heard it's pretty good.

Honestly Intelligence and Espionage have been things I've wanted from the very beginning so I'm glad to see this.
Maybe also now I'll be able to see enemy ship designs and fleet makeups without having to use construction ships as sacrificial spies.

Stellaris is so much fun when the galaxy splits itself between two federations that are hostile to each other and constantly warring with each other, and my empire is neutral and just takes in the refugees from the inevitable genocide that results.
