I gave them a thumb up. Sorry.
They've been talking about getting into mobile for several years now, they just couldn't decide on a strategy of how to do it.
One thing to keep in mind about public companies is that if you have enough growth and enough vision generally leave you alone.
It's also not impossible to get a board of directors that actually gives a shit.
Arent they the Europa Universalis and Crusader kings devs?
Loved the King Arthur series. Hate there DLC policies.
I pretty much see it as a subscription service. $15 every 6 months or so for new features and continued support.I was going to buy Europa Universalis 4 (after watching my friend play it on hiw YT channel) but I couldn't get my head around what the hell the DLC was all about and the pricing of the DLC was pretty hilarious so I thought screw that.
ThisNot sure this is a good idea.

IT'S TAKING TOO LONG, REMEBER WHEN IT WAS SUPPOSED TO RELEASE IN Q2 2015.
I do and I'm still hyped, so many dev diaries.
Well if Stellaris is as good as it seems to be, that will be one hell of a peak before the fall.

DLC is all optional btw, no need to get it. The patches bring new features already, so you can just buy the vanilla game and play that.

Swedish article, where Fredrik Wester is saying they they're targeting "aggresive growth", more resources for console games, and to seriously enter mobile gaming.
Sounds good, right?
Oh crap no. One of the last few great pc publishers. This is going to be terrible. Expect the next crusader kings to be a cow clicker on ipad, and europa universalis: shit just got real, on rails third person shooter ps4 exclusive.
This breaks my heart.
I'm sure that's also what ActiVision and Electronic Arts founders said to themselves and their employees, back when they were artist-led game studios. It just doesn't work that way, because shareholders want high returns for new companies.
Not sure this is a good idea.
In an article today in the Swedish business news paper Dagens Industri, I was interviewed together with our Chairman of the Board Håkan Sjunnesson regarding "the state of the business". We talked about the company's excellent financial and operating performance in 2015 and discussed future strategies of the company including exploring conditions for a potential IPO in 2016. Here is a link to the article (in Swedish) http://digital.di.se/artikel/paradox-interactive-gar-till-borsen
From here on - until any further steps are taken in the process - we will communicate any corporate communication in Swedish to ensure we adhere to current laws and regulations. Communication around our games will remain the same as always. Game plans and game development will be business as usual.
We also want to clarify that the principal shareholders (like myself and long time owners Spiltan Investment) in Paradox will remain principal shareholders and that only a small part of the company is in question for any future plans.

If you could have the CK2 experience - (no compromises) with a functional User interface/input on a tablet. U want?

That sounds ambitious
It sounds impossible without changing the design of the game. Paradox struggles with interfaces enough on M&KB.
