Still really excited but wish it also had created maps with star(t) dates as well as the procedural generation they went with.

Sweet! Paradox is killing it lately.
Oh God, now you got me all stupidly excited for this.

The only thing I'm not a big fan of is ship designing. Easily my least favorite part of any space strategy game.

The masters attempting a game in my favourite setting? Yes please.
Game looks great so far. Don't know if I should wait until after it comes out to get a more polished experience, though.
How did that game turn out, anyway? I remember being really interested in it and I guess it released without much fanfare and I missed it.

DAMN that trailer. This shit goes number one on my steam wishlist.
Eeehhh they always did

Fuck yeah they always did!
That trailer was awesome. I have 100% faith in Paradox to give us a game that'll remain relevant and packed with content for years to come.

You can form federations and have your polity be elected president. Basically a procedural HRE

This sounds amazing. I really hope Paradox can pull it off, though my gut tells me it will be a little barebones until some CK2-styled DLC can flesh out existing content.
Crossing my fingers.
They're not Firaxis. CK2 & EU4 had plenty of content at launch.

LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
And were surprisingly playable! Sure, there were some bugs still, but nothing major or game breaking. Pretty much marked the turnaround point for Paradox's former reputation of launching buggy, unpolished products.

The game sounds super ambitious. Hopefully they can get somewhere close to what they are aiming for
and not only after 2 years of expansions.

Ok this sounds awesome.
Sounds ambitious, could potentially be my dream space game.
I used Arumba's you tube guides.
You just have to spend time. Id say start with EU4 too as ivd found it much easier to learn.
Thanks.
Alternatively (or in addition if you really need it) you can use http://lparchive.org/ for text based guides.
This is a very interesting preview. It was a good read. I'm quite interested in the game, but I want to see it in action. After Beyond Earth, I'm a bit wary about the switch from historical setting to SF settings. But if it turns out well, it could be fantastic.

Well this sounds incredible. My friend keeps trying to get me to play Europa Universalis, but I don't really like historical focused games, and it's been preventing me from playing all the other grand strategy games. But this is actually perfect for me.
Gonna turn my culture into intergalactic gods, going round the universe and uplifting pre-space races. That better be possible.

No date has been announced yet. The initial (and impromptu) Steam store page indicated February 2016, but doubt remains as to how much of a placeholder that may (or may not) have been.

Still wish Project Augustus had been something set around ancient Rome, but reading that RPS preview.. fuck this sounds awesome.
I think it's probably accurate. The RPS article days the game is near feature complete and in late alpha.

God that sounds awesome.
I'm just discovering Paradox games, my only problem would be that they're eating all my free time (and sleep time too)...
I started with EU IV last week.
Read the wiki, and did a game on easy with France. After 40 hours, I'm nearing the end, and I think I gained a good grasp on the game mechanisms, while really enjoying this first walkthrough.
Be prepared to spend a lot of time with the game though.

Somehow completely missed this article. Sounding sensational!
God, that RPS preview makes it sound INCREDIBLY ambicious, or at least filled with features that sound DLC-like, like AI becoming sentient and turning into a faction in late-game. I'm trying to keep my hype from rising too much, but it's getting pretty hard.
Anyway, in Paradox we trust!

It does sound too good to be true.
But if you just look back to the complexities of previous Paradox games.
I believe they can pull everything off.

That trailer was very weird: cool CGI but crap direction.
Bit late now but just wanted to say thanks for the link, very helpful!
