Query regarding the Content Creator Pack: Medieval Monuments

[Sanny]

I read on the PDX Forum that these monuments are not pre-built on any start date, so will the AI actually build them or is every one left to the player? I was looking forward to seeing the map decorated with all the new monuments but that doesn't seem to be the case. Which puts me off from purchasing it.

This is what i was wondering, if just to pretty the map up. However, after looking at it,theres only 20 Monuments. If it was every special bldg. in the game i wouldnt hesitate.

At only 20, i smell a cash-grab. Something along the lines of every few months they'll release another dlc until they've covered them all. Sounds like Paradox to me.

They're 20 new special buildings; none of them existed before the DLC. You seem to have mistake the DLC for being purely cosmetic, but it does have a small amount of associated gameplay content. So no, your theory isn't happening.

The ones that already existed at a given start date will already be constructed on game start; the others will need to be built as the game progresses. The AI is capable of building them, but whether or not it actually will in a specific case depends on a huge variety of factors.

Thanx for the clarity. I did notice only 4 wont be pre-built before their time. Ive already bought it.

My scepticism arises from 5 yrs of watching PDX's dlc practices.
It seems Trinex saw my post & ignored it. Thats curious.

Your post isn’t the kind that is appropriate to respond to for a corporate account. It’s a bad look to get into petty arguments over the internet regarding “cash grabs.” Either way, paradox answered OP’s question appropriately, there was no need to respond to yours regardless.

Who said anything about an argument? Just lookin for clarity. Pay attention

Thanks for the answer, appreciate the Dev response. Seems the info I read on the forums originally wasn't accurate. Happy to invest in the DLC in this case :)
