opinions about the jade dragon dlc for ck2

[SnoWolf]

lets talk about the jade dragon dlc, personaly i think the idea is not bad but i would have perfered if they just added china

[Black_Rat]

Adding india to the map already caused a large performance hit for people without better quality computers, adding china would cause so much lag 1/2 of current players would lag out.

[Edge]

I think they should remove India. Nothing ever happens there.

i would be happy even if they just added the most western part of hina

Should've done a DLC more like way of life/conclave where it makes the systems they've already got a bit different rather than adding something I'll basically never use.

A game rule to remove that bit of the map would be a good way to please everybody.

Modders have already made entirely new maps before (GoT mod for example), so presumably it's already possible.

I agree that India was a mistake. China too. A bridge too far.
They'd better improve the game mechanics with a deeper medieval political system, more immersive feudal life, naval battles ... and much more.
IMHO...

Tianxia is literally a mod that does just that: expands as far as Korea and the northwestern islands of Oceana

I generally agree, but the thing about naval battles is it would need quite a bit of rebalancing or else you'd just get shredded by vikings and trade republics every time

I'm ok with the DLC but slightly sad that Paradox caved in to all the performance complaints. I personally never had any trouble running RoI.

They are opening up the Tibeten plateau in the patch along side Jade Dragon. So they are making India more accessable.

Instead of all this DLC, they should just dedicate a couple engineers to fixing performance. Get a better JSON parser in there, etc. But I guess that doesn't make them any $$$.

Performance is better than it has ever been. I'm not sure what you're running it on, but I don't remember it being any faster than it is now.

Not too keen on it myself. I wonder what that dlc can possibly add to a player who is focusing on western realms and sticking to the crusade theme.

The silk road thing is fine and I guess being able to interact with Eastern kingdoms when you are in the Holy Land may be somewhat appealling but it doesn't sound very practical.

People have been asking for China for quite some time and IMO they should have given them an entire game (like Sengoku but Chinese) and left CK2 alone. The way they are going about this the people who really wanted China in are going to be disappointed and the ones who were more than satisfied with the Horse Lords being in the game won't care much for an Empire that they will never interact with anyway.
