People on reddit are absolutely losing their minds over the lack of steam workshop support, but if Paradox wants stuff to be available to console users and all PC users, it's really the only option.

My concern is how it'll interact with Steam Proton on Linux, and just generally if their mods platform will be any good.

Bummer to hear it's not using Steam. After seeing Bethesda screw up modding with Creation Club, I have low hopes for Paradox's attempt, considering they already monetize the shit out of their games.

while our team has worked tirelessly to deliver the best experience possible, we have not achieved the benchmark we targeted.

In light of this, we still think for the long-term of the project, releasing now is the best way forward.

At least they admit the game is not finished yet. But sad another company pushes an unfinished game.

Holy hell the system specs has risen? Oof my newly built PC is already not fully recommended already. AAAAH
