Comment on The Way Forward, an update from the team behind Cities: Skylines
TipRing@lemmy.world 8 months agoI’m not convinced Paradox knows what they are doing as publisher. Millenia was similarly pushed out the door before it was ready (though in a better state than Cities: Skylines 2). And both games pushed out the door in the last week of the quarter in a transparent effort to boost their earnings. The shortsightedness of the publisher is now impacting their reputation in ways that will be hard to recover. I no longer consider buying Paradox published titles until they are at least a year old or have at least a few months of reviews showing they are solid (like AoW4).

I feel like maybe Paradox expanded too much too fast.

Smells like stock-price-driven short-term decisions.
