Mm-hmm.

This game originally was in development by Paradox Games.

They sort of announced that they were working on it, what the rough plot would be.

And then they threw up their little hands and they said, we give up, but we're giving it to the Chinese room and they're going to finish the game.

And there isn't that effort at granularity.

And by contrast, the classic selling point for Paradox Games is an accurate one-to-one world map at year start in which every state that existed in that year is playable.

And so there is a degree to which Paradox games have their historical vision taken much more seriously by the player base.

They put a lot more effort, I will say, as developers into backing that up with a significant degree of research.

And this is a genre that has become very popular.

And that informs their vision.

And so here you have this piece of popular culture that is structured in a way to be very reassuring to the player that the effort has gone into making something that is grounded in reality as much as it is still a game.

And to be fair, looking at the sort of the whole sequence of Paradox games that I've discussed, they often do a pretty good job.

A lot of people are doing that.

Tantalus Media have announced Cities Skylines Expanded Edition, published by Paradox Interactive for the Nintendo Switch 2, containing 10 DLCs, many mission features, bigger maps, keyboard and music support, better performance and visuals.

and it's coming out on the 28th of October for £41.49.

If Switch 1 owners upgrade before the 28th of April, they can receive a reduced price of £12.30. Now, this is an interesting one, because I think you played this, Anton, and I think you were disgusted with the original performance on the Switch, if memory serves me right.

Devil's Night uses the revised edition of Demon the Fallen with a few limited house rules.
