Hello gamers.

I bring you momentous news today. My competitor,  ‪@LemonCake101‬   has LOST the sub race to 25K subs, making me the winner of course. First of all, thanks for 25K subs. Second of all, I'm sure you're all curious what the punishment is for failure.

We had bet neither money, nor reputation nor really anything on this competition BUT we both promised that whoever lost would do the unthinkable.

The terrible, awful, horrible punishment for the loser of this sub-race... is to DEPICT ONESELF AS A SOYJAK! My citrus-based baked good opponent went the extra mile and depicted himself as a Virgin as well. Good sportsmanship is very poggers.

Anyway, now that I've won, go subscribe to  ‪@LemonCake101‬   and check out his content. He's been an absolute pleasure to work with, and I think he's quickly become one of my favorite Paradox YouTubers. Also check out my videos.

To see the full images. Join my Discord and check out the stream announcements section (that's right, I'm baiting you to join my discord LUL):  https://discord.gg/xaeXHABhVY 

Thanks for reading.

Hello gamers.

So, Roads to Power just released like 10 minutes ago (as of writing this sentence). Very exciting stuff, very cool. If you haven't made up your mind about buying the DLC, I've had a review up for about a day now, and I think it can help you.

If you don't wanna read, basically this DLC rocks, and I'm not paid to say that, I just really like it. I'm going to be streaming today in about 50 minutes, so if you wanna get some live gameplay, come join the stream. Last stream, we did Roman Empire stuff, this stream, we'll do some landless stuff (but I'm still using the Hellenic Roman World Conquest thumbnail for the CLICKBAITTTTT)

Looking forward to seeing you there, thanks!

Hello Gamers,

I don't often make community posts, mostly out of laziness as opposed to their lack of enjoyment for me, but I've got a special one for you today:

Starting when this post goes live (should be August 15th) I'll be engaging in a SUB RACE with lauded baked-good  ‪@LemonCake101‬ , some EU4 guy.

Our rivalry began when we both saw that the famed GIGACHAD had become an integral part of our branding, and so, it is of vital importance that the best GIGACHAD USER be identified. Thus, we're racing to 25,000 subscribers. Whoever gets there first wins the race.

The prize is a surprise, but rest assured, my honor, my pride, and maybe even my very LIFE are at stake, so you have to sub.

Also, check out my next Vic 3 video, premiering in like, 4 hours:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRyBE... 

SUBSCRIBE!

The Mega-Campaign is continuing on from CK3 at this point. I did some light modding to fix up the EU4 borders and change some governments and cultures around, but beyond that, it's not too different. I was going to mod in some custom missions, and with more time I totally could have, but I didn't want to delay the mega-campaign a ton.

If you want to play along, head over to the steam workshop  https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3235579207 

This is a mod that is essentially just my CK3 save, with some border changes and government changes that will match what I'm playing on stream here:  https://youtube.com/live/J-i_F90ohPU?feature=share 

Don't miss out! EU4 is tons of fun!

Sup y'all,

Ramadan is almost over, which means I intend to get back to more consistent streams. I tried to stream relatively consistently this Ramadan, but man, fasting is draining. Ramadan ends this Tuesday, and that's when this schedule will kick in fully. For Monday (today) and Tuesday (tomorrow) I may do a stream if the fasting isn't getting to me too hard.

I've put together a little stream schedule which I'm going to do my best to stick to. There's an image below summarizing it, but I'm putting a little explanation of each stream's content below in text.

Monday: CK3 Speedruns - I'll check the speedrun leaderboards, and go get some records, or make some creative new categories. We may also do speedrun routing on these days as well.

Tuesday: CK3 Casual Play - Just going to play for some fun. This is just stuff like whatever interesting runs I feel like doing, or suggestions from chat.

Wednesday: CK3 Modding - This will be either a mod spotlight type stream, where we play a mod and evaluate it, or a day where I work on a mod in VSCode.

Thursday: BREAK

Friday: Variety - For the time being, this will be a special Crusader Kings themed Elden Ring challenge run I've concocted which I'll reveal more details about on Friday. Variety will be Elden Ring for the foreseeable future, but I'll play other games on variety day based on what the community wants, and what I feel like playing (with the latter taking precedent in most cases).

Saturday: Dungeons and Dragons with Sirigath, Herby and Mia - I streamed some Dungeons and Dragons on Twitch a while back, but because stuff came up for me, and then for my co-streamers as well, we had to put it off. Things have cleared up now, so starting next Satruday, DnD is back on the table. DND WILL EXCLUSIVELY BE ON TWITCH.

Sunday: YouTube Video OR Bonus Stream- I'm returning to the one a week YouTube video schedule because I find it to be a good balance between quality and quantity. There'll be no stream this day, but there'll be a premiere for the video, and I'll be in chat for it, and sometimes a bonus stream if a video just isn't ready, or I have a longer-term project I'm working on.

Streams will generally be at least 4 hours, but not more than 12 hours. Below is an image of the stream schedule itself, and a handful of thumbnails for the streams so you can keep an eye out for them.

Everything except for DnD will be streamed on both Twitch, and YouTube. Feel free to jump around between the two platforms to avoid ads, or just pick whichever one you prefer. DnD is exclusive to Twitch.

Looking forward to seeing you in chat.

Thank you for your time!

Little Preview for the next video for y'all. I've been absolutely loving After the End, which if you know me, means it must be really good because I'm normally VERY harsh on total conversion mods. After the End has some incredible new mechanics and great systems that make it very much so worth playing.

Looking forward to showing the next Gigachad Story to y'all.

Really happy announcement here to make:

I got offered CK3 Legends of the Dead early access (which if you're in my Discord, you already know) and because of that, I'll be able to play it as much as I want in early access! POG

To be totally frank, I was not expecting to get early access, so I've put other projects on hold to play as much as possible. I should be able to put out the sequel to the Alans, since that video is already almost done, but Murchad's story, and all Vic 3 content, is taking a hiatus while I've got early access.

I'll of course be streaming the early access stuff once the embargo is up, and I'll do multi-streams here on YouTube and Twitch so I can reach the largest audience possible with it.

I do have one question for you guys real quick: I'm going to be making 2 GIGACHAD stories for Legends of the Dead that will release once the embargo is up. My question is which one below would interest you more, in terms of a first release. Do keep in mind that both are coming, but which do you wanna see first? 

Saint Attila of the Holy Hunnic Empire

Pharaoh-Prophet Ivar "The Boneless" of Israel

Yo, Happy Valentine’s Day chat. Couple announcements:

First off, thanks for the support with the recent GIGACHAD stories and the all achievement guide. It was a pleasure making content for you again, and your comments are appreciated! Alan Story part 2 coming soon!

Second,  ‪@TheSocialStreamers‬  is doing a return to Imperator event with his community on the 17th. I’m not formally part of it, but I wanna participate as a recent Imperator convert so I’ll have a video ready for that day. Stay tuned.

Thirdly, the imperator event coincides with my first YouTube DnD event, the details of which will be announced later, but basically, I’m hosting a dungeons and dragons game with some other streamers on the 17th, and every subsequent Saturday.

Fourth, I’ve been thinking about the CK3 all achievements segmented speedruns, and I tried a few a while ago but quite frankly, after all the energy I put into all achievements, I’m done for a while lol. I’m sure it’ll come back eventually. For now, it’s off the table.

Finally, it is Valentine’s Day: a day of love and loved ones. Some of you are likely aware of my toxic relationship with Victoria… specifically, Victoria the Third: my siren. I have decided to look at Victoria 3 again, and played a short campaign as Mexico. I did enjoy it a bit, and I’ll be turning it into a GIGACHAD Story, but since I’ve got a lot on my plate content-wise right now, that video is at least a week away. Just know that Vic 3 is back on the menu right now. How long with that last? Time will tell.

That’s all. TL;DR: DnD content, Imperator content, Vic3 content. Happy Valentine’s Day.

EDIT: Just got invited to the server for the Return to Imperator event! Looks like I am actually formally part of it! Hell yeah boys! By the way, if we can get Imperator to 100K concurrent players, I have it on good authority via a tweet between Laith and some Pdx dev or something that we can see Imperator's return! SO PLEASE GOD PLAY THE GAME ON THE 17TH!!!
