I'm seriously considering getting it at or near launch (of course I'm willing to wait at least a little bit to hear if it works, is good, etc.) but not if it's going to be obnoxious and woke. I know they were at least talking about "heterosexuality not being the default" or whatever, which definitely isn't a good sign.
What have you guys heard?
Personally I'm not sure whether it was just Rock Paper Shotgun making things up or Paradox initially actually preparing to scrap DV, but reversing course when they saw the torrent of outrage from their fanbase. Either way, definitely a positive development.
I will say that if it's the latter case, that bodes well for Paradox learning from the mistakes it made with Imperator. Which would be another pleasant surprise.
