Why Lukas should accept the offer how a publisher actually works

**xox** · May 6

yall dont know how a publisher works apparently... paradox is not gonna own the game, its just gonna publish it under their name for bigger reach, chill down

Publishers take a negotiated cut. They can assist if he wants to hire someone to help him. Hence we get more devs on the game

Mostly up to him. Publisher would help but if he doesn't want to give up money on his passion project or keep it cheap. He may price the game higher if a Publisher gets involved. He can do what he wants

In terms of the dlc worry: then dw Paradox makes DLC only for games from its own studios, not for 3rd-party games. To do this with AoH3, they first need to buy Lukasz (more precisely, his LukaszJakowskiGames) and make it a new internal studio

Okay. But I don't want to see the Paradox monopoly in grand strategy games. Łukasz does real things, he's making game only himselfs. This illustrate that only one guy can make a good games, which can compete with work of whole game developing company if he will choose path of integration with paradox I'm not blaming him, but I think it's wrong way.

A single dude can never break paradox monopoly in grand strategy games. And I don't think he wants to make a company.

Billa Gates, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos were a single dudes at the beginning as also. If @Łukasz Jakowski will work hard he will be better than Paradox. In my opinion, he's already better (depends on who prefers what)

Wow, I see I really didn't understand how a publisher works, that's way less worrying than it was my mind
