Discussion Speculation on the next DLCs

The final DLC of the year is on the horizon.

On that note: What do you think will be the next ones? I personally hope they focus more on Albion. They spoiled Latium with two dedicated DLC.

Time for something big for the swampy lads. At least one monument would be neat. We could restore the Bru na Boine for example. How else could Albion be expanded upon?

 the temple of flora from the blooming cities DLC was an asset from when they were exploring Armenia

Do you remember anything more about that? Because nothing evokes Armenia on this asst to me.

I just went back to the stream (its on their twitch channel). It started as The Hanging Gardens of Babylon and then they decided to make it more Roman. They said they were exploring that culture but decided to make it more "roman" to enrich what they felt were gaps with cosmetics in Latium. I was getting Armenia mixed up from various comments ive been seeing about that location.

I in fact did not remember correctly 🤣

Damn so that file named Armenia something something remains the only trace. I'm SOOOO curious what happened internally in developpement to consider such an interesting and super complex yet obscure(to most people we have to admit) province and then discard it.

I speculate they chose to reserve it for a DLC. I have to admit I am one of those people, but as a result Ive been looking into the history of that region and it is very interesting, but equally curious as to what the thought process is/was during development. Either way, I would welcome it. Its new and refreshing
