Paradox Interactive (often shortened to Paradox) is a Swedish vidya gaem and tabletop publisher headquartered in Stockholm (sound familiar?) that is mainly known for 4X/Grand strategy games and lots of expensive DLC. They are relevant to /tg/ for two reasons: one, they make vidya many a fa/tg/uy likes, and two, they've owned White Wolf and Onyx Path since 2015 and therefore are now stewarding their various TTRPG lines. Which turned out to be sorely needed given the "Chechnya was a vampire pysop" controversy.
As far as AAA video game companies go, a love-hate relationship exists for the board, as while their absurd aggregate DLC costs are definitely fishing for whales and they've made questionable business decisions, they have a precedent of being chill with fan content, with them even supporting the TTS gang's WOD series after Geedubs went nuclear on fan animation.
