    It’s a paradox game, with awful dlc practices. I have wanted to play an EU(3,4,5,etc) game for a long time, but never tried because of the financial model. I’m not sure if the high seas even has a version, because I almost don’t never sail around, if you know what I mean.

    The game looks promising, but probably a bit too complex for me. I remember starting a Crusader Kings 2 game ages ago, never managed to unify Ireland.

    Nope. I tried 3 or 4 years ago and I felt lost the entire time. I watched many videos on how to play it, still felt lost.

    I suppose I just am not smart enough for this series.

    Nope. Watched a few videos on it and read a few reviews that all said it had „great potential“, which in the context of Paradox just means the base game’s fun for a few hours before you discover the game’s mile wide and inch deep and to go any deeper you’ll have to pay >100€ for DLCs once they release in a few months

      They have an enormous amount of flavor in EUV apparently in order to combat the “mile wide and inch deep” problem that Paradox GSGs tend to have. So that’s not the fear I have. I just am afraid whether the game is actually fun to play.

    These games are way too complex for me.

    I’ve been playing The Planet Crafter which is perfect for me after setting lower difficulty.

    Eventually, if the opportunity presents itself. Not going to buy it though. The paradox dlc saga isn’t for my wallet.

    From what I’ve heard, performance is dogshit and it frequently crashes. I’ll give it six months of post-launch performance patches at least before I bother touching it.
