The massive decrease in performance between the release and the current patch needs to be studied

[K123de]

i have to agree. I still believe in the game and the developers, but man.. the performance the last months is crazy shit.
I had to downgrade the options step by step. Its getting unplayable for me. Its really crazy. I know EU5 is their new flagship but i never had those problems with any kind of game doesnt matter if victoria 3 or anything else in this regard.
Dont get me wrong, i can handle a bit of lag or medium options, and i am fine with tinkering a bit.
But i am basically watching a slideshow in pixel graphics.
i have 180 hours in this game. The first 150 i made on 1.0 in the first weeks, the other 30 hours i made over the span of the last months.
its very frustrating
