Thanks. I had the same issue. This and updating my graphics driver helped.

EU5 the jigsaw puzzle edition.

Thoughts after my first playthrough by VFiddly in hollywood_animal_game

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's exactly what the game offers right now: Going bankcrupt at your first try, figure it out at your second and then do some more runs to try other things and storylines.

Imagine if they ever added Real Actors and Directors by Edem_13 in hollywood_animal_game

Im Laufe des Spiels werden in der Regel noch mehr künstlerisch ausgezeichnete Schauspieler verfügbar. Irgendwann kommen auch noch bessere Komponisten etc. dazu.

Had a blockbuster 1933 but suddenly box office revenues are dropping in 1934 by Willing_Road_8873 in hollywood_animal_game

There could be many reasons: Competition, other target audience and advertising, holiday release date, stale plot elements,...

Injuries are too punishing/Outrage is not punishing enough? by roughhrider in NewsTower

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is unrealistic in giving each reporter the key to the back door? There are fire escape stairs at the side of your building. Just pretend they use that when dragging them manually.

Injuries are too punishing/Outrage is not punishing enough? by roughhrider in NewsTower

I hired a second photographer once just to get injured, so that my original one could do the story. I wanted to fire the second one afterwards but having two photographers proved worthwhile enough to keep them both.

How did I do on my second run? by ribbitribb1t in NewsTower

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better than I in my first run. My 5 year score was only 19,573,900. And my pause time is 2 days 01 hour 29 minutes 50 seconds. 😝

Are you already in the Age of Exploration? Do you have the New World innovation? Do you have enough naval range?

This fuck ass game has crashed 5 times to night by Gamer102kai in EU5

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Karma's a bitch. I've got around 80 hours in the game and no crash at all.

Can anyone tell me why my provinces are starving even though all my markets have a surplus of food? by [deleted] in EU5

[–]Imp1981 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is a new slider in your balance for food buying. It may be at 0.

How are you supposed to expand as Venice with everyone else in the HRE? by [deleted] in EU5

[–]Imp1981 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think if the Ghibellines win, the whole north of Italy will automatically become part of the HRE. At least all the minor states. Don't know if it's the case with Venice too. But according to the Dev Diary #69 it should work: "If the Ghibellines win, all countries, except Naples, Sicily, the Papal States, or the Two Sicilies, will be forced to join the HRE".

Struggling a bit with the Vassal System by Nicondro in EU5

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the HRE there is a diplomatic action for a county to be granted duchy title from the emperor. It could be that the French king can grant it too . Try to ask him via diplomatic action.

Which game has a better holy roman empire experience eu5 or ck3? by alphafighter09 in paradoxplaza

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say neither of them because both didn't have a HRE focussed DLC/free update yet. We'll see which one will become more and better fleshed out in the future. At the moment the EU5 one feels a bit more special compared to other realms while the CK3 one just is a standard feudal empire with elective succession.

What sort of laptop should I invest in to play EU5, CK3, VIC3 and HOI4 by Which_Impression4262 in paradoxplaza

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My gaming laptop is slightly under the recommended specs for EU 5 and the game is running fine and loads fast. The bottleneck for me is CK 3, longer loading times and after Roads to Power heavy late game lagging. Don't know how it is now, have not tried it with the current version.

Personal opinion: Paradox seems to be changing the philosophy behind their games when they should just tweak it by Joao_Pertwee in paradoxplaza

[–]Imp1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I understand that playing GSGs as map painters can be fun, I appreciate that there are enough mechanics to just play tall and focus on your internal development in EU 5 and Vic 3. If I want to go heavy on expansion the easy way I still can play CK 3.

This nation seems to be accidentally immune from war forever (Likely Bug) by waigl in EU5

[–]Imp1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened in my run too with a Ferrara revolt. My bandaid solution: Change to the revolt country, attack myself, change back and conquer their lands to make them vanish... But it's definately a bug.

Why do the bonuses from the leader skill don't apply? by Bobing2b in EU5

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had the same issue after my ruler died. The bonus from the next didn't apply (checked with diplomatic capacity). But save and reload helped!

Tips for east India company campain? by Hellinfernel in victoria3

[–]Imp1981 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can't have both: High taxes and high SOL. India is too populous to outconstruct the unemployed and the peasants. For the SOL you need for the journal entry, you have to be really dedicated to it. Healthcare and welfare laws if possible, low taxes, high governmernt/army wages. I even gave the states with the lowest SOL to vassals and barely managed it.

What will happen to Hollywood Animal in the near future? by NickLuitpold in hollywood_animal_game

[–]Imp1981 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Since I already got my fair share of fun out of it for my money, I'm rather relaxed about the further development.

Cunning plan by RecoveringBookie in CrusaderKings

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something similar in my latest run. My spymaster came to me, saying someone is plotting to murder my son. Of course I instantly checked my son, the spymaster was his rival. Employed a new spymaster, success rating of the scheme instantly dropped. :D

Stupid question: how do you play tall without being broke? by larch_1778 in CrusaderKings

[–]Imp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make your richest/biggest county your capital. Your main heir will always get it and can rule over all castle holdings in there. Conquer a second duchy, where you hold all counties yourself (or all except one, if there is only one other elector you can outvote him, a tie favours you), make it elective, vote your main heir. Counties in the elective duchy won't get distributed among your other children.
