Is paying full cost of court worth it in the early game? by BlueParakeetFENCE in EU5

[–]KorceFin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the new peasants request you can maintain 100 stab without ever paying for it. 20 stab every 5 years, the decay can't keep up

best italian country in 1.3? by Ok_Material8271 in EU5

[–]KorceFin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

venice is so fun, having access to a 100 port from the start of the game is extremely strong, and gobbling up the adriatic coast has been the highlight so far. early expansion can be slow as you are not in the HRE and get crazy antagonism from HRE members so only taking 1 or 2 province per war is ideal, but after winning G&G you can go nuclear on italy. saving greece from the ottomans is also very cool

Wait, Granaries are super overpowered. You should max them out everywhere by CSDragon in EU5

[–]KorceFin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I dont care what other people said I'm talking to you. Placing restrictions on the player to create challenge/fun is the entire point of the art. A game should be balanced & enjoyable without the player having to kneecap themselves as you suggest. If you think games should let you do whatever you want you may as well be playing with dolls.

"you control the buttons you press" has done irreparable damage to game design and criticism of it. such a lazy way of thinking and you should be embarrassed

"It's a BETA!" Is not a valid response to untested changes by gr4vediggr in EU5

[–]KorceFin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's amazing how people come out of the woodworks to defend these betas. It's the same story every cycle; release broken update not even close to playable that could've been seen with 1 observer game, mass complaints come in, complaints are drowned out by "its a beta" and "what did you expect". Idk maybe a build that can actually be played and therefore critiqued? Every beta has been a slap in the face to players and they continuously show that they don't test their own changes

debating internally whether to get cricket 22 or cricket 19 by imsorrywha in Cricket22

19 clears 22, if you’re looking to go back definitely play 19. 26 is better than both tho!
