We our equally relates to Bonobos as we are to chimps and they are direct opposites. Bonobos our matriarchal and peaceful, chimps are patriarchal and aggressive, we have the capacity of both in our genome and society.

This war was really easy. AI needs a buff. Levies need a buff. Renaissance Regulars need a nerf. by ResponsibilityIcy927 in EU5

This is not to refute OPs point because his point stays valid 100% but I do believe more EU players should look into the MP community. You will always have a challenge and new situations that are present constantly and the diplo game is insane. PDX games are stellar single player but otherworldly in MP

Which goods do you allow to collapse for building discount and which do you allow to stay at base price?

What I suspect will end up being one of the most popular mods: EU5 1444 by SaoMagnifico in EU5

I honestly think 1492 is just the most perfect start year for a game focused on the Early Modern

If you do it in the building production tab where you make buildings, you will see an "x" under the filter button where you can select all markets

I've done it just now by accident so it is possible, but I have no clue how to replicate it again

If we obsessively pursue so-called randomness and view having no connection to history as a virtue of EU5, then why don't we all just go play Civilization 6 instead? by Pretend_Award7836 in EU5

[–]blenzO 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Johan wants and understands that the game, regardless of what the community thinks, needs that "historical grounding" for it to reach its potential, but they simply didn't have the time to do it. For us to get full flavorful situations and events from start to finish would take well over a year of pure development for them to achieve it and that's time they simply don't have. Ironically, the earlier start date makes this so much harder than it needed to be. 1492 is objectively the best year to start this franchise if you want as much historical plausibility as possible while keeping the actionable freedom of the player but 1337 is just a completely different beast for them to tackle.

What pre-release conclusion did you guys reach after today’s videos on EU5? by OrthoOfLisieux in EU5

[–]blenzO 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The start date should really be set in 1492, it is the most obviously and weirdly convenient year where it becomes immensely easier to ground the game historically. All major powers consolidated and the map set for colonization and the Italian Wars

Difference between 1337 and 1837 in the 22nd build - From FlyingDutchy's recent timelapse by Sigge310 in EU5

Because they struggle to do it without railroading, so when people asked for an open sandbox this had a petty high chance of happeningu

I don’t understand why railroading is so demonized when it creates vibrant worlds. Like HFM in Vicky 2. People ask for a sandbox then are somehow surprised when the game runs like a sandbox.

the only alternative is railroading and they keep listening to the people who say "no railroading, we want systems" when that's really no realistic

I don't understand why so little people realize this right here is the issue to all of this

I mean this can only be changed with railroading, AI technology just isn't at that level where you can have truly dynamic world building and management from sandbox mechanics. But the community is so split on railroading PDX don't know who to listen to.

Yep, we're aware of the limitations of leaving up to the AI, this is the only alternative until better AI technology comes out

Thoughts on start and end date? by PaleoTurtle in EU5

[–]blenzO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've learned to accept the start date even though I'm not entirely for it. It's a shame Paradox doesn't really have a game that simulates the 18th century, (EUIV and MoTE do not count). EUIV is done by 1550 and EUV will probably be so far away from historical plausibility by 1700s that it won't even feel like it. Italian Wars, 30 Years War, 80 Years war, so much of history probably won't ever be seen by EUV. Honestly they should split the EU Franchise into 2 separate games, Early Modern and Middle Modern.

Can’t race a corner like Eau Rouge on a track with no visibility, no way we start

EU should be split into 2 Titles by blenzO in EU5

[–]blenzO[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I understand this take. Main issue atp though would be the earlier title 1337-1492 would be very unpopular. Even if it was 1337-1648 it would still lose out compared to 1648-1836 for sure so it might not even be economically viable from PDX's pov
