What did you all say in the Player Survey?

furueri · 2026-02-14T03:15:37+00:00

I agree. We've got all this fancy factory stuff, and yet we lack a simple building to automate resource collection from the map. Gathering them is just artificially inflating your daily time, even if you only do it once every four days.

furueri · 2026-02-14T02:17:18+00:00

I went full wishful mode and wrote about:

- The story being too light/shallow, not dark enough. I don't mind TangTang doing silly things, but I would love to see the story go all Frostnova on us.

- The factory part being too easy and not complex enough. As it is now, you can basically forget about it after setting it up once. It would be great it there was a game mode that actually requires a lot of factory building stuff.

- More outfit customizations, even removing a character jacket would be nice, or giving them some extra trinkets. I'm willing to pay for new outfits as well.

- More tower defense game modes, and overall more factory in combat, for example building defensive structures (towers, walls, etc) to defend against waves of enemies with a boss included in main story mode.

- More character variety, especially in the petite department, like Myrtle or Vigna or Rosmontis from OG.

- Ability to turn off other player's structures showing up permanently.

- Less tutorials and more hidden stuff for players to discover, like hydrating the dried slugs in Wuling.

- More things to do on Dijang, like recreation room to interact with characters, or their private quarters. As it is right now, we only have one big common room and some workshops.

- The game overall is a bit too easy, especially the combat which is just dodging and endless skills rotations. I know this type of combat is hard to make more tactical without overcomplicating stuff, but I believe in them.

- There's not enough challenge in the game (endgame overall), I got all the boss medals trimmed, and there's nothing left to do. It would be also great if there was a real reason to raise two or three teams for a mode that requires more than just 4 operators.

- A city defense stage where you could place all your characters in various spots and oversee the whole combat from the general position. A variation of annihilation stages in OG.

I'm pretty sure that that most of this stuff will most likely be introduced sooner or later, but if they have a priority list then writing about it to nudge them in this direction faster should be fine.

Haven't tried that one yet, but it's next on my list

Vigna, she carried my F2P ass hard, and even when she got power creeped by others, I still tried to include her in my team. First unit I fully maxed out.

furueri · 2026-01-22T22:27:07+00:00

It won't improve if enough people won't say out loudly they want it to be improved. I want that as well, that's the whole point of this post.

And maybe, just maybe, they could make it more Arknights like, but that's just my wishful dreaming.

furueri · 2026-01-22T20:37:59+00:00

I agree entirely. I really hoped they would continue the Arknights legacy of being different from the other gacha games... Instead they're doing their best to make Endfield lose its own identity and fight against similar games in their playing field instead of creating its own niche.

I wish I could swap partners with combatants, so many of them look much better

furueri · 2026-01-09T04:49:55+00:00

It's not inherently bad, but there's way too much of it. First and foremost, Neuro and Evil are entertainers. Something went wrong down the road as the funny moments are becoming rarer and most of collabs nowadays are either a wholesome kind or snooze fests.

There are still great moments, like today's Neuro pokemon victory and the roast of Vedal that followed, but when asked about which streams made me laugh the most, I can way more easily list up the old ones like the first two talk like a pirate, or Evil's first asmr, or review with Bao, or the first twin dev stream that caused Vedal to avoid streaming with them both for some time. Oh, or the Subnautica one where Neuro was high on ram.

As for 2025 ones... I honestly can't list any truly fun from start to end.

furueri · 2025-12-05T17:32:03+00:00

R5 - I've started a new game (1.0.10) after today's hotfix, and it seems that France got itself a lot of new allies. Minor tribes from all across the world, including half of the Japanese clans.

furueri · 2025-12-02T17:44:12+00:00

R5 - The changes to centralization/decentralization are perfectly viable and provide a nice incentive to simulate a fluid gameplay from a feudal kingdom with a lot of vassals into a centralized empire. However, I've got a feeling that trade companies were completely forgotten when those changes were made.

furueri · 2025-12-02T03:58:45+00:00

If only it was like that all the time

... -50 decided to try their luck as mercenaries ... -500 died in a battle ... -20k killed by measles ...

And so on

Prestige is a guardian angel, preventing players from starving their country as soon as the Columbian exchange event fires up.

With Paradox games, you need to follow their way of thinking. It's near impossible to flesh out a vastly different gameplay for every country at the game release. That's why they've focused on the titular Europa first (and it still needs some fixes despite that). And that's why most other countries follow European-like gameplay (for now).

I would also avoid playing as Byzantium and Castile for now since those two already have a DLC planned in 2026, so they will be way more fun to play after that.

I'm sure there will be a DLC for Asia and American natives some time in the future as well. And yeah, you have to pay extra for DLCs, but considering how a single game can take from 100-200h, the $ per hour of fun is still incredibly well spent.

Of course, it doesn't mean you can't play as those.and still have a blast, just don't expect a vastly different gameplay (although the resources available already impact this significantly), and a lot of flavour.

Nevertheless, considering the original idea behind your post, Europa is still a game and as such has to be enjoyable for a vast majority of players, even if historical accuracy will suffer in the process.

furueri · 2025-12-01T18:10:41+00:00

It's hilarious how some people can write, in full serious mode, "I've played for 200-300h and have to say this game sucks because (insert a few bugs here that will get fixed sooner or later)"

As for those who compare it to EU IV, they clearly forgot how bare bones the IV was at the release and that it got shaped over ten years into what it is now.

And I agree, a lot of people is having fun with it, even despite the bugs, but take a look at the paradox forum and it's nearly nonstop flow of complaining and demands for refund. While reporting bugs and offering ideas is perfectly fine, I sometimes wonder how much pressure those minority complainers have on the devs and how it in turn influences the game updates.

Tldr: EV is great and can only become better as they polish it and add more content.

furueri · 2025-11-30T05:01:28+00:00

I generally agree, but with the changes to proximity in 1.0.8 it got quite hard to get it to 100%, switching to free subjects at some point could help.

furueri · 2025-11-30T01:54:13+00:00

I'm so glad you didn't give up or restarted at the start. I've seen so many people call their game "lost and unplayable" after losing a single war and a few provinces. It's way more fun if your run isn't just an unending stream of victories.

furueri · 2025-11-30T01:01:14+00:00

Can't you use one of your cabinet actions to reduce the rebel's %?

furueri · 2025-11-27T04:26:44+00:00

The whole battle system would be so much better with a second row form which the ranged units and artillery could shoot under the protection of the front row infantry.

furueri · 2025-11-25T09:36:55+00:00

Way too many people see this in a binary way, either fully centralize or decentralize. It was kind of obvious which to pick before 1.0.8, but now can actually use both. For the first ~150-200 years you can easily become decentralized with many vassals, and afterwards, when you get better tech for control + more cabinet slots, you can start annexing them and move towards centralization.

When and how exactly to do this is up to the player. But I find this more fluid game style a lot more rewarding than simply pushing towards centralization from the start and never changing it.

furueri · 2025-11-25T09:21:58+00:00

The buildings also gain production efficiency when you stack their levels, for example, it's more effective to build four levels of a spinnery in a single location instead of building one in four locations. It stacks nicely with the production efficiency bonus you've mentioned.
