I

you took the words out of my mouth

eh

<:Dab:549522269542547456>

I can't claim to have a favorite paradox game since I hate them all equally and I've spent an equal amount of my life on them

I gotta get CK2

CK2 isn't worth it

but I like EU4

EU4 is right for me, a semi brainlet.

CK just makes my neurons trip over eachother.

I have 900 hours in CK2 and I can tell you that the game becomes extremely monotonous

hmm

EU4 is much more engaging tbh

Huh.

because at least I can call my colonies "Sandnigger land"

Imperator Rome is actually shit if you're not playing as Rome, Carthage, Sicily, or Diadochi

Syracuse i meant not sicily

I played imperator rome pirated when it came out and had a blast with shitposting in the game, but it just reminds me of EU4 but without the ability to oppress minorities for spices

<:gib:550020532746190859>

best part of EU4 is the reformation and MEIOU since I get to hold the line as the only german catholic nation

it has potential, but colonization needs a full rework, idk what they gotta do with the 200+ random tribes in Europe, but they gotta do something to make them more playable

Yes EU4 time period is epic

sandboxy yet historical

yeah

MEIOU was good.

Nah I like the devoid battles.

CK2 goes way off the charts past 100+ years, and Imperator Rome just doesn't fufill anything like the Trimuvirates or aynthing

stellaris is "ok"

could be way better and maybe it will be

Stellaris is bs.

stellaris is the only paradox game I have some hope for

I still dislike a lot of what they've done

I'm not a space fan

I'm a 40k fan and I really, really enjoy getting to a point in the game where I can see my empire crumble around me

but paradox games are the eternal snowball

You haven't opened the Eye of Terror yet.

the shroud?

that could be fixed with some devastating events that start happening once you reach a certain point

yeah, a lot of paradox games is just endless snowballing and the actual end game events come too late

or actually getting to it is boring as hell

my Mare Nostrum run just became tedious lol
