in eu5, golden horde not falling apart definitely happens way too often, but i dont think people should be reacting like "WTF WHY IS THE GOLDEN HORDE STILL A THING IN THE 17TH CENTURY?!"
for all the flaws in how the game works, i am super glad they didnt just hack it with some railroading events that kill the country instantly but rather made it so that it may or may not collapse organically

Historically, Crimea made it to 1783 and the Kazakhs well into the 1800s, but god forbid this very specific Pontic-Caspian steppe horde makes it beyond 1530

what?

Thomas Aquintas talks about how Muslims are wrong and his biggest argument for why Christianity is real and Islam isn't is that Muhammad didn't do enough miracles which seems like a huge cope to me
His second argument was that Muslim heaven is hedonistic and so Muhammad was le bad for promising people good stuff in heaven but like, that's the same as Christian heaven, just described more vividly?
idk what his other arguments were but they were probably shit considering i don't remember them
Honestly Islam existing is like the biggest blow to Christianity there could be because how can a Christian both think the Bible is super reliable but the qumran isn't?
>>
muhamed is the cope
if you were biblically literate you would understand the contradiction in saying that the injeel is one quarter the revealed word of God but minimizing the role of Christ to that of a prophet
ishmaelites have been on cope ever since their inception as the bastard children of abraham. no judgment from me, but under that lens it is much easier to understand the equation
>>
muhammad sexed little kids, raped and pillaged everything he conquered and mass murdered pagans and commanded his followers to be mindless slaves and the libs love him

I think I outgrew this kind of games.
At first, I thought CK3 was just a shit and an exception to the rule, because pdx decided to make medieval sims for women instead of GSG. Alright, fair enough. The game sold well after all, who am I to judge them.
But now EU5 came out, and after a hundred hours I feel as bored as I was with CK3.
You just collect green modifiers and paint map.
No dynamic management, no interesting character situations, no proper warfare or strategy. Economy is alright, but once you figure it out, it too becomes just a boring grind because it's so fucking static.
I feel like I'm regressing back to Total War type of GSG lmao..
Does anyone feel somewhat similar?

Or idk, get a full conversion mod. EU5 is on track to be just Stellaris 2, the "sandbox"ers won.

I hate nu-modding, bros. Get this tiny fix for one thing, then get this other fix, then get the updated fix for the beta patch, then get the compatch, and don't forget the "one-event-for-portugal-mod". Where the fuck is EU5+? Batteries included, game fixed, I don't wanna think about all that shit

desu hoi4 should be in the same place as eu4
>>
hoi4 at least nominally aims for a historical outcome
>>
Hoi4 is only meme ahistorical if you choose the option where counties don't pick historical focuses
This doesn't make it a simulator but it's an important distinction
>>
hoi4 vanilly gives germany the most hitlerific navy buffs you can think of to where they would shit on britain in '40 if you just went for them
pretty historical
>>
it's meant to represent mechanics and gameplay as opposed to actual outcome. By 1821, eu4 looks a lot more historical and closer to an actual map of that time as opposed to eu5, but eu5 feels infinitely more like a historical simulator than eu4, which is pretty much the peak of "gamey"
Also I don't have many hours in ck2 and never touched vic3 so those are mainly based off what I've seen and heard

EUVfags cannot possibly be this deluded.
>>
euiggers
>>
in eu4 you can literally colonize an entire continent as an OPM and do a world conquest less than 100 years after the start date, eu5 is absolutely more realistic in that regard
>>
eu4 should be somewhere in the middle between gamiest and most historical
how the fuck is v3 that close to being the most historical, yank that shit closer to the left
>>
i like how the major criticism of eu5 is events being opaque when thats literally how they work in every paradox game
meanwhile shittoria 3 has literally no flavor events outside of short scripted journal entries and it makes the entire game feel dead when you see how shallow all its game mechanics are
>>
the foundation of eu4 is literally bird, paper, and sword points. No pop system, extremely basic warfare, provinces are completely static "one or the other religion/culture", eu4 is the prime example of a gamey grand strategy. CK2/3 shares some stuff like development and no pop system, but mechanically it's still a lot closer to real history. And even if vic3 is shit, it's still more grounded than eu4
>>
>>>/vg/549725481
>>>/vg/549725481
komm home /gsg/ mann
>>
eu4 has major assymetrical aspects to nations though, and mission trees unique to each one which more or less guides you to historical outcomes
>>
v3 is absolutely more historical than eu4 if only by virtue of not being able to do a world conquest as easly and having rebels that are dependent on more than just separatism (than dissapers in max 15 years) like come on let's be real
being more or less gamey doesn't make it a better game

I despise "sandbox"shills. Every single polity in this game has to sit through a century of medieval nonsense to get to a worked version of the mid-140ps, and they have no flavor, nothing unique, just differently colored paint being spread around the map. Awful.

i like the black plague prologue of eu5, it's a nice touch as a randomizer

national flavour and turning gsg's into hardcoded single-player 'experiences' (i.e the path of greatest modifier bloat) are not mutually exclusive

True but it's also pure historical fantasy, handwaving racism out of racism the era leads to nonsense like modern migration patterns to canada in the 1850s. I truely do not understand the woke mindset how is sweeping historical discrimination under the rug a good thing? I geuss they wanted the Anno crowd and thought they could make a cookie clicker number go up game but it just completely failed and with eu V there's zero reason to play it because again it is historical fantasy and it doesn't feel like you are playing a victorian era game like vic2 did.

Regarding CK3 DLC's, is the DLC content active in the world and used by AI when not purchased? as in, are there DLCs that if you purchase/enable, makes the game miserable for their neighbors? I've been perusing steam reviews and that seems to come up, i.e. playing a rooskie is harder with the steppe DLC, or are the changes baseline and in the vanilla game? Played the game back at launch and enjoyed it but quit after ~30 hours, looking to play it again and wondering which DLC to prioritize. Strongly considering roads to power and tours/tourneys, royal court.

ask the ckg or just pirate the dlc

hahahh stay mad you bitch surrender monkey
>>
definitely not doing that

>play ck3 version 1.5.1
why that version specifically
are you one of those people that say "china bad" and insist that modern conputers cant handle asia, or is this an unrelated issue where there actually is some trouble with newer versions like a recent bug that they havent fixed? if its a major bug then eh ill just wait for them to fix it if it's a questionable design decision then i might just listen to you exactly
