How long until Paradox abandon EU5? This was supposed to be their magnum opus.. no one wants to play..
>>2320279... brother they didn't even released dlcs yet
>EU5 and EU4 being so closei have one wish... only one...
Unfortunately I got a job so I'll play it after they decide on what the game should be for long enough I can play a campaign
>>2320279I would play it but I only have 8GB RAM
>>2320279civ6 bros, huge W
>>2320279Seems fine to me.This time after Civ6's release, Civ5 had gone back to being on top.Took 2 years for Civ6 to finally beat Civ5.Yet here Eu5 is still ahead of Eu4 already.Would probably do a lot better if more people could afford upgrades to run the game.
The unreal engine is a crime against humanity.
>>2320279>Less players than StellarisLmao
>>2320320Maybe the retarded piece of shit devs might consider optimizing their crappy games now since building a PC will soon cost almost as much as buying a fucking car.
Is Civ VII really that bad?
>>2320279It's their flagship; they will keep it on life support no matter the user base.Besides, active player base doesn't matter, Johan already said it is one of their best selling title. They already have the money from the players.
>>2320279HOI4 and Civ6 chads, we won
>>2320469Yeah been thinking maybe that could be a short term good outcome of this.
If you really want a laugh look up Total War Pharoah and Total War Troy current players
>>2320342In fairness, Stellaris doesn't really have any alternatives. All Paradox's other games are historical GSGs and Stellaris is a space 4X. All the other space 4X games out there are turn-based, except SINS, and SINS plays a lot differently anyways. So if you want to play a game like Stellaris, you really only have Stellaris as an option. Whereas if you want to play a game like EUV you could play EUIV, Victoria 3, Victoria 2, etc.
>>2320279They need to bring back missions and the people will come out, turns out the people crying about them were a tiny minority, oops
>>2320285If I remember right at one point MH Wilds did dip below World (although never Rise) so it would be funny for this to be round 2 of that
>>2320279>no one wants to play>it's higher than EUIVThis isn't Twitter where you get paid to ragebait, so who is cutting your checks?
I find eu5 more fun, needs more ways to know how to trigger historical events than checking the files, also with a mod every nation has advances now.
>>2320501harriet tubman
>>2320279Why would they abandon the game?It had a successful launch and, sure, I don't think it's as good as EU4 and I don't have much interest in playing it, enough people have already bought in that Paradox's DLC financial model should work
>>2320590>Total War Pharoahneed to play that, not many bronze age games....
Am I retarded? I found EU5 easier to get into than HOI4.
>>2320279Until EU6 comes out
>>2320983Nope. HOI4 has a fuck ton of mechanics added and tuned over the years. EUV doesn't even have that many mechanics, it's just difficult to figure out what the fuck is going on.Now, if they had the balls to actually simulate an economy with potential scarcity and were able to make the AI able to navigate it...
>>2320991>hoi4 is le complexNigger, please.
>>2320861Missions just had abysmal balance. The rewards were so stupidly powerful that avoiding them was comparatively unfun. Of course, that's mostly because playing around them was plenty of fun.
>>2320993>I found EU5 easier to get into than HOI4>HOI4 has a fuck ton of mechanics added and tuned over the years.>DURRR I CAN'T BELIVE YOU SAID HOI4 WAS COMPLEXwhen people say retarded people don't have the capacity to realize how stupid they are, they're referring to you
>>2320996Nigger, please.
>>2321005I'll make it simpler for you.You don't have the required literacy to read a single sentence. That is bad. Work on that.
>>2321016Don't make it even simpler or you'll find it too complex to articulate lmao. That said. Nigger, please.
>>2321020You don't even know what to respond to.You think you're in a pissing contest. No, I'm telling you how it is. You're going to run into this issue and you'll realize I was right. You are barely literate.
>>2320279I have insufficient GPU to run it.Because you need a gaming GPU for PDX game. Jesus fuck, this company is beyond retarded.
>>2321027My man, I could be swinging from a tree and picking my ass for edibles right now and I'd still be superior to the dumbest of bitches seething and foaming at the mouth over muh hoi4 is complex. So yeah. Nigger, please.
>>2320279>Why nobody wants to play a strategy game that requires a high-end gaming rig to run at all and has no option to downgrade its graphics to ease on the CPU, GPU and RAM usage, allowing to just chug numbers, rather than visualsNo idea anon. A total mystery.Whoever convinced them to do that 3D crap engine change with CK3 should be fucking tortured to death.
It does have an option to use a 2d map, the game runs like shit anyway
>>2321047It still has the impossible-to-turn-off shader for water and map textures that's simply poorly written and wastes absurd amount of memory. If you code around it , the game actually runs smoother, despite nothing else changed.I fucking miss EU3 era. They were at the point where they knew what they need in their engine and what makes their own games tick, without shit added to please the execs from the board.
>>2321042Again, you're trying to have a pissing contest. You're under the false impression I'm engaging in it. I'm not judging you here. You don't have basic literacy if your reading comprehension tells you the message is>muh hoi4 is complexGenuinely, that's not good. You should practice reading.
>>2321055>actual seething and copingYou got any other deflection or gay cope to try and shift from you being filtered by HOI4? My sides bro. LMAO even.
>>2321080I guess you genuinely can't understand the idea that I'm not engaging in your pissing contest. I just told you off once because you tried to start shit. I just realized where it came from in the first place. Just try a reading comprehension test for ESLs to figure out your English level.
>>2321090And yet you keep replying with your passive aggressive bitching. I must have struck a nerve lol. Just stop making up excuses and get gud bro. It's a very simple and easy game to play.
>>2321096If you interpret it as passive-aggressive because you're insecure as fuck. Explains why you are so intent on having a pissing contest. I'm telling you, take a reading comprehension test to figure out your English proficiency level.
>>2321098>no uAnd yet you keep replying with your passive aggressive bitching. Alright sister, I'll show you mercy and stop bullying you. Suppose life is already hard for a sperg dumb enough to be filtered by HOI4.
>>2321118>no uThink carefully. Was that what I said?I'm being really genuine. You aren't very literate.
just get a room already
I'm waiting for them to fix the stupidly aggressive AI. It was fine on release but it's unplayable now with France and Bohemia blobbing all of Europe.
>>2320288I was playing the game with 8 GB RAM just fine until I very recently upgraded to 16. Basically made very little difference except for load times. If your GPU/CPU are semi-decent you'll run the game without any problems
>>2320977don't bother, it doesn't do it justice
>>2320279It's too fucking complicated. I regret buying it day one. I just can't get into it. Bring back mission trees. Feels like imperator with Victoria economy shit.
>>2320279>they made CK2 free to play, but it doesn't isn top 15
>nazi simulator is #1lol everyone hates jews
>>2321492That's because CK2 is without DLCs and thus unplayable
>>2320599Stellaris is such a bad strategy game, it's openly talked about as an RPG - by its only fans.
>>2320279Nearly 20 years old Civ V more played than euroach universalis Kek
>>2320279>Civ 5 Has more players than modern titles.The state of gaming is rough.
>>2321487Too complicated? It's simpler than EU4, to the point that it is excruciatingly boring to play because there isn't enough enough gameplay to fill the much slower flow of time. The economy is "complex" but is meant to be automated, so you don't even interface with that mechanic at all. The complicated simulation shit is all in the background, requiring no input from you and having little to no impact on what you do.
>>2320861The people crying about missions always pirate the game even when Paradox gives them what they want, and the people who actually bought the game liked missions. Appealing to the 4chan crowd is always a retarded business move. You won't get their money either way.
>>2320599>All the other space 4X games out there are turn-based, except SINSYou forgot Distant Worlds.
>>2321862And Star Ruler. And, I believe, Stardrive
>>2321813the game badly needs more options for partial automation, especially in diplomacy, there are some things the ai just shouldn't be doing
>>2321813Playing around with the economy could be complex, but the issue is they pussyfooted around with it too much. There's no real scarcity, there's no real oversupply, there's nothing to really play around except making profitable stuff.
>>2321813the player is forced to play like AI, and the AI refuses to play like a player
>>2320599>In fairness, Stellaris doesn't really have any alternativesAre you fucking retarded?
>>2320279Wtf are those Three Kangdoms numbers
>>2322040Biggest TW launch ever, just nobody wanted to buy the DLC.
It's too buggy atm. Otherwise, a great platform to build upon
>Florryworry went back to eu4its fucking over
>>2321813So, you are saying its is issue is being too much like a simulation?
>>2322059LMAO HAHAHAHAHAHAHANo way, what did he say? I do not believe you for a second. No I will not check.
>>2320279Same as Imperator they will give it 2 years.
>>2320342Stellaris is the only GSG I've seen my normalfag acquaintances talk about
>>2322319Sweetie, people R*ddit are saying player numbers don't matter and it is perfectly normal to have lower player numbers than CK3.
>>2322464And that game is shallower than my backyard pond so it figures
>>2322319So we need to:>Fire Johan and kill the studio>Put someone competent in his place to tard-wrangle the project>Revamp most mechanicst in the game>Rebuild the IUSounds about right.
Just realized they made a big fuss about dynamic flags and yet I've never seen anything but the standard flag for all countries. What even causes them to change?
>>2322614I think i've gotten a flag change as otoman every time the age has advanced
