I'm looking for a map for “ideal” fort placement map like this one that covers up the whole country in Zones of Control, but for Asian regions (China, Japan, Korea, Indochina, India, Siberia and Middle East). Is there any? I can't seem to find them anywhere.

Question Why Does This Game Look So Much More Fun Than EU 5?

458 Upvotes

So for context, I only have the fifth game and I have played it, I wouldn't call it bad but it's mostly just looking at another tab and opening the game then and again to build new things or make new laws.

I do like the war system though but it isn't HOI4, you spend more time just developing than actually being in conflicts. It feels like a lesser Victoria 3.

I then take a look at EU 4 and it just seems faster and more fun. I also do like the map, the EU 5 map looks so similar to Paradox games. I enjoy the lower quality and blocky map of EU 4 and I enjoy the fact you can quickly change era even if I know it isn't used much. If I want to play a game with muskets in EU 4, I could just click on a later start date but in EU 5, there is only one start date and I have to wait until gunpowder warfare buildings are unlocked and EU 5 is such a slow game.

I just wanted to ask if EU 4 really is the best Europa Universalis game and if I'm playing EU 5 the wrong way.

Question Courting a coworker or playing eu4?

1.1k Upvotes

So every Friday I have a business meeting with a cute coworker, and usually it lasts 3-4 hours in the afternoon because we hit it off really well and our conversation goes beyond our work duties.

Then comes this eu4 multiplayer campaign that starts right after my shift. The session repeats weekly and I really want to play Hormuz, or maybe even Prussia.

The problem is that for me to join this campaign I have to end work early, meaning no extra time to chat with the cute coworker. I think we have chemistry but we don’t really meet each other out side of the meeting.

Should I play mappies or keep courting her? We met a few days ago and I don’t think we’re familiar enough to have a coffee chat or anything.

Thanks!

I live in Sugla, Ottoman. I don't know wtf is Sugla. We call it Izmir. I never heard Sugla my whole life. Country's name changed to Turkey but it is still the same country. They changed the name because they wanted to secure that monarchy will not come back.

Question FlorryWorry not playing EU5

516 Upvotes

Hi,

I watch him from time to time and he seems to be fully back into solely streaming EU4/other games despite seeming to be super excited for EU5 release. Did he say anything about why he basically stopped playing that game (atleast on stream) a few weeks after release? For me it seemed like a massive opportunity for him to grow as a streamer and he genuinely seemed excited when it was released.
I have my gripes with the game as well and fully understand why he doesn't wanna play it but did he ever give an explanation on stream about it? I'd like to hear his thoughts on the game in its current state since I always found his opinions on the game (EU4 and EU5) quite valuable.
