>Trade range bug (supposedly) fixed, but nobody actually plays the game so we just don't know
Hello, game playerer here. It's """""fixed""""" in that that the calculations exist now and are correct, however trade range stacks up so high now that by the third age it stops mattering. If you are playing as portugal for example, you don't actually have to colonize the spice islands. Simply discover them and you have enough range to ship directly to Lisbon (or the whole rest of the world) Having ports along the way doesn't matter or help, the intermediate markets don't do anything. You theoretically pay more trade capacity but it's not much.

seems to be like paradox just tried to chew more than they can eat with victora 3 and eu5, both have the most "in depth" economic systems of any paradox game, but that makes them really hard to balance and it's hard to make the AI properly functioni hope the silk and silver expansion will be good, it's a bit more in depth than usual but not too much, that's probably what paradox should have gone for

I think the problem is the game is simply too granular to simulate history well.
The AI in EU4 could be tardwrangled to achieve vaguely historical outcomes, or at least somewhat believable worlds, due to the limited number of provinces. There's only so far off the rails they can go.
In EU5 due to the sheer amount of locations (and the devs refusal to give cunts railroaded cores) the map will always end up looking horrible.If 2.0 is not the railroad patch this game is done. Ambition trees are the last hope for this game.

With Eastern Buddhist religion you can promote 3 sects, and under the fervor for each of them it says number of sect followers +0.04, the description text implies this is pop-led, as in the pops themselves have subsects, but it isn't displayed anywhere. Is there a mapmode or panel I'm missing?

Anti-railroaders come in two categories.
There's the naivists, who are genuinely so fucking braindead that they believes the mechanics of the game alone can simulate a realistic world, despite the AI obviously not being able to do that.
And the Sandbox shitter, who wants every single game to be completely off the wall alien space bats quirk chungus gross Ulm, he got into Paradox games by watching HoI4 youtubers revive the Byzantine Empire.Both of them are completely retarded, but in two completely different ways.
Railroaders coincidentally also come in two different types, very manly and very handsome. But there's a lot of overlap between them.

I wish the game had feudalism, instead you will still spawn SOME levies in places with zero control and no one will build anything useful in fringe areas even if it's a relatively rich area.
The game is CK3 but without the parts that make sense. In that game every province has a sub-owner character and you can only directly control X number of locations yourself without penalties, so you never have to build 200 training fields at the same time.
In EU5 you have 300 noble characters and 295 of them don't do anything.

I'm saying you shouldn't have ANY control where you don't have control. Instead you should have to hand it off to someone else who will actually do something with it (for themselves. not you.)
EU5 still gives you levies, manpower, and all the trade goods so it doesn't even hurt you to blob, it's just annoying instead.

The amount of bullshit you have to do to make sure the Wars of the Roses happen and to get the Tudors is retarded. I WANT history in my history game.

Why is that locked behind several unrelated events and then the Yorkists and Lancastrians can just die off before you get to that point and so it never happens. RAILROAD IT YOU FUCKS. Give people a way to avoid it if they’re good at the game, but why the fuck do I need to know that I need event eng_flavor.1404 so I can make sure eng_flavor.1405 fires, and there’s no fucking tooltips says the latter requries Henry Tudor to be born by that first one and that first will never fire if you’re playing the game properly and marrying off your sons quickly.

1. Those aren't 0 control. Being a core gives an automatic 20 control to represent the inherent loyalty of your primary/accepted culture to the state, those island settlers WOULD show up to fight for you if you called them up but
2. Just don't fucking raise them, bro. Just because 13 colonial peasants would be willing to fight for you if you had means of bringing them to Europe doesn't mean doing so makes economic sense. The cost of transporting them in boats and logistics far outways the benefit they provide, just stand them down.

Sandbox v Railroading argument kind of misses the main problem with the game that history just kind of stops and most of the time you're stuck with the same great powers in 1837 as you are in 1335. Whereas in actual history with the exception of France the entire diplomatic landscape has changed multiple times and no the Mamelukes aren't still squatting on Syria. The only thing they've actually done well towards changing that is the Turks do shit for awhile now

I'll try a Scotlands playthrough. My idea so far: End the civil war asap, start taking over northern ireland and as many provinces as I can without starting a war with England and once the 100 year war starts I'll side with France and take over both islands in a 100 year time window.
Thoughts, suggestions?

I was honestly not a fan of being unable to reinforce a battle on the adjacent province if I act as soon as the enemy comes out of the fog.
At least you got infiltrate administration relatively early in order to mitigate that, but there's still plenty of years before it.

How is Anglicanism supposed to be viable? Conversion is slow as dirt even with good councilors, Lutheranism is expanding 10x as fast, and Catholic rebels are going off every two years or more. This is literally impossible without cheating.

Fuck this game. Why is it so tediously hard and unbalanced for no reason. Doing a historical England game, going to Tudors, historically going to Anglicanism by events, is literally impossible without cheating. It immediately bankrupts my country and causes rebellions every two year/ even if I win one or two. Did they play their game? Rhetorical question. Of course they fucking didn’t. I just want a comfy larp.
