However, I must also warn you: the game is a complex array of mechanics and ideas and is absolutely not to everyone's speed. If you enjoy other Paradox Games you will most likely find yourself having a great time with this title. Like other Paradox games it's greatest strength is in the game's dynamic flow and story: the only victory conditions are those you set for yourself, which lends the game a near infinite amount of replayability. Conquer the world, or simply strive to eke out an existence among the greater powers. The game itself is a wonderful exploration of nearly four-hundred years of human history, all of which is malleable to your will. While most other Paradox titles are fraught with poorly conceived release schedules and underwhelming technical support in their first days, Europa Universalis IV breaks the trend and shows that Paradox Development Studios is both capable and willing to produce high-quality games. While most other Paradox titles are fraught with poorly It's a niche game, for a niche audience, but boy does it do what it sets out to do. It's a niche game, for a niche audience, but boy does it do what it sets out to do. If they get the budget to build something with a more solid multiplayer experience we will see the PERFECT game. Can't wait to see what we get when the final few pieces of the game design puzzle fall into place. If you love strategy gaming please go and buy this game and support this developer! This is a FAR, FAR superior game to Civilizations 1-5 as well as anything put out by Creative Assembly. I'm very excited about where this will lead with the Hearts of Iron series, because all the design wisdom that we can see in CK2 and EU4 is leading in the absolute correct direction. The depth and complication is welcome, but it has been softened with a more thoughtful and gaming friendly structure! GREAT WORK PARADOX! Good things take time, and your grand ambitions are finally bearing fruit. Europa Universalis IV seems to demonstrate that Paradox has really turned the corner. The machine kept churning away but Paradox learned to save us from the worst of it, and the gameplay began to blossom. However something miraculous happened with Crusaders Kings 2, and echoes of the good things we saw in earlier games (Hearts of Iron 2) reappeared: Better looking graphics. But beyond inaccessibility, the games were finally not that good, because even when you figured out the mechanisms they were still too MECHANICAL: not even really worth learning in the end because they were all variations of a sausage machine. Most of the Paradox efforts suffered from terrible tutorials and ridiculous learning curved that discouraged any vaguely casual gamers.
Their games have been for the most part tedious, pretentious and ugly, with cluttered mechanisms, and hideous micromanagement. Their WOW! For about ten years Paradox Development have been a small team of nice guys working hard to give us good games and mostly failing. WOW!
