What is Veeky Forums opinion of EU4? I love it, but am still getting some mechanics of the game and learning more about it, even after almost 100+ hours of gameplay.

I don't like the mana system being tied into everything

I prefer ck2 more because it's more fair and playable. Both Eu3 and eu4 were too complicated and I got BTFO in every single game file I started like when I played as Pisa and worked up to declare war on urbino but unexpectedly got destroyed by Bohemia which unexpectedly marched its army across Europe into Italy just to destroy me.

one of the most casual historical grand strategy games ever. it is very accessible to new players relatively speaking, has lots of "legal" exploits regarding the AI and warfare, and once you've played a game in every continent the novelty wears off as unique country ideas aren't enough to create a difference. it does not favor building tall, due to how development mechanics work, and it is very easy to stabilize conquered lands meaning the map just becomes giant blobs of ahistorical color.
that being said, if I wanted something historical an indepth I would probably play something more autistic like vicky or ck2. eu4 is an alright game. the base game isnt' very interesting anymore for me, so I mostly play extended timeline, and maybe someday I'll feel up to trying out MEIOU

It was like I was extremely unlucky every time I played Europa universalis. I got crippling rebellions popping up in my provinces even when I was +3 stability and during wartime.

what nation were you playing
Julian Smith
wartime does not help your stability user, war exhaustion gives you more unrest which only goes up during wars.

Played easy start games like Poland or France and some more harder ones like Leinster, I unified Ireland but got destroyed by Scotland+rebels.
Jackson Cooper
do you know how to calm down rebellions?
