How many thousands of hours did you have to play  to finally complete a game? :P

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I've never completed a game.  Usually there is some bug, or a I lose interest, or whatever.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I think I could say that about every Paradox game I've ever played.   :blush:

I used to finish EU and EU2 games pretty regularly but that was before the games became too cumbersome and slow to play. That was why I had a hard time getting into EU3, the damn thing played in super slow motion compared to EU2.

I've finished EU4 games a few times.

I've completed a few CKII games.  I think all of them were before Jade Dragon;  things seem even blobbier since JD came out, which doesn't do much to keep my interest in the late game.

Really can't wait for Holy Fury, the updates to the Pope really look incredible.

I've finished EU2 games, EU3 games and Victoria games.  I'm not sure if HOI4 has an end date.  I just stop playing when the war is over, which with recent patches seems to be around 1942 <_<

Pope Francis has been a great upgrade.
The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

Tuscany game is going very well.

Currently the King of Italy, Sardina & Corsica, and Jerusalem. I could have broke away to be independent a long time ago. However I chose not to for two reasons.

1. It would put Jerusalem in serious jeopardy. The Fatamids launched a holy war not soon after I took it in the first crusade and it was probably the bloodiest war in the Mediterranean region since the 2nd Punic War. Literally dozens of dukes from the Fatamid and Rum sultanates joined in, and nearly every King in Europe came to the defense of the Kaiser. It was ridiculous.

2. The Empire of Italia sucks ass. It's way to easy to establish and it's coat of arms is hideous.

So, my current plan is to expand within the HRE until I can usurp it. Not only is it the path of least resistance, it's thematically sound since I actually rule Rome and Jerusalem. Going well I think. I have already have cousin as a Duke of Franconia as a vassal and my son and heir is Duke of Bavaria.

However, I would be willing to change this plan if you guys can think of a cool enough Empire name for a custom title.

Waiting to start another game until HF comes out.  Looks interesting. I, also, have never finished a game.
