Still firing up EU2 every now again and enjoying it. 

Anyone have EU3?  Thoughts?  :w00t:

EU3 is installed on my computer. :)

EU3 is only tolerable with the expansions. Personally, I'd stick with EU2.

It can be amusing with the latest Magna Mundi version.

It's enjoyable and can seem deeper than EUII with MM.

I'd say that even without the mods (but with the expansions), it's deeper than EUII.  Well, even without the expansions, it's probably deeper than EUII, but there are so many problems with the pre-expansion version I wouldn't recommend playing it that way.

Needs a supercomputer to play.
Not good.

Get both expansions at the very least and it is enjoyable...but man the game plays so slowly on my machine.

With both expansions I think it's very fun indeed :)
Let's bomb Russia!

whack-a-mole with rebels/enemies is far too annoying for my taste  :mad:

That's why Martinus, for all his spending on the trappings of wealth and taste, will never really have class.  He's just trying too hard to be something he isn't (an intelligent, tasteful gentleman), trying desperately to hide what he is (Polish trash with money and a severe behavioral disorder), and it shows in everything he says and does.  He's not our equal, not by a mile.

I prefer the SRI mod: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?t=381384

Its a bit like Magna Mundi Light with an AI that actually wages war instead of getting stuff by events.

I got the pack with both expansions. What does NA do? I remembered someone saying In Nomine made it a totally new, much better game, but is there any reason to play with Napoleon at all?

NA is a prerequisite for IN. Thats all.

I agree with the depth comment, but sometimes, I find it hard to really see how land enclosure in Navarra will bring about 200 years later.   -_-

NA also makes EU3 a lot faster than it originally was in vanilla.
