[The Minsky Moment]

Wait until after he runs the marathon, and is tired out. Only then is it safe.

Essential update.

Does anyone play natives? I thought about it once, back when the conquistadors update came out, but never did.

I guess if you've painted the world with all other nations they might be worth a go?

I tried once, but it is very frustrating being completely dependent on effectively being assimilated to the ways of the colonizers.

Currently playing 1.30 with Venice and I really enjoy it. So far, I am in the 1540s and have more or less destroyed the Ottomans and reached hegemony in Northern Italy. But Austria, France and the Man like are a threat.

So... Still not fun to play a small natio?

Last time I played, as France, trying to learn, I messed up one war and was in a death spiral by 1520s because everyone was like "France has no troops! Awesome! Let's invade!"

Europa Universalis is celebrating its 20th anniversary. I checked my account on P'dox. I joined in April 2001, almost at the beginning.

Man, what a waste of life

Surely only half a life?


The other half you're wasting here.

Come on. Sure, after gazillion of hours spent playing the 4 games (not to mention their other games following largely the same formula) I have longer and longer breaks between shorter and shorter times of playing EU, but the bloody thing felt revolutionary back in 1999/2000. It was a level of historical gaming I did not anticipate would come. Sure, a lot of it was in the player's head and I am increasingly unable to look past the deficiencies, but still. It was a fun ride.

Well we could have wasted it all on drink and women............damn........we really have screwed up 

[Josephus]

I have been pretty consistent in playing P'dox games since then, almost exclusively with the exception of Football Manager.
Every now and then, I'll buy something different, play it heavily for a month or so, and then go back to P'dox.

Right now I'll play some FM, before alternating daily between EUIV and CKIII
