More like the usual Steam release time - 9 am PST. (I think US is already back in winter time? We switch next week.)
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

From the reviews it seems that war and diplomacy might need some polishing, but economy and politics, the core of the game, work well.

Yeah that seems to be the general consensus.

My only worry now is that the first expansion pack adds something like a Design Your Own Dreadnought hehehe functionality instead of improving what seems to need the most improvement, diplomacy. Now designing my own dreadnought would be cool, yes, but my man, you need to flesh out the core components of the game first, my dudes.

That said, I caved in and bought the game. I am a hypocrite, but seeing that the economic side of the game actually works and reading Prof Devereaux's blog tipped me over.  :blush:

ACOUP's review prevented me from asking for a refund.  :lol:
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Spent about an hour on the tutorial, and another hour watching Quill18

I now have a super migraine. I think the learning curve on this is going to be quite high.

Just play it and destroy the UK from within a few times. School of hard knocks.

Have you tried launching the exe directly?

I just had a severe ctd after like 4 years of gameplay when I was alt-tabbing out for the upteenth time. Maybe I'll run in it borderless window mode.

Far worse is that Egypt took over Constantinople in a peace deal.  :lol:  (I am Sweden)

But the economic and political systems are fascinating so far. Endless levels of tooltips to try and figure your economy out. Nice.

Just curious is there a straightforward way to transfer in a EU4 save and transfer out a HOI4 save or is that something Paradox no longer even attempts to do?
