So we buying this on Day One or waiting? What's the Languish consensus?

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

Yeah, pre-ordered and ready to get more grey hairs.  :)

Waiting to get a new pc to be able to handle it. I'm looking forward to it, though!

Is that old grandpa Johan? God damn we have grown old. I was only a starry-eyed 20 years old when EU1 came out.

Yeah, bit worried about that. I do meet the minimum specs, but not the recommended.

I was 24. And I got the board game and started to unsuccessfully play it in 1996 when I was 19. So freaking old now.

My son is really fired up for EUV. I am going to try to play it with him, but he just has so much more time for games than I do  :lol:

In previews there appears to be a bit of a lack of AI forming countries (Spain, Russia, ...). Johan says it's because the AI is "too good", making sure they have enough allies so they're not gobbled up.  :hmm:

Alternatively, maybe it's too easy to get alliances? I guess we'll know on Tuesday or so. :P

The spec demands are scary.

I have a processor and card that runs RDR2, KCD2, Dishonored 2 and most games in 4k with no issue, but EUV apparently demands a lot of CPU power.

Oh, well.

This Romanian Youtuber guy was claiming that if you switch to the 2D map mode, you shant' have any problems as long as you are above minimum spec. Will see, I never bother to look at the 3D map in any of the Paradox games so it's an easy choice to turn it off.

I think my specs are reasonably well above minimum but my CPU is well below recommended

But they can be so pretty. :wub: I love my little cities in Victoria 3 :D  :blush:

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.
