On 4 November, Europa Universalis V released, I was very excited since I pre-ordered the game
I played it for about 100 hours so far
I am very pleased with the direction that Paradox Interactive decided to go with this game.
EU4 feels "arcade-like" in comparison, whereas this game is very complex and difficult to understand.
However, it seems to lack polish, the interface is hard to read, and worst of all, the AI is very incompetent. As of 1.0.7, the AI requires serious work, as it is not capable of utilising the games mechanics...
But compared to other releases by Paradox Interactive, its very feature-full and fun.
One could not say this about Victoria 3 ...
Overall, my rating is that the game is 70% good, and 30% bad
[P.S]
As for the negotiations about Kolyma Network, the necessary key-holders are not able to help me. Unfortunately, I do not have the rights to start it again. So, that is the end of that, isn't it?...
I guess I can just take things in a totally new direction!
