You know you're addicted to PC gaming when....

OOOOH! Can I get in on an EU3 mp game?

[Secura]

Also depends on the nation the person picks.

I fail at 99.9% of them, and that's with stuff like inflation turned off and the difficulty on Very Easy as well; Beskar usually gives me a slight advantage in tech/ducats over my neighbours so that I'm not steamrollered within the first five years. Strategy isn't really my forte, but I enjoy the historical aspects of the game and seeing my country's name in big letters across the map... I can be so superficial when it comes to EU3.

'pends what your checksum thingy is, I guess; I've been tampering with files and mine's completely different to Beskar's now, so I might have to clean install to get the checksum back. :<

Prussian. Well they were basically identical and tbqh I'm not a good person to compare the two as i played oblivion ala 360 and morrowind computer. Both had advantages, morrowind being variety of weapons greater like spears and oblivion in graphics and I think ranged combat and deflection especially.

And I'm ALWAYS an archer in rpgs so I feel qualified to speak on ranged combat. (Not sure why just don't like getting my hands dirty lol)

ah yes archery was far better in obliv. morriwnd archery is crazy, you shoot and it goes off at like a 45 degree angle from where it should haev gone, even when firing downward!

You can just replace the decisions folder with a clean one, i've been tampering with mine as well, to suit the playstyles of my friends (halved infamy costs, 20 years for a core) We're not using the beta patches, and they non stop complain if its not on very easy with no inflation, so i've been playing plenty of that.

It took me about 60 hours, then a break for a year, then another 5 or 10, to be able to survive as a OPM (one province minor) Once I worked out the economy I was kind of ok.
