Well, I feel that I must take back the things I have said about EUIV's 3D world now that I've seen more of it. At first glance I thought "Oh, it just looks like Crusader Kings II now" but EUIV does look quite a bit better than CKII, I have also now seen the trade route map and I just think it looks awesome. So yeah, case closed, the 3D world looks awesome; I was wrong. It's rather nice how my opinion has changed.

Thank you, there is quite a bit of difference. Nice of you to notice.
 
This makes me think that it's really weird that Pdox always shows geographical in trailers and sneak peaks.

Because it looks good and trailers are about visuals. Showing someone scrutinizing the ledger doesn't really have the same zing to it. Just because players in the past haven't played in the terrain map mode is not a reason to not try to improve it. We aim to make the terrain map mode carry more vital information so that you actually want to play that way.
