I like IR much better than EU4, i allways liked it better even at initial launch, but...it has the typical paradox problems.(clunky bad ui, bad battles)
I think the best paradox game for me is Hearts of iron 4, there the battles/strategy are very satisfying.
What i like about IR is that it succeds about being an empire simulator, something EU4 never achieved.
-Multiplayer lobby is a joke. Doesnt show which games you can join or not. Trial and error says paradox.
You cant join multiplayer games, if you are using any kind of mod. Not even simple visual mods. Whats the point.
-poor peace deals and war preparations
you cant claim or cede a land through ur subjects...this is very stupid situation
It still has some basic features missing from UI, for example:
ingame ledger is totally useless, its shows no real information of power
-Managing families are not fun, especially the marriage. Republics are better choice. Big issue is for example i dont get notifiaction when my familiy members get old enough for marriage and for having a tutor, means i am often late.
-cohorts being 500 instead of 1000 in number is confusing/ missleading. Should have stayed 1000. Give me info fast and simple.
-Trading is broken. Other than domestic trade there is not much room for other. The only time period where we can actually trade are the starting months.
-Civil war. First problem is that we cant cancel alliance or make peace deal with revolted force if our ally gets a civil war.
Second problem is when revolters are getting ships and the following situation happens: Ships block off ground army to travel to the islands, and the civil war become endless, since the "loyalist" has no acces to ships, and revolters are weak in ground. After 20 yrs i restarted the game.
