You get some very nice new focus trees which certainly livens up the Balkan and Middle East region. I've enjoyed playing through them. Obviously, if these countries don't tickle your fancy, you can safely skip it.
I just picked this up because I wanted to play as a strong France with lots more options and events than before. I had a blast forming an alliance with the USSR and trying to hold off the Germans together with our communist allies! But there's lots more you can do with them. And then there's Spain! The entire Spanish civil war was reworked and is a lot more interesting now. Portugal also got a new focus tree so if you like to play around with minors, that's an excellent new option for you. They added a new intelligence feature. You can use spies to do all sorts of things but honestly, it felt a little undercooked and I barely used it. But hey, for me it was just a bonus to play around with.
New focus trees for Mexico, Canada, USA and UK. You get to play around with different ship builds depending on what you research. Lots of alternate history, better naval game...what's not to like?
This game is one of my all time favourites. The usual (Paradox) conquest element is mixed with personalities that make each playthrough unique and memorable. You can paint the map or hunker down and roleplay with your dynasty members. You can create a dynasty. You can create a religion. You can create kingdoms and empires. Go create your own history!
Good game. Good franchise. These games are a wholly unique experience. One moment you're this badass gangster and the next you're handing out porn mags to kids and discussing business with a chicken after singing some karaoke. Serious stories mixed with fun, whacky sub stories.
I've been having a blast playing this. 40+ hours in and I'm still learning and improving. There are some small things that annoy you here and there but overall it's a lot of fun. Maybe one of these days I'll actually play as Rome.
Specific mission trees for the successor states gives you a sense of purpose and helps you to create a certain narrative in your game. I didn't think much of the wonder builder at first but they add another fun element to think about. I thought it would be end game stuff but you can accumulate a lot of money pretty quickly as some states.
The game puts you in the shoes of a dude who's having second thoughts about his prospective marriage with his girlfriend (a baby on the way too). In steps a buxom young beauty who tempts you to leave it all behind.
Chaos ensues. The puzzle game of moving blocks around takes place as nightmares. Every night is a new puzzle stage. They get progressively harder as the game progresses and I truly mean that. This game is hard...and I played on normal. Thankfully the game has a nice soundtrack to accompany you and when you finally reach the top on those challenging stages...well, it makes you want to take a chance with a hot blonde!
The amount of dlc's for this game makes your head spin. These content packs are strictly speaking unnecessary but still essential if you know what I mean.
