Very nice survey, the possibility to give feedback is always welcome! Now if more gaming companies would only take the same approach...

The main thing I'd like to see is stuff like we can find in the wiki: perhaps a country-specific tutorial that suggests, for instance, how many divisions of a given type a country might need, or how to deploy air wings or naval fleets in reasonable ways. Not so much of the "this is how the interface works", and a bit more of the "this is the stuff you'd know if you were a real country leader, let us fill that gap for you since you've never trained to be such a person."
Tutorials should take the form of a small playable scenario instead of simply pointing out parts of the interface. I had to take breaks for the tutorials in HOI2 and EU2, and the one for HOI3 put me to sleep. Learning the game should be more engaging than that, as it forms the first impression of the game.
I guess that this survey is not about to be serving primarily for the purposes of Paradox. It is said to be used for a university thesis...
AFAIK EU: Rome was the least successfull Paradox title, maybe that's why
On the forums, yes. But saleswise, it did better than most PI titles to date IIRC.
I enjoy tutorials in adventure or RPG games, where it's usually already the story unfolding before my eyes and the elements of interface are added throughout the tutorial. But such tutorials are impossible in the kind of games Paradox develops...
Done did it.
If, by chance, I do win, please drop the winnings back into the pot and draw again. I'm going off line somewhere around the middle of the month and have zero clue when I'll be able to come back.

I love the level of consumer interaction that Paradox has with gamers...Keep it up!
As I put in the survey, actual game philosophy in addition to just explaining the mechanics would be useful. In games as complicated as this just telling me what the buttons do and what my objectives are isn't really useful. I need some basic tips on how to go about achieving those objectives.

Why not delete this thread if the questionaire is not available any longer. The thread is being abused anyway.
