Best let's play videos for beginners?

[sinanziric]

Hello I am CK2 player, I've bought EU4 expansions on flash sale and I would like to learn ALL things (I don't like learning things during gameplay).

I think let's play videos are the best choice, can anyone suggest the best ones since there are quite a few of them on youtube?

(I am not complete noob, I've played EU4) but I missed most of expansion packs.

There are loads out there. The funniest ones are DDRJake, Siu-King and FlorryWorry.

However, to begin with, go for Remans Paradox
Then go for The Blobber

In the end, you're best off just playing the tutorial and practicing. Perhaps check out wiki guides on specific topics if you're feeling stuck

I found this series pretty useful, although it doesn't cover recent expansions it's more than enough to get started with.

Let's Learn Europa Universalis IV

Arumba. I would say Quill18 but he hasn't played recently IIRC so his stuff may not be up to date. DDRJake is good as well as already suggested. The Paradox dev clash also isn't too bad to learn a few "pro" strats.

Arumba.

No, seriously, can we stop recommending Arumba to new players?
All his good stuff is outdated, all his new stuff is horrible.

We're talking about the guy who made Big Blue Blob look difficult.

If you have more than 100 hours and still haven't surpassed him I'd recommend doing the exact opposite of what you're doing in every possible scenario. It can only get better.

Thank you for suggestions

I am playing Ottomans on very easy..

I've mastered Trade and Ships by watching several good Guides from Remans Paradox

There are still things I need to understand but I'll use wiki and try them myself

Cheers gus.

For a first time Ottoman game I would recommend Siu King since he recently did a run. Just make sure to play slower in your own game.

I like shenryrr videos aswell. I learnt playing watching him some years ago. he also explains a lot of stuff while on stream

Lots of people say Arumba or Quill18 and fair enough, they've got a track record of longevity, but there are dozens of others out there who bring lets say, some more character to proceedings.

Marbozir does some great Civ 6 vids and used to do EU4 - someone needs to bring him back into play.

Arumba is great letsplayer to get to know the game.
For in depth analysis on specific subjects go to Remans Paradox. (As a bonus his video's are the best edited EUIV content on Youtube)

And once you get to know the game a bit better I'd recommend EUIV's very own game director DDRjake.
