That doesn’t matter. Ottomans took Austria out of the war.
Ha! You seem to know more about my game than I do, I'm impressed!

No they didn't. Austria didn't border Ottoman's at the time, and Austria only sent a small army over to prevent Otto armies sweeping in. The majority of their forces stayed inside Austria with some helping out Burgundy.

I know this.
You losing that war does not prove the AI is competent as we know that would not normally happen. Most players would have won that war.

The new mercs alone make the game unplayable several times over.
Personaly i just devmode myself however much manpower i think i should have if i was using the old mercs.
Give them back now.

Subjects are as incompetent as ever with the added benefit of them not properly converting nowadays.

Gov Reforms are as restrictive and unfun as ever. But at this point im more amazed at how boring the Monarchy tree is
and how little choice the tiers have.

The schizophreni between restricive GovCap, excessive courthouse micro and unstated land destroying reformprogress gain
makes me feel like im doing pointless clicking.
Got slightly better after i started using the mod for no-slot courthouses and increases the effect of townhalls to 80% so i dont need statehouses aswell.
Got even better after i stopped giving a shit about unstated land and just devmode points in once i think its time for the next reform.

The new estates, while not bad per se, are way less interesting to use than the old ones.
Especialy the Crownland minigame becomes such a drag after a while.
Got better after i moded out the "dev a province" missions. Pieces of shit wasting my points.

Eventualy i also started modding missions that had arbitrary nonsense in them.
Cant for Sard-Pi as a Theocracy? GTFO.
Build 15 Galleys! Nope. I have 50 Heavies, how about those?
Be the DotF! My religion does not have that. Why does this Mission not have a fallback?

The game is still recognizable as EU4 but it has degraded alot from
what it was 4 years ago in the ~1.24 era.

Ahahahaha alright, yeah I also know exactly what's going on in everyone's games too. They're all the same really, no differences whatsoever. Each and every game plays out exactly the same, it's odd to think but that's the truth!

What happened? :D

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a leviathan, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the leviathan stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

Damn, I was always present for the interesting stuff :D bugs I guess?
Yep bugs, missing content and just general issues. Was not a good release at all, the worst in Paradox history I would wager, many, including myself, were extremely disappointed. If you really want to know, scroll for the Leviathan mega thread that was created, plenty of stuff in there about it. But as gigau said, it's still a hot topic, so try not to revive any dead threads or invoke more discussion about it.

Not necessarily. I bought a new PC 2 weeks ago. In my Mali and Tunis runs I didn't experience any lag during the 30 years war, nor in the late game. It was as smooth as it was still 1444.
