Scared and confused

Hi, i used to play EU4 load untill i got to a point that there was nothing interesting to do anymore. so i moved on to other games.Now i wanted to play a game last night and i realised, after all these patches, this is not even close to being the same game it used to be. Could anyone point me to some decent and up to date guides or strategies? I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around all these new mechanics and it's really keeping me from enjoying this game. I havent even gotten around to picking a nation...

I believe the ParadoxExtra channel has tutorials.
Other than that you can watch the various Let's Plays around.

use the http://www.eu4wiki.com

that's how i caught up with things upon recently getting back into this game

If you're not the ' Let play ' watcher type, read the wiki.
It's precise, well written, all you need.

Changes to the rebels were the biggie for me to get around, but yeah the wiki helps A LOT for the new mechanics.

If you played it before, I really think you'd be better off to just start playing and then use the wiki whenever you see something you don't understand immediately. I'm not sure anything really fundamental changed.

Just dive in - the water's nice. I hadn't played since 1.3 and you'll pick up all the changes pretty quickly once you start with a nation.
