And I love it! Just playing everything default, Castille and England mostly so far, trying to colonize rapidly. Beginner mistake, I know now. Such a learning curve. I'd like to get to the point where I know from experience what people mean when they say the endgame is easy. So many hours. But every play I learn something new.
And I'm a longtime fan of the genre. MOO, Railroad Tycoon III, I'll never give up these great old games. But I always quickly get good at "winning" them. I don't even know that EU is a game, since it has no win conditions. Yet it keeps me coming back, trying again, play tighter, I know eventually I'll be able to manage a colonial empire without falling too far behind on everything else. Why do they let me mint????
So, just curious, I got it on GOG and just IN, and so far it's frustrating as hell and I'm far from feeling satisfied, so of course I want to keep playing it. But maybe I should move on to DW or EU4 or some other game. But is EU3 In Nomine good enough by itself to be worth the playtime? I know significant changes were implemented after IN, and I'm not sure the consensus is that the game got better. I mean, everybody loves EU4, but I'm an old gamer, I don't mind cumbersome UI. For me, the game itself is what's important. Rogelikes/Angband with the simplest graphics imaginable are compelling enough for me. Which EU iteration is actually the best game?
