Everything change either slightly or massively. The game was coded from the ground up and the content redesigned completely for the newer game. While it's possible to list all the changes I think it's better that you mind Imperator as a new game with new mechanics inspired by EU: Rome
We have few elements of I:R , but at a first glance they are the same differences between EU2 and EU4...
Which are quite few: both EU games deal with Europe and Colonization.. [warning: irony here

There are plenty of differences! You'll see them each week in Johan's development diaries
Hope you will like what we are preparing for you guys!

I am keeping the faith, mate, but by now everything looks pretty much similar.
Similiar, as opposed to identical, indicates that there are differences
What is the difference between a large neon bulb and a small candle except the fact that it provides light ?
oh, you ...!Similiar, as opposed to identical, indicates that there are differences
I do see some differences to be fair but I have the impression that the mechanics are pretty much the same. one might expect that as Rome1 was not perfect something fundamental would change.
EU: Rome is basically a rough diamond, the ideas are really interesting but the execution is lacking and EU: Rome is quite old.oh, you ...!

Trade for example, yes there are similarities but gone are the old system in which you needed to be extremely careful with what province trade with what to maximize the amount of trades you could make.
The worst part in trade was that it was a pain to get trade with AI so you would end up trading with yourself because the AI would end up doing the same, only OPM would not but then a few months after game start they would have found their trade partners for a lifetime and would never change that unless the province is occupied and the trade canceled (if it was you trading with them there would be a fair chance you'd be screwed with the AI trading with someone else befoer you ask to setup again the route
).I Hope if I make a trade agreement that the other part have no say in which trade I make with them as in HOIIV as that systm work well. On the other hand they would do the same against you.
I like that system because it don't create irritating pop up messages and it simply work well.

Well, I hope they fixed AI war resolution, because that was really a huge bummer back then.
lol. Load up CK2, EU4 or HOI4 and then load up EU:R and tell me the graphical improvements are just visual.
Yeah, this is like saying "CK2 is just like CK1, but with graphical improvements!" Uh, no.
Well, in same principle we can ask what differences are between EU3 and EU4, CK and CK2 or HOI3 and HOI4, those are basically just some improvements and changes to existing series (Yes, HOI4 is divisive and all but meant the principle...)
thanks to all agree or disagree and replies. graphical changes is important,very important but the game mechanics is more important. I mean witch mechanics added or removed or changed from Rome1 to Imperator? which new mechanic will introduce? for example world market mechanic in Vic2 was a new mechanic or front line mechanics in HOI4 was a new mechanic . of course Johan's development diaries describes a lot but a list of changes from what we will see in Imperator maybe shows better the differences.
HoI4 divisive? You should have seen when the trainwreck HoI3 arrived at the station...
