First look at EU5 Estates + why it starts in 1337 (CONFIRMED) 

We are live NOW with EU4 multiplayer here - www.twitch.tv/zlewikktv

The Napoleonic Wars feel so much like a climax of the entire period, before industrialisation changes too many rules, that it's a fitting end for the game, like in EU4.

As a Bulgarian, I am glad I can finally play as BG without timeline mods :D

The fact that it isn't fully announced, and Johan has stated the UI isn't final gives me decent hope that changes will come to the UI. though it's still better than the Vic3 UI.

Small Ottomans? Oh no, Paradox pulled a reverse UNO here.

As a Turkish I didn't get upset for Ottomans being small. I am happy to see the *_T H U N D E R B O L T_*

Now that we have guessed the start date. It's time to guess the end date.

Wait is Paradox just making MEIOU and Taxes into a streamlined game? lol

The more tinto talks I see, the more it looks like the EU4 Meiou & Taxes mod (and that's a good thing!!)

It's dark because of Fog of War as Johan was playing as Aragon. Also Johan confirmed that there are coloured wastelands as an option.

This looks similar to MEIOU & Taxes The problem with MEIOU was that it was very ambitious in terms of features, but eu4 simply wasnt build in a way that could fully support those features. Hopefully EU5 is built in a way so that it could fully support those features. Also PDX should make sure that the game can use specs from the newer computer models.

1337 might allow us to play as pagan lithuania without timeline mods which I do like

Why is the map pale like Ck3, Imperator Rome, Victoria 3 and like all the recent Paradox Grand Strategy Games? I hope they make the colours more vibrant like Eu4. The map shown really looks like Ck3 in my opinion, which shouldn't be happening.

i think the end date will be around napoleonic wars. There was not much super new about that age, it was like a perfect climax with big amies, revolutinary states and such. They moved the start date 100 years before cuz many people drop the game in 1600 or so, they make medieval stage much longer meaning it will be harder to blob fast. It is reasonable provided that they develop tall gameplay better in eu5 since all that meadieval age u must not become bored.

Dude its march of the eagles 2 idk what you on about.But for real tho I hope we don't have a CK3 VIC3 moment where we need 2-3 years worth of dlc for the game to have as much flavor as the last game

I like modifiers stacking, it's funnier than having to face 8 years of war in the endgame with a country that has 1/10 of your provinces but has twice the size of your army.

Victoria 3 has broken me, I can't help but be sceptical about EU5, my faith in pdx after Vic3 is lacking

Holy shiet zlewikk nice hair

1337 - Kazimierz Wielki ma 27 lat w tym roku :)

The section where it says the estates' influence is affected by location almost certainly means pops contributing to the total power of the estate in different amounts depending on the location (e.g. 1000 nobles in the capital increase the power of the nobility by more than 1000 nobles in an unstated province). Then it calculates the average for the entire country and shows it on the screen with the powers and loyalties

That UI they showed with the estates is giving me major Stellaris vibes; Feels too out of place.

This new Rome Imperator 2 game looks great. i can't wait.

I am quite worried how they will model Polish-Lithuanian union. I really hated the heir and royal marriage system in EU4 and how completely random union could be.

I wonder what they'll do with Mesoamerica. 1337 start date might improve gameplay over there. I get the pre-Columbian civilisations over there probably won't have much content because most people will not play there beyond maybe fumbling about out of curiosity but Im still curious about what thats going to look like

Hej Zlewikk. Trzeba lobbować w Paradoxie żeby była polska wersja językowa.😉

Man I HATE this new style that paradox has adopted for its games. It needs to be dropped. Identical between CK VICKY and now EU. So unpleasant.

Eu5 personally doesn’t sound very fun just yet. Personally I tend to play paradox games for roleplay and half of the time in that in power fantasy format, not to mention I’ve never felt that difficulty necessarily equals fun (and quite often the exact opposite). Not to mention that the overlap is going to make mega campaigns feel rather off and having eu4 start off in the late medieval age also makes it feel like it’s missing the point of the timeframe of the EU franchise. That said, we’ll have to wait to see more info over time.

Im really positive about this Eu5 , but that esthetic look similar to Vic3 and i don't like it. But for the rest, open mind about it.

No no no, please don't make us depend on the AI estates to build something usefull, especially if it's marked as "probably", "sometimes" or else.

wow I am the first one watching 55 seconds ago :D

Unpopular take: I hate colored wastelands.

I said this on Andy's Paradox video. EU5 going take years post launch to be what EU4 has been the last 4-5yrs. Based off this dev diary they are probably giving us a shit estate system with future DLC we have to buy to update it.

Every single game since after HOI4 has removed the ability to design your own army and forces you to use these levies which you barely have any control over. I actually like warfare, why do they have to make it so boring and easy in all of their future games.

Game will be a mix of vic 3 and imparator rome mark my words

There semesterbeginn to be a bit of similarity with meiou and taxes

*someone should have asked if there are features to manage things like sanitation, irrigation/fertility and communication* For example have sanitation buildings/feature to reduce the likelihood and impact of disease outbreaks. Irrigation/fertility to influence food productions Communications to influence how much revenue/manpower you get from a particular location

One thing I hope they fix is late game blobbing. Almost every game turns into a repeated slog fest between the player and a second power, usually the Ottomans. Maybe via creating significant administration problems.

"Every 1000 nobles contributes 50 power to the Estate". Well, I guess this is how governing capacity is now being implemented. If you expand your country too much without government reforms/ buildings, then there will be too many nobles. And so too much power of the nobility. I guess there will be a building similar to courthouses which reduces the power contribution to the estate from nobles of that location.

Zastanawia mnie jak gra rozwiąże problem kolonizacji, bo jeżeli to nadal będzie tak jak teraz, to kolonizacja zaczęła by się o wiele, wiele wcześniej, co raczej nie powinno mieć miejsca.

Od tego studia nie oczekuje już niczego normalnego, wyjdzie takie zajebiste jak victoria 3 xDD przygotujcie zielone na wyrzucenie w błotko, pozdro

The game better include the french revolution 😭😭😭. The current mechanics of it are super boring. I'd like a revamped and more in depth version of it. It'd better not end with Louis xiv... What game can I play to play the french revolution :'(

Not a fan of the CK3 VIC3 map look...

I think estate being modified on every location means there will be a modifier for types of location. Ex : burgers being more influencial in urban centers, clergy being more influencial in mountains or in certain specific areas (mount atos in greece), nobility having special bonus in rural areas ...

I do like there being a hint about a food system. Which was a big factor famines who wrecked empires, same for plagued. Now when theres a disease in eu 4 you barely notice it economicly or by manpower.

Estates mechanics in eu4 was awful, especially for new players. Feels bad they going with it again in eu5...

Saruhan's color is sad rn, "Saruhan" literally means "Yellow Khan"

looks a lot like vic3...

Estates are really important in both game and reality. Really glad to see the company is improving the game quality.

New game appears to be son of Modded EU4 and Imperatore Rome so far. Might be rather concerning

I love colony on Greenland option. I hope for early colonisation runs. American vikings anyone?

wdym having like -50& or even more cc isnt balanced and as the game was intended

I hope they will use new engine for this game. Not old shitty one for eu3 times

Balkanbros are so back with that date update

The 100 Years War began in 1337 exactly.

it looks way too much like imperator or ck3 to me

Bruh we still don't know if this is EUV, it could be a new game too.. they call it project caesar for a reason

Perez Michael Martin Linda Jackson Helen

This is gonna be the biggest dissapointment ever

Ja bym się nie napalał pewno to zepsują jak Victorie III. I dadzą dużo "nowej amerykańskiej szkoły" tworzenia gier.

I guess MAMLUKS gonna get the REVENGE for 10 years of humiliation during eu4 era

3:02 mnie to strasznie zalatuje takim vibe-m victorii 3. Znaczy nie mam tej gry, ale jakoś iorąc pod uwagę te gameplaye które oglądałem to UI tam wyglądało dla mnie bardzo podobnie w szczególności to z budową rządu (?) w sensie przemysłowcy/właściciele ziemscy/kler itd.

Just started playing MEIOU & TAXES right as these tinto talks were coming out and you can see the similarities lol, very excited

Hey, as long as those goofy 3d characters paradox has been using for Vic3 and CK3 aren’t in the game, I’m happy.

5:26 Hopefully it'll get automated, but that automation should be considerably less effective than player micromanagement, otherwise it's pointless to have the local power level ingame

Whats with Paradox switching to an arcade game UI. Victoria 3 and now EUV. It looks like something you'd see at casinos.

Interesting to see the meiou and taxes influence.

with province and estates, i think estates will have different power in a region based on type of region. Like burghers being stronger trade centers. It might also affect the location of investment made by the estates

wait is this during the time of the PLC- Hungary Commonwealth?

I hope they will only focus on that date

YES, MEIOU&Taxes mechanics all the way!

I agree with ironman being needed for achievement, we're not babies...

The game takes place during the renaissance does it make sense that the clergy impacts research speed and not conversion speed?

Keep Johan far away from EU5

i hope it is not too similar to vic 3, i would hate eu series going the same way

Yippee! My comment made it!

most important thing is that there will be combat in the game, not a shit like vic3

you don't think april 1st is an april fools joke?

Радий, що ти дізнався, як знімається шляпа)

Where's your hat?

Mehmet ambition become Bayazid ambition achievment

I am still so worried they will do the same thing they did to VIC3 which could kill EU4/5 by splitting the playerbase.

I also hate the colored map lol.

Where is your hat?

March of The Eagles 2 👀

zleiwikks yes is very powerful!

We have to suffer through "byzantium" again and not, at least Eastern Roman Empire?

:O

EU4-II

Czy ktoś z komentujących grał sporo w CK2/VIC2 przed wyjściem ich następców i pamięta jak wyglądały ostatnie dlc-ki do tamtych gier? Bo obawiam się, że jak EUV wyjdzie to będzie tak samo wykastrowane jak CK3/VIC3 i po prostu dla nas jako graczy EU IV będzie nie grywalne/zbyt proste, bo mam wrażenie, że z każdą grą paradoxu poziom trudności się zmniejsza

Would love a different mission system socits easier for more nations to have decent and fun missions The hope of a tall Croatia remains

Everything about this game visuals looks terrible. Even the map itself. Like even if it would be the best game ever, i woulf not be abe to look at this. They need to fix that.

this start date will give a lot of flexibility to Spain
