I started playing Anbennar this week and it completely revitalized EU4 for me, I hadn't been really into the game for years.

TorakFade posted:Got it thanks. is there an equivalent to Portugal or Spain? E.g. decent enough to hold their own in the mainland through friends/position/power, but definitely supposed to not expand that much there and just go ham colonizing the rest of the world? For some odd reason I've always loved EU4 colonization even though it's weird and clunky Verne is pretty much Spain. The Elves at the very southwestern island (forgot their names) are kind of like Portugal in that they are very much focused on exploring and settling into the new world (or destroyed old world in their case), with eventually outright migrating there.

Anbennar friggin' slaps. I think I mentioned before how it revitalized EU4 for me after burning out on the game half a decade ago, but I've bought like three DLCs because of it and I often find myself thinking about what I am going to try out next.

Torrannor posted:And the Anbennar dev diaries have me much more excited than the Paradox dev diaries. Same. I mean, they are essentially "here's cool new content" instead of "this is how we're breaking your game next".

Going to second Verne as a great learner faction for Anbennar.

Does disabling a region also make it so those provinces are impossible to colonize?

soviet elsa posted:Is there a good country to start as in Anbennar that will give you enough of a lore dump to get situated? I would suggest one of the medium to large-sized countries in not-Europe. They are built on relatively familiar tropes and shouldn't have anything too crazy going on in terms of difficulty. Grombar is a very interesting option, as it is a grey orc kingdom that has to figure out between going full orc or integrating its orc aristocratic class with the native humans it recently conquered, which will have you interacting with some of the setting's major historical events and the pop mechanics. also, just read the likely EU5 dev diary and I am not enthused. I was hoping for a mechanics flush from EU4 to EU5, not "we will try Imperator Rome, but harder". I think a lot of the reason why EU4 works is how boardgamey several of its mechanics are and going full sim feels like playing to PDS' weaknesses as a studio.

Yeah, Escann is my favourite part of Anbennar, so much variety in the starts and how the region consolidates in the first century.

I do enjoy playing spawnables because it is like a fresh start a century in, which lets me see more of the mid-late content. Only time I saw the Phoenix Empire form was when the I played the Sun Elf Cortez and the AI finished what I began.

their metrics told them that people usually stop their games in the mid-late 1600s so they changed the start date to like a hundred years earlier so the game will end in the early 1700s and so people will play all of it

Well, if EU5 is built off Imperator it better be an evolution similar to CK2 from Sengoku.

Vicky 3 for me is like an Anno game but without all the things that make Anno beautiful and fun.

Yeah, sub is easily the best option if you haven't been buying the DLCs as they came out, in which case you've been paying an interminent sub anyway.
