[PC] Europa Universalis 3

Is anybody playing this yet? I bought it the other day through Gamersgate and I just can't stop playing.

This is a huge improvement on Europa Universalis. If you've loved any of the Paradox games, you have to give three a try.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well this one's pretty ballin'. There's no greater joy than gradually forcing the Ottomans out of the Balkans as Hungary.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Well, I mean, you don't NEED to use advanced pixel shading, and to be honest I do enjoy the transition from 2D to 3D because they've kept the boardgame feel while applying smooth visual cues that are difficult at best to use in a 2D game.

The most graphically-intensive thing about the game is geographic mode, though. It's the only way to get an idea of what kind of terrain your armies may battle on in a province, and it's probably the worst part of the transition.

Another issue I have is that there's no Production view that displays what kind of goods each province produces. I mean, you can check your own ledger and see all of the province data, but I'm talking about other provinces, so you don't have to go through the trouble of clicking on each individual one. It's still a great game, though.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
