I'm convinced that all the talk about this game being hard to pick up is just veterans gatekeeping or trying to act like they're smarter than everyone else. I won my first SP game (against easy AI tbf) in 5 hours of playtime, and I SUCK at strategy games. This game is MUCH easier to learn than any paradox game or even Civ 3. It took me 15 hours in EU4 to win a single war, and in 20 hours on Civ 3 I've never won a game against the easiest AI. I'm still new to the game but my advice for other newbs is to just play as Ulm against easy AI until you're comfortable branching out to other nations and higher difficulties. Don't be afraid to learn by failing.

This game is too complicated to explain in a review. Simplifying it enough to cover it in broad strokes feels like it would miss the point; this is a mechanically extremely deep game with dense and developed systems. Nonetheless, I will make a brief attempt. You have extreme control over some aspects of the game (macro-scale movement, deity customization, spell research), while in other ways must learn to understand how your limited control will have ripple effects as situations play out (troop positioning for automated battles in combat, or learning to prepare for and deal with the consequences of brutal random events). If you want to play a 4X game where the endgame looks like trying to equip, deploy, and manage the automated casting of dozens of individual units each of which possesses power that could be considered comparable to a D&D 3.5e high-level Wizard as you watch them play out battles of incomprehensible devastation with ultra-low-quality indie graphics, then this is a game for you. If what I said instead sounds like a nightmare hellscape, you may want to pick a different game.

Wargame for freaks /pos Genuinely good. Also a complete mess to understand sometimes. Routing magic paths hurts my brain. Devs have been making their freak games for freaks for 3 decades at this point. The server is a single computer in their basement (there is a backup computer). It's hard to understand and opaque as hell even with external tools and wikis. Most people will bounce off of it, but people who latch onto it will love it.

When you first start playing this game, the unbelievable amount of content within will be overwhelming. You will be paralysed and unable to do anything. The later game has an unfun level of micromanaging as you are forced to manually sift through each potential spell, research tree, unit type, craftable item and army for every damn commander. So you watch some tutorials, play around a little, follow a guide. Then it starts clicking. You begin to know what summons work, and what don't. You can eye up army strengths relative to one another. You know which magic schools to research, what items to forge, and how to design a functional god for the particular strengths and weaknesses of your chosen nation. Then the game becomes more fun, and does not stop becoming more fun. The unreal amount of content becomes its biggest strength, for you can continually refine your strategy, and do increasingly fun things with increasingly less mental effort. If you have autism, and/or like dwarf fortress, factorio, or other games that require an unfun learning period - and you don't mind some jank in return for incredible mechanics, give it a go!
