it's to the point with pdx games that you're almost glad a game died because it means it will be a) affordable due to the publisher losing interest in pushing dlc for it and b) playable, because said lack of dlc means the game has a stable ecosystem for mods that isn't disrupted constantly due to usually half-baked content that takes years to iron out fixes for, if ever

Incredible game now after the 2.0 update and with the "Invictus" community mod which basically functions as the unofficial 3.0 update and vanilla+ extension/flavour update. The game combines some of the most interesting mechanics from other Paradox games such as distinct government types, mission trees, courtyard and character interaction as well as population types/social classes from Europa Universalis, Crusader Kings and the Victoria series respectively.

A criminally underrated game - paradox really should just hire the Invictus Mod team to run the development of the game at this point.

If you enjoy in depth combat, this one is for you. Also, cheapest paradox game, you don’t need to spend 250$ to get all the features. This one has very enjoyable combat, economy management and I really enjoy the different ways you build your nation. And one last suggestion, highly recommend playing with Invictus mod. This is one of my favourite paradox games, it’s a bit tough to get into, it has very unique features compared to other paradox games, but it’s totally worth the learning curve. For me, this and EU4 are top choice for Paradox games.

Great game too bad paradox left this one on the shelf But the invictus mod does a great job in making this 7/10 game into a 9/10 if you're gonna play it give this mod a try
