There's a country named York, yes. IIRC it's releasable from the start; it has a core on Yorkshire.
Hm, I might have been confusing it with Northumbria...Releasable via loosing a war, or through vassal release? Because I've booted up every scenario, and there is no such option to release it through the second method. I thought the same thing until I realized it was Northumbria that I was thinking of.
Unless they've changed things greatly with the latest version Northumbria starts off with a core and is releasable, Lancaster and York however are countries but don't start off with any cores so you need nationalist rebels to create them before they can be released/revolt. The only problem is that since they both have English as their primary culture then nationalist rebels can't occur is the owner also has the English culture. To get nationalist rebels you'd need to have their provinces be owned by someone with a culture other than English and then a bit of luck since IIRC a lot of the time you'd simply get regular English patriots.Hm, I might have been confusing it with Northumbria... Well, for it to exist or at least a core, I think it requires York Nationalists or the sort. It doesn't happen very often in my games so I can't really say.
Westernizing is a real hassle.
Excited about #4?
I don't like the fact that they have a 'westernize' option in EU3.Westernizing is a real hassle.
I don't like the fact that they have a 'westernize' option in EU3.
I mean the system is a bit weird. If I'm playing as a Chinese or Indian state, why should I need to westernize? If I maintain steady tech growth I should already be ahead of any European powers. I understand its use in Victoria, where it makes sense. But in EU3, which starts in 1399 (or 1356).....eh.Why not? It's the only way you can compete with the European powers when you're playing as one of the lower tech civs. It's like pulling a Meiji.

The fact that you would need to pull a Meiji in EU3 bothers me. Yes.
I think they mentioned something like that in the EU4 developer diaries. The technology system will be completely overhauled, and I suppose that means deterministic technology growth goes.
I was a fan of Europa Universalis II for ages until it died
Now I'm getting bored of my other games I am thinking of buying Europa Universalis III
How is EUIII different from EUII? Is it harder or easier?
Is this product a good one to buy? I'd rather buy an actual physical one rather than a download because I'm not too download literate lol
EU3 is awesome, but wait for something over half a year and you'll have EU4. In the meantime, try Crusader Kings II.
Unless his computer can't handle EU4 or CK2, that is. They're quite resource-heavy.
