Two things need fixing: the floor gets dirty too fast (every 10s) and the AI art on the walls is poor. The rest is decent and playable.

I have over 600 hours in the game and have tried many different nations, but in almost every run, I lose interest around the 1550s and restart. The game becomes seriously tedious and feels meaningless after a certain point.

No matter which country you choose, the core loop remains the same, and it hits a wall of boredom at the exact same stage. Once you reach a certain power level, the game becomes far too easy.

I’ve spent thousands of hours in EU4, and back then, I used to wish the end date was even further away because I was having so much fun and couldn't fit all my goals in. In EU5, it’s the exact opposite. I find myself just wanting it to be over.

In my last playthrough, I forced myself to push through until 1700 just to see the end once, but I got so bored that I don't plan on touching the game again for months.

While the early game is enjoyable, in its current state, my review will be negative. I hope it improves in the future.
