but also if you play Byzantium you're going to make no money and every playthrough on the same day on the same year you'll get fucked by an earthquake and various other events that constantly fire and lose you money

cool story guys, what the fuck is wrong with them?

Would you have more fun if there were no obstacles?

"there's no difference between no obstacles and a brick wall of obstacles grinding your nuts off"

when the game gives you a bunch of random good events (in one out of literally 15 playthroughs) and it's still not enough to avoid a pretender rebellion firing right before you can war dec the ottomans without going to -50 stability and fucking yourself further and then afterwards you're left with <90% of your strength while the Ottomans get their shit rocked in a war with genoa and recover from on par with you to 20x stronger than you within two years with genoa as a vassal I'm just gonna say fuck the eu5 devs and fuck you too if you wanna be a reddit argument lord about how I should actually be having so much fun with that
