What do people hope for EU5?

[MIJORE]

Since Eu4 is seeing some of its last updates this means a potential for an eu5. In this eu5 what do some of you hope is in eu5?

Don't buy unfinished games, they won't sell and they'll have to change their commercial policy. That's why I'm a late buyer, and it pays off, most games are clean when I get them and I won't have the bad surprise to see I have to spend few more bucks to have what developers really wanted to deliver us.

you know that the hype makes the game sales not actually the game quality
just check out total war warhammer3 the hype made it sell better then ever, despite it being a half unfinished beta
usually the studios are claiming selling you an actual finished game so... else you trust them else you don't
in most of the cases the hype carries your willingness to buy raghter then the trust into a studio
how many ppl baught emperor despite knowing paradox will screw their new dlc release...
we know, by now, it made eu4 worst (or one of the worst ) rated game on steam by that time
same happened to tww3 a 2d biggest ever title on steam in terms of sales (and there are other plateforms) got rekt by the community review bombing
after 6 months of patches the game is hardly reaching a poor 50 user score on metacritic
for a title like total war warhemmer it's tragic, going dawn from 166k to 22k users peak in less 30 days

it is very probably that the more the community pushes paradox into developping their supposed eu5 the scenario of the release will end being similar

Yes Medicles, that's why I used "would". At the moment, this commercial policy works fine, like the EA one (where you can see that if developers listen too much to players, they have to change too much things and delay their release without the game being breathtaking as it is often a first). So they don't need to change their way to manage things, and I mine. Their return on investments is probably very good.

Yes cråck, at the moment the video games market (on some others) is full of compulsive consumers (or even addicts). And it's not a niche anymore. The world is full of gamers and developers. They're hundreds of game released every month for different ludic medias including phones.

As said here, players won't be that much listened by big studios on Steam, not much more on their forum. They usually have a strong business plan to respect their investors deadlines and pay a huge amount of wages and structural costs. Then, they try to make enough sales quickly to offer discounts to increase volumes afterwise, and a good marketing to increase the hype is quite recommanded.
I'm pushing an opened door here anyway, but that's why I'm a late buyer. I don't need to play a game specifically, there's plenty of choice. And with humble bundle I can get some AAA for less than the best discount. I'm okay to pay, just not for the current pricing. I manage my personal costs, it improves my financial comfort.

I want them to remove "Declare war" Button and Institute a system of great crises and heavy diplomacy
I also hope they remove the tedious micromanaging of units, i dont want that in my Grand Strategy Experience.
I hope some sort of system of regions that troops automatically advance through.
Also I hope that they will show what kind of diverse and interesting people live in my cool empire.

Agree 100% with this

I would like smooth, fluid performance (from the first year to the last), modern graphics, zero bloatware, zero micromanaging of troops.

[Lightsong]

Whatever happens, stripping back all the content and redoing it as expansions/dlc like ck3 is what I hope DOESN'T happen.

They will milk EU4 till the last tiny and to us unknown country gets a DLC.

For the record, the person who posted that (probably) wasn't actually advocating for any of those changes, they were viciously mocking Paradox for doing all of those things to the upcoming Victoria 3.

preferably a good game, not needed but would be a appreciated
