It's a heckin' wholesome mingerino, amirite? Now, let's crack open a hoppy Soylent or three and start gaming!
The missions help you with the floods and the inflation is in return for 4 gold mines. You make crazy money and can have all advisors on rank 5 very early on. With inward perfection you can get the developement back at very low cost. It is not unbalanced. Without those events you would just steamroll everything. Now you got to keep an eye on rebels, stability, decide on when to use wich estate, plan when to go to war and when to increase Mandate, etc.
As for that single whip law, you know even with 4 province producing gold, that is a +0.4 inflation from the modifiers alone. When building a colonial empire with Ming, thanks to oversea gold mines, I have suffered from heavy inflation about 2.0 per month from the modifier alone. That means about -60 admin power per month. It breaks the game. level five admin advisor generates extra points per month, plus power projection, estates, reform, my admin power generation can never reach 60 per month. Enjoyable? Interesting to play?
Even the mandate of China is super lame. It's constantly stealing your merit and mandate points, so you spend half the campaign micro managing those two things for such incredibly tiny pay offs until eventually it gives you the hyper blob button (the one that lets you vassalize your tributaries. I forget the name). By the time I get that far I could have simply annexed the entirety of Asia by myself the old fashion way, thus making the entire "eastern HRE" concept irrelevant.
There's honestly just no point in being Ming because the one and only thing that they have going for them (blobbing) is done infinitely better by Qing.
ok, i understand now why you are unhappy with the changes. those events didn´t fire nearly as often for me as they did for you. i can see how it stops you right in the tracks if too many fire early on. sorry to hear that mate.
While, I really like playing as great Ming, but I not a very lucky man when it comes to the event of Paradox games, especially when playing a country like Ming, it has way too many nasty events, and the new update makes the situation even worse for me, especially with those damned floods.
Also, don't start harmonizing a religion until you are at like 99 harmony. Keeping harmony high is important. Never use missionaries.
I had almost the whole new world and snaked my way to british islands and conquered them for achievement before age of absolutism, and this was a chill run. I could have conquered so much more. Passed 8 reforms then had to stop because I didn't want dynasty disaster to trigger (it got to 97%).
You have infinite money and infinite monarch power as Ming.
that was the same experience i had. but it seems to all come down to RNG sadly. Maybe if there was some flag that prevents floods and earthquakes for a while after one had been triggered would help those with bad luck.
The Eunich estate is broken btw. They have some missions you can not fullfill. I saw a "HAS_NOT_EMBRACED_INSTITUTION" requirement. Like, how am i able to fullfill that? I embraced all institutions that were available at that point. There were similar things. Anyway, i avoided Enich missions unless they were about developing.
