1.40 was promising now were going backwards again.

Sigh....

In what way? I haven't played since the 1.3 Beta. What did 1.40 do well, and what got worse again now?

Play 1.3 then.

Where did that come from? I was asking a simple question. Your opinion is not very helpful when you don't explain it.

[truehunter]

What are you referring to? Did something change within the 1.4 beta? When I tried the 1.4 beta it was awful. Personal influence stapled onto the rest of the systems is a pure loss of player agency and an attempt to force players to slow down even more. The change from hourly ticks to daily is a good idea (should have launched that way...) but needs to be accounted for by the other systems (combat, in particular).

What did you dislike about 1.3? I've been playing 1.3 since it first went up as a beta and I think the game is fun. There are still many issues and areas for improvement but the game worked and the systems seemed to be doing what they were intended to do.

I can only talk for myself but I am very surprised about the total lack of loyalty among the France subjects in today's update. The game became totally unplayable suddenly with most subject loyalties even being 0. This sounds like a bug to me

Pretty sure the change had nothing to do with France but it affects every country. France just happens to start with tons of subjects:

Decentralization no longer keeps large numbers of subjects loyal. The disloyalty from subjects outweighing their overlord now counts all subjects together instead of each subject type separately.

Each update makes some things worse. This game is so frustrating and I just want to have fun

Might be because of the change in decentralization in 1.4.1.? I haven't tried France in this patch but the changelog says that vassals are no longer calculating their power individually so France with lots of subjects at the start might get a strong nerf (which I don't support, they often struggled in 1.4 already)

Edit: Sorry, user tonypa already mentioned this. But it's definitely this. Is there another country with tons of vassals? Bohemia comes to mind but its vassals are tiny.

That is normal. Your subjects should help with rebels.

Trade is bugged and they are aware of it. There should be a fix in 1.4.3.
