This game is like the definition of insanity. Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting paradox to make a polished game from launch. And yet the community mods and steam workshop, like with most paradox games, carry this from a good strategy game into one of the best. Yes even Equestria at War contributes to this. Will you remain sane? no. You should expect this when playing a paradox game. Will you enjoy it? .... Yes.
