Europa Unversalis: What's the big deal?
Downloaded the game (I know my bad blah blah, I'm the type of guy who will download it and buy it if its an A+ game, no one's gonna rip me off).
Anyway downloaded the game and played a wee bit of it, but I found it reeaally hard.. It seems to be in real-time and I am finding it hard to catch up with everything. But the really annoying thing is that millions of windows popup all the time, saying this and that happened, by the time I've read and gone thru them all, the events or whatever have already passed and long gone, so it's all useless to me. Before I know it, I'm beaten!
OK now I KNOW that it's probably because I don't know how to play the game, I remember when I first played Civ..I remember when I found out that you can mine hills with settlers. When I found out that, I mined every damn hill on my massive huge land, there were countless hills mined, far as the eye can see, and all I had were about 2 cities. So it's funny when I remember things like that, doing silly things like that, trial and error and watching whats going on to see whats actualy happening. But I am not finding EU to be addictive because its TOO annoying, its TOO fast, so I can't play the game the same way I did with Civ in order to learn whats going on.
How do I play this damn game? Is it worth it? Or is it just for diplomatic freaks?
Don't get me wrong, I like diplomacy, I want the realistic stuff, but this is just too annoying to play!
