I generally don't like multiplayer games. Since most MP games gravitate heavily towards competitive play, you can't really change up your play for the fun of it without being kicked in the teeth by people min-maxing or heavily metagaming. I know some people think that's fun, but it just can't keep my personal interest. Only ever played Paradox games in MP more or less cooperatively with my brother.

I don't like EU4 in Multiplayer either. It is too much stress. I enjoy, being able to stop and think a while, before making a move. EU4 is not a game I want to play in a haste

That is just a typical talk of a World Conquest marathon which is totally normal. Your brain goes on standby and you may reflect on world and internal affairs of your life. Yoga is not even comparable to it :)

This is actually one reason my friends and I play grand campaigns spanning Imperator to Stellaris. CK3 and Victoria seem to upend everyones personal plan. We have players that are really good at one game and haven't really played the others outside our campaigns. It works out to be a nice balance, just as you think one person is going to take the overwhelming lead, game change.

Bulgaria has a Mission Tree Quarbit
They have an even bigger Mission Tree in the EU4 mod Missions Expanded

I am very familiar with this feeling. I call it “the meta effect”. I seem to be drawn to games with lots of moving pieces (EU4, yugioh, competitive pokemon), but whenever I pick one up I try to avoid the meta as much as I can.

Yeah multiplayer is so sweaty. Sweating in a map game is something I will never understand.

I don't like EU4 multiplayer cause it's either too slow for my taste or too fast.
Can't pause 10 times in a single month when there's other people playing at the same time, and I know that I wouldn't have fun if someone was pausing when I want time to go by faster.

Like, in singleplayer I'll end up in a truce with basically all the neighbors I can attack most of the time. And what then... I would just have to endure the billion pauses by other players while I wait around doing nothing, it's tedious even when I'm playing alone, I can only imagine how awful it would be in multiplayer.

I missed when you could easily find an open lobby with a bunch of other casual players and join a recently made discord and not have to metamance.

mp, for all its flaws, has one thing going for it: there's actually politics

all the meta stuff, as unfortunate as it is, serves those ends

that's just my feelings tho, I love sp just as much for different reasons

videogames are meant to be played in single player.
mp always makes problems.
