Never played EUIV. Is it playable on small screens? I've found CKII unplayable due to tiny interface elements, even with interface scaling set to 150%, on a 1080p 13.3' screen

13'3 may be kind of small still. EUIV is fine, but the bundle is needed to get into it now. Classic Paradox.

Tho, I'd like to kind of modulate your words here, Liam:

Sometimes. For at least 4 years (from the top of my head, I could dig into my message over the Paradox forums and all to be more accurate), EUIV was broken for any cross-play multi for Linux users (they'd desync less than a minute into the game, as the underlaying clock system was broken for that much time)

Paradox support was "meh" to put it mildly here. They do try to support Linux well, and overall it is good. But here? EUIV was broken, yet HoI4 and Stellaris were patched for that very bug at most a year after it first appeared.

Yeah. Multiplayer sucked. But on the bright side on windows EU4 took 5 minutes to load while we were on the map in 5 seconds (and the game has to restart whenever a save is loaded, so it was not just a once per game issue). So on solo play we on Linux used to have the upperhand for a long time.

Got the Humble EU IV bundle back in January 2020; don't remember if it was "complete" at that time, but there's definitely stuff in the new bundle that wasn't in the old one (but nothing that looks worth shelling out another $20).

Same here. As far as i can see, only the last 2 expansions are new to this bundle, which makes it about the same price you pay when the 2 expansions are on sale anyway.

Just for the curiosity: is it possible to split the bundle, so you can take the parts you don't allready own and gift the rest to someone?

Can't speak about this bundle specifically, but it usually works that way. When it's a single key with multiple items, they usually list it as a single bundle item.

So question. Does this mean the game is less big free than Stellaris or CKII? Follow-up. You guys mentioned multiplayer. How is it for solo play? This is very tempting if I can play it alone while ignoring my friends and family, lol.

Now the game it's ok.

Like many other Pdx games, and definitely more than the most recent ones, the game has a quite steep curve of learning. Especially if you start with all the DLCs as you would with this pack here. There is an outrageous amount of buttons and modifiers now in the game. Youtube is your friend but be prepared to lose badly a lot in your first plays (I did lose a lot at least).

For single player, if you set to unlock achievements, it ranges from relaxing to frustrating depending on what you want to do (and the patch you try to do it I'd say). Given the ridiculous amount of tags and achievements you easily have thousands of hours of play.

A defect in solo, in my opinion, is that the game falls off a lot in the late game. To explain better, the game changes rules over time to reflect the different eras, and while in the early game you can get an endless amount of troubles just by conquering the wrong province at the wrong time, in the second half of the game once you are an experienced player you methodically start to blob out without control and end to conquer the world or close. That ofc is different in multiplayer but with AIs it's that. The game tends to be more "fun" in the early years. But again, since there are so many tags and achievements, it's still plenty of fun. It's absolutely normal not to play a game until 1821.

I dunno small screeens. I have issues with big ones (i.e. couch playing on TV). Reading the numbers is hard at couch distance and while the interface scaling fixes the readability it doesn't behave well at 1080p resolutions since the game windows become to large to fit the screen.
