Lot of bitching on the paradox forums about it (shocking).

I've only messed around with it for an hour or so. It looks like it's your typical Paradox vanilla game - flat. And from what I can tell, it's going to be a micromanaging nightmare, as far as promoting/shuffling population around. Unless I'm missing something, you have to manually promote pops between slave/freeman/citizen/etc. Per province. Of which there's a fucking TON even if you're medium sized.

Really, *really* tired of Paradox's business strategy these last few years. Release a mediocre, shallow game, make 10 or so expansions at 20 bucks a head, 80% of which are integral to playing the game. The game doesn't become enjoyable until at least 2 or 3 expansions in. Cha-ching.

That, and I just heard (this will only mean things to EU players), they put cascading alliances back in on this one. Just no. Fuck no.
