Celebrating 10 years of EUIV

For ten years, the masters of historical grand strategy have been designing and improving the grandest of games. Originally released in August 2013, Europa Universalis IV has opened a window into the past, challenging players to rewrite the history of the early modern world, taking them from Renaissance to Revolution as any nation or culture in the world. This video timeline celebrates EUIV and you - It's lively community. Thank you for playing all along the way!

Started in 2016 , 3500h played. Haven’t played for a few year but always a special place in my heart.

[@ParadoxGrandStrategy]

And for playing you will always hold a special place in our hearts! 🥰

[@Zivilin]

February, 2014, little over 10k hours for me.

[@legendaryziggs]

@@Zivilin Ah Eu4, the one game you can call someone a noob for having less than 1000 hours ahahaha

[@Bjoern_1897]

um you should play. game is better atm then it has ever been

[@Zivilin]

@@legendaryziggsThat's more of a meme honestly. I know people that did wc after 100 something hours. Hours doesn't really matter much, just your grasp on the game mechanics.

A life-changing game for me. Made more appreciate history even more, and I always have a lot of fun playing it to create the wildest alternate history

[@jimao233]

10th anniversary! big day! it's the perfect time for you to announce eu5😏

[@IronWolf123]

The Anniversary isn't until mid August.

[@sokol0311]

Please, no! I don't want to wait 5 years for the game to become playable after tonns of dlc's

[@SpartanFishy]

No thanks, keep making eu4 better!

[@Lawrance_of_Albania]

Seeing imperator rome and Victoria 3, i woudn't be excited for eu5. I would advise paradox next game they start developing, they actually finish and then add DLC's

[@stupnevroman]

4,5k hours since 2k14. Don't regret a minute.

It seems to me like yesterday I watched 5 year anniversary video and dev stream, and I thought, wow so cool to be a part of it. Now it is already 10 years anniversary?? Damn I am old.

[@mohamedjear8917]

One of my favourite strategy games of all times ❤ I hope EU5 gets released with a better engine and quality of life improvements, don't change the overall formula just improve on eu4, dont fix what aint broken 😅 From Morocco with love ❤

[@legendgamers7065]

Truly one of the most fascinating game i played The game helped me learn alot about history Also led me to play crusader kings I started this game back in 2019 Didnt understood anything for several months but once i learned it It became one of my favoruite

[@GovernorVanskoff]

Thank you for THE GREATEST strategy game EVER! Started in 2015 and still love it

[@SRWR1]

Played since 2016, incredible game! I've been lucky enough that I've had multiple friends to play it with over the years, even have an ongoing campaign later this evening!

[@SaideBilla]

wow time flies I started playing the game in late 2013 now 10 years....wow

[@dimo9463]

I have been playing this game on and off since its release and seeing how much it's improved has been a great experience. You can really tell how much love and care has been put into and I will be almost sad to stop playing it when EU5 comes out. So thank you paradox for this great game!

[@BXMKE]

Did they announce an Eu5 or do people just assume they're making it?

[@dimo9463]

@@BXMKE Well they confirmed that they are going to only be releasing a couple of more DLCs and then EU4 is finished. So of course they will announce EU5 soon, it's not like they will just stop supporting one of their main games.

[@BXMKE]

@@dimo9463 oh ok I see

[@hydrargyrum1019]

Congrats! Stay the best!

[@aaronmatthews1088]

I love this series, have been playing since the first game back in 2000. However, 10 years is an incredibly long time to keep updating an existing game rather than bring out a new updated sequel. EU IV is really showing it's age now.

[@UtopiaMusic]

Happy birthday! EU4 helped me truly find my passion for music ❤

[@milan99cz]

It's been great 10 years!

[@bosserman444]

Crazy, I was in middle school when it came out. Life speeds by you.

[@thechairmangames]

10 years of this game and its still the best strategy game on the market. Started playing a month after release and been hooked ever since.

[@ShizzT28]

I miss the Dev Clashes. Those were epic! Indian Thunderdome, Kuba Luba custom nation, bank of Grugi,... those were the days!

[@alfatejpblind6498]

Best game ever made. Tack för allt, paradox.

[@zeandarilho7839]

my absolute favorite game

[@ZeMalta]

Ive got into this game some years ago, and I've seen how much love the community has for it. I myself really like it, but I love the time the game takes place way more. The renaissance and barroque, and rococo are so dynamic and changing, and so much symbolism europe uses till this day was sprung from it. Lot of fascinating stories too. Just a shame the game isn't more visual and artistic, with at least a tiny bit of characters like Vic3, cuz otherwise it's an awesome game.

[@hermexgames]

Thank You for this.. For our Mexican Community of Players..

[@joesmoe6454]

No matter what anyone says about the Swedes, damn can they make a map game.

[@ok5988]

Eu5 is probably gonna be wild

[@gong2541]

Still remember when I pre-ordered this, and before launch, there was a demo to play as Portugal or something. Time flies

[@88georgefloyd14]

Victoria 4 confirmed.

[@cusy1054]

One of the classic map games

[@markorahoske6931]

Love the mod community for this game, over 3000 hours logged, and still feels like the first time playing it with every fresh start. Also hi Red Hawk, if you're in here lol

[@danieswas]

10 years?! We should get a trailer for EU5 after cities skylines 2 releases

Tnx for greatest game in my life

Please make interfaces completely moldable and remove hardcoded stuff

[@Syllogyzym]

What a wild ten years. I really hope that they’ll fix turbocolonization and global tech parity sometime before the eleventh anniversary.

[@kyleholmgren5939]

They put map painting in the intro xD that's great

[@thenamesianna]

Started playing in 2021, I really love this game ! But MAN Is It hard !

[@alexyanhaosu]

10 years of map painting indeed

[@SupremeNoob3231]

Eu5 is rlly needed

[@Luzitanium]

they would sold more if it wasnt so expensive, the full game with all DLCs it costs over 150£

[@requiem6465]

Ive been playing this game since 2016. I'm still not good at it.

EU IV will be free in Epic Games Store.

Wow im now felling old Really old Like a frickin great great gandfather old

[@clarencekeller7684]

There are two types of EU4 players; ones that like to paint the map and ones that wanna play more a tall, less expansive approach. I'm the latter. Be awesome to have two separate mission trees for each nation that players can choose to cater to their playing style. But the mission trees that's been released since Leviathan have been fun and awesome nonetheless.

[@lanelesic]

Johan and DDR Jake ruined EU4 by pondering to reddit blobbers, multiplayer community (of 13 people), clueless casuals not banned on paradox plaza forums and the twitch streamer clowns.

Depends on your taste honestly, for normie femboys it is City Skylines. For scifi weebs it is Stellaris. For medieval geeks its CK2/3. For wehraboos, racists, and WW2 enthusiats its HOI4. For base-dwelling obese and masochists it is EU4. For Romaboos it is Imperator Rome. So pick your poison 😅😅
