Europa Universalis III Divine Wind - Tutorial 1: Starting Your First Game

[lfcozzie]

Inflation also has the option of gold, why didn't you explain that

[673Subliminal]

If I am honest, the moment I could actually hear your voice, you had my attention.

[SuperKingLetsPlays]

10 people are COD fan boys who couldn't understand this tutorial.

[SartaqKhan]

Listening to you talk is making me thirsty.

[Alloftheanwsers]

3:09 - 3:21 no shit sherlock :3

[SkeletorSKS87]

Thanks for the video, I especially found the options portion extremely informative and helpful!

[Timster480]

dat mic,kinda hurt my ears with the fading in and out,good tutorial though

[luckylluck2]

its really a wonderful game if you play it on a (relativly) new computer. i tried it on several older computers (form 10 to 2 years old) and they didn't work. i bought a new comp. no bad decision.

[snoo333]

appreciate the enhanced options. I cant believe paradox did not take the time to make something like this.

I hope you make a CK2 enhanced tutorial.

[anchovy21]

[TheYoGhurtE]

Hässlichste Stadt Deutschlands. Fakt. 

[anchovy21]

[TheYoGhurtE]

[j6331]

I got this game from steam...

way too complicated for me O.O

[LittleSn00py]

The word is "pacifist".

[Johnrosssssss]

@LittleSn00py its passive actually in that sentence

[Ashkanhoss29]

I just bought Complete. Is it worth it for a beginner to get Heir to the Throne and Divine Wind as well, or should I get those later?

[ExpectC]

I have played this game for a while, but I could not avoid looking at these videos anyways :)

[LittleSn00py]

What mods are available for Divine Wind?

[Daleksaresupreme1]

like...like...like...like....l­ike

[7ThreeHead7]

I just started playing and these videos really help me a lot! thanks :)

[vvindstalker]

Nice vid, thanks!

[MrScratchproof]

Thanks for making those videos. I used to play Vicky II so I'm a bit familiar with the interface but those videos are gold, thanks again.

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@MrScratchproof you're welcome friend:)

[eshedye]

u ate my brain. 

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@eshedye it was delish

[trppmdm]

One thing. When people make tutorials and they document the provinces they AFAIK always forget the mild and normal winter. You can see the winter by going on the geographic mapmode and seeing three types of provinces: a normal one, a bit lighter one because there is a mild winter and the most luminous one which means normal winter.

[TheKodaHack]

Thank god no high comment!

[thebigJ1er]

opposite of "bonus" is "malus"

[QuasiBelgium]

@thebigJ1er In games, it's often called "penalty" or "handicap".

[Dinyang]

@thebigJ1er

Yeah, in vulgate latin.

Is malus even a world in English?

[thebigJ1er]

@Dinyang

It is. It's an adjective in latin, a noun in English. Plural maluses.

It's most literal use is in business, i.e. the return of a bonus paid due to breach of contract or lack of performance.

Like bonus, it's meaning has widened. It's used far less frequently in everyday speech, however.

[thebigJ1er]

I had thought "Historical" didn't work properly, and "event" was set aside for modding, no?

[goblinlord71]

Hello mr video creator man, I have a mediocre comp 2gigs of ram a dual core 2.8 processor and a nvidia 6200 graphics card. Whenever I attemp to play I get thr gf's card has gone Into an infinite loop error. Please reply.

[silversteel09]

do you need a storng computer to start this game. because i have a low video card and i dont want the game to crash while i playing it. plz reply 

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@silversteel09 a mediocre computer will run EU3 fine

[silversteel09]

@EugeneofSavoy18 2 more things how much it cost and does this game requiere the older or the original vistion?

[Qsdd0]

@silversteel09 You can get EU3 Chronicles for about 50 bucks. Chronicles has all released games in it :)

[ilias900]

You remind me of captain obvious sometimes.

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@ilias900 If it was so obvious to you, why would you watch a tutorial designed for people who have never played a Paradox game before? By explaining everything, it leaves the least potential for confusion..

[ilias900]

@EugeneofSavoy18

But still, even a mentally handicapt person would know the 'back key' is the key for going back. You even demonstrated that.. If people don't even know that when they start playing this game, there's really no use in explaining it to them.

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@ilias900 Point taken.. it was my first tutorial ever, give me a break! lol. But you really shouldn't be using mentally handicapped people as an example when you yourself could not even spell it right.

[ilias900]

@EugeneofSavoy18

I'm Belgian, English is not my native language :).

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@ilias900 oh, i'm an ass :P

[ilias900]

@EugeneofSavoy18

No man, it's ok :) most people would just start calling names out of nowhere without really thinking.

[Baleur]

Good video, just what i was looking for as i just bought the game.

However i must say you spend waaaay too much time (10 minutes+) explaining things that people figure out themselves, such as the difficulty bar or are that shows allies.

Anything that is explained by tooltips or simple words (like "Allies:") need not be elaborated on, focus on the gameplay itself that is unique to the game instead, thx :)

[nichdawarrior]

every time I try to start eu3 heir to the throne, i get a message saying i i can't because d3dx9_35.dll wasn't found! what do i do? ( yes, i've tried re-installing)

[LiNaK37]

@nichdawarrior You have to get the direct-x download.

[sporky69]

Great timing Eugene, I just bought this game this week and I'm going to start doing LP's of it also.

Good video :)

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@sporky69 anything for you! you should PM me about things that confuse you and i will do videos about them eventually.

[soundofwaves]

Why did u decide to do a tutorial when u have done lots of vids?

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@soundofwaves lots of people ask.. plus it brings in more potential viewers for the main let's plays.

[Bonemiath]

latin: bonus =|= malus

sorry if this sounds like i'm a technical asshole, but thought it might help :)

Also, do you think you could try out multiplayer sometimes? All I know of that is that there is no pausing and one gamespeed

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@Bonemiath haha no not an asshole at all! thank you. i should know all about malus.. i hate second declension though lol

[BGMafiaDMX]

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@BGMafiaDMX i know about those tutorials.. i dont know if you are complimenting me or insulting me, but you really need to chill out

[BGMafiaDMX]

[Baleur]

@BGMafiaDMX Where? >_>

[Zelkova1224]

[EugeneofSavoy18]

@Zelkova1224 To Change End Date: Go to your Europa Universalis Folder

Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis III/ Common/Defines.txt

its the first thing in the file.

p.s. Only works for Divine Wind i believe.

[Zelkova1224]
