I'm playing PEASANT REPUBLIC FLORENCE trying to spread PEASANT IMPERIALISM (I own all of Tuscany from the Papal States up to Lucca) and I've been prestigemaxxing the ENTIRE GAME just so that I can ask the HRE to make me a Duchy

well guess what? there's been no Holy Roman Emperor for like 20 fucking years now! like literally since the start of the dang game! ahhhh!

same, I haven't tried any of the newer games; breeder kings 3, communitoria 3 or blobropa colonialis 5.

i love slow and intricate single player sim/strategy games but every time i've tried to play one "game" of paradox I haven't been able to "finish" (make it to the end of the timeline) before they release some expansion that makes old saves unplayable.

i've tried to play eu4 many many times and tried to get little sugar islands in the caribbean or tried to make an asian country survive against the western devils and just can't make it to the 1700s
