The author of TheSixthAxis said that:
Europa Universalis 5 marks the beginning of a new golden age for Paradox's series of global strategies, reimagining its core, but retaining breadth, detail and regionality. There are minor rough edges, which is not surprising for a game of this scale, and there is room for expansion to better reveal certain ideas and regions, but isn't that always the case?
