Deep dive after deep dive patched in better migration mechanics, improved trade, more interesting characters, and other systems that should have shipped at launch.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
EU4 has better diplomacy, CK3 delves more into personalities and stories, and Victoria 3 has a much deeper economic system, but this game has such a beautiful balance of building a combat system that rewards strategic thinking and rapid conquest, while making it challenging to keep your nation cohesive by managing cultural, religious, and class tensions.
