Players worry popular country will be too weak if Europa Universalis 5 starts too early

In Paradox’s grand strategy games, seldom is a country as powerful as the Ottoman Empire. Adored by some and hated by many, it’s the strongest tag in Europa Universalis 4, and now players are worried about it due to the teased Europa Universalis 5 starting in the 14th century.

Ever since Paradox Interactive began its Tinto Talks series of developer diaries on an unannounced project, currently only known as Project Caesar, players have speculated on the possible start dates of its campaign. With most now agreeing it is either 1337 or 1356, the question of the Ottoman Empire has arisen, mostly related to their power, or lack thereof. One March 16 Reddit thread pointed out how players are likely to go through some of the country’s worst times, with AI Ottomans never even getting to their historical peak.
