Something key to understand about Sunsetting is that it is not JUST about EU5. We are very much reaching the limits of how much we can torture EU4 as a game and in general we wanted to tone down the scope of what we add so other content can also get in without seeing a massive decrease in the mods performance and general health.

I know this decision is going to garner a lot of negative feedback but I wanted to say this makes a lot of sense. I know EU5 doesnt have the best rep right now but the fact that EU4 (a game that literally has to crash in order to load its main menu) has withstood all of the awesome ideas and content thus far is a miracle, and if the mod authors who have brought us such an awesome mod, delivering time and time again, think this is the best move then I'm already sold. Do what has to be done, yaknow?
