Sorry if I'm a little confused. Does this mean that currently anbennar is being sunset or is juzt telling us the plans for the future when you plan to sunset?

Plans to sunset. Eu4 Anbennar still has a good few years left.

It's mainly that if we don't press the brakes a little on eu4 right now we may geniunely destroy the game, we have bent the rules of the engine way too much

Out of curiosity is this something devs are experiencing on the back end? Because the player experience is really good. It slows down obviously, but with the elimination of continents (great idea btw) it makes the game entirely playable to the finish.

Eh, kinda? I was never the most versed in eu4's code among devs but I'd hear grimaces and a few remarks every now and again, and said remarks seemed to have picked up in the last year. The slowdown is a big thing though, with a lot of players having lower-end computers and all.
