This took me 18 MONTHS to make.... but it was worth it. Thank you all for taking part in what I consider to be EU4 HISTORY! MY MAGNUM OPUS IS FINISHED! i can finally rest
This is by far one of the most impressive things I've seen done in a Paradox game! Congrats on getting it finished and to all of the other players that worked together to make this video. Your videos have gave me lots of enjoyment throughout the last months and years :)
This is so Ironic, because the Roman Republic was found on ideals shown in this video, aggresive and expansionist consuls who only had a short amount of time to achieve glory and prestige, so would often try to do as much as possible with little regard for what comes after their time in office is finished.
Something about recruiting MP players to do in 80 years what dozens of SP players couldn't in 250 years is both incredibly awesome and incredibly funny to me.
Would be also really cool to see each player representing different in-game ruler. So for example there is some great ruler who lives for pretty long, does some great stuff and then when he dies player changes. Someone lives longer, someone is less lucky This way players could, for example, make themselves a general(if ruler got good stats as general) and risk their life to win in important war. Also if its regency then its next players aswell. Regency over? Next please. I personally think this got some potential.
Ok I know the comments are mostly memes here but this is genuinely awesome, amazing idea, great execution and improvisation to save it there at the end, editors with the patience of absolute saints who deserve ALL the recognition for going through so many players, all in all thanks to all of you who contributed in making this!!
This is such a cool concept, its like actual leaders change of powers and goals their very own interests and designs, bad leader's vs good leaders, such a great social experiment
I think me and Spanish deserve some credit for setting it up for them. I was the sweat before the sweat. Ultra depressing to know the next five people were garbage lol
I have to say maybe the views and other stuff like that won't be worth the effort and time put in to this video but this has to be one of the most fun and genuinly interesting eu4 video I've ever seen!
I wasnt part of this project (even though I could have) but its nice to see this finally coming into fruition. This recording probably put a strain on Spud, but atleast he managed to not become mentally insane because of some questionable decisions. We also see the evolution of Laith here, with his hair looking like the Great Barrier Reef to present normal haircut. How nice of you to show us your past mistakes. Atleast the goal was reached to form the ultimate pizza empire, Rome. Well done everyone. 😄

I love this concept. I really hope for you that you're proud of what you did and that it will be worth for you, given the effort ( since we can see that it wasn't that easy to do ). I want to give more credits to the good players that did fix the coalition thing ( sorry, forgot their names, don't hurt me ) before the 5 or 6 bad players in a row... Then, the total carry in the last 80 years, that was something else. I would've love to have a list of everyone participating with the rating they had.
Hahaha I loved the video man. Thanks for the dedication to completing such a long project, thanks to you and everyone behind the scenes for the better half of 2 years of work! A phenomenal result!
This is a good idea. Would be cool to incorporate a story of each player like it's a long running empire and say each player was a duke/king/emperor and give the particularly good or bad ones nicknames like John 'the Terrible' or Michael 'the Good' depending on how well they did. Reminds me of the Consulships of Rome, where the Consuls would make sub-optimal treaties because they prefer to get the victory during their term rather than give the next Consul a big W.
Finally had the time to watch all of it. The last few decades is amazing. The power of the most sweatiest gamers fixing mistakes and overcoming a crooked Italy in short amount of time. Chef kiss.
There wasn’t much of anything for most of the time, it was about a week of signups in early 2023 but after that it was just me and someone else going through 5 years for the following weeks/months. No surprised you missed it.

This is like irl democracy you should do this but the player rules for as long as the character lives so it sorta simulates monarchy (it might only take 9 months instead)
You know, the mentality of I only have x amount of years in power to accrue as much glory and prestige as possible, is one of the main reasons the Roman Republic conquered so much territory in real life, so it's pretty fitting that you did this with the long term goal being the reformation of the Roman Empire.
This is cool concept it is like you actually have different governments in power and you have to fix/keep what previous people have done. Laith is a man of many haircuts... I mean talents.
I would love to see a video series where each player plays for as long as their ruler is in power. In the case of elections, the duration would naturally be shorter, but in kingdoms, it would be very interesting
I feel like there should have been an entrance exam before starting this project, for example, how do you attach a general to an army? How do you check for aggressive expansion? Have you played more than 20 hours of EU4. (Some of these players appear to have failed on all 3 questions).
This took me 18 MONTHS to make.... but it was worth it. Thank you all for taking part in what I consider to be EU4 HISTORY! MY MAGNUM OPUS IS FINISHED!

69 likes. Be a shame if I gave it the 70th…
tiwi grandcampaign when (including stellaris full conquest)
i dont know how to tell you this but theodoro was the true magnum opus
Damn we can actually see all the stages of grief, represented by the haircut that Laith went through over that time
I am unrecognisable now
I believe you mean lack thereof
😂😂
I genuinely don’t know why Laith turning his head only to reveal a headset dent the size of the EU4 map made me laugh so much 😂
It took a long time to get to where we’re at now
@@TheSocialStreamers its ok, im sure most gamers have been there
@@TheSocialStreamersyo bro where is the save?? I want to play this shi
@@TheSocialStreamersat the end you said the save would be available to everybody but it’s not in the description

Sir thats not ironic. Thats poetic.
Don’t forget the part where they declare wars against nations across the sea when they have no navy, so they build one while at war😂
awesome thing to point out, and the navy thing lmfao
opposite of ironic
@@vtandromeda6790 Considering the whole Punic Wars ordeal thats pretty Roman to me
I forgot i took part in this. Now i am watching Laith yelling, saying he knows where i live.
I do.
For some reason i had a feeling that was you mango
Laiths hair has had its own succession crisis
lol
i laughed

To be fair, that's what happens when you recruit from the sweat pool rather than the fan pool. Not dissing the fans, it's just natural really.
also like, the nation was in a good spot to do for it , just needed the players that could reach for it@@AGrumpyPanda
also those 80 years are with absolutism and imperialism so that makes it much quicker
@@tarunyadav3567Also reduced war score cost
To be fair 100 absolutism and another 30 percent admin efficiency is a hell of a drug
Them Multiplayer sweats are like special forces of eu4
"We weren't expecting special forces!"
Special as in autism
Blurring the total income at 17:57 but not blurring the total expenses and the surplus is a true high IQ play
Spud and Aeris. The 2 damned souls who made this video possible. Thank you.

It took 18 months to make! It's the "Boyhood" of Paradox map painting videos.
IT IS FINALLY TIME
You should do one of these in which each player plays as a ruler of the nation and it changes when the guy dies
Now convert the save to Vicky 3 and continue the succession

Whole thing was 98% me recording the first 300 years, 1% Aeris and the S-Team forming rome, and 1% Laith editing it (not biased I promise)
Laith actually edited it. Props to him for going through spuddzy and my footage, no wonder it took forever.
@@spudzzy0373 I fully believe it but I still wanna thank all 3 of you and even those who (actually) participated for what y'all created :D
IT'S FINALLY HERE
What? You didn't like my Tunisian Bordergore?
What a magnificent hair of Laith in the intro
This is such a cool concept, its like actual leaders change of powers and goals their very own interests and designs, bad leader's vs good leaders, such a great social experiment
0:55 Oh sweet lord what are the headphones doing to that hairline, I'm glad you sorted that out
Impressive, very nice.
Let's see Laith's gamer dent. 0:58
damn, this video finally finds the light of day. unfortunately most of the video I was trying to remember which years I played.
What a carry the last 70 years
I think me and Spanish deserve some credit for setting it up for them. I was the sweat before the sweat. Ultra depressing to know the next five people were garbage lol
Double that manpower like the true devclicket you are

@@spudzzy0373 Good to know ☺️
19:00 You're kidding, right? It's for the reconquest cb, lower AE and not having to core yourself.
I can only assume laith is kidding as that is exactly why. Sicily and Gascony have a bunch of high dev cores that reconquest gets for very cheap ae.
Goodness, you can see Laith commenting on Laith commenting on Laith at the dtart of the video, this really is the Laithverse
Lives are Temporary, Rome is Eternal, Laith's lighting is Triggering, Laiths hair is Bewildering. All as the fabric of the universe dictated.
amazing dedication Laith!!! I applaud everyone who took part in this

As a proud Roman citizen of Oi Josuke!, We would like to wish Spud a happy belated birthday!
This is so cool
Actually insane that you managed this
Happy birthday spud
🥳
thanks tort
Hahaha I loved the video man. Thanks for the dedication to completing such a long project, thanks to you and everyone behind the scenes for the better half of 2 years of work! A phenomenal result!
21:00 fake news, i always believed in this game
this is so neat, i think it’s really great you do such creative things with these map games
Happy birthday Spud!
This was genuinely fantastic!
And it's amazing to see a creator have actual creativity and not just do the same thing over and over again
Wow this is a great vid, very well made, you can tell a lot of effort went into making this
This was really entertaining to watch. Glad you took the effort to make this video!
Happy birthday Spud
0:58 when he looks sideways 💀
Coolest video in a while. Videos w/ lots of players are always so much more fun to watch. Hope you do more!
This is a good idea. Would be cool to incorporate a story of each player like it's a long running empire and say each player was a duke/king/emperor and give the particularly good or bad ones nicknames like John 'the Terrible' or Michael 'the Good' depending on how well they did.

This is one hell of a video. Insanely impressive. I enjoyed every second.
the absolute chadlords in the last 100 something years. Cheers!
happy birthday sqid.
Would have loved to play in such a huge succession game.
Fun stuff.
"Life is temporary and Rome is eternal😀👆🫵" a couple hundred Roman generals would agree laith
He has done it!
And exhausted himself in the process
What a video
Guys like you and everyone in this video are the reason eu4 is such an old game but still so active
We not going to mention the huge chunk of South America they got somehow 😂
Would be interesting to see this style of video where the player changes at the death of every monarch rather than every 5 years
very well edited! glad this wasn't 3 videos over a year and a half!
That was brilliantly done 👏
great concept, and hilarious commenting. Thanks!
Idk you but from the sheer effort you put in ik youre cool :)
"this video took 18 months to make" I thought he was talking about his hair
I have no idea how I missed all of this over all 18 months
I know i'm not really active on the Discord but damn

Okay, now take it to Vicky 3
no way i commented maybe three years ago asking you to play milan and you finally did
ty my man for the effort
1:02 ah, the classic hamer wave, my hair gets like that too
back to back bangers keep it up 👍
That endgame expansion was extremely impressive.
HOLY SHIT IT'S FINALLY HERE, LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO
Declaring a war on a island witout having a navy gotta be a punic war reference 😂
Gotta love ambitious projects like this
Waiting for Imperator edition
This is like irl democracy you should do this but the player rules for as long as the character lives so it sorta simulates monarchy (it might only take 9 months instead)
This was a really great video. I love how large Florida is by the end of the game LOL The Empire of Florida
After watching this, I feel much better about my eu4 skills. 😂
Very excited for this series
Tbh this video is a great representation of democracy. It can be bad, it can be good, but at least it's very agile
that by far was an amazing video. i know it took forever and a day but hot dog that was a fun watch
I completely forgot this was even going to be a thing
As someone born in Milan and from Lombardy this is blessed.
ngl i unironically though the video was about needing 18 months to go to 1821 in normal games
Truly a masterpiece. Well done.
headphone dent goes crazy

This is genuinely the coolest thing.
I'd love to see this done where each player surrenders their turn when the ruler changes.
This is cool concept it is like you actually have different governments in power and you have to fix/keep what previous people have done. Laith is a man of many haircuts... I mean talents.
I did it I got the conquest back on track I completely forgot that I had played in this until I saw my name so yeah good man Laith about time
I would love to see a video series where each player plays for as long as their ruler is in power. In the case of elections, the duration would naturally be shorter, but in kingdoms, it would be very interesting
maybe "an 18 month long campain of eu4" or something like that would be more attractive as a title
I'm surprised there were no mamluks shenanigans. No vassal, no break away to rebels.
Succeeding to form Rome Part 1
Some players going crazy In the five year segments is like the roman republic leaders Doing as much war as they can for the most glory with their term
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE GUY WHO LAITH SAID TO SAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOO THANKS BRO

Truly a social streamer
This is like real Roman expansion. Every guy try expand and fix what the previous government did.
Damn they really did a great Britain in the 18th century
I loved rhe vid, I usually just skip your vids but this one caught my eye and it was worth warching. Hope you make more like this in the future.
