Positive:
+ Great Graphics
+ Epic story
+ Good immersion
+ General good playability
+ Very good price for given conten/playtime

Negative:
- Replayability: Although in-game choices can result in different outcomes, its unlikely to play this game again once the storyline is finished. All upcoming DLC's seem pointless to those that already finished the game.
- Few gamebreaking bugs that will waste ~30min of your time.
- Poor economics: Before reaching midgame, you will have likely already attained the best gear there is and have plenty of groschen to spend on nothing. Traders also have barely any money to sell loot too, which is frustrating.

This review is purely based upon the campaign.

I expected a better version of the older COD WW2 style games. Sadly this is not the case. It feels like they wanted to let you experience WW2 through the eyes of a soldier, but they failed in doing so. Biggest issues are the overdramatized stereotype characters, lack of an original realistic and immersive story that makes you want to identify with the main character you play and in general a lot of historical inaccuracies, partly the result of having a very small cast playing the characters. As if a colonel at the front briefs one single sergeant on what to do...

All in all, gameplay itself was fun, just a very poor story that simply wants you to skip the very very long cutscenes as quick as possible or in general wants you to alt tab and do something else for 10min while waiting for the cutscene to end.

+ Beautiful graphics.
+ Good tutorial to easily learn the game.
+ No game is the same due to so many random events.
+ Good game mechanics.

- Not much diversity in war goals --> no possibility to ask certain things during a peace offer. Perhaps they could implement the system of EU IV
- Needing 100% warscore to force demands. Aagain, should bring in some diversity in warscore as in EU IV.
- No achievements that focus on keeping a small but prosperous kingdom. A pitty, continuous expanding is not always the most fun thing.

It takes some effort to understand to play the game and you do keep learning new stuff, even after playing hundreds of hours, but its worth the investment! Great game for singleplayer, as well as multiplayer!

Epic Game, sadly not known by that many people.
Singleplayer module is awesome. You can easily spend hundreds of hours on the SP, since every game you play will be different. You can choose whatever kind of class you want to become and conquer Calradia.
Specialy thanks to a lot of modules, its even more fun to play the SP.

Also the Multiplayer mode is awesome. Native (vanila) is specialy very good for newbies. For more challenge, there have been made plenty of modules like Persistent World and Mercenaries.
