Kyiv becoming a great power instead of Muscovy is more likely given the historical context. IRL Muscovy managed to do it by their ultimate cumsuckery to the Mongols while other Slavic states were weakened by Mongol raids. The same goes for the Ottomans, they were not likely to conquer all that land as a small irrelevant state. That's why 1444 start date made more sense historical accuracy wise. Even without meaningful bonuses, they would still be able to expand due to their advantageous starting position. What is seen in the timelapse makes sense for an earlier start date, and the only way to make it “historical” would be to give a ridiculous amount of bonuses to the countries that are supposed to be successful or they could make the AI smarter for those successful nations.
I personally don’t care about historical accuracy. I play the game to create something different from history. So, if anything, it’s good that historically successful countries fail in these maps. The only disappointment is that no one grows enough, leading to a stalemate pretty much everywhere.
Historical accuracy fags should watch timelapse videos on youtube and masturbate to them instead of playing games.
