  6. After nearly 1000 days on Steam Workshop, my #Victoria3 mod, 'New Dark Age', has finally reached enough votes to get a rating. It's managed to get 4 stars, so the handful of players playing must like it a bit.

    I don't think we'd get much boost from the rating in terms of players - it's always going to be a niche audience playing.

    I think I would have preferred actual feedback on the Mod rather than votes; I'd rather have some info from the players on how it plays so that I can improve it.

  9. I continue to exist, and have managed to do the one thing I absolutely have to do on a Monday -- hair washed. Extra important this week, as I need to pass as human tomorrow, ha ha.

    For now, just curled up with games. I was trying my hand at Europa Universalis IV, immediately got confused, and brought up Victoria 3 instead. Which I'm still not great at, but at least I kind of know what I'm doing. Kind of. I should probably try a wider range of countries, rather than repeatedly defaulting to the US and UK. *laughs*

  10. @rostundrad @sixtus Er gehört aber sicher zu den Spielern, die sich #Victoria3 wegen der Wirtschaftssimulation holen und die sich dann über die schlechte implementation von Krieg beschweren. Spiel ihm #heartsofiron4 auf und sag ihm, es ist eine realpolitische Wirtschaftssim.

  13. April 3, 2024 - Day 459 - NewPlay Review
    Total NewPlays: 488

    Game: Victoria 3

    Platform: Steam
    Released: Oct 26, 2022
    Installed: Apr 3, 2024
    Unplayed: 0d
    Playtime: 21m

    Victoria 3 is a grand strategy game from Paradox Interactive. It's the first game in the April Humble Choice bundle, and if you're a Paradox fan who doesn't already own it, would probably make the whole bundle worth the purchase.

    Strategy games are not my go-to choice for gaming. It took me a long time to connect the dots between my general lack of enjoyment, and my ADHD.

    The number of things a strategy game requires me to keep on top of simultaneously, is inversely proportional to how much I enjoy the game.

    Then there are games with a steep learning curve. If a game requires me a drop a dexy to stay focused long enough to learn the game systems, that generally doesn't go well.

    Paradox Interactive's games tend to be both of these things at once. They are deeply complex games, with steep learning curves, that require patience, tenacity, focus, and the ability to multitask.

    I already have a day job, I don't need a second unpaid one at night.

    21 minutes is not enough time for me to make a fair objective judgement of Victoria 3, but this project was never about objectivity. It was about whether I enjoyed a game enough to keep playing it.

    Victoria 3 seems to be a well developed, and incredibly deep grand strategy game. Will I play it again?

    1: Nope

  14. TurnBasedLovers has released another article called "Top 10 Turn-Based Strategy Games Of 2023".
    The list includes obvious candidates like #GalCiv4 and the latest entry in the #Spellforce series, but also more hidden gems like Revival: Recolonization, #Victoria3 or Masters of Magic. And it features Battle Of #wesnoth one of the best open source games out there.
    Take a look at the article, and tell us if you agree!

  15. I just had an interesting thought exercise: here's an analysis of the circular flow of income, money and other dynamics of economic simulation in Victoria 3.

  17. As a fan of #Paradox strategies, I was looking forward to the new #Victoria3,but the game went in a different direction than I expected.

    Those who are used to #EuropaUniversalis, #HeartsOfIron and the previous #Victoria will be surprised:

    There are absolutely no troops on the map,nothing to send from province to province.

    I didn't follow the development much and only discovered it in the reviews. Some people even like it. But I'm probably old-fashioned for "strategic-clicking" game style.😞
