As one of the countries who own rightful Polish clay you can release Poland and play as them if you are a coward and want the best/only feasible way. For non-cowards play Krakow and get enough friends willing to fight Austria, Germany, and/or Russia for you.

I mean, the answer seems clear to me, get Prussia and Russia to fight Austria, get Austria and Prussia to fight Russia, and get Russia and Austria to fight Prussia. easy money.

In vicky 2 you would take galicia from Austria first as they are the weakest of the three. I'd imagine that's still true in 3 but perhaps with some cunning diplomacy you can get it without a war.

In Vicky 1 you could convert your whole country to clerics and trade technology to Mexico in exchange for some California real estate. Then release Poland to move your capital there and spend the rest of the game bringing in tons of immigrants to mine gold.

Mantis42 posted:OPB did a video about his Vicky 3 impressions, gonna watch it in a bit. This is a really good review, and he sheds light on a key point. In the review he mentions that "nations that are otherwise extremely similar in terms of population, culture, and flavor, play extremely differently based purely on mechanics". He basically identifies that Victoria 3's mechanics and interlocking systems will produce qualitatively different results based on the composition and economy of the society, and the decisions that you make. If you decide to be reactionary, the mechanics will cause you to take totally different decisions and have different historical effects than if you decide to be liberal. This really gives me enormous hope about V3! It sounds absolutely like the perfect pop-game that we've been aching for all this time.

what that dude in the long video said really inspires hope in me that small tags will be the best they ever have been in a pdox game. imagine if EU4 OPMs had different gameplay experiences based on their trade good, i would never stop being count kleinstadtdorf of nowhere towns in the HRE. decided my first game is going to be in south america to test this. going to either do uruguay to create Socialist Cowboy Paradise, or chile because they're kinda like a south american sweden situation-wise. i wonder if the war in the pacific is a journal thing, or just something dynamically likely to happen because everyone in the region wants the birdshit mines?

Funnily enough, Stellaris was the first Paradox game I bought being more used to the Civilization series. It is now my least played Paradox game that I own by a large margin. I preordered Victoria 3 today. I actually didn't just preorder it, I preordered the Grand Edition. That doesn't mean that you're not stupid if you preorder it. It just means you're in good company. Then again, I did put around ~500 hours in Victoria 2 according to Steam, and Victoria 2 is a deeply flawed game even after installing overhaul mods. edit: Just because I preordered it doesn't mean I expect it to be completely functional or even generally playable on release. I just have a feeling that I'm gonna put a lot of hours in it no matter what.

i regretted my stellaris preorder when i got the game because it was half-finished, but then they finished it so ultimately after a year or two i didn't regret it anymore. even if v3 is broken as gently caress on launch it's not gonna stay that way forever, and all indications are that apart from some AI quirks it's a finished game, if not a perfect one

I preordered the fancy edition because I know drat well I'll put as much time into a bad Paradox game as I do into most great other games. Besides, I was amongst us begging for Vicky III for years and years, I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is on it

Imperator I regret, Stellaris I had fun with in 1.0 but looking back it was a bit barren. The worst Paradox published one was Sword of the Stars 2 and holy moley, I don't think anything released by PDX studio could top that in being "feature incomplete"

Yeah, compared to how either tremendously grognardy or super old most other 4X space games were at the time Stellaris 1.0 was pretty good. I do agree looking back on it it was pretty barren though.

I regret buying Imperator at all. My thinking was that even if it was a disaster they'd fix it because they're always fixing disasters, but I guess there's an important difference between fixing a disaster that's still selling DLC and one that isn't.
