V3 is definitely be the closest that any game I've played has come to capturing the gameplay experience of Imperialism, and that includes the previous two Victoria games (which were more similar to Paradox's other titles)

I hope they put in different types of voting systems at some point, in maybe some kind of "Democracy update". Changing around the voting systems and seeing how it affected the composition of parties over time was one of the things I really enjoyed in V2 and I hope it comes back. There's plenty of DLC potential too! Imagine being able to paint gerrymandered districts like fronts in HOI4!

all of the above tbh. you make buildings that produce raw materials and goods in your market that then affect the base price for the good based on supply vs demand to determine cost when used by either your population (which is simulated in far more detail than Imperialism). Autarky is possible, but will involve either playing as an already massive country and even then you usually lack something or don't have enough of it and must then either trade for it or take over land that has it.
alternatively, start as Japan and the early to midgame will give you all the autarky you could possibly want

It's a immersion pack which is generally going to be country-specific content. I like that there's only a minimal amount of reason to buy if you don't want to play as France.

Yeah, the "remove annoying character" button is the only thing that is just randomly DLC gated for no reason. I think it's minor enough that I can forgive that since otherwise there's no content in the whole DLC other than French stuff.

Hard to complain about this model nowadays. You still get most of the cool stuff in the patch. Some cool button gets disabled until you buy an expansion, but lately EU4, Stellaris and CK3 expansion policy feels right to me, it's not like they hide stuff like development or transfer occupation behind patch and pretend you can live without them. As always, I'm more concerned about how hard it is for developers to design features around the fact that the player can have any combination of the expansions, but it's mostly a hidden cost till some bug appears.

Also, the ability to produce high quality stuff, not just more of it. Doesn't feel that prestigious being the number 1 producer of a thing, if there's no craftsmanship behind it.
I know what you mean but it doesn't look like devs ever planned for something like this. We already have plenty of goods that are straight up high quality version of other goods, and all the production methods and events that imply improved quality give you more quantity instead. I guess there's logic behind it, something like this phone is so cool it would replace two inferior phones so lets just pretend we actually produced two phones.

Something like that can be an interesting addition to the economic system, especially if the economy is more regional. I can't think of an example in the Victorian era, but you can probably think of numerous examples when a country became known for producing products in a specific price/quality zone. Bohemian glass, Chilean wine, Swiss chocolate and clocks, Swedish furniture. Every country produces all of it but you might want to seek out an imported good because of it's quality or price.

Good day what ho cup of tea

I think the bit that burns me out most on the game is still the construction system. In the early game I'm very micro-managey with it and all the decisions I take with it feel like they matter a lot - how many construction sectors to build, setting up supply chains from the ground up and so on.
By mid-game when I've got thousands of construction points, there are technically a lot more decisions to make since I'm building a lot more buildings, but none of the decisions matter nearly as much as the early-game decisions. I often just let the AI run it all, and it feels like I've checked out of the game, and I stop playing.
The political system is similar, now that I think about it. Early on, everything is very impactful - implementing voting, progressive taxation and so on are all big changes to how the country operates. But by mid-game I'll have almost all the laws I want and the system gets ignored.

After several games it feels like differences between country-specific economies disappear very quickly. The system is quite complex so it's a shame. Maybe it's my fault for being afraid to specialize, as anyone I play ends up producing almost everything except for really rare resources like Opium. There are of course big differences like some parts of the world have so many people they won't have the ability to tax them till the end game. I understand the devs really don't want to balance the game with more restrictions for the player (and AI) but I can't help but wonder if it would work better with more diverse regions putting limitations on you. As for now my path to economic dominance feels very similar past the early game troubles, there's only a question of when I switch to electricity.

I think one thing that might help, and that is grounded in history, is that industrialization and the economic and military might it leads to should create tension between great powers. I’d love to see more reactivity in the international arena, simply.

Treaties which limit army/navy force limits, upon pain of infamy/embargo, should be a thing after certain technological milestones. Either as something you can enforce via peace deal or a multilateral agreement between Great Powers. Something to include with eventual proper Scramble for Africa mechanics, hopefully.

As it is right now, the AI isn't aggressive enough as per history in terms of seeking greater supply (meaning expanding stuff to get cheaper stuff) while also securing demand. That, by itself, would lead to conflict pretty much naturally.
One thing that comes to mind is that can be forced (and it would be proper) by having the equivalent of dorf fortress' noble demands. A group of Concerned Industrialists coming to the cabinet room, stern faces and worried brows, saying that industrial growth of [somecountry] is eating into our export share, that we need access to larger and more abundant sources of raw materials and this government must seize the opportunity into Africa and Asia because otherwise we are going to be speaking some foreign language in less than a decade, etc
Of course, that's just a raw idea, because if I am imagining things right, to workshop this would require further development. Like having to measure capitalist profitability among those pops in a country against the others elsewhere in proportion to their global market share, which whew. But having a "We Demand Imperialism" political factor and active demand might be a great friction incentive to make things more electric

IGs having foreign policy agendas is definitely one of my biggest wishlist items. Having ideologies also affect their approval of the wargoals you set and achieve (or fail to) would be pretty cool.

You should think of subsistence farms as your worker pool. They're better than unemployed but they basically don't contribute to the economy.
Food is relatively cheap and easy to import. It is also a big part of poor strata expenses, but I think it's easier to improve their conditions by making clothes and furniture cheaper. I'd recommend working on producing that.
Of course there are no wrong answers, you can probably get by only having farms, but I feel like "default" path is industrialising, exploiting all of your natural resources and stuff you can produce from it, and only care about agriculture products when their price is too high, and even then it's easier to buy from less industrialised countries.

Alright, cheers! Settled in to playing as Colombia, so there's plenty of iron, coal, and timber knocking about, but not starting off with much (or anything) - agriculture can be the private sector's problem until I invent communism

Ah yes, another issue with agriculture is that it will be owned by aristocrats, they get more money and power and then they'll block any law change because they like Feudalism.
