So I was watching the Vickynomics panel, and I got thinking about the Opium Wars and the enforcement of access of markets in illicit goods. Any idea if drugs are going to be just a subsection of pharmaceuticals? I didn't play a lot of Vicky 2, how were the Opium Wars handled?

Not yet, thanks to production delays in China. But Soon (TM).

This is why I legitimately think it could be a cool addition to Victoria 3 to eventually add in NGO's into the game, like Corporations to further flesh out not only the East India company but also expand upon the influence of large corporations like Exxon-Mobile, Krupp, Mitsubishi, and with modding support for the eventual modern day mods, Apple and Microsoft and Huawei and represent and simulate the ways these large corporations can influence domestic politics as a interest group in of themselves above and beyond just the mere monied interests.

ExxonMobil? I think you mean Standard Oil friend. The power Standard Oil had in contribution to American doctrine was ridiculous.

The UK taking Hong Kong and Guizhou was very funny. Someone telegraphed the fleet to take Guangzhou and made a terrible mistake.

I really feel like journals that are going to time out should get a notification, or like, once you see a journal you can pin the ones you're going to work on or not, and when the journal triggers there should also be a bigger notification? Also when you can do decisions there should also be a notification? I don't want to go into that menu all the time.

journo pops lmao

I thought shopkeepers as a whole cover that class? Educated professionals and what not?

Are you claiming journos are petit boug and not intelligentsia? Because that's a very strange idea.

Honestly the Alaska purchase should be more dynamic for sure. Have a way for a Canadian state or a resurgent Mexico to buy it too.

I just want there to be William Lyon Mackenzie and Louis Riel as agitators. I notice there is an exile but no explicit execute option for agitators which definitely also happened.

New dev diary looks very ambitious, but man, that's some major enhancements. Capitalists owning things in other states feels pretty obvious in hindsight, but it's gonna be a big deal, I bet.

Nationalizing their stuff and having a Lobby form in the imperial core immediately to pull you into their Power Bloc and force a government change on you is going to be funny. I hope there's a message for what the chances are that a Foreign Lobby gets generated.
