Here’s the trailer: And here’s the answer: they’ll put complaints about DLC and bugs in the comments. Plus ça change. If you don’t know, Victoria is another of Paradox’s grand strategy games, this time focused on simulating the social and economic machinery of the Victorians. There’s war, sure, but you’ll generally spend less time on the battlefield than in Europa Universalis, and more time pulling economic levers and twirling diplomatic knobs. Although that didn’t stop me, in my role as adviser, recommending a war with the Netherlands when Alice was playing a preview build last week. She invaded Denmark instead: Victoria 3 has bragged a lot about its “deep social simulation”, and Alice found it advanced enough that her country hummed along without leadership quite nicely. I’ve never played a Victoria game before but I’m looking forward to messing with its simulation in a couple of months when it releases via Steam.
