Fun game that’s better than Victoria 3 but its dated

Good but aged very poorly in terms of graphics and UI/UX

while vanilla is borderline unplayable and the games' systems can't hold together under any amount of prodding, the dedicated fanbase and modding community for this game makes it worth trying out. great facilitator for multiplayer roleplay if nothing else

lowkey the best map game oat, no debate. sucks that paradox is a shit company and let the sequel be dogshit but yk u win u lose


Lovely addiction and most complete paradox game.
Timeless Strategy masterpiece

it's sad that this game hid it's potential. it's so dependent on DLC's that the main game it's kinda boring. but it's a cool one, I had fun trying to make Brazil a superpower in the 1800s.

Victoria II, without mods, can be fun, but it get stale very quickly, it realy lacks content, as most Paradox games do;

The army management isn't bad in early game, but mid and especially late game, it turns into a chore; it lacks QoL, such as army templates and not having to manually manage the battalions losses;

There's barely any content in the game, after playing it in vanilla, after 3-5 runs you will feel that the game is empty, there are barely any political decisions to do, even as a relevant nations like Austria;

The economy is a bit of a mess, I doubt that even the devs know excatly how it works;

Spheres of Influence are a neat mechanic, but it also needs QoL, mantaining a sphere of influence with many countries is boring, early game Austria/Prussia, if you plan to create Germany, is annoying as hell, it should have at least some degree of automation;

The research tree is good, the combat is also fun, the way that cultures work is also great, but religions should be a bit more important in the game;

But still, this is my favorite Paradox game, with mods it really is a blast.

A good game, but so hard to learn.

(the part economic I not learn until today)

Such an addicting game with so much replayibility. Has some issues but nothing could give an experience like it

Amazing game that still holds up as the best in the genre even ten years after it's original release.

it's unfortunate that victoria 3 sucks as much as it does, because this game could've used a major overhaul that keeps the soul intact

I FUCKING LOVE WAR!
I LOVE DESTROYING CULTURES AND KILLING PEOPLE FOR MONEY!

Game is broken and doesn't work properly without DLCs

Jogar esse sem as músicas e os efeitos sonoros é um pecado kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
