Agreed, the great flavour Mods like HPM and HFM (along with console commands) are what made V2 interesting and fun to play long after I learned how it worked.

The troop stacking and moving in V2 was fun up to a point, when you got big it could become a tedious chore though. I welcome the fresh approach to warfare in V3 with less direct control, "unfinished" as it is atm.

The other basic systems in V3, politics, pops, economy etc are far superior IMO, even if they still need some tweaking. I will wait patiently for the glorious days when the game is more complete, and the heroic Modders have had time to work their magic.

For now I'll just pass the Copium to the left hand side

yea i cant lie i have one full run on Vicky 3. If you went to college for economics i get why you would like Vicky 3 but besides that idk anyone that would call staring at a spreadsheet for 12+ hours "fun"

The key difference is that Vic2 actually offers some gameplay and it wasn't that boring on the release. Vic3 is getting better with patches and DLCs, but still a bit boring

I agreed with you up to the war system, it's just uninteresting. I get your point of it being a more politics/economics focused game but that doesn't mean it has to entirely sacrifice warfare.

Waa!! Waa!!! Waawaaawaaa!!! Victoria two is betta!!!!!

@AceofSpades you should have seen the deleted comments

You just made a small cadre of 30 somethings very upset.

Vic 3 warfare is a joke bro what are you smoking

3 is only better because doing mp in 2 is almost impossible
