![]() ![]() This is all based on a multitude of factors such what is the standard of living, wealth, do they have jobs, what laws are passed, etc. This seems pretty simple just pass laws you want and moves on, but that is not exactly how things work as players must grapple with interest groups along with making their pops (various population groups) happy. Players control almost all aspects of their country this includes the laws enacted, what products are manufactured and produced, and their relations with other countries. Victoria 3 is a strategy game so the relays the players looking at information and making decisions based on this information. You have selected your country and got your objective, so now what? This is where all the decision-making occurs. This is a great addition while it only spans 100 years, it does take quite a while to finish a general game. Players do have the ability to change countries during the game so if they want to change it up they are more than welcome to thus while making a selection is important there is the ability to change if things go awry and not have to entirely start the game over. While players can select almost any nation of the time there are some countries that you are not allowed to select and these are “Decentralized Nations” as these nations usually and historically get colonized. Now each country has its pros and cons but just because you start as Great Britain doesn’t mean things will be super easy as in you will have many more things to manage such as colonies, a larger economy, and more countries out to bring you down, etc. When selecting a country players need to decide how much of a challenge they want as they need to factor in many various aspects even simple things such as the land mass size of a country or location. This obviously comes with many different obstacles depending on the players’ objectives. This brings a unique type of gameplay that is not found in many games in that not everyone starts on a level playing field. This means if you try to play an Economic Dominance game there is a vast difference in selecting Great Britain, a Great Power of the time, vs say the Kongo. All countries start as they were in the year 1836 so who you pick in a lot of ways defines how you have to play along with any realistic goals of playing the game. One of the coolest things about Victoria 3 is selecting a country to play as. Sandbox mode allows players to just play with no general objectives. Egalitarian Society players strive to have the best quality of life for their populations. Hegemony challenges players to control most of the world’s population throughany means necessary. Economic Dominance is about controlling the world’s economy and GDP. Learn the Game gives the player unique guided challenges and helps the player understand the basic concepts of Victoria 3. These games include Learn the Game, Economic Dominance, Hegemony, Egalitarian Society, and Sandbox. These “game types” all play pretty much the same way with the only difference being that the players have a different set of objectives to accomplish during the 100 years. Victoria 3 starts out with players choosing one of the five different “game types” available along with then selecting a country. Victoria 3 is the third iteration in the Paradox Interactive franchise coming twelve long years after the release of Victoria II in 2010. ![]() This is done through various political, economic, and diplomatic decisions. Set in 1836 players select a country to guide and play out the next 100 years, until 1936, to see how their decisions will change history.
