Being incapable of choosing what policies a country you release have is honestly stupid.

Love Chinese civil wars tho.
See Afghanistan and Iraq for examples of what trying to micromanage a foreign country's laws results in. In reality, countries like Britain had a very minimal ability to alter laws and had to consider the clashing cultural and societal views if they didn't want to have a permanent military occupation.

"How are you winning" is the same thing I say every time playing Vic 3, oh your fully modernized army is beaten by some peasent lavies with muskets? Deal with it. But if AI attacked you with your type of troops they are gonna win for some reason
You guys remember when people complained about Warfare in Victoria 2 so Paradox decided to more or less just remove it for Victoria 3? What a great decision. Paradox AI is so smart it's just thinking 80 steps ahead when it teleports your troops across the entire world when a front splits.
Best Thing are supply convoys. If you reduce them to 0% you stop everything except manpower reinforcement to armys, because they get teleported from the barracks to your army.
And people kept insisting it was for the best. One of these days paradox will drop a major update that will introduce moving your troops by hand lmao. Reminds me of stellaris and sectors, took years until they just gave up their weird less micro system and let people control their planets.
@@tioseba7sectors actually had a gameplay balance purpose. The sector system was replaced by empire size, to try and retain some balance between tall and wide. Wide is still stronger but without size or sectors it would be a stomp

Paradox sponsors the game and within 4 minutes there are game-ruining bugs due to the poorly implemented battle system that is still not fixed after 2 years _Slow Clap_ I was really looking forward to this game but I honestly see less reason to buy now than when it came out as not only does it not work but you now need to shell out for even more DLC so its an even bigger demand.

Fuck victoria 3.
wild that this is the best gameplay you could get for a sponsored video, peak paradox interactive right there
ethnic musical chairs is basically the while video, one tiny war and numbers getting bigger. yawn!
@@Bronimin Hard to get fun wars going pre release as I can't get a full lobby going + mods don't work. Same thing for hoi4 sponsored videos really.
Just because a game doesn't make for good viewing content doesn't mean the game isn't fun to play.
@@LaFonteCheViwhile true, vic3 also isnt fun to play.
@@LaFonteCheVi The video is fun, as Bo videos almost always are. It does make for a good viewing expeirence and a fuckawful playing experience, what with the game being intolerable and iredeemable shite.

"How are you winning" is the same thing I say every time playing Vic 3, oh your fully modernized army is beaten by some peasent lavies with muskets? Deal with it. But if AI attacked you with your type of troops they are gonna win for some reason
You guys remember when people complained about Warfare in Victoria 2 so Paradox decided to more or less just remove it for Victoria 3? What a great decision. Paradox AI is so smart it's just thinking 80 steps ahead when it teleports your troops across the entire world when a front splits.
if there is no warfare , it can't be bad - Somebody in Paradox probably :D
Best Thing are supply convoys. If you reduce them to 0% you stop everything except manpower reinforcement to armys, because they get teleported from the barracks to your army.
@@Asmodi16 maybe they have those tardis machines from dr. who ::DDD
And people kept insisting it was for the best. One of these days paradox will drop a major update that will introduce moving your troops by hand lmao.
Reminds me of stellaris and sectors, took years until they just gave up their weird less micro system and let people control their planets.
@@tioseba7sectors actually had a gameplay balance purpose. The sector system was replaced by empire size, to try and retain some balance between tall and wide. Wide is still stronger but without size or sectors it would be a stomp
Perfect way to describe Victoria 3: You ************
Paradox games in general 😂. Stellaris on console makes me wanna fight god at times
@@kyle99223 It'd be a considerably less futile effort than trying to micro to keep a wide empire from falling apart out of neglect
I so badly want Victoria III to be good but the ui is trash and the game is STILL a buggy hot mess with the worst mechanics. That teleportation shit is like a metaphor for the whole game. Wars are still a joke.
Lol it's so broken. Even after getting delayed, it's so broken. 😂😂
I like how they’re just adding mechanics that should have been in the original game
i hate how they are adding mechanics that somehow seems to make the game worse
@@sovieticodiabetico6874 what? This is the best DLC in the game
@@llama878Very low bar there buddy.
@@llama878 Thats like claiming the turd you just found has the most sweetcorn in it
@@RK-cj4oc why?
still a sh*t game, i'm not paying 30 bucks for a mid update
love how v3 is still incredibly broken and paradox does not care
Bruh what?? They care??
This is literally the biggest mechanical update so far!
"they care!"
> Game still abysmally broken and nowhere near the height of VIC2
it's over bro go look at excel/spreadsheet.
@@froozigiusz what part of this video and widespread bugs suggested that the DLC has been playtested to any extent. And this isn't even a critical video, this is what paradox's marketing team wants to show off!
@@froozigiuszthe amount of bugs though… yeah I don’t think they care
This is so fucked paradox what have you done 😂
I think this is the video i needed to not buy this game. I just stay with EU4.
Still great video, like always :D
EU5 will hopefully be good
@@FishwicksREALPlease just don't hope for anything. At the best it won't be worse than base EU4. Both Vic3 and Millennia launches already proved that Pdx are stepping to be another one of the AAA companies.
Not sure I’ve ever seen Bo get quite so angry haha
last time it was hoi4 where his army in Sumatra has to sail around the island just to get to the next tile
wow, all features that were the bare basics in vic2!! and for only... 30˘bucks??
Which features?
@@Bokoen1 spheres of influece themselves first and foremost
Thomas pumping Swimmy full of his "wood" made me fall out of my chair lmao
Beautiful, I love knowing the addition of new features is prioritized over fixing glaring issues in the core gameplay, and even the DLC features can get insanely bugged like the migration feature.
12:42 Australia lost again to the Aboriginal Australians. This level of incompetence is very impressive I must say
Literally selling core gameplay features for 30$
Core gameplay features are part of the free update.
Half baked and you know it
Vicy 3 Is so boring. I just can't get myself invested in these nor is Oreos videos. There is no gameplay there
I'm gonna be honest Bo, you're not doing a good job selling me this DLC, much less the game
The university thing is so funny and that mortality rate is livid also Bo you forgot that a portal to Cuba has been built by the egyptians in their pyramids
directly between the pyramids and the Bermuda Triangle
[insert Stargate SG-1 title theme]
Funny vid, but confirmed I won't be buying the game
Paradox sponsors the game and within 4 minutes there are game-ruining bugs due to the poorly implemented battle system that is still not fixed after 2 years
_Slow Clap_
I was really looking forward to this game but I honestly see less reason to buy now than when it came out as not only does it not work but you now need to shell out for even more DLC so its an even bigger demand.
At least with EU4 and HOI4 I already have some of the DLC
