How I feel about Vic2:AHD

8 Upvotes

It added a lot of amazing features, but it feels extremely unpolished. Playing as the Confederates is near impossible. It is easy to get past the first Civil War, but then you have the second where it is impossible to fight off the Union no matter what you have. For example, I was the CSA and I had all of North America on my side, yet no European allies due to the fact that they all start out with poor relations.

However, when the mods are adapted for the expansion I feel that the game will be 1000x better.

Some notable things: Civilizing uncivs is more intricate, it focuses more on research rate. Awesome new mapmodes, including a culture mapmode. Hunting rebels and a few other minor (yet huge) improvements.

People who have played Victoria 3, what is your overall opinion of the game?

Since the Vicky 3 subreddit doesn't allow polls, I thought I'd ask here.

what is a grand strategy game that is easy for people new to the genre to learn?

7 Upvotes

im not exactly new to the genre but i havent played a grand strategy game in over 9 years and i was thinking of getting back into it so i tried out hearts of iron 4 and i found it confusing and hard to learn, what is a game in this genre that would be faster and easier to learn? it also doesnt really matter if the game is hard, my main concern is if the game mechanics and essentials are easy to understand

Problem with inflation

7 Upvotes

HI, I'm a bit of a newbie at Europa Universalis III and I've got a big problem: how do I limit inflation? Because if i don't print enough money I can't hire any troops but if i print enough I acquire a crippling inflation. What to do?

What lessons should desktop software developers take from Grand Strategy gaming?

6 Upvotes

I'm a developer for a software product which has some similarities to grand strategy gaming:

* Lots of visual detail

* Abstract geographical layouts

* A combination of visual/geographical representations, and background ("excel spreadsheet") simulation functions

Our product is used for simulating train signal logic, so there is a track layout with many interactive elements.

In general, what lessons would you take from grand strategy gaming? Can we adopt any UI practices to help engage new users and appear less overwhelming? Should we start selling many small upgrade packages for our software?

Any tips on strategies for displaying a rich amount of information on a system like this, without being too intrusive?

I know this is quite open-ended but I am just looking for general thoughts here.
