Okay, I'm like halfway through the Vicky 2 tutorial. I haven't really *played* one of these games before, but before I make myself finish this, and watch six hours of videos on how to play the game that the tutorial doesn't tell me:

Is this shit actually fun? Do you enjoy this? Or is it just a trap where you spend so long learning the game that you pretend to like it to validate that investment?

Also, you shouldn't bother with Paradox tutorials. They're widely known to be crap.

If you get pleasure in watching dutch pops migrating to South Africa and outbreeding the natives, or watching the culture map of the US becoming more and more yankee each year, or the culture map of Russia showing Siberia being assimilated then go ahead. If you don't the game is not for you

>>146696189
There's like 7 billion people in the world, and only a few small populations are unrecorded. 0.1% of 7 billion is like 7 million people, which is by no means common but still a lot.

What I'm trying to say is that it's not that common, and because it's uncommon is actually how people are able to pick out the cases and get statistical measurements.

Reposting this question from the previous thread:

Made a mini-mod to CK2plus. Added extra Nestorian holy sites in India because St. Thomas. Tried playing some count tier test games. One of two things usually happened:

1) Vassal lord would sieze my titles, even with good relations
2) I would be bored shitless on the Maldives for centuries

So now I'm considering starting as a duke or king, which I very rarely do in CK2, and using them for my Nestorian fun run in India. But which one?

Diamonds, homogenous country, extremely few whites to begin with, semi-competent half-democracy (ruling party has been the same since foundation). Didn't outright reject western ideals on independence, my guess since black repression was minimal in the area. Accepted Western aid for uses other than enriching their own wallet. Least corrupt country on the continent, though that's not saying much.

I'd imagine it boils down to homogeneity in both political ideals and a culture that's not totally irredeemable.

There's also no evidence that the public school system covers up instances of child abuse, unlike the catholic church.

Yeah, that's why you get instances where the fucking police covers up child abuse cases, but ya know, muh evil pedo priests.

>>146702908
I'm not saying it invalidates it, I'm saying that it invalidates the argument that "theocracies are bad because they don't fit in a game about dynasties" because playing as a merchant republic is NOT playing as a dynasty.
There are tons of other arguments you could've made against theocracies and yet you chose the worst one.
Please don't start this shit again.

>>146703310
I'm pretty sure most police are pedos themselves.

When you play as a merchant republic, you play as one of the republic's noble families. When elections happen, it's entirely possible for another family to win. And then you have to plot to get your family back in power.

>there's probably still a significant difference in the quality of the computer they're using, and the speed of their internet, and the services they have access to.
Can confirm this, our internet speed is a joke, every public service is shit, and even though we DO have acess to high end pcs, the insanely high importation taxes on eletronic goods makes the price triple, making it impossible for the average person to have high end computers or replace them with the same frequency as a first world person does.

What's the easiest game to get into after playing Vicky 2? I kinda wanna try HoI3/4 but I hear it's easily the most complex paradox game out there

>>146708618

Anyway, victoria 2 looks pretty fucking confusing, I have literally no idea what is the difference between these different units or shit, just looking at this game makes me cringe!

Guess it will take some getting used to, is victoria 3 any good? I might buy it off steam if it is.

Send the fleet into battle like you normally would and if the CAGs are on CAG duty which is their default mission it will play out fine.
If you are playing a major power like Japan, Italy or the UK with multiple surface actiong roups and carrier fleets then you engage with the SAG, park the CTF in the adjacent sea province and give the CAGs the naval strike mission over the battle.

The most satisfying part of grand strategy games is being able to both map paint and choose social policies that fit my personal views.

E.g. I'd always pick bill of rights in EU3 and blob

Is this still doable in EU4? From what I've seen it's now harder to map paint, especially in Europe (which is understandable). Is this true?

Okay fags so I'm playing CK2 in the Viking era as the high chief of the Finnfags. What should my casus belli be when I declare war on another Finnish chief? Should I use subjugation, or press de jure claim? I'm having a hard time telling what the difference is but I chose the King of Finland ambition which is what unlocked subjugation as an option.

>>146710794
Dejure will cause you to take the county yourself if the owner has land elsewhere, subjugation will put them under you entirely. Don't use subjugation unless you have the "Become King" ambition.

>>146710794

>>146710827
USA fuccboi mode doesn't work well since you have to be Laissez-faire/Free Market and fact that you can't do a lot of social programs fucks you over

I did pick that ambition. Sorry, I'm really new to this, but I still don't really understand the ramifications of one vs. the other.

Also I just realized I have hardly any fucking levies as this character. What's the best way to get a bigger army? I don't have much gold either so I can't really use mercenaries yet.

>>146711110
Off by one from quints. Not sure if I should keep playing CK2 or kill myself.

If you use De jure claim wisely you can expand your own personal demesne, which is your powerbase that you administrate directly. Using subjugation will allow you to conquer land quicker, but it will always be directly ruled by someone else.
