So in that respect, if you look at it from the cold, rational perspective, it might not be as popular as Crusader Kings 3. On the one hand, people think Victoria 3 is a much more niche game, that it will be harder to get into. So I would say yes and no.Īnd Wiz (that’s his name on the net) also answers my next question quite down to earth: Will sales and audience size keep up with Crusader Kings 3?
I’m cautiously optimistic…but of course I believe in it, because otherwise I wouldn’t have implemented it into the game like that. (…) But we won’t really know until release. (…) We have had a lot of reactions and we think that overall there are a lot of players who are really looking forward to it, but also players who are not looking forward to it at all. Because it is such a fundamental change from what we have been doing. (…) We know that it will be controversial in some ways. This is something we were prepared for from the beginning. When asked if they were prepared for criticism of their war system, he replied: He is well aware of the strengths and weaknesses of his game. We are prepared for criticismīut the conversation with Martin Anward, the game director of the new title, was particularly interesting. In addition, I was able to play a little more Victoria 3 with Steinwallen and ask the developers questions about the trading system. Although this sounds very dull, the room was packed and the audience was spellbound – Paradox fans. Besides the usual Q&A panels, there was, for example, a very detailed talk about the in-game economy. So I hardly mind that the war mechanics are very rudimentary and boring.Īt the Paradox in-house exhibition in Stockholm, I was able to gather more information about Victoria 3. Because so far there is no strategy game in which I have as much fun with politics, society and economy as I do here. The reason for this is quite simple: Victoria 3 will be different from all other games I know. And by the way, he also learned a lot about possible post-release content. Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous TipsĪuthor Kevin was able to talk to Martin Anward, Game Director of Victoria 3, at PDXCon about the special market niche Victoria 3 wants to place itself in.
