I'd like to see it succeed, but if it's a mess, I'm happy to keep playing with 1.6.

OPB playing 1.7:

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

So, like, I know everything must be a meme and for the lolz, but the fact that they keep with the "sponsored pre-release streams have ridiculous game-breaking playthroughs" thing is telling me the patch is likely broken like previous ones when they did this.

I must have bought the deluxe version that gave me everything before - as I see steam lets me have the Victoria bundle with only that new DLC and I can get bundle discount so it costs 17.99 alone.

Yeah, hopefully some of this gets nerfed. Saw a guy playing Prussia => Germany and he got insane migration from, well, everywhere (including USA).

I also don't like that Power Blocs seem to be like CK3 bloodlines, you rack up points and unlock increasingly OP bonuses. Wait and click for bonuses (the EU4 and CK3 way) should NOT be Vic3's direction.

You mean CK2 bloodlines, right? :P

Whatever the feature is called in CK3 where you accumulate points for your dynasty and unlock fantasy-style bonuses with it.

Oh, legacies. Not nearly as OP as bloodlines were, though. :P

That you don't like "click button, get bonus" mechanics? :P

Yes. I see power blocs as the first step toward the EU4-ification of Vic3 in a bad way. Hopefully I am wrong.

To me they seem too rigid and "gamey" with the monument building etc. I don't like them being called "Power Blocs" because I think that makes them sound more organized (NATO) rather than a more informal (voluntary or involuntary) grouping of countries led by a major power. Kind of, I don't know ... a Sphere of Influence? :P

Had what I think my first Vic3 CTD before even unpausing or taking an action. Not a good start. No mods of course.
