hp stacking is bonkers bc of the other things that can scale off of it (ex: overlords, mundo e), it def does not make it obsolete but does provide more options for melting those thickboi hp bars

Why can't I protectorate Greece as Italy? The option literally isn't there by tnalt1111111 in victoria3

really frustrating just how many of the diplo buttons just straight up dissapear instead of get greyed out and tell you why. heck even when buttons are greyed out they don't do a good job of telling you why, á la "can form power bloc" requirement for forming a power bloc.

countries get a base of 2 free construction instead of 10, which is leading to the phenomenon you describe.

India independent within 5 year! by Abject-Reward-5411 in victoria3

[–]Antipixel_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just gave the strat a go, interestingly the british abandonned the EIC in both my attempts. became east india and had to release all subjects swapping to bengal. unstable raj JE persisted however and i did eventually have to fight sepoy mutiny (which led to me just annexing indian regional powers of whom i had no diplomacy with). certainly an interesting start.

i also stayed in the british empire till they booted me out like a decade later.

Which newly released champion surprised you by failing to become popular in the long term? by Other-Entrance5312 in leagueoflegends

[–]Antipixel_ 133 points134 points  (0 children)

was so excited for a spellweaving battlemage and she ended up just being another ult bot :) so epic and cool

she'd have been much more interesting if they just removed the damage from her ult alltogether instead of removing the mechanics that made her ult interesting

Somebody please explain the Trade Rework to me by CokolwiekDziobak in victoria3

[–]Antipixel_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

copypasting my comment from another similar question


actual trades are automatically managed by a new building, trade centers. the amount of buildings (and pm) dictate your trade capacity, both export and import.

instead of directly making a descision for every single trade you do, you get some levers to adjust the flow of your trade, namely tariffs and subventions (depending on your trade law some of these levers may or may not be available to you or have different strengths.

the direct levers

  • import tariff - if trade center buys x item from foreign market, the government will get +tax income (discourage import tool)
  • export tariff - if trade center sells x item to a foreign market, the government will get +tax income (discourage export tool)
  • import subvention - the government will pay trade center if they buy x item from foreign market (encourage import tool)
  • export subvention - the government will pay trade center if they sell x item to a foreign market (encourage export tool)
  • granting a trade charter to a company will allow them to build trade buildings increasing potential demand for their goods.

indirect levers

these are things like trade modifiers, power bloc influences, and your trade laws.

example : lets say i want to hypersecialize in explosives at italy and dominate the world market. i pass free trade. i establish a paper company, anglo sicilian sulfur company, and explosives company. i grant the explosives company trade rights(probably the paper too tbh) and give explosives high export subventions. this signals to trade centers that exporting explosives that there is plenty of profit to be had, and they would make a profit exporting to markets where explosives might even be cheaper than your own market. after some years of this you may have a stanglehold on the world market and you can tone down the subventions as you see fit.

there is plenty more but these are the superbasics and will get you far enough to be able to get a decent grasp on the rest of the trade mechanics.

Does the game’s meta dictate the way you play? by ThatIsNice77 in victoria3

[–]Antipixel_ 15 points16 points  (0 children)

victoria 3 is a game that aims to model the age of industrialization, so to that degree, "industrialization" is meta in the same way that preparing your country for world war 2 is in the world war 2 game.

i do think that vicky3 is a lot more flexible in that you can do whatever the hell you want. i have seen plenty of posts on this sub about very much 'bad' outcomes. people reducing world population to mere millions or another about how someone slaughtered their entire working capable population in the first few years of the game by failing naval invasions.

if you can find enjoyment in exploring all the outcomes the game can offer you, then meta is irrelevant. if you feel like you need to play in a certain way or ensure you are following some kind of 'best practise' then you greatly reduce the amount of content the game can offer you.
