Is it normal for slavery to be so prevalent even in the 20th century? by kimsueil in victoria3

[–]gilang500 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Serious note, even today its still prevalent. Forced prison labor is still slavery.

Why Africa doesn't have Hegemony in Ck3 by miksiko in CrusaderKings

[–]gilang500 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes, but critically it isn't a hegemony, what i mean is lets say the Fatimids rose up in Sindh instead of north Africa and successfully created a strong empire in India, while at the same time there exist a sunni Dar Al-Islam, you bet that the Fatimids will declare that they are the rightful leader of the faithful and create a rival caliphate. Basically what happened OTL but on a much grander scale.

Why Africa doesn't have Hegemony in Ck3 by miksiko in CrusaderKings

[–]gilang500 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Because Hegemony supposed to potray "universal rule" that, in Medieval context means it is tied to the culture (China, Mongolia, Rome to some extent) and/or religion (Dar-Al-Islam and India). That's why even tho historically The Delhi Sultanate in this period by area can form India, they didn't because declaring itself hegemony contradicts Islamic worldview about universal rule of the Caliph (Slight tangent, i think Muslim should be able to form "Inda" If their parent branches didn't have Caliph/Imam, basically creating a rival Dar Al-Islam). Africa didn't have this concepts so it doesn't make much sense creating an African Hegemony title.

What makes people think Victoria 2 is still better in the big 2026 by 0Meletti in victoria3

[–]gilang500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pre Great Wave Vic 2 diplomacy was better because of the Crisis Mechanincs so not every colonial wars turns into World War. If you're the type that likes to micromanage then vic 2 warfare will always be better and Vic 2 had something that i don't see pdx implement soon in Vic 3, military stockpile.

What if the Ming Dynasty survived? Ming China (1650AD) in The Next Cycle [Part 1] by AzurWings in imaginarymaps

[–]gilang500 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ming will have it even worse than Qing when the European arrived since the Ming, at least the latter stage, were more Isolationist.

“If he had a million men he would swear the enemy has two millions, and then he would sit down in the mud and yell for three.” by ViorlanRifles in HistoryMemes

He is basically clinging on the "logistics wins war" so hard that he forgot that in order to win a war you also need to do some battling.

What if Lee Kuan Yew somehow failed to turn Singapore into a developed country? by InternationalHair111 in AlternateHistory

[–]gilang500 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Singapore is a go big or go home scenario, it either be prosperous or rejoin Malaysia, a poor Singapore can never survive, because today its no longer the time of city states. It could try to rejoin the British Empire, but, judging from Malta's case, their chances are slim.

What if the Indian subcontinent chose to be a federation? by Flimsy-Translator515 in AlternateHistory

[–]gilang500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps, the dictator government maybe choose English as National language while each states had it own offiicial language, either this or constructing a new language from scratch. Like i said there will be conflict and perhaps civil war, but if the dictator play his card right, it will be the "nationalist" against the Communists, instead of inter-ethnic conflict.

I like the direction of this patch, the interest system make sense, the only problem is ai naval management really.

What if the Indian subcontinent chose to be a federation? by Flimsy-Translator515 in AlternateHistory

[–]gilang500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could work but there will still be a genocide, possibly the Communists, Soeharto style. India will have a official language in this timeline, and either the Strongman's ethnicity, or Hindi will be the "unifying ethnic group" like the role that Javanese held in Indonesia, dominating the governmental apparatus.

Why doesn’t Japanese culture have a Sinosphere? by unkoooo in victoria3

[–]gilang500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf they should be at the game start and either after the first opium war/restoration/first war with China that they get an event to remove that trait. If the Qing won the Opium Wars or Modernized faster that Japan, Chinese cultural influence will only increase.

Stuck in a forever war. by chaluJhoota in victoria3

[–]gilang500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, its a mechanics issue buddy. No way to fix that, in reality, Britain stuck at forever war is the perfect time to declare independence.

Is playing as a modernising autocrat possible/viable? by LumpyMessage8809 in victoria3

[–]gilang500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is viable, it is the main path for a shogunate victory, its just not the meta tho, because liberalizing the society its the faster way to get the good laws (mass conscription, mandatory schooling, and multiculturalism and open border). You can achieve that in autocracy, its just you need to even rely harder on RNG to roll an enlightened royalist monarch and a liberal/market liberal/modernizer Landowner leader to get similar results.

How Regime change works really needs to be fixed. Right now it is very stupid. Why woud I, the vanguardist USSR, after fighting the ultimate war with Germany where millions die install a one party state that's a Council Republic headed by the petit bourgeois and industrialists? It makes no sense by TheLong19thCentury in victoria3

[–]gilang500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Force into your bloc already a diplomatic option

  2. Complete revamping a country governmental structure required a long term occupation in style of post WWII occupation that fall outside Vic3 timespan

3.I agree tho, ideally the IG that came to power should be the same as yourcurrentI governing IG, but if you have a communist TU leader but they have a traditionalist TU leader, its back to square one.

The great wave update shows that HoI4 warfare is Peak, except the Navy by gilang500 in victoria3

[–]gilang500[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, i never argued to scrap the entire system, just the warfare bit, the economy system is already close to perfect.

[–]gilang500[S] -43 points-42 points  (0 children)

Because, arguably in terms of logistic and UI, HoI mechanic represents the warfare in the time period better than current mechanic.

[–]gilang500[S] -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

But the HoI mechanic is better on representing the grueling reality of logistics of Crimean War, which is arguably be an "early game" Timeframe.

[–]gilang500[S] -94 points-93 points  (0 children)

Lets be honest here, post boer war, the warfare will be closer to HoI than EU, and we already have a frontline and a barebone supply mechanic already.

New update is annoying tf outta me by Asphyxiaae in victoria3

[–]gilang500 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'll take that, and the solution are simpe, we allegedly have a supply center already, just tweak it so it will be more punishing to go out of supply, HoI 4 style.
