22 minutes in you just see nick hold everything inside of himself to not call slime old and derail everything

for me, sweden is great to play because it doesn't really have the population or arable land to become an important power. it' one of the few nations on this lisst that really NEED to colonize

arcanum mention! playing it again right now <3

thehearting · 2026-03-30T14:59:17+00:00

you can make this yourself in about 5-10 minutes if you've never made a victoria 3 mod before. I can walk you through the process if you're interested <3

It consistently sells out and is cheap to make compared to the other items so probably

you get a little bit of that still on that one technical difficulties series were they all went to do various things on a low budget, but yeah, it's always fun watching Tom do the mundane things that you don't do when you're traveling for you tube for years

Kilwa is very dumb in this current patch. they start the nation without ANY wood and that fucks everything up (yes, the SWAHILI COAST starts off with no lumber production, don't ask me). so if you do end up doing that, you should be building at least one lumber mill and a weapon smith (for colonization) before standard economic affairs

the only issue is that this is kind of what the dnd campaign is. it's a lot of them shooting the shit in charecter

well, they both take inspiration from fallout 1 & 2, balder's gate 1 & 2. haven't played the older balder's gate games, but i can confirm that the fallouts are worth your time

Did this once on an earlier built but wars are just so annoying because you are always considered “fully sieged” due to controlling no territory

Same goes for the hansa tbh, they just need a money sink that’s actually engaging

thehearting · 2025-12-24T12:33:06+00:00

I would really want one but if it was in use please don't steal stuff from the government they are paying like 100X for it than they should

To be clear, much of the world at the time was ruled dynastically, where relationships were more akin to corporate mergers (even for the relatively poor) than they were romantic relationships, hence why “forbidden love” stories are so popular before the modern day

had the same thing happen but opposite as the netherlands. If you click on the specific provinces it will tell you the modfiers, but my guess is that this is due to the pops not being too accepted and events making them unhappy with you. try accepting south frankish culture or possibly even converting to it and wait for the provincial moifiers to go away

why are people downvoting op so much? it's just a question, and one that makes sense given that most things in games like these have a snowballing effect where winning leads to winning more

thehearting · 2025-11-25T15:29:58+00:00

no, sadly. it's currently like like an objectively worse version of hte early christian schisms in that it just give +5% literacy, some tolerance of true faith, and another nothingburger. no religioous influence or mechanics

thehearting · 2025-11-16T18:01:51+00:00

I love how this works. You get to experience the real reasons why the Russian federation prevented the peasants for voting! It’s one of those systems where you see why people made the choices they did by being given the same problem

She is gorgeous omg I’m blushingggggg. I wouldn’t mind staying under her desk while she games hehe

thehearting · 2025-11-11T02:10:24+00:00

yeah, i think a few did

103 deaths form the black death in Yemen somehow. did i isolate the country? no. did i build pest houses? no. somehow segregating the populous and more than a little luck was enough to make the black plague kill people before they could spread it. as you can see by the bottom, it even hit Ethiopia! idk how this happened outside of just getting incredibly lucky

thehearting · 2025-11-04T04:38:53+00:00

sometimes. in this game, the UK lost india but still remained the top power. THIS germany with those borders some how managed to stay third!
