If you think about it, the Rural Folk in Victoria III are the real villains.
03.10.2023 15:51 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I just called the petit-bourgeoisie IG "chudjaks" aloud in an actual design discussion, I've been ruined.
03.10.2023 14:04 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0"Was Richard Nixon babygirl?", the greatest Victoria III design discussion in history, locked after 37 Slack pings.
26.09.2023 12:14 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I can't type at all when I'm tired, I keep entering dates in the interest group parameter and "petty bourgeoisie" in the ideology parameter.
25.09.2023 18:02 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0It would be very interesting to create a narrative/questline that pits the player's desire to not hurt a vulnerable/woobieish character's feelings against the fact that said character is getting into some fascist stuff.

17.09.2023 10:21 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I accidentally defined some Bolsheviks in Victoria III as female due to a copy/paste error, leading to a Lenin with spectacular, flowing locks.

22.08.2023 19:03 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I've picked up an interest in modifying the pop composition of interest groups dependent upon specific laws and pop conditions - eg, instead of farmers having a flat 50 attraction to Landowners, make it scaled by wealth. Very interested in seeing how this works.
22.08.2023 19:02 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The real lesson of Victoria III is that an Autocracy with a progressive Intelligentsia leader is the optimal form of government, and every other form is for cowards and losers.

12.08.2023 12:38 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I am so very pleased, and my wrist very much hurts.
12.08.2023 11:19 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 3 ๐ 0Hello, thank you for the list! Could I have an add?
09.08.2023 01:09 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I break it down into a formula and tend to fall into a rhythm while I do it. If I'm in the right headspace, I can't stop midway, I can't bring myself to leave, say, the blue highlights incomplete. And then I will leave it for a day and do the cloth, etc.

08.08.2023 15:15 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Intelligent use of primary sources in development of historical content is very important. Secondary sources are good, yes, but nothing can beat manul documentation from 1903.
