Are you supposed to have a master's degree in economics to understand this game? Literally nothing in it makes any sense to me, and I never had any trouble understanding any of the mechanics in the other PDX games.
A brain would be enough
>samefag makes his 5th vic3 threadyikes!
>>2156119Just click the cookie. That's it.
>>2156192The what?
>>2156217the cookie. click. the cookie. the cookie clicker. click the cookie.
>>2156119>To be fair, you have to have a high IQ to appreciate VICTORIA 3Rick and Morty redditor game.
You're supposed to be a socialist to get the game.
victoria is a game meant for schizoidsautist normies get filtered
>>2156119From what I've heard about this game, having a degree in economics would make you understand it *less*.
>>2156119More tech and better throughput means more turnover and profit. More turnover and profit mean higher taxes so long as you have tax cap. Laissez Faire gives you the most construction cap with least expenditure, you should always get it. Your focus should be on claiming natural resources which you lack, like oil and rubber, which everyone lacks late game (cause oil + rubber = cars and cars make infite cash late game, if you or your computer haven't given up by then) That's the entire economy. I guess the fact that furniture is made from wood doesn't need any further explaination.
>>2156119>Are you supposed to have a master's degree in economics to understand this game?More like a master's degree in Marxism-Leninism.
All the economics you need to understand is just supply and demand. Not enough shit to meet demand? Get more shit. Nobody buys your shit? Create demand for it.
>>2156119a degree in cookie clickers would be more appropriate
>>2156119no just the median IQ is all that's needed. sorry you had to find out this way
>>2156119you are supposed to have autism to understand it
>>2156217Click the cookieCookie the click>>2156665>where are the booms and the crashes?>where's the speculative economics? Why can't I sell tulips for ridiculous prices?>why is the stock market just a production method changing employment?>where are the recessions?>why are prices static?>why are all products equal?>why are all markets identical?>why is there no cultural barrier to trade?>why do traders only profit if products are crossing borders?>why isn't ice an industry?>why are inventions unrelated to market conditions?>why does every industry have an equal amount of owners and why is every business run the same way?>wait, people aren't buying this thing being sold and people aren't making this thing being bought???>I understand why the player is the spirit of the nation but why is the state doing everything?Maybe a modern degree would agree with the game
>>2156119vic 2 is the economic autism gamevic 3 is just clicking a cookie>Literally nothing in it makes any sense to meit's not supposed to, you're meant to treat the economy as if its a cookie clicking game, not an economic simulation
>>2164972wtf I love modern monetary theory now
>>2164972>>2164029why are we pretending victoria 2's economic simulation was any better. There weren't booms or busts simulated there either, and trade barely functioned.
>>2165098>why are we pretending victoria 2's economic simulation was any better. there's no need to pretend, victoria 2's economic simulator is better.
>>2165098It's because some people inform their opinions from the best memes. ISIS had objectively the best memes and see where that got them in the end.
>>2165098>There weren't booms or busts simulated there eitheryes there arebusts because of world wars that fuck up the global economy when provinces with large industrial bases get occupiedbooms because of new techs or colonysit beats victoria 3 by miles in this regard
>>2165185> busts because of world wars that fuck up the global economy when provinces with large industrial bases get occupiedThis happens in Victoria 3 also idiot.
>>2165197>y-yeah well victoria 2 doesn't simulate booms or busts either>victoria 2 does simulate it>yeah well victoria 3 also simulates booms and busts too!the cookie crumbles....
>>2165098Well, they were "simulated", primarily from the spike in demand from all the fort building, and a massive deflation spiral at the end.It's completely unlike the real world, but it's "modeled".
>>2156119
>>2156119nobody plays this game. Paradox only made it as a goof because trolls kept requesting, its an inside joke.
>>2156119On the contrary, having any notion of economics will make you worse at this game, due to how retarded it's modelling of economy is.
