Out of curiosity, how does it compare to Vicky 2? That was my first Paradox game.
It’s good, but definitely pirate it. Paradox has become incredibly scummy. I didn’t mind their model when the additions where actually cool and had depth, now they just release unfinished games and expect us to buy the dlc to actually get what it should have released with. CK3 is particularly egregious on this front.
i still prefer victoria 2 but victoria 3 is more functional and modern. it's definitely not worth its price tag you better shiver your timbers.
The thing I always like about the later generations of Paradox games is how accessible the modding community is. There was a bit of a hassle when trying to install mods to Victoria 2 vs later using the workshop for EU4.
interestingly if you go the unofficial route older games will be much easier to mod rather than newer games. most mod files are locked behind workshops and if the developer is not providing another alternative they would be hard to get, although vic 2 is a different case since its stability with mods is atrocious on my system.
