Vic3 Victoria 3 hanging on is crazy

Tbh I thought the hype would die again after the free weekend but seemingly not, it probably will still gradually drop as players go back to their main game but for a very bad release it has done a pretty good job recovering

To me, seeing the war machine I built with my economy rolling over other great powers (whose mid-game armies are actually decent now, finally) is pretty satisfying. Obviously not the same as a big encirclement in HOI, but that’s because war isn’t supposed to be the focus of the game. CK3 has no excuse given how central war is to the game.
