Paradox really fell off wtf

Also they add like, zero worthwhile features for the price? Does every paradox game now have EUIV's DLC policy? It seems like they're really trying to rope people into their shitty DLC subscriptions.

    Frankly, out of the Vicky 3 DLCs that are out, none of them are really necessary. Unless you want more flavor for France and/or Brazil. One of the DLCs is literally just cosmetic. In simple terms, I wouldn't recommend any of the DLCs unless you play a ton of Vicky and specifically want to play multiple runs as France and Brazil.

    The only dlc that is gonna be really interesting is the upcoming Spheres of Influnece expansion. How impactful or good it will be remains to be seen though.

    EDIT. There are paradox games where you need multiple dlcs. Vicky 3 is not one of them ATM. Just play it with some mods and you are good to go.

        because sometimes they can put new and important features behind a dlc paywall, like adding the entire system of intelligence agencies behind a dlc paywall for a game about the second world war :))))))

        I think they're obligation DLCs made at low cost to fulfill the deluxe edition promise of "3 free DLCs" or whatever. They did the same with CK3.

        From a production standpoint it probably makes sense to have some smaller DLCs just after release because most of the team needs to work on patching large release issues.

        As for the price, it's just greed.
