Victoria 3 on launch. First game I turned Finland into the richest country on earth by capita is 30 years.

How does it compare to vic2? I still love vic2.

Victoria 3 is the game I keep tabs on the news feed for - it's getting better (mostly - slowing down economic growth is just far less fun) but not there yet... and the potential is amazing.

Never played Vicky but I'm a big fan of CK2 which I imagine ticks most of the same clunky paradox grand strategy that's horrible to learn but will suck up hundreds of wonderful hours of your life boxes?

Victoria 3 still isn't a good game, but I agree with it as my answer to OP's question. It scratches the same itch as Cookie Clicker while being about a million times more convoluted.
