The Absolute Beginner's Guide to Victoria 3 Economics - Belgium GIGACHAD Tutorial

Are you tired of being bad at Victoria 3? Check out this absolute beginner's guide to Victoria 3's economics which I've put together out of a recent stream I did as Belgium to try and demonstrate how money works in the game. Sometimes, Victoria 3 can feel hard to understand, which is mostly because the game does an awful job tutorializing itself, and because the UI and tooltips leave much to be desired. For that reason, I've taken it into my own hands to explain how the economics work.

This video is intended for people who have tried to play the game, but just don't have a grasp on why they can't grow their economy beyond certain levels, or who have trouble with capitalists spamming art and other such issues. It assumes that you at least know what Victoria 3 is, and that you know the controls (of which there aren't many).

This video only dives deeply into economics, but does feature some advice for other aspects of the game too.

I hope you enjoy this video, and if you do, leave a like and subscribe to see more. Thank you.
