Sphere of Influence, Feature Highlights: Foreign Investment and you, wealth is power | Victoria 3 

Oh Boy! Can't wait to create a capitalistic hellscape 😻

My dream of becoming a dictator is getting more realistic and I'm all for it

What happens if I conquer another state? Does the buildings have ownership in old country or become state owned ? Do i have to wage war again to nationalize the new buildings?

Big nice!

This is the single feature I’m most excited about

Now I want to create a county full of capitalists that relies solely on the over-seas investments 🤑

bro swear to god I'm so pumped up rn THIS is what Vic3 should've been from the beginning. I'll consider 1.7 the release build from now on

I’m glad they changed the way state owned companies work. Giving all the money to bureaucrats rather than the government itself was very dumb

can't wait for Great Power to invest into my country, only to see me nationalizing them.

if buildings have been built by the state, are those then state owned?

Excited to sell my government constructed buildings under a Laissez-Faire economic model. Time to invest in the global economy.

This gonna make the USA more realistic and powerful can’t wait.

now having protectorates in resource-rich provinces will be so useful damn

Very excited about the upcoming update and DLC !

i mean, probably you guys dont check comments but if its false, please add execution of historical events, including formation of germany,japan & mexico & ww1, playing as some minor country and seeing no germany united, or tokugawa in 1900s is really bothering as theres no challenge, same for the qing, when you play as qing theres no japanese empire rising to threaten and cause an challenge.

Can subject foreign invest into their Great Power /owner😂

I'm glad we're getting this "dividend efficiency" as a way to balance earlygame government-owned buildings instead of the bureacracy cost and decreased EoS announced in Dev Diary 110, the old way sounds like it would've been annoying bc we would've had at add extra goverment buildings to the construction loop to cover bureacracy costs before we could get our buildings sold and also just make us have to build more of them in general to combat the decreased EoS, whereas this method seems to keep government ownership from being broken in the earlygame without slowing down the construction loop. Interesting to see how good Command Economy will be, it seems like it could potentially be meta for lategame and I think it even makes sense for it to be so particularly as it's the last economy law you unlock.

So worker owned replaced cooperative ownership as "choose this option if your endgame is maxing out SoL"?

Question - if I build a new building, who owns it by default? Because when I saw that you could sell a building for 150k per level it made me wonder why building a nationalised level, and then selling it immediately, wouldn't be the most broken way to farm money.

Johnny Generalist tomorrow 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Can't wait to let the rich nations invest in my economy and then nationalize the industry afterwards

Now we just need national banks and currencies then we will be set

The bones are there for something awesome. Either it will rock hard at launch or it'll take a week and then the modders get it to rock hard. Either way, it's a win!

Now I can larp as european colonial powers doing cunty things to developing african states! Thanks paradox!

Can we get an auto privatize button for non laizze faire economies?

just take my money

I hope to see more improvements on the game, this looks good!

This is so promising. Really excited for this.

God I love this new update. So many possibilities. I am goona make so many videos on this :)

Wait hold on... just the profits? So if I invest in Tunisia's lead mines, I don't actually get the lead? Just the profits?

Is it me or is spheres of influence just looking perfect for a cold war mod

Finally the end of the beta testphase!

I hope the Sikh empire will have a better start now

Man, I love the Victoria franchise, but I love it most for it's economic and political focus.

Man, people are going to bank rolling the shit out of the world... I LOVE IT!

30euros?????for a dlc???goodbye Paradox,been nice knowing you

Beautiful update. I hope in the future that we'll also get an update that will enable stockpiles and allow us to hoard our production. So that we may use said stockpiles in times of need (like war where demands usually peak, and trade agreements get cancelled or ports blockaded) Stockpiles make sense to me and idk why don't have it.

Недочекаюся оновлення

so they organized the sphere of influence into a DLC? I'm disappointed SMH

Hi guys! My names Toby! I’m here to shill for a corporation selling you old features as DLC!

Alright paradox. Just bought all the dlc for this game. Please dont pull an imparator on it. Also personally id love a war dlc next. I miss micro so much

Wich Construction Sector will be used if a country A build something in a country B ?

The HUSTLE update.

can you soft annex or puppet indonesian minors by building industries there and get influence and dependency? will economic might basically remove puppeting infamy?

Goverment Dividends Efficiency tied to economic laws makes no sense.

Will this be added to the main game as well, or do I have to buy the DLC?

играя за Мадагаскар ии забивает своими стройками всю инфраструктуру и я просто не успеваю построить страну мечты так как денег у частников больше чем у меня получается игра сама в себя играет а я просто наблюдатель не так я себе представлял игру в которой население очень важно именно эта идея меня подкупила но на выходе невозможность распоряжаться деньгами инвесторов от лица руководителя страны (меня)делает из игры визуальную новеллу нажал максимальную скорость и компьютер сам всю эпоху проживет. Я сам хочу строить те производства которые вижу как перспективу будущего так например ии застроил все красителями а кушать в стране нечего и инфраструктура не позволяет мне строить. Ну это бред парни я буду играть на версии где была возможность планировать не торопясь самому рост и качество нации я не хочу воевать для этого есть HOI4 дайте мне вдумчивый медитативный экономический геймплей я хочу быть гигантом плантаций а не того что соизволит построить ии.Тем не менее спасибо вам за прекрасные игры рад жить с вами в одну эпоху у вас явно образование 90%))

Congratulations on finally getting this game out of pre-release and into 1.0 status. Unfortunate that you had to charge your playerbase so much money to get here.

I can't wait !

WHEN IS GUN SHORTAGES GOING TO AFFECT SOLDIER STATS

When I build a building in a foreign market, are the input and output goods staying in the foreign market or sourced/produced into mine?

Make Monaco and San Marino a seperate state for RP and realism reasons.

Time to put the jewish faith to good use

Does this mean i no longer have to and my puppets to build raw resource buildings now?

will u be able to get better trade steering, lower cost, lower tariffs by foreign investment into a puppet, protectorate or someone in your power block? can u for example get 90% of the benefits of some ports or farms in netherlands but not owning it

Pls Victoria 3 for xbox pls.

If you foreign invest buildings outside your country do you get their resource output?

It was supposed to have to make a patch and a DLC, not Victoria 3.5 hahahaha, thanks for such a great job

If I nationalized the industry of a foreign country, would that give them a casus belis against me or at least lower their relationship with me?

didnt like the background(the map) being blurred in the video

very excited :)

Ayyyyyyyyyy

beautiful new map style

you just know the meta will be state owned, A.I can never beat human excellence

These mechanics look really good, looking forward to trying them out

Why do I feel like Manor Houses will fry my computer? How much do you think will creating a completely new set of inter-state relationships affect the processor use of the game?

Im so happy about this

Command/or Mixed Economy enjoyers

Thank you for this superb video. I've been waiting for this feature since the first day of the game's release. I immediately felt the incredible potential of this game. When will we also be able to finance the debt of states through our finances (IMF style) or our population so that we no longer have to rely on debt from a fictitious lender ?

I was wondering how foreign investment and the profits/worker comp would work for cooperatives?

Why do people have such huge misconceptions about capitalism these days. How’s worker owned different from privately owned? Even a public company is partly owned by workers aka the board aka insiders

Where does the effing money go thats not extracted via gov dividend efficiency? Do they just delete large swaths of money from the system again? 😅

Is there still a difference between ownership by aristocrats vs capitalist?

So I'll finally be able to build rubber plantations in my colonies!?!?

Not gonna lie, but this is either goin' to make an economy or destroy an economy.

Hell yea! Can't wait to establish a free market utopia!

man i talked about this a year ago on the forum and was ridiculed for it

Will you be able to selectively nationalize from certain owners? For example, taking the privately owned levels while leaving the workforce ones? Can you sell building levels to the workforce? Can you privatize government owned foreign investments?

When will investments pool be fixed?

Can foreign investment happen via the investment pool or is it purely player led?

Sounds quite interesting

If you break your foreign investment agreement with a country, do the foreign-owned buildings in your country dissappear, do they become nationalised or do they become privately owned?

I swear each and every single Victoria 3 patch is just getting better and better

Que a Mão invisível do Mercado domine tudo

What happens to the resources that are produced by a building? If I have a state owned textile factory in another country - which market gains the clothes?

That's it, it's me!

longest title ever

Love it

Just a question, did you fix the AI?

Ok .. performance fixes?

Wait these are “new” things?

is the war system fixed? or is it still garbage?

criminal that you want to charge us so much for this DLC after all you did(nt) do for the game before. war system still sucks - getting force peaced out of a war is stupid and not having direct control of your armies is stupid.

I hope my current run will still work when the patch comes bcs am doing pretty hard achievement and I dought rng will let me do the same set up again,which would not make me be able to get the achievement

My body is so, so ready.

Bro do something for sikh empire ❤ love victoria 3

i love paying for basegame victoria 2 features

Waow putting mechanics in a dlc that the base game vic2 had like 16 years earlier is one hell of a thing to be proud of

Victoria 3 turning into stellaris with too much micromanaging to the point it is no longer a fun game but feel like a job.

Nice, it only took 2 years.
