Hey Alex Back then Victoria was not the capital of BC it was in fact New Westminster if you have ever been there. There was a great fire and the capital was moved.

8:04 It's funny how hard it is for him to pronounce Saxe-Corburg-Gotha considering that's the original name of the current British monarchy, before WW1 where George V changed it to Windsor as he believed Saxe-Corburg-Gotha was to German sounding
6:56 Fort Victoria was built in 1843 (3 years away from this point), and by 1858 (just before the B.C. gold rush, the settlement only had around 300 people.
Unfortunately the decentralised nations aren't playable atm so I think your only option would be the Indian territory. The United tribes in NZ would be super cool to see though
@@suciured7066 i heard he wants some more experience with it before making videos about it. I guess crazy shananigans are hard when you have no clue how the game works
One thing I'd love to see is you either stabilize Austria or thrive as a HRE minor nation that could be allied to a major,just staying as an independent nation
I would like to see you play as one of the future parts of Canada. I think it would be cool to see what bits of history they include like if they have the Upper and Lower Canada rebellions or the read river rebellion, see how they handle events like confederation, or how places like the Hudson Bay Company or the Oregon Country/Columbia district work.
As someone who enjoys crushing the great powers, the British pickle seems quite a juicy one for me. Would have loved to see them fall out of great powers list entirely.
its honestly kinda dumb comparing current vic 2 with vic 3 as vic 3 just came out and i have high doubts vic 2 without all the updates and all the dlcs was as amazing either out the gate =/
You should do some form of British empire playthrough and really dive into creating a hyper efficient economy/market as well as expanding the empire and leaving other nations in the dust
An interesting challenge I could imagine, might be extremely difficult, would be playing one of the various nations likely to be colonized and trying to defend against one of the great powers as long as you can. Like either one of the numerous African powers or one of the Native American ones idk. Could be fun, could be extremely frustrating and disheartening and impossible instead. Only one way to find out.
@@spooderpoog Can’t say i didn’t see it coming but it is a shame. Makes me feel more validated not buying into paradox’ bullshit until their stuff is on heavy heavy discount
It would be awesome if you could play as Mexico and “Manifest Destiny” the rest of North America or play as the US and conquer the whole of the Americas.
Cool idea for a vid, just curious why AI only? I know that one guy made his whole YT channel around it but stopped (Drew?) EDIT: saw the vid and ya Drew Durnill that's the one
please don't let that be the beginning of the decline into meme reactions and country ball videos. I mean - we got Mr. Spherical out of it but still sad.
*I'm taking up the mantle of Drew*
Yes
Moment
Ong Fr
Yessss
Does Drew know? :p
Hey Alex Back then Victoria was not the capital of BC it was in fact New Westminster if you have ever been there. There was a great fire and the capital was moved.
That is very correct! That slipped my mind during recording. I've been to New West SO many times haha
Technically before New West the capital was in Langley! The old Fort is pretty cool to check out
When there isn't any turmoil in France, you know you are in the multiverse.
Spoilers
While I do plan on waiting at least a few months before “buying in”, this is looking pretty good already.
Im waiting for a sale, gotta get those good deals 💵
@@nikolozgilles Oh yeah!
The AI is definitely.. questionable in Vic 3 atm :P However, I formed Byzantium with only minor restarting, so I'm happy!
I always save before I do any wars or join customs unions as greece, since both are risky endeavors

8:00 "Sax..Gothgaburg-Gothka" I wouldn't disrespect the queens family like that.
Personally I think an attempt at playing a Native American nation would be really cool to see
Unfortunately the decentralised nations aren't playable atm so I think your only option would be the Indian territory. The United tribes in NZ would be super cool to see though
Comanche is a good choice.
Good to see someone watching paradox games again! Exactly what we need.
weakling drew
It's not a Rambler video if the wolrd hasn't imploded
22:19 pov your country has 3 prime Ministers in under 4 months
You should try to get all the Spanish colonies back as Spain. Or lead japan out of isolationism. That would be fun to see in this game I think.
Can’t wait for Isorrow to play around this Victoria III’s AI.
He's already said he's tried it and he's not planning to make any videos on it
@@Spoiscos why?
@@suciured7066 i heard he wants some more experience with it before making videos about it. I guess crazy shananigans are hard when you have no clue how the game works
@@suciured7066 he made a video today about it. He just doesn't like the state it is in right now and has some valid criticisms.
Alex activated Drew Durnil mode.

Alex the rambler has rambled his way into victoria 3!

"It's 1874, not 2022"
Sheesh...
19:18 French Revolution 2.0
Radical Austria: "FUCK THE COFFEE HOUSES!"
Huh, there was no American Civil War and we had like 3 British ones. Hell of an Alt history.
Vicky 3 is definitely retelling Vicky 2's launch state: fifty million revolts and a jigsaw puzzle border gore.
its honestly kinda dumb comparing current vic 2 with vic 3 as vic 3 just came out and i have high doubts vic 2 without all the updates and all the dlcs was as amazing either out the gate =/
@@12thArchknight Yes; that is what I said.
@@walkseva yeah i know im just agreeing
Id love to see you play Persia in an attempt to restore the empire!
Not sure if it's possible, but play the UK, go to diplomacy, release and play as Newfoundland, and try to form Canada.
A scenario I’ve always wondered about is the annexation of Alaska from Russia by Canada, about the time of the Japan - Russia war.
10:34 someone show Rishi! All he needs to do is invade the Netherlands to sort out the economy!
Let's go Alex the rambler Victoria 3 content
the last pop up showed poles emigrating to my province
lol
For a challenge try defeating Britain as China during the Opium War
Please Play as Hamburg. That would be a good challenge.
As someone who lives in the state of "Piratini", as known as Rio Grande do Sul, I can say that, god we should have won the Ragamuffin War...
I heard a fart at 2:25 😂
I wouldnt be surprised if Tannu Tuva [sponsered by Greggs] becomes a proper nation by the time of WW1 :p
7:36 wait until he finds out this happened historically
vancouver seems like a better capital for bc maybe im wrong but victoria is still great too
Finally! Someone who watches paradox games. Drew needs to step up his game. I wonder why he stopped?
I enjoy this as much as I enjoy watch your hoi4 videos very nice
Wow it's so new, it doesn't cost $10 Quintilian for the full game with dlcs
But, as always, it's an unfinished game at the release.
You should do some form of British empire playthrough and really dive into creating a hyper efficient economy/market as well as expanding the empire and leaving other nations in the dust
Prusso-German alliance with Russia. What Bismarck would do. I've always wondered about the 'Holy Alliance'.
Playing a soon to be colonised nation and colonising their coloniser would be cool (and presumably very hard)
I’m working from home today since I got a new tv delivered and currently downloading the game now to my PC
SPOILER JOKE:
FitzJames 3 looks really good!
I look forward to you actually playing the game after we've walked through this observation
What if you tried to turn America into a monarchy in Victoria 3
YES.
Here is a challenge, try to form Romania, with any of those 2 small starting states
I hope someone turns Alex wagging his finger and saying "unification" into a gif. 🤣
I hope alex picks up the mantel of suleiman the great
I'm hyped for all the revolutions, at least until I start playing...
Anarchocommuneomonarchist Canada as biggest Economy game when?
I love that in this timeline the most stable part of the world turned out to be the US.
For your first challenge. Go for an independent Lower Canada and see if you can turn Quebec into a superpower.
Play as Scotland, Wales, or Ireland and have a more productive economy than the UK? #luxury goods
Victoria 3 - 1 next . We need the backstoryyyyy
this is more like victoria 0.5 with how half the game is missing.
Try Scenario Stalingrad and Scenario Overlord out in a few days
You should drink Yorkshire Tea. Far better drink 👍🏻
Play as the Netherlands, form the Benelux and create an Imperial Benelux
An interesting challenge I could imagine, might be extremely difficult, would be playing one of the various nations likely to be colonized and trying to defend against one of the great powers as long as you can. Like either one of the numerous African powers or one of the Native American ones idk.
Could be fun, could be extremely frustrating and disheartening and impossible instead. Only one way to find out.
LOL at your name.
It’s beautiful pure nightmare fuel. I love it. I love that we made the ai some deliberately warped frankenstein.
Was thinking of buying the game before i saw this video. Now… im not so sure
It's an absolute dumpster fire
@@spooderpoog Can’t say i didn’t see it coming but it is a shame. Makes me feel more validated not buying into paradox’ bullshit until their stuff is on heavy heavy discount
There was a civil war in the kingdom of the 2 Sicilies. Does that make it the war of the four Sicilies?
Here is a challenge: revive PLC
I would like to see Krakow playthrough.
It would be awesome if you could play as Mexico and “Manifest Destiny” the rest of North America or play as the US and conquer the whole of the Americas.
These new maps look so amazing compared to the older ones like EU4 and HOI
They might have to do something about those revolts. It is nice that civil wars have become meaningful, but damn ... that is a lot of rebels.
After the lack on gold sigismund will have to get Von dem Knese and work the corner 😂
6:58 it didn't exist yet it was created in 1843, prolly named after the queen.
Yay alex upload
looking forward to some Victoria 3 disaster saves
I am commenting because Alex told me to like and comment in the live chat
Just imagine, some higher being doing this to our world and stream it to their higher being share video platform.
20:30 prussia-Denmark war is historical
Victoria 3 is laready great. its victoria 2 with an interface! Can it be better? yes,will paradox make us pay for it to be better yes :(
@Deadpoppin no it does not
unite Italy! because i sat there for 50 years without able to war anyone without a major fighting me
I'd be interested to see Rambler's attempt at reforming Gran Columbia and trying to replace the US as the new world's superpower.
You should play British Colombia as a "challenge"
I WANNA SEE ALEX PROVE CAS IS KING IN VICTORIA 3
I didn't know it was out. Great. Now to wait\survive another 3-5 years before the game is actually playable.
"This is 1874 - not 2022!"
Can you play as Bohemia if it can be released please?
This is giving me old Drew Durnil vibe
Anyone know how he can view all the country’s details while still being in observer mode?
when the most stable parts of the world are south america and the balkans, you know youve got a serious problem
Cool idea for a vid, just curious why AI only? I know that one guy made his whole YT channel around it but stopped (Drew?)
EDIT: saw the vid and ya Drew Durnill that's the one
I hadn't learnt the game enough when I recorded this lol
@@AlextheRambler good luck learning it! I still am trying to learn Vic2 😆🤣
please don't let that be the beginning of the decline into meme reactions and country ball videos. I mean - we got Mr. Spherical out of it but still sad.
Play as a radical Abolitionist USA, if you can have John Brown as a Leader. (He was more radical than Lincoln)
JAN MAYAN (SPIFFING BRIT VIDEO IDEA)
I hope they fix the border gore, I'm going to make a mod to fix that
I would love if you could try to play Denmark
That’s a terrifying statement you were rooting for radical Austria nothing bad could happen right.
i have a chalange,try to reunite romania by peacefully reuniting w moldovia and then carving up the great powers!
I believe it’s a given that you need to conquer the world as Britain
I for one support Constantine FitzJames
As France or Germany, force the UK into your customs union: Reverse Brexit
IS ALEX THE NEW HOI SOY BOI???
The perfect timeline
