Flashback
Victoria 3 is a medieval strategy game that was released on October 25, 2022. The game generally received positive reviews on Steam and 84 out of 100 points on Metacritic from critics, but users gave it only 4.6 out of 10 points. And this is the case when players strongly disagreed in their opinions: for some it is too simple and meaningless, and for some it is too hard, and for some it is a masterpiece. It seems that to understand the truth, you have to play it yourself.
